Hello,

I am publishing service manager for Continental Bank Benin.
I subscribe for one of our clients died in recent years.
After numerous inquiries to learn more about this customer and his home, I discovered that he had any person who can present themselves as a member of his family because he had cut all contact with the family in Europe twenty years ago.
So I contact you in order to act as agent (legal beneficiary) of the subscription.
I will give you more details if you are interested in my proposal. I continued to be optimist and hope to read you favourably

Is this fraud or not?

Everything stacks up in that it all seems genuine, but there is no trace of Anne Lynd and her charity except under a topic called Spam or Scam.

I think it's fraud, because of the fact that there is no web site or trace of the charity. But I'll happily be proven wrong.

Fraud.

One out of five.

From the Auditor/Head
of computing department
Bank of Scotland
United Kingdom.

For your kind attention,

Request for an urgent assistance/investment cum joint venture.

In order to transfer out (fifteen million five hundred housand pounds sterling) from our bank here I have thecourage to look for a reliable and honest person who will be capable for this important transaction, believing that you will never let me down either now or in future.

I am the auditor and head of computing department of a bank here in London and Scotland, United Kingdom. There is an account opened in this bank in 1995 and sincemy inception into office in 2001, nobody has operated on this account again, after going through some old files, I discovered that if i do not remit this money out urgently, it will be forfeited for nothing. The government could confiscate it.

How the money came about:

The owner of this account was Mr.Salah Adams who was a foreigner and the manager of Petrol chemical service here in London, a chemical engineer by profession and he died since 1995.And then, since 2001, nobody knows about this account or anything concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that his company does not know anything about this account and the amount involved is (15,500,000.00) pounds sterling.

I want to transfer this money into a safe foreign account abroad but i don't know any foreigner, i am onlycontacting you as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to any local bank here in Scotland, but can only be approved to any foreign account because the money is pounds sterling?s and the former owner of the account is John Hughes and he was a foreigner too.

I know that this message will come to you as a surprise as we don't know our selves before neither have we let,but be sure that it is real and a genuine business. I believe in God that you will never let me down in this investment.

When the transfer is approved and payment schedule allocated overseas, through the offshore payingdelegate for final clearance and signing of the paymentrelease form by the beneficiary, i want us to seeat the oversea payment clearance office face to face for signing of the original binding agreement to bind us together so that, we can receive this money into a foreign account or any account of your choice where the fund will be remitted. I am contacting you because of the need to involve a foreigner with a foreign account as the real beneficiary. i need your co-operation to make this work fine, because the management is ready to approve this payment to any foreigner who has the correct information to this account, which i will

Give to you when sure of your capability to handle such amount in strict confidence and trust according to my instructions and my advise for our mutual benefit because I don't want to make any mistake,I need your strong assurance and trust. I shall destroy all documents concerning these transactions immediately we receive this money leaving no trace at all.

I will use my position and influence on other staffs to effect the legal approvals and onward transfer of thismoney to your account with appropriate clearance from foreign payment department. With assurance that thismoney will be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for the sharing and possible investments.

Please do reply me through : seanglen94@yahoo.co.uk Thanks.

Sincerely,
Sean Glen

One out of five.

Dearest,one

It is my pleasure to write you after much consideration, since I can not be able to see you face to face at first, please I need your help. I am Eliza Akaego, the only Daughter of late diouf Akaego, from Cote d'Ivoire (I am 22years of age.)

My father was a reputable Gold merchant in Abidjan , Cote d'Ivoire before his untimely death.After his business trip to Tunisia,to nagociate on a cocoa and gold business he wanted to invest in Tunisia, a week after he came back from Tunisia, he got an accident with my mother of which my mother died instantly but my father died five days after in a private hospital. On that faithful afternoon, I didnt know that my father was going to leave me after I had earlier lost my mother, but before he gave up the ghost, it was as if he knew he was going to die.

He my father, (MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE) he called me to
his bed side and told me that he deposited the sum of ($6.m) Six Million US Dollars in a bank here in Cote D' Ivoire.That the money was meant for his cocoa and Gold business he wanted to establish in Tunisia, according to my father he deposited the money in a fixed suspense account using my name as the next of kin, He instructed me to seek for a reliable and trust worthy business partner for my life time investment abroad. Now I have succeeded in locating the deposit

documents and the bank where this money is here in Abidjan,Cote d`Ivoire.Due to war in my country Cote d'Ivoire, I am now seeking for your assistance to help me transfer this money out from my country Cte dIvoire to your account abroad so that we should invest it in any meaningful and lucrative business in your country because this is my only hope in life. I am willing to offer you 15% of the total fund if only youcan help me out of my present predicament.

I honourably seek your assistance in the following ways (1.) To provide a bank account where this money can be transfered into.(2.) To make arrangements for me to come over to your country after the successful transfering of this money into your account, to come and further my education.

(3.) To help invest this money in a profitable business since I am only 22yrs of age and do not know much about business.(4) To sponsor me transfer this money into your account,(5). I want you to promise me that you are not going to betray me after the money gets into your account.The worst part of it is that my uncle is trying to kill me because i refused to hand him over the documents covering this money, He has sold all my father's

landed properties including his cars which rightful belong to me and now he want me to hand over the banking document of my father in my possesion which i refused.Now he said that he will have this money by all means even if it means killing me, so because of this I ran away from home and hide in a hotel,pending when this money will be transfered so that i can leave the country for my safty.Please,consider my proposal and get back to me soon including your direct telephone number so we can talk.Thank's and God bless you.

Yours sincerely,
Eliza

Before the death of my father, he used my name to deposit some money as his next of kin in a FINANCE COMPANY HERE IN BENIN REPUBLIC. THE TOTAL AMOUNT DEPOSITED HERE FOR US IS VALUED AT $9.5 MILLION DOLLARS. And am standing as the beneficiary but cannot lay claim because here they do not allow refugees to operate account in the bank here and the finance company has contacted us to come and have our fund cleared . You see, we came here by ship 3 days now and it is very difficult for us here and we want to relocate there once the fund is in your care there.

Since i came here as a refugee, we are not allowed to operate or own bank account where the fund can be released and deposit for us for further transfer to anywhere we want to live and invest our fund.

Am pleading to you to assist us open a non residential account here with the bank so that the fund can be released into your account for further transfer to your nominated account in your country. I will explain more in details once i hear back from you.

Bismillâhi-r-Rahmâni-r-Rahîm,
Al-Hamdulillâhi Was-Salâtu Was-Salâmu 'Alâ Rasûlillâh,Wa Ba'd,
As-Salâmu 'Alaikum Wa Rahmatullâhi Wa Barakâtuh,

Wasalaam to you,and how are you doing?. My intention of contacting you is to solicit your assistance for a project, which will be mutually beneficial. Though I know my decision to contact you is to a large extent unconventional, the prevailing circumstances necessitated my action. I am Mrs. Iga Mai Sukariyati from Indonesia. I am married to Late Mallam Mustafa Sukariyati of Libya and am currently living in a hospital in libya my late hushand of the blessed memory was an oil explorer in Libya and Kuwait for twelve years before he died in the year 2000.

We were married for twelve years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both devoted Muslims.
Since his death I too have been battling with both Cancer and fibroid problems. When my late Husband was alive he made a huge deposit in millions of US dollars with a Deposit Company in oversea. (I will tell you the amount as we proceed).

Recently, my doctor told me that I have only six months to live due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a Muslim organization or devoted individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want this organization or individual to use this money in all sincerity to fund orphanages, widows,less priviledged and also propagating their religion and to ensure that the society upholds the views and belief of their religion.As a Muslim, i laid emphasis so much on the ALLAH'S benevolence and this has encourage me to take the bold step. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are into some radical Organizations which I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an Unholy manner.

Hence the reasons for this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with ALLAH the most beneficent and the most merciful. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health conditions and the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. With ALLAH all things are possible(second Sura,( verse 257) which says: "There must be no coercion in matters of faith").As soon as I receive your reply on Email: mrssukariyati5@myway.com I shall give you the contact information of the Deposit Company in oversea where the money was deposited. I will also issue a letter of authority to the Deposit Company authorizing them that the said fund Have being willed to you and a copy of such authorization will be forwarded to you. I want you and the community where you reside to always pray for me.

My happiness is that I lived a true devoted Muslim worthy of emulation. Whoever that wants to serve ALLAH must serve him in truth and in fairness. I will not stipulate any precise amount to reward you, as it will have to be on pre-negotiated terms based on your level of involvement. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give room in sourcing for another organization or a devoted Individual for this same purpose. Until I hear from you by email, my dreams will rest squarely on your Shoulders.
"And I (Allah) did not create jinns and humans except that they worship Me(alone)"

I suppose this isn't fraud, as she's asking for the money outright.

But it's GMail, so I suspect she's as fit as a butcher's dog.

Greetings,

My name is Victoria Mbaduga from Sierra-Leone but I am presently a
refugee staying in Ghana. I am writing to solicit your assistance in
the transfer of $12,000.000.00 million U.S dollars which my late
father deposited in a private security company here in Ghana.

This amount of money was deposited by my late father who was a diamond
dealer in the Sierra-Leone before he was killed with my mother by the
the Revolutionary United Front ( RUF) rebels.Before the death of my
father, he told me about this private and secret deposit he made with a security company here in Ghana.

Presently I am in Ghana where I sought asylum and I have contacted the
security company to confirm the existence of the deposited consignment, after having confirmed that, I contacted with my lawyer
who advised me that I must seek for a foreign beneficiary who will
assist me to claim the consignment because I cannot claim it because I
have a refugee status at the moment and the fiscal policy of Ghana forbid a refugee to own over $150 and as such if I proceed with my
request to claim the consignment, that it will be seized by the
government.,so I have been advised by my lawyer that I should find a
foreign partner abroad and then transfer the ownership of the
consignment to him or her and after having legally transferred the
ownership ,then the Security company will be requested to can
transfer consignment containing the money to my partner in his or her
country and after that my partner can help me to travel to his or her
country.

My purpose of contacting you is to appoint you as my beneficiary so
that we will make a legalized change of ownership and my lawyer will
help in procedures and instruct the security company to deliver the
consignment to you in your country. I agree to give you part of the
total money for your role. If you accept my proposal, please reply
with the following information:

Attention Sir,

Before I introduce myself, I wish to inform you that this letter is not a hoax mail and I urge you to treat it as urgent as with seriousness. I am a Director in Procurement Department with Ministry of Works and Housing here in Ghana. I obtained your email while searching for a reliable person, who could assist me in receiving transfer of a supposed contract awarded funds.
This fund came as a result of over estimated contract awarded sums executed by foreign contractors in the Ministry. The concerned Ministry has approved these over invoiced funds for payment. The contracts which the over invoiced sums was created from has been executed and commissioned. What I am about to receive now, is the over estimated funds which was added during the process of obtaining the contracts for my own interest. This is a normal deal that goes in my Ministry by top officials.

On my part, all modalities have been worked out in ensuring a smooth conclusion of the contract payment to your bank account within the next few days. My department approves payments to contractors, and I happen to head the department. All I want from you is to receive these funds on my behalf as a Sub-Let Company, because as Government Official I cannot collect the funds directly from my Ministry, neither I am allowed by Law to operate/ run foreign bank accounts. If you are trustworthy and can assist me in receiving the fund, do not hesitate to respond back to me immediately.

Please note that there is no risk involved in receiving the over estimated contract funds in your account. I want you to state in percentage what you shall have for participating in assisting me got this transaction done. As soon as you indicate your interest, further details and the amount involved shall be given to you once I receive response from you. I hope I can trust you to treat this proposal with utmost confidentiality.
Please do call me on this number for more discussion..00 233 248 203 286

Looking forward to hearing from you soonest.

Best regards,

Mr Micheal Izaghi.
