Dear MR OMAR SAWABA SQ.

A friend of mine passed me your e-mail about the $15 million dollar unclaimed account at your bank. I am willing to participate in this flagrant breach of the law, in effect fraudulent grand theft, on the following conditions: I get sixty percent and you and your lady friend get thirty percent. The extra ten percent will be forwarded immediately to me as proof of your honesty and good intent. Since you work in a bank this should be no problem. On reciept of it I will provide you with the rest of the required information when we meet inside your bank in Bukiland? These are my only conditions and I'm sure, on reflection, you will realise it is a very generous offer.

My friend, Mr Holmes, is a computer technician and has already provided me with your isp address. He also informs me your telephone number is for a pay-as-you-go cheap mobile phone. He mustn't be functioning on full power as he has been unable to trace you on the staff of the bank you named. But don't worry about that, we can clear all that up when we meet. I await eagerly the arrival of the deposit (in English twenty pound used notes sent by courier to the following address: 221B Baker Street, London. MI5). On reciept of the same I will make arrangememts for Mr Holmes and myself to fly out and meet you and your lady friend outside your bank so that we can complete the , er, negotiations satisfactorily.

Compliments of the season in return and nice doing business with you.

Dr John.H.Watson.

ps: on receipt of this e-mail, please forward it on to ten of your friends. You must do this within ten minutes of receiving it or it will lose its magic and you will have no luck.

Hello dear

Quite frankly, I know it may sound pretty strange for you on why I contacted you, but simple reason was that we do not know each other before. It would be very difficult for me to contact anybody here who knows me for this purpose as I may stand the risk and chance of being betrayed because the person would have known my weaknesses, I may even lose my life on the long run but this is an exact opposite on contacting a you a complete stranger to me. I always known that it would be very difficult if not totally impossible for someone who does not know me to hurt me over this funds. I believed in my heart that you will not fail me nor try to do anything funny.

Although we have not met before but through email communication we can know each other very well. As matter of fact, the reason of dropping this few words to you are because of the need to invest in your country through your assistance. Already I have made every arrangement on how the money will be transferred depending on how you might want it. To clear myself, Rose. Osafo-Maafo is my name and the only daughter of former Ghanaian minister of finance. Although he was sacked by President John Kufuor on 28 April 2006 for the fact he signed £29 million book publication contract with Macmillan Education without reference to the Public Procurement Board and without Parliamentary approval. You can read more on this web page http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/N ... ?ID=103713

http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/20 ... 776167.htm

My father and mother was among the dead after a plane carrying at least 104 people crashed in Nigeria on 29 Oct 2006 (may their soul rest in perfect peace). As matter of fact, £18.5 million part of the money was lodged into account with a bank in Eruope but I'm presently staying in South Africa writing you now.

Already the bank have advised me to employ a lawyer who will stand and see that the funds is transferred in any way there will be no trace. I would like you to give this a highly confidential approach. Any question you wish to ask concerning this transaction, do not delay to ask.
I wait your response.

Regards,

Rose

E-MAIL: [email protected]

Dear friend,

I am a legal representative of a well known political personality in South
Africa who has some financial interest that need to be legitimized using a
foreign national (not resident in South Africa) as a front.

My client has briefed and mandated me to make this contact and open up
communication with you for a possible business relationship. While in
government, my client used his respected official position to accumulate some
funds through the awards of contracts that were inflated, the said funds in
question is $5.2m. These contracts have since been executed and the contractors
have been duly paid, but the balanced over-invoiced amount remains unclaimed in
a transitory account with the ministry of finance, awaiting approval for
payment.

My client's brief to me therefore is to source for a bold and trustworthy
foreign based business person, who can act as a front in laying claims to this
yet unclaimed amount. More details and procedures of how the funds will be
released to you as the beneficiary will be discussed after a positive response
from you, and be assured that the transaction contemplated with you will be
mutually beneficial with a zero level risk.

Be informed you are to benefit or compensated with 12% of the total amount
involved,(although still negotiable) please respond A.S.A.P for details if
interested, and send your reply to this email address([email protected])

Regards,

Ellis Roland(Esq.).

That's my favourite bit; woman colleague. I suppose he means wife?

Babushka I have found you.

For many months I have searched endlessly for you, the great one; the special one. At last I can approach you, and only you. My search is over.

In my mother country of Russia I am a very rich man. I have also come to the attention of some very evil people and I must remove my assets to the United Kingdom where people are judged not by birth or nationality but by how high they are on the money list of rich peoples. I finally located your e-mail address in the Yorkshire Terriers Owners of the Algarve and found you too had moved to the promised land. It is with great joy that I make you this proposition: Help me to spend my millions/billions.

Send me the name of your bank and your account details and I will fill it with roubles and shekels higher than your esteemed ego. It will of course still be my money to do with as I wish, but in return I will buy you a football club and the best players in the land; any land. You will be my numero uno and you will want for nothing; a mansion, a top school for your children, a magnificent car, a yacht, a gold-plated kennel, many scarves and overcoats, a new electric razor; the list is endless.

You must help me. The dreaded Inland Revenue will only take away my money if I don't spend it and I have heard football clubs are the new stocks and shares bandwaggon for the rich and ambitious. Contact me immediately and we will meet in a Chelsea hotel and chat about it over champagne and poached players. I cannot return to the land of my birth as I am in fear of my wife..er, life, so act hastily oh special one and together we will rule the football world.

Yours especially,

R Abramovich-Smith.

And Jose Maurinho fell for it, replied, and look what bloody happened.
