Although we are just getting to know each other please consider it as a divine wish and accept it with a better understanding,I believe you have come to hare the good life with me because i am very lonely where i am,i just need your honest attention as you will consider me to be your closestfriend. Ernestly i am writing this mail with tears and sorrow from my heart due to the condition i find myself after the passing away of my parent and nothwithstanding the whole tragic situation my step mother made me feel mallested and rejected without any cause simply because my mum had died earlier and i am from a polygamous family. Thereafter the funeral of my late dad,my stepmother and my uncle with their african mentality conspired and sold off my father's properties worth milions of dollar to an italian expertrate and shared the money among themselves living me with nothing.

One faithful morning as i tried to open my father's briefcase,i found an important documents with which my father had deposited some money in my name as the next of kin at the African development bank,Burkina Faso. I had travelled down to Burkina Faso to withdraw some of the money to take good care of my self because i am in difficulty but the Bank Director whom I met in person highlited me on my father's instruction to the bank concerning the money and how it should be withdrawn that only on the account that i am married or i should present to the bank an honest,responsible and worthy trustee whom will assist me in reclaiming the fund into safe hands and transfer it for an investment as i finish up my education. In my search for a reliable person i have found you as some one i can count on and I believe that you will not betray my trust on you but rather take me as your own sister or closest friend because right now i am suffering terribly here in Burkina faso in the refugee camp as i have no body to rescue me from this strange situation in a foreign land.

I have chosen you to be my best companion and in my prayers i am convinced that you will be the true one to rescue me from this trouble as my trustee and i am having the trust that wih you i will accompish this successfully. I have the money confirmed in the bank $7.2 million in their records as unclaimed bill in my father account and i have the death certificate and the deposit certificate of the fund to state as proof of my geneuity. I shall compensate you 40% from the whole money in as much as you could help with the neccesary requirements to make the transfer of this money into your account successfully. I wait upon your positive response showing your interest and ability to stand for me in this situation and carry to carry out this transaction and in the light of the above i shall appreciate your urgent message indicating your willingness to help me with all your mind to achieve this successfully with a better details about yourself ok.

Dear Sir/Madam,

PREAMBLE: The Federal Ministry of Finance is responsible for the management and control of all finances of the Federal Government as prescribed by the constitution of the country. My office is in charge of finance and Accounts. The main source of our Country’s revenue is from the sales of crude oil. Nigeria is the 5th largest oil producing and exporting Nation. Officially, the price of our crude oil is fixed at $65 per barrel but sells currently for $84 per barrel. This amount some times appreciate and every time this happens, we have excess crude oil revenue which is sometime saved with our Central Bank, used for capital projects or disbursed to the Thirty Six States of the Federation. At the monthly Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) meeting, revenue amounting to N413.277 billion was distributed among the federal, state and local governments. After this disbursement, Foreign Excess Crude Account balance was US4.393 billion. Because of the oncoming general election scheduled for the month of February 2011, the excess crude is earmarked for special project (2011 election); procurement of voting materials.

THE DEAL: officially we have earmarked US 4 Billion for the supply of 132,000 units of Direct Data Capture (DDC) Biometric machines to a consortium of firms at about N34.4 billion for the conduct of voter registration exercise. In actual we have awarded US$2.3 billion for procurement of DDC Equipments, the balance of US1.7 billion we want to divert through you for funding of the ruling Political Party for 2011 coming election. To achieve this, we will include your company as one of that consortium that supplied the DDC equipments. You are not going to supply it but that will be the purpose of the payment and you will give us an account to receive the payment. We will issue a Payment Order with supporting voucher from our Ministry of Finance to the Central Bank of Nigeria and the money will be remitted to your bank account. Upon receiving the money in your account you will deduct our agreed percentage (as your share) and forward our share to us. As you can guess, I am not alone on this deal but I am your links man.

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS: The Deal is not an invitation to a free launch. Our projection is that it will cost about $507,000.00 to finance the entire operation. There are two parties to this transaction (You and US). The operation will be funded by both parties in commiseration to projected earnings. We proposal Seventy percent to us and Thirty Percent to you as sharing formula and formula for raising funding for the project. Funding will be in one lump sum, each stage shall be funded and we only move to the next stage after successful conclusion of the present but funding must be ready as and when due.

STAGES AND DURATION: The entire operation is scheduled to be concluded in a period of Two weeks. There are three stages in this transaction;
(a) Application stage i.e. registration of your company with the Ministry as a contractor and application for approval of payment for contract executed for INEC. We shall provide you with required information for all documentation.
(b) Processing stage i.e. processing the application for necessary approvals for payment in the finance ministry and office of the accountant general of the federation.
(c) Payment release and transfer to your nominated account. The transfer shall be in different installments. Starting from a couple of million, after successful transfer of the first and disbursement as scheduled. You would have earned the trust for the second and larger installment payment.

The receiving account should be a Dollar account and could be domiciled any where but outside Nigeria. However, considerations should be giving to prevailing Tax rates in the Country that the account is domiciled. A reciprocal non-disclosure and non-circumvention agreement shall apply. Please give this a favorable consideration as it is for our mutual benefit in this New Year. Send your responds to my E-mail or call me on telephone number +234 708 219 3265.

Subject: Nedbank: Don't Let Fraud Find You

Dear Customer

The beneficiary maintenance scam involves perpetrators contacting clients, and requesting them to amend their beneficiary details. Perpetrators create a false document using a legitimate company's details, and then request the client to update their beneficiary details on internet banking. The documents presented include letterheads, fax headers, invoices and statements which compare well to the company's legitimate documents, and appear to be genuine. The client subsequently pays money into the fraudulently opened accounts. The frauds are generally discovered a few months later when the creditor queries non-payment of accounts. By this time, the funds have been withdrawn from the fraudulent account, and there is no possibility of a recovery. The information required to perpetrate these frauds are usually obtained from intercepted post, rubbish bins, websites, etc.

DIVINE MISSION!!!

Greetings In the name of God Almighty,

First of all, I seek your indulgence to solicit for your assistance concerning the content of my e-mail, although I am not comfortable discussing it through this manner, due to lots of unsolicited mails on the internet presently, but I have no other medium to do so right now since the situation of my health is deteriorating.

INTRODUCTION: I am Mrs Aliz C Domokos; I am married to late Mr. Gábor Domokos of blessed memory a citizen of Republic of Hungary. Who was a reputable business magnet-(Oil Explorer) in United Kingdom for many years before He died of Heart Attack in the year 2008, we were married for Thirty-Five years with a child and our only son died in a ghastly motor accident last year 2009. I have been battling with both lung cancer and stroke.

My late husband deposited the sum of (Ј5.800.000.00) Five Million Eight Hundred Thousand British Pounds Sterling with a Bank here in United Kingdom and my name as beneficiary of the funds. After his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home.

According to the doctor, my medical report quotes a very short life sperm due to my health status presently. Maybe I may still have another 1-3 months to live, that I do not know but God can say. That is just my faith as a deteriorating cancer patient. But I pray to God to heal me so that I will be alive and see this work done as my late husband instructed me.

Knowing my health condition I decided to donate the above mentioned funds to an individual Muslim or Christian, even any other faith, so that He or She will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein, I want an individual that will use this fund for the less privilege ones like; orphanages, widows, also help our old ones who is unable to cater for their needs. The Bible and Quran made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth.

I took this decision because our only son who is suppose to inherit this money and properties is also late and my husband relatives has possesses some of my late husband properties and left me almost nothing. I don't want my late husband's relatives to know about this development, I know if I ask them to use these funds for less privilege ones they will use it for their own personal interest. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in such manner, this is why I am taking this decision, I know we have not meet before but I want you to consider this matter as DIVINE MISSION!!!

I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going; I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus "14 VS 14" says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace.

I want you and your family to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd, my happiness is that I lived a worthy life and whoever that wants to serve the God must serve him in spirit and truth.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you more details regarding this great mission. through my private email: aliz_domokos@netcourrier.com

Remain blessed.
Yours Sister,
Mrs Aliz C Domokos

This message is being sent to you for the purpose of a transaction that is worth $8,300,000.This transaction is completely legitimate and all legal documents will be provided which will cover you and the funds during the course of this transaction.

This money originated from a joint effort from myself and the deceased my friend (depositor).I brought 60% of the total sum originally and my late friend brought the balance which the money was to be used for a project in asia.I actually got my 60% of the total sum from a loan facility.

I am contacting you because of your family name which is the same with my friends' because according to the agreement between the depositor and the bank,it is only someone that bears the same family name with the depositor that is eligible to lay claims to the funds.Since there is none available to claim the funds which My friend/client deposited in the bank,i decided to claim it on my own with a choice of my own.

I am John William by name and i am presently in Italy precisely because of this transaction.If you are interested in this transaction,i will advise you send me an email with the following details:

Full Name :
Tel Number:
Age:
Occupation :

The reason for these details to be released to me is for me to be sure i am not corresponding with the wrong person.Note that you are been contacted because of your family name and as such,i must be very sure someone else is not playing a fast one on either of us.

If you would like to discuss further about this transaction that you will be of benefit to you,email me back only on this email address :kpekus@johnallenwilliams.com

I am sending you this message from a secure military server for the sake of confidentiality.So endeavor to send me a response back only to the email address stated above.

My name is Mr. Armen Marutyan, am an international investment adviser living in New York. In my association with a client in Moscow, Russia, I got a very private brief to request for your participation in a business venture involving the bridging of funds for investments in North America. The goal is to move funds from the existing currency trading account of a Russian Company
to North America for investment purposes.. We need to re-profile funds within his company's investment portfolio into your name as the ‘’management consultant’’ who advises the company on where and how to invest with good ROI. We will then move the funds to your bank account and instruct you to re-route to our agreed investments location in North America. The complete amount available for you for re-profiling (pro currency trading) will be made known to you in our further talks. However, I need assurances that you can handle this from the Private bank location in Switzerland via your bank account to North America.

This is a legitimate business, and it is not connected with any illegal or criminal funds, but my client wants this transaction done under the strictest confidence because he has plans for political public office in Russia. You will receive an attractive six digit figure payment for this business service that is expected of you and I will provide you with appropriate guarantee for comfort during this business. With your anticipated cooperation, we can conclude this business within the next 2-6 weeks.

Please reply and include your telephone number for me to call you for further talks.

Yours Sincerely,

As a result of this, these friends try to claim the lottery on behalf of the real winners. The Microsoft lottery has reached a decision from headquarters that any double claim discovered by the Lottery Board will result to the Canceling of that particular winning, making a loss for both the

From Mrs Linda Robert,

I am Sister Linda Robert. From Solomon Island, I am married to late Mr. Tepedino Robert. He worked with Solomon Island embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2009 April 26. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.

When my late Husband was alive he deposited the sum of $5,500,000.00 (Five million Five hundred U.S. Dollars) in a bank on my name as beneficiary of the fund here in Abidjan. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months due to cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Nobody will ever come because the certificate of deposit is never available to any body except the depositor or me. I will be looking forward to your indication of interest so that we can proceed with the process of claiming the funds with the below information I will like you send to me:

Your Full Name.....
Address................
Nationality..................
Age...............
Sex..................
Occupation............
Tel & Fax No.................
Mobile.....................
A copy of your int'l passport or ID card............

Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want you to use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavour that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that pleased is the hand that giveth I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my late husband relatives are not Christians and I don't want my our efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision.

I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband relatives around me always. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth.

Please the only person that I have handed all the deposit documents in my position is our family lawyer; I have explained every thing to him and he is in support of my plan, but he is waiting for whom ever that I chose to contact him, so that he will assist in transferring this fund into your account. Please feel free to contact the lawyer with your full details and let him know that you are from Mrs Linda Robert; here are his contact details;

Hon. Lord Gold Smith

Remain Bless,

Yours in Christ,
Sister Linda Robert
