Just Got This, Want to Have Some Fun?

Dear Beloved,

Due to the sudden death of my husband General Abacha the former head of state of Nigeria in June 1998, I have been thrown into a state of hopelessness by the present administration. I have lost confidence with anybody within my country. I got your contacts through personal research, and had to reach you through this medium. I will give you more details when you reply.

Due to security network placed on my daily affairs I can't visit the embassy so that is why I have contacted you. My husband deposited $12.6 million dollars with a security firm abroad whose name is withheld for now till we communicate. I will be happy if you can receive these funds and keep it safe I assure you something good out of the funds in return for your assistance. I will need your telephone/mobile numbers so that we can commence communication.

Sincerely Yours,

Hajia Mariam.

I am waiting for a movie with Tommy Lee Jones where he admits to someone:

“It’s all true. These people really DO have access to billions of dollars in these accounts, and I make my living off of getting that money for them...”

In my wife's case, the smarter the person the less wise. Her thinking operates in a different way than the rest of us. She is a brilliant person but gets lost going to the local market.

Let someone ask a question about why this or that compound does this or that, and she can rattle off and draw out extremely reliable answers with explainations that bewilder those who are supposed to be in the know.

Yet she can't synch her issued phone with her email. It's been three years now.

First the Oil Minister. Now this??? What is going on in Nigeria????

Set up an account. Put $.19 in it. Ask the bank to track who accesses it, then send the data to Habib or whatever he’s calling himself today. If the bank sees an access attempt, they can log the IP it came from and possibly the destination account. That may lead authorities to the source of this scam.

It's been done quite well by our own 'lowbridge' back in 2004.

Some of the links may be dead due to the domain being available now.

This was sent to by e-mail, and you opened it not knowing the sender?

I knew you guys wouldn’t disappoint. That scam thread from years ago was the single funniest thing I’ve ever seen online. remember the “shoe king emporium” megabucks guy Al Bundy? I nearly had a stroke.

My Sweetheart,

I have received your communiqué and read it with great trepidation. I can sympathize with your plight, as I have also been thrown into a state of hopelessness by the ascension of the ruthless dictator, Generalissimo Obama, in my own country. Several of my dear friends and family members have already been taken away to the re-education camps simply for refusing to sings the daily songs of praise to the Dictator.

While I would love to assist you in the disposition of your funds, I fear that our communications have already been compromised. You see, the National Surveillance Apparatus has been monitoring my electronic mail accounts. I know this because when I check my sent items, the address “bfife@nsa.gov” has been CC’d to all of my messages!

To be safe, I suggest that we communicate through a more secure channel in the future. Otherwise, I fear our plan may be brought to a premature conclusion with one or both of us being targeted for a remote drone strike. So, if you would like to continue our conversation, I suggest you post a classified ad to the secure communications site “craiglist.org”. Post in the “Casual Encounters” section, under the user name “LeatherDaddy”, so that I will know how to locate your messages. I will contact you under an assumed name also, so please keep an eye out for my reply. I may have to use coded language to evade the authorities, but I trust you will be able to “read between the lines” and understand my meaning.

Yours truly,

Humberto Sabado Gigante

There is a great web site about these - google 419 scammers

We have a local freeper who has been doing this to great effect for years. There were some awesome threads on FR several years ago about it. Unfortunately, I can't remember the Freeper name.

Anyone else recall?

That was it! I knew I should have scanned down the thread before my last post.
