From: OLIVER MANETI <lamba_sambudu@yahoo.com> Reply-to: <olivermaneti@hotmail.it> Subject: re:re:re:reply Date: Sun, 14 Dec 2008 01.59.30 +0100 (Sat, 18:00 EST)
MR. OLIVER MANETI olivermaneti@yahoo.it olivermaneti@hotmail.it
STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL.
You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you don't
know me personally. I am Mr. Oliver Maneti ,the first son of Late David Maneti,who was mudered in a land dispute in Zimbabwe.I got your contact through an internet trade journal here in Italy and I decided to contact you as a matter of fact.I did not know your person but I relied on faith to see me through.Before the death of my father,he had the sum of US$10Million (Ten Million United States Dollars),in his Escrow Account with the Reserve Bank Of South Africa (SARB ) in South Africa,as if he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe.
This fund was meant for the purchase of new machinery and
agro-chemicals for the new farms in Swaziland. This land problem came when our President Robert Mugabe introduced a new land act "Modi Operadus" reform which wholly affected the rich white farmers and some black farmers as well.A lot of people were killed because of this land reformed "Act" which my late father was one of the victims. Based on this,my family were scattered. I am staying here in Italy as a refugee while my mother and my younger sisters are staying in South Africa as refugees.We decided to contact you to assist us in transfering this money to your country for investment.The monetary/investment Law of South Africa and Italy prohibit refugees(assylum seekers) to run bank accounts or be involved in any business transaction/investment.It is on this that we contacted you hoping that you will assist us with the name of God.
As the only son,I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a
genuine and an honest person who will assist us in transfering this fund out of South Africa without the knowledge of my country (Zimbabwe)government who are bent on taking everything that my late father had after confiscating all his farm lands and investment in Zimbabwe.We are left with nothing here. For your kind assistance my Mother and I are offering you 30% of the fund after the succesful transfer of the fund to your account.5% will be set aside for any expenses that might result in the process of this transaction,while the remaining 65% will be for my family which will be used for investment in your country under your direction as we don't know anything about investment.
Contact me with the above e-mail if this proposal is of interest to
you, while I implore you to maintain absolute confidentiality required in this transaction.
Yours truly, Mr.Oliver Maneti. (For the Family)

This is just a small sampling of the
many hundreds of advance fee fraud e-mails received each day here at
419BAITER
headquarters. It is 100% pure B.S. Purity Guaranteed!
There are many different types of 419 scam (examples)
but they all promise you something (fortune, job with salary /
commision,
low-interest loan, lottery prize,
cheap gold dust / diamonds,
work visa, etc.) in return
for a small 'fee' or some kind of remittance. Of course, there is no
fortune, no job, no loan, no prize to be had. It's just a ploy to get
you to
willingly send them money.

section.

NOTE
TO SPAMMERS:
My scam e-mail filtering system is pretty good but it isn't perfect.
Occasionally a regular spam e-mail will get mistakenly published here as
a
419 scam. This is inadvertent. If you are a spammer and you don't wish
to have your crap mistakenly published on this website as an
advance fee
scam, the solution is
simple. Don't mail me your crap.
