Subject: Investment
It is my pleasure to write you this mail. I am writing you from Accra-Ghana
in west Africa. I got your contact from journalist while searching for a
foreign partner and contact. I am 23 years old and a Sierra Leonia national.
I am looking for an overseas business partner/investor to assist me move
and invest US$22million,been money which I inherited from my late father.
Rebel fighters in Sierra Leone who are fighting for control of diamond mines
killed my late father. My late father was a diamond miner/merchant and a
senior chief.
He was killed together with all members of my family including my brothers,
sisters and mother. As a local diamond miner my father was not involved in
diamond export but sell his diamond to foreign merchants who make exports.
As a result of increasing rebel attacks and war in my country, he moved
all his money and other valuables out of my country to Accra- Ghana for
safe keeping in a safe keeping company. I am the only surviving member of
my family and have inherited the money another valuables. I am now the
beneficiary of my father wealth and my plan now is to move all the money
out of here to overseas and invest it there, because I do not wish to invest
the money here in Africa, because of the unstable political and economic
situation in Africa.
There are problems making it difficult for me to move the money overseas
on my own alone.
The problems are as follows: I am under aged just twenty three years old,
have never been to overseas before and have no business or private contact
overseas, have not get the required business/banking experience and other
logistic reasons to handle the big fund alone.
These are the reasons why I need a TRUSTWORTHY and RELIABLE PERSON who will
come to ACCRA-GHANA, West Africa here to help me. If you can render your
total support to me by coming here to assisting me to move this fund/myself
to your country. I will offer you best of how much you will want me to give
you, as you will also help me to invest the remaining in any viable and
lucrative business in your company/country.
My telephone number is+233-20-8142916,or email my address. Looking forward
to your reply. God bless you.
Yours Sincerely,
MICHAEL SHADOL.

URGENT ASSISTANCE
YOU MAY BE SURPRISE TO RECEIVE THIS LETTER FROM ME SINCE YOU DO NOT KNOW ME
PERSONALLY. THE PURPOSE OF MY INTRODUCTION IS THAT I AM MR ADA JAMES THE
FIRST SON OF DR. ADA KING WHO WAS RECENTLY MURDERED IN THE LAND DISPUTE IN
ZIMBABWE. I WAS FURNISH WITH VIABLE INFORMATION FROM THE WORLD TRADE CENTRE
HERE IN AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS AND DECIDED TO WRITE YOU.
BEFORE THE DEATH OF MY FATHER, HE HAD TAKEN ME TO JOHANESBURG TO DEPOSITE
THE SUM OF FIFTEEN.FIVE MILLION UNITED STATE DOLLARS (US$15.500.00) IN A
SECURITY COMPANY THAT MOVE THIS MONEY DIPLOMATICALY TO THE NETHERLANDS, AS
IF HE FORESAW THE LOOMING DANGER IN ZIMBABWE. THIS MONEY WAS DEPOSITED IN A
BOX AS DIPLOMATIC ITEMS OF HIGH VALUE TO REDUCE THE COST OF
TRANSPORTATIONAND TO AVOID MUCH DEMURAGE FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY. THIS
AMOUNT WAS MEANT FOR THE PURCHASE OF NEW MACHINES AND CHEMICALS FOR FARMS
AND ESTABLISHMENT OF NEW FARM IN SWAZILAND.
THIS LAND PROBLEM CAME WHEN ZIMBABWE PRESIDENT MR. ROBERT MUGABE,
INTRODUCED A NEW LAND RESOLUTION THAT WHOLLY AFFECTED RICH FARMERS MAINLY
WHITE AND SOME FEW BLACK FARMERS. THIS RESULTED TO THE KILLING AND MOB
ACTION BY ZIMBABWE WAR VETERANS AND SOME LUNATICS IN THE SOCIETY.INFACT A
LOT OF PEOPLE WERE KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS LAND REFORMED PROGRAM WHICH MY
FATHER WAS ONE OF THE VICTIMS.
IT IS AGAINST THIS BACKGROUND THAT I AM CURRENTLY STAYING IN AMSTERDAM AS
A REFUGEE AND TO SEEK FOR A TRUST WORTHY INDIVIDUAL/FIRM TO ADVICE ME IN
MAKING THE RIGHTFULL INVESTMENT AS WELL AS TO PROVIDE FOREIGN ACCOUNT(S)
WHERE THE FUNDS WILL BE LODGE INTO. SINCE THE LAW OF THE NETHERLANDS
PROHIBIT A REFUGEE (ASYLUM SEEKER) TO OPEN ACCOUNT OR TO BE INVOLVED IN ANY
FINACIAL TRANSACTION. AS THE ELDEST SON OF MY FATHER, I AM SADDLED WITH THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF SEEKING A GENUINE FOREIGN ACCOUNT WHERE THIS MONEY COULD
BE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF MY GOVERNMENT WHO ARE BENT ON
TAKING EVERYTHING WE HAVE GOT. I AM FACED WITH THE DILEMA OF INVESTING THIS
AMOUNT OF MONEY IN THE NETHERLANDS FOR THE FEAR OF GOING THROUGH THE SAME
EXPERIENCE IN FUTURE SINCE BOTH COUNTRIES HAVE SIMILAR HISTORY. MOREOVER,
THE NETHERLANDS FOREIGN EXCHANGE POLICY DOES NOT ALLOW SUCH INVESTMENT FROM
ASYLUM SEEKERS.
AS REGARDS YOUR COMMISSION/REMUNERATION, I AND MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY HAVE
DECIDED TO OFFER YOU 25% OF THE TOTAL SUM IMMIDIATELY AFTER WE CLEARED THE
CONSIGNMENT FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY VAULT AND ALSO SET ASIDE 5% FOR ALL
YOUR EXPENSES (E. I TELEPHONE BILLS, TRAVELLING EXPENSES, HOTEL BILLS AND
OTHER MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES).
NOTE: I SHALL COMMIT HALF OF MY SHARE OF THE TOTAL SUM INTO A JOINT VENTURE
PROJECT PREFERABLY IN THE PURCHASE OF REAL ESTATE OR OTHER PROFITABLE
BUSINESS VENTURE. BE ASSURED THAT YOU STAND NO RISK OF ANY KIND. AS SOON AS
I GET YOUR CONSENT, I WILL FURNISH YOU WITH THE DETAILS AND CONTACT OF THE
SECURITY COMPANY AND A FACE TO FACE MEETING WILL BE ARRANGE IN ORDER TO
KNOW EACH OTHER BETTER.
PLEASE. CONTACT ME WITH THE ABOVE TELEPHONE NUMBER OR E-MAIL ADDRESS, WHILE
I IMPLORE YOU TO MAINTAIN THE ABSOLUTE SECRECY REQUIRED IN THIS
TRANSACTION.

Subject: Treat as urgent
Dear Friend,
I am Mr Jimoh Lawal, Bank Manager of ORIENT BANK OF NIGERIA, Lagos Branch.
I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you and it
is carefully explained for your understanding as follows.
On June 6 1998, an American oil consultant/contractor with the Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Barry Kelly made a numbered time account
(Fixed)deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00
(Twenty-five Million United States Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity,
I sent a routine notification to his forwarding
address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally
we discovered from his contract employers, Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation that Mr. Barry Kelly has since died from an automobile
accident.
On further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and
all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made
further investigation and discovered that Mr. Barry Kelly did not
declare any next of kin in all his official documents, including his Bank
Deposit paperwork. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank
and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of
each year. No one will come forward to claim it. According to the Nigerian
Law, at the expiration of 5(five) years, the money will revert to the
ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to
stand in as the next of kin to Mr.Barry Kelly so that the fruits of this
old man's labour will not get into the hands of some undeserving and corrupt
officials.
This is simple, I will like you to provide me immediately with the following;
your full names, date and place of birth and complete address with
confidential telephone and fax numbers so that the attorney will prepare
the necessary documents and affidavits, which will put you in place as the
next of kin. We shall employ the services of two attorneys for drafting and
notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter of
probate/administration in your favor for the transfer.
A bank account in any part of the world, which you would provide, will
then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next
of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the
ratio of 60% for me and 40% for you.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will
be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees
the successful execution of this transaction.
If you are interested, Upon your response, I shall then provide you with
more details and relevant documents that will help you understand.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction
would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your
assistance to invest my share in your country. Awaiting your urgent reply
via e-mail.
Thanks and regards
Jimoh Lawal

Subject: TREAT AS CONFIDENTIAL
From: Muhammed Abacha
I wish to introduce myself to you and the
reason for my reaching out to you.I am
Muhammed Abacha the the son of the late
military head of state General Sani Abacha
who died mysteriously on the 8th of June 1998.
Following the death of my father Gen. Sani
Abacha,elections were successfully held in
the country and a civilian administration
was sworn into power with the assistance
of the American Government under the leadership
of President Clinton. With the advent of
the new Democratic Administration, a decision
was taken by the new president of Nigeria,
Olusegun Obasanjo to probe and ultimately
prosecute all past military officers and
their cohorts that served in very strategic
capacities in the last military regime of
my father.I was among those singled out to
to be punished after a makeshift trial,for
the supposed deeds of my dad,ever since I
have been in detention(the past 3 years).
On monday the 24 September 2002,I was
released,on the condition that I will release
the rest of my fathers money in my care,to the
tune of $I.6b,which i agreed.
Now I have been released but kept under
severe house arrest,I had amassed monies
running into hundreds of millions of
dollars stashed in various private foreign
accounts around the world,most of wish have
been frozen.
Presently, I am confined under house arrest
after my recent release from detention and I
am now constrained into seeking for this
assistance today because I cannot afford to
let this goverment know that I still have
funds stashed away.
Shortly, before my detention I hurriedly
deposited the sum of USD105 million with
a security deposit firm for safekeeping,hence
my seeking your assistance to receive
this fund.
I have since had this amount stashed away in
a private security company in Spain. I cannot
send this money to any of my Bank Account
abroad for reasons mentioned earlier.
I hereby seek your assistance in moving and
securing this money in your account abroad.
I will adequately compensate you with 15%
of the total sum for your assistance and
co-operation with me to move this fund
to your account for safe keeping where I
can easily utilise it.
The present administration has beamed their
search light on any body remotely related
to me and my family and you strongly
know for certain that I am under surveillance
and I cannot operate any of my bank accounts
any more, due to their being frozen.
I intend to safe guard and invest this amount
of money abroad, but with a reliable foreign
business partner so that we can invest the funds in
doing business in your country. That is why I am
soliciting your assistance and cooperation as
regards this business.Arrangements are being
concluded with the Security Company which has
branches in Europe to receive the money in cash.
I cannot tell the full story of my predicament
on this letter. However you can get more
information by checking the following web
links.

Please note that I have a relocation plans for
me and my family immediately you have cleared
and received this funds in your account.
Please indicate your willingness to assist me by
sending to me the following information, your
company name and address,your private phone
and fax numbers so that I can contact you and
commence the transaction in earnest.
I am waiting to hear from you very soon.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL
ATTN: PRESIDENT/CEO,
My name is DOTUN MANUEL (MNIM). , a member of the Presidential
Task Force on Oil Spillage Clean-up. Early last year
there was a major oil spillage in the Niger Delta
Region of Nigeria which rendered over 70% of the
communities homeless.The contract was handled by a
foreign firm but because of the huge monetary profit
we envisaged we decided to over-invoice the contract
sum.
Now the contract has been completed and the original
contractor has since been paid,but the contract
balance of US$38 million,which resulted from the over
invoiced contract sum that has been left in a suspense
account with the CENTRAL BANK of NIGERIA,is what me
and my partners are planning to take out of the
country for ourselves.The problem is as government
officials,we are not suppose to own fat bank
accounts,talk less of having foreign ones.
To this end, we are soliciting your assistance as a
foreign partner who can assist us and receive this
amount into your account. We are ready to share this
money with you on the basis of participation. We also
have plans to invest part of this money in any viable
business in your country under your care,as we are
nearing our retirement age.
In any case, I received a reference of you/organization
from the Nigeria Chambers of Commerce
and Industry 'Foreign Trade Division' as a reputable
organ that can assist us on this transaction. Please
if you accept my proposal do not hesitate to send me a
fax on 234 1 759 0379 or send me an e-mail on:
manuel.dotun@caramail.com, so that I can provide you with
the basic procedures for the release of the fund.
It does not matter whether you or your company does
contract project of the nature described here, the
assumption is that you won a major contract and
subcontracted it to another company, more often than
not, big trading companies or individuals of unrelated
field win major contracts here in Nigeria and
subcontracts same to more specialized firms for
execution.
BENEFIT: For providing the account where we shall
remit this money, you will be entitled to 25% of the
entire funds, 70% will be for me and my partners,while
5% has been set aside to cover any expenses that may
be incurred by both parties during this transaction,
both local and international.
Please I enjoin you to handle this transaction with
utmost degree of maturity and confidentiality because
I am still in active government service with the
"NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION". If I
receive your response on time, this whole transaction
could be accomplished within the shortest possible
time based on your interest and determination,since
the money is already in transit.
Please, try to call me up to confirm the receipt of
your e-mail.The lines may be busy,but keep
trying till you get through.
Yours faithfully,
DOTUN MANUEL (MNIM).

Dear friend,
I am Yank Domas,The son of former minister of finance (Domas Makabo)
of the Republic of Sierra-Leone West Africa based on the information I
gathered from your chamber of commerce and industry on your credibility, I
decide to contact for the assistance.
Regarding my zeal toward foreign investment and security for my life
and possession, I therefore write to you a break down of this proposal.
My father died when a group of rebel soldier led by Sir Foday Sankoh
overthrown Government of sierra-Leone forcing the president out of power and
killing many members of the cabinet and minister including my own father.
When it become apparently obvious that the country no longer safe for the
citizens due to the political war and massive killing and destruction of
properties, I decided to move to Holland with a treasure containing the
sum of US$12.500.000.00(twelve million five hundred thousand united state
dollars) through a diplomatic means, this fund is the last tangible money
my father left behind before his death.
The said amount is presently in Holland (The Netherlands) where I am
currently seeking political asylum. While the consignment containing the
fund is in the custody of the diplomatic courier company they are not aware
of the content as it was deposited as personal effect and artifact.
I am seeking for partner who will serve as a the guardian of this fund
with whom I could plan the best way to move this money out of Holland for
investment which is my main purpose of contacting you.
Thus I decided to offer you 20% of the total money for assisting me to
actualize this project while 10% of the money has been set aside to offset
any incidental expenses that might incurred during the course of this funds
and the balance 70%shall be for me and my family which shall be invested
in your country. And are will visit you country soonest in order to inquire
areas of possible business investment. I shall be sincerely glad if my
request is rendered.
Thank you
God bless you

Dear Sir,
I am Miss Folade Musa, first daughter of detained
Chief of Military Tactics with the Government of
Senegal. My father has been in custody for over 18
months and we are currently on exile in another
African country which I can't disclose to you yet (for
security reasons).
I have a direct business proposal which I believe
would be of interest to you. My father has left with
us (me and my two younger brothers aged 13 & 15) with
a box of money in dollars valued at slightly over
$21.5m U.S. (Twenty-One million, five hundred thousand
dollars). I intend to send this box over to Europe
because of security risks here and our frequent
movement for fear of being captured.
I would appreciate it if you can help me clear this
box from Diplomatic Courier Services ( the company I
intend to use)and pay it into reliable accounts. Also,
on clearing these funds if you can help us secure
visas/passports to enable usmove away from here to
anywhere safe, I am ready to part with 20% of the
funds for you.
There is nothing complicated about this and I can
invite you to inspect the funds before they are moved
to Europe or send you pictures via this e-mail
address.
I look forward to your kind and urgent response.
Yours Sincerely,
Folade Musa

Attn:
Dear Sir,
MISS WORLD BEAUTY PAGEANT.
Good day. I am Dr. Wale Smith, the commissioner of the Nigerian Tourism
Development Corporation[NTDC], an affiliate of
the Federal Ministry Of Culture and Tourism. In the year 2001 huge sum of
money running into millions of United States
Dollars was budgeted by my government for the successful hosting of the
Miss world beauty pageant for the year 2002,
which eventually was held in Alexandra Palace London.The contest
originally scheduled for Nigeria was mired in
controversy. It sparked off bloody riots in a section of the country
forcing the organiser to shift the venue of the event to
London .However,before the shift, Cross River State Nigeria hosted the 92
beauty queen during the first stage of the
competition. Miss Turkey, AZRA AKIN was eventually crowned the Winner in
London.
However, in my capacity as the Commisioner of the Nigeria Tourism
Development Corporation, and a member of both local
organizing committee (LOC) , my colleagues and I in sensitive positions
were able to influence the award of the contract,
for the supply and installation of some of the equipment that where
suppose to have been used for the contest.
The contractor who handled these projects agreed to give us 10% of the
total contract sum, if we were able to influence
the award of the contract in their favour. Other foreign firms bided for
this same contract, but we were able to influence the
board to award the contract to the firm we had this agreement with.
This contract was successfully executed by the firm ,and they have been
paid 90% of their total contract sum, remaining
the balance of 10% which we never wanted them to collect on our behalf
because of the fear that they might not fulfil their
promise. It is pertinent to note that, the remaining balance of Eight
million,seven hundred thousand united states dollars
(US$8,700,000.00) is lying in the suspense account of the First Chartered
Bank Lagos, ready for transfer into an oversea
account.
I have been unanimously mandated to seek for an honest and trustworthy
foreign partner who will assist in ensuring the
successful transfer of the above sum of money into his Personal/Company
account since the Nigerian Code of Conduct
Bureau does not permit us to operate a foreign account as public servants.
On the successful remittance of the fund (US
$8,700,000.00) into your nominated account, for your kind assistance you
will be adequately compensated.
Be rest assured that, the modalities and logistics towards the successful
transfer of this fund have been worked out. All we
require from you is your cooperation. This transaction is 100% risk free.
We kindly request that you accord it the highest
level of secrecy it deserves. Your swift response will be highly
appreciated and kindly provide your phone and fax number
for further information. Upon your acknowledgement of this proposal, I
will forward to you the detailed procedure for this
transaction.
Note that, this transaction is legal and free from all sorts of risk and
trouble. It does not contravene the laws of my country
nor any International laws; hence the whole approval for the transfer will
be official and legally processed. This transaction
will be concluded within five (5) working days if we follow it up and give
the serious attention it deserves.
Awaiting your prompt response.

our high profile customers who died along with his
entire family in 1988 Lockerbie Pan American
Airline plane crash.Ever since we got information
about his death,we have been expecting his next of kin
to come over and claim his money because we cannot
release it unless somebody applied for it in the
person of next of kin or relation to the deceased as
stipulated in our banking rules and
regulations,but,unfortunately till date of writting
this mail to you,nobody has come forward to claim the
money.
It is also a law here that any unclaimed funds for 14
years shall be recalled back to the treasury and our
government takes it as their funds.

in properties and other profitable investments in your
country.

sum to you,5% has been set aside for the expenses to

parties concerned and the remaining 87% shall be for
my colleagues and I.
In support of the aforementioned, you are urged to
reply this letter indicating your readiness and
interest to participate in this project. After your

Subject: SOLICITING FOR A BUSINESS/PARTNERSHIP.
PRINCE GAIUS OBASEKI (JR),
Foreign Liaison Office,
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC),
Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Fax: +31-617-648-571.
Dear Sir,
I am an accountant with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and I am also a member of the Nigerian contract award and monitoring committee in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation. I am also on a special diplomatic duty in the Nigeria Foreign Office in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Sometime ago, a contract was awarded to a foreign firm in Germany by my committee. This contract was over invoiced to the tune of US$18.5Million. The over invoicing was a deal by my committee to benefit from the project. We now desire to transfer this money which is presently in a suspense account of the Central Bank of Nigeria. (CBN) into any overseas account which we expect you to provide for us.
For providing the account where we shall remit the money, you will be entitled to 30% of the money, 60% will be for myself and my partners, the remaining 10% would be set aside to settle all expenses incurred by both parties.
I would require the following;
1. Bank Name and Address
2. Telephone , Fax Numbers of Bankers
3. Name of Beneficiary/Company Name/Address, Account Number
4. Confidential Telephone & Fax number of Beneficiary.
The above information would be used to make formal application as a matter of procedure for the release of the money and onward transfer to the nominated account you would provide. It does not matter whether or not your company does contract projects of this nature described here, the assumption is that your company won the major contract and subcontracted it out to other companies. We have strong and reliable connections and contacts at the apex Bank and the Federal Ministry of Finance and we have no doubt that all this money will be released and transferred if we get a reliable and trust worthy foreign partner to assist us in this mutual/beneficial deal. Therefore, when the business is successfully concluded, we shall through our same connections withdraw all documents used from all the concerned Government Ministries for 100% security. We are civil servants and we will not want to miss this opportunity.
Please contact me immediately through my above fax number or (Email;princegaius_jr@hotmail.com) whether or not you are interested in this deal. If you are not, it will enable me scout for another foreign partner to carry out this deal. But where you are interested, send the required documents aforementioned herein without delay, as time is of the essence in this deal.
I await your anticipated cooperation and response.
Best regards,
PRINCE GAIUS OBASEKI (JR).
