hi christine
thanks for posting the photo
you look like a movie star, but I can't think which one
Prentice has a steady clear gaze
I'm reminded of his wish to work for the Bush administration
and more than ever, I think he would be an asset to it
Linda looks lovely, and PP has a sweetness to him
Love, Palo

Hello..I am sort of new here. I try to just read and not post much as I am learning. But I got this email and I wanted to turn it over to the fbi or whoever would be in charge of this type of thing...Maybe you can tell me who to contact about it. Thanks ...

Here is that email:

FEDERAL MINISTRY OF WORKS AND HOUSING

FEDERAL SECRETARIAT

IKOYI-LAGOS

FROM:DR.AHMED HASSAN THE:PRESIDENT/CEO FAX: 234-1-7590801

Dear Sir,

ASSISTANCE REQUIRED FOR ACQUISITION OF ESTATE

I write to inform you of my desire to acquire estates or landed properties in your country on behalf of the Director of Contracts and Finance Allocations of the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing in Nigeria.

Considering his very strategic and influential position, he would want the transaction to be as strictly confidential as possible. He further wants his identity to remain undisclosed at least for now, untill the completion of the transaction. Hence our desire to have an overseas agent.

I have therefore been directed to inquire if you would agree to act as our overseas agent in order to actualize this transaction.

The deal, in brief, is that the funds with which we intend to carry out our proposed investments in your country is presently in a coded account at the Nigerian Apex Bank (i.e. the Central Bank of Nigeria) and we need your assistance to transfer the funds to your country in a convenient bank account that will be provided by you before we can put the funds into use in your country. For this, you shall be considered to have executed a contract for the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing in Nigeria for which payment should be effected to you by the Ministry, The contract sum of which shall run into US$25 Million, of which your share shall be 30% if you agree to be our overseas agent.

As soon as payment is effected, and the amount mentioned above is successfully transferred into your account, we intend to use our own share in acquiring some estates abroad. For this too you shall also serve as our agent. In light of this, I would like you to forward to me the following information:

1. Your company name and address if any 2. Your personal fax number 3. Your personal telephone number for easy communication.

You are requested to communicate your acceptance of this proposal through my above stated email address or my fax number 234-1-7590801, after which we shall discuss in details the modalities for seeing this transaction through.

Your quick response will be highly appreciated. Thank you in anticipation of your cooperation.

Yours faithfully, DR.AHMED HASSAN.

This is just one more Nigerian Confidence scam.
Do not Reply, or they will bury you in E-Mail and letters.

When I lived in Houston I used to get one of these by mail about once a month, because I had had some dealings in Nigeria.

If they come by mail you can turn them over to the US Postal Inspectors to handle as Mail Fraud. I suppose that the FBI is the correct place to send this E-Mail, but I doubt if they have much time to worry about some confidence man in Nigeria right now.
The Nigerians are having Anti-American Riots right now, so they sure aren't going to do anything

That is a well-known scam, the FBI is familiar with it and dozens of similar ones. Nigeria has a thriving cottage industry of rip-offs, scams and the counterfeiting of official U.S. documents.

you know the proper way to drink scotch.

Wrong, habster! You will note Prentice's gray hair. Thinking people know that contaminating scotch with fizzy water makes hair turn gray. Trying to convince people that fizzy water enhances scotch makes your hair fall out. What color was your hair before it fell out?
