Yay! My first Nigerian money scam spam!

quote:

Dear friend,

I am soliciting your confidence in this business; this is because of its nature as being utterly confidential and top secret. Though, I know that a business of this sort will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that this transaction is 100% safe. We have decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction as we have been reliably informed of your discreetness and reliability in executing businesses and or transactions.

Let me start by introducing myself properly to you. I am Mr. Vincent Kawa Credit Officer with the chattered credit bank Lagos, Nigeria. I came to know you in my private search for a reliable and reputable person to handle this confidential transaction, which involves the transfer of huge sum of money to a foreign account requiring maximum confidence.

THE PROPOSITION:

A foreigner, Late Engr. John Creek (Snr.), was an oil merchant with the federal government of Nigeria during the regime of the late General Sanni Abacha, until his death sometime ago in the Kenya Air Bus (A310-300) Flight KQ430. Banked with us at chattered credit bank, Lagos and had a closing balance as at the end of September, 2000 worth #16,200,000.00 (Sixteen Million two hundred thousand British pounds), the bank now expect a next of kin as beneficiary. Valuable efforts have been made by the chattered credit bank, Lagos to get in touch with any of the Creek's family or relatives but to no success.

It is because of the perceived possibility of not being able to locate any of Engr. John Creek (Snr.)'s next of kin (He had no wife or children that is known to us). The management under the influence of our Chairman and members of the Board of Directors, which arrangement has been made for the fund to be declared unclaimed and subsequently be donated to the trust fund for arms and ammunitions to further enhanced the course of war in Africa and the world in general. In order to avert this negative development, my trusted colleague and I now seek your permission to have you stand as next of kin to late Engr. John Creek (Snr.) so that the fund #16.2 million will be released and paid to into your account as the beneficiary's next of kin. All documents and proves to enable get this fund will be carefully worked out. I found it more convenient to commence on the transaction since our affiliates in Europe can pay us. We are assuring you that your Involvement in this business is 10!
0% risk free.

You shall retain a percentage that will be agreed between us while the rest be for us the originators of the transaction, for investment purpose as you may direct in your country. As soon as we receive an acknowledgement of receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business proposal, we would furnish you with the necessary modalities and disbursement ratio to suit both parties without any conflict including every other detail you may wish to know. If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust we have bestowed in you. On receiving your reply,

I shall give you a call to finalize all arrangements for a hitch free transaction PLEASE, APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT DOING BUSINESS OVER THE INTERNET IS RISK. ENDEAVOR TO SEND YOUR CONFIDENTIAL TELEPHONEAND FAX NUMBER IN YOUR REPLY TO THIS MAIL.

Regards,

Mr Vincent Kawa
