USD ($9.500,000) left in a prime bank here in Abidjan Cote D'ivoire with my name as the next of kin, so because of the political problem here now that cost the death of many people since 19th september 2002 here cote d'ivoire, then i decided to seek for a foreign partner who will help me in transferring the money out of Africa for investment purpose under his care since i am a girl also ignorant of investment.

He also explained to me that it was because of his wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice as to invest the money wisely.

Sir, I am honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways:

I HAVE TWICE MET THIS LAWYER ASKING HIM FOR HIS NOBLE HELP.BUT HE MADE IT CLEAR TO ME THAT THEIR CHAMBERS CAN NEVER ATTEND TO SUCH SERVICE WITHOUT COLLECTING THE CONSULTATION AND MOBILISATION FEE.

Dear Miss Rita Kone,

My name is Dr. Marcus Welby. I am a colleague of Dr. Werner R. Lovenstein at the Lovenstein Institute. I am afraid to say that Dr. Lovenstein has been arrested and charged by the authoritites for the crime of child molestation. To put it more bluntly, he has been diddling little boys.

It seems that he has been doing this for quite some time. Using his position as a Doctor to get close to little kids. Plying them with candy and money, and then having sex with them. When the parents found out, Dr. Lovenstein has bought their silence using funds that he embezzled from his own institute.

As it turned out, he has a past record of this from when he was a juvenile. It all started way back when he was 16 years old. He was caught and sentenced to 6 years in prison. But because he was a juvenile (under the age of 18), his sentence was reduced to two years, and after his release, his conviction was expunged from the official record.

We were all in great shock as you can well imagine.

The Lovenstein Institute Board of Directors have named me as Dr. Lovenstein's replacement and I have appointed accountants to go over the institutes financial records to see what was stolen and where did he spend it. So far they have managed to account for almost everything except for the sum of $350,000 which is still missing. I visited Dr. Lovenstein in jail and he refused to tell me the location of this missing money.

I am doing everything possible to prevent this news from being reported in the press. Failing that, I will be trying to save the good image of the Lovenstein Institute. That being said, I wish to continue the business deal you had with Dr. Lovenstein so that there will be no hard feelings from you. I hope that this is ok with you.

Please tell me what I have to do and what you need from me.

Thanks so much,

Dr. Marcus Welby

Lovenstein Institute, Chairman

Subject  ONLY THE TRUTH I NEEDED FROM

 

DEAR DOCTOR MARCUS,

HOW ARE YOU TODAY?

I THANK YOU FOR YOUR GOOD MESSAGE WHICH REALLY REVEALED TO ME THE TYPE OF PERSON DOCTR WERNER IS.I HAVE BEEN WONDERING WHAT MIGHT HAVE STOPED HIM FROM WRITTING TO ME FOR COUPLE OF DAYS NOW.IF YOU ARE REALLY SINCERE TO HANDLE THIS TRANSACTION,I WILL LIKE YOU TO TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOURSELF BEFORE I WILL CONSIDER YOU TO DO THIS TRANSACTION WITH ME,BECAUSE THIS MONEY IS MY ONLY HOPE OF SUEVIVAL IN LIFE.THE REASON WHY I AM TELLING YOU ALL THIS IS BECAUSE I WOULDN'T LIKE TO FALL INTO THE HAND OF ANY PERSON THAT WILL SIT ON HIS THIS MONEY WHEN FINALLY TRANSFERED INTO HIS ACCOUNT.

I HOPE YOU ARE NOT TELLING ME LIES,BECAUSE OF THE MOBILISATION FEE WHICH THE LAWYER DEMANDED DOCTOR WERNER TO SEND TO HIM BEFORE HE WOULD STEP INTO THIS TRANSACTION.IF I FOUND OUT THAT ALL THESE THINGS YOU ARE TELLING ARE LIES,I WOULDN'T BE HAPPY WITH YOU AT ALL.AND WILL DO EVERTHING TO BREAK THIS TRANSACTION WITH YOU.

I WILL LIKE YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE TO SEND TO ME YOUR PHONE AND FAX NUMBERS AND YOUR FULL LENGHT PICTURE,WITH THE PHOTO COPY OF YOUR INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT BEFORE I WILL GIVE YOU THE CONTACT OF THE LAWYER.

I AM STOPPING HERE TILL I HEAR FROM YOU AGAIN.

THANKS AND GOD BLESS YOU.

MISS RITA.

______________________________

 

Dear Miss Kone,

I am telling you the absolute truth. I wish all of this wasn't true. I wish all of this was not happening. But it is. It's all true.

I have additional bad news. Dr. Lovenstein tried to escape from jail, somehow he stole a car and was chased by the police off the side of a hill. He crashed and died. I am filled with nothing but grief. I can barely type this letter, I am so sad. He was my best friend and mentor for over 20 years. Attached are a couple of newspaper clipping proofs that I obtained from the Scranton Newspaper (the editor is a friend of mine) that mentions more of this story.

I think that it is in the best interest of the Lovenstein Institute to continue this transaction that you had with Dr. Lovenstein. I have a photo to send you as you require (a couple of photos of me and Dr. Lovenstein, both with and without my beard), but I do not have a scan of my passport handy right now. I will get that scanned and then send that to you in a later email.

My contact number is the same as it was for Dr. Lovenstein (44 XXXXXXXXX). I now have his office, and his phone number assigned to me. We are being deluged with calls, and as a result, I may have to change it. If I do that, I will give you the new number.

Thanks so much, Miss Kone.

Sincerely,

Dr. Marcus Welby

Dear Barrister Johnson Coulibari,

My name is Dr. Marcus Welby. You might not know me, but you might know a Dr. Werner R. Lovenstein. He is, or I should say was, my colleague here at the Lovenstein Institute. He was an acquaintance of Rita Kone, and as I understand it, prepared to go into business with Miss Kone. However, those plans were waylaid when Dr. Lovenstein was arrested and charged with 26 counts of child molestation. A day or two after that, he tried to escape from jail and died while being chased by the police when his car went over an embankment.

I am taking you into my confidence when discussing this because I am trying to save the good image of the Institute. So I hope you will keep all of this information confidential.

Anyways, as I was saying, I took it upon myself to contact Miss Rita Kone and continue this business transaction as scheduled because I did not want Miss Kone to have any hard feelings towards the Institute.

My details are as follows:

My phone number and fax number are the same. Country code 44 07092812628

BANKING DETAILS

Account no. 7442896439-84

Account holders name Dr. Marcus Welby

Bank name South Wok Bank

Bank address

1224 South St

Philadelphia, PA

Bank fax No. 215-XXX-XXXX

Bank phone No. 215-XXX-XXXX

My passport is attached.

Thank you,

Dear Barrister,

I'm sending the money "restricted delivery", That means you can only pick up the money at a specified location. Pus, the transaction won't be trackable online (after all, it is a secret transaction we are dealing in here) and as a result, the transaction wont be posted online. I thought that was probably a good idea to make sure that you got it.

I will be sending it here:

ECOBANK COTE D'IVOIRE

Head Office Branch

Avenue Terrason de Fougère

01 B.P. 4107 Abidjan 01

Tél: (225) 20.21.10.41

Fax: (225) 20.21.88.16

Télex: 22504 ECOBNK CI / 23266 ECOBNK CI

I will try to send it on Monday morning. If I can't, I will send it on Tuesday morning.

Thanks so much,

Dr. Marcus Welby

Lovenstein Institute, Chairman

____________________________________________

 

Email sent to the Ecobank branch in Abidjan:

To whom it may concern,

A man named Rev. Alexander Peter, will be coming to the following branch on Monday morning.

Head Office Branch

Avenue Terrason de Fougères

01 B.P. 4107 Abidjan 01

Tél: (225) 20.21.10.41

Fax: (225) 20.21.88.16

Télex: 22504 ECOBNK CI / 23266 ECOBNK CI

If he isn't there on Monday, he will be there on Tuesday morning. He will be stopping by to pick up 1,500 Euros from Dr. Marcus Welby at Western Union. Only thing is that the money won't be there because it was never sent. The man coming to pick up the money is a Nigerian 419 scammer. Be sure to get lots of photographs of him and get his identification.

___________________________________

 

À qui de droit, A Rev. appelé par homme Alexandre Peter, viendra à la branche suivante lundi matin.

S'il isn't là lundi, il sera là mardi matin. Il cessera près de prendre 1.500 Euros de Dr. Marcus Welby à l'union occidentale. Seulement la chose est que l'argent won't soit là parce qu'il n'a été jamais envoyé. L'homme venant pour prendre l'argent est un scammer du nigérien 419. Soyez sûr d'obtenir un bon nombre de photographies de lui et d'obtenir son identification.

Hi Rita,

Sorry for the delay, but running the institute has taken alot of my time.I thought that maybe you could move in with me. We can share a room. My wife wouldn't like it, but she doesn't like anything I do.

Your attorney has sent different instructions to me which has confused me. I tried to send it Western Union, and then he turns around and tells me to send it directly to his account. He said that I "rejected" sending it through Western Union, which wasn't the case. I had already sent it Western Union.

After this new wrinkle in this transaction, I went to the Board of Directors, and they said that they had major doubts about this transaction. I asked them for the money to complete this transaction, and they complained that you haven't shown any good faith towards the institute. That the Institute is putting up all this money for you on your behalf, and you're not even a member of the institute. I asked them that if you were a member, would they then allow me to send the money to your lawyer. They said definitely. Yes.

So, I need to make you a member of the institute. I hope you don't have any objections. If not I'll send you by email the requirements for you to sign up. Don't worry. It's pretty simple and you don't have to stay a member after I send your lawyer the money.

In any case, if you recall I told you something about $350,000 dollars missing from the Institutes accounts. And that Dr. Lovenstein, just before he died, said it was hidden under a "big W" in Santa Rosita Park. Well, I've just found out the location of the money, but I haven't told anyone about it. I'm the only one who now knows this information and I do not know what to do with the money.

I have attached a photograph of the location, of where it is hidden in the park.

Later on, I'm going to go dig it up. I've already bought a pick and a shovel from the hardware store and dig up that money. But once I got it, I do not know what to spend it on. If you have any ideas, let me know.

As for what schools you should go to, I was thinking of Harvard, or Princeton, or Yale. You write very well for a secondary school drop out, so I think you would fit right in one of those schools.

As for business ventures, I was thinking of you to invest in Enron, Pioneer Aviation, or in Automotive stocks like Edsel.

Thanks,

Dr. Marcus Welby

Lovenstein Institute, Chairman

Dear Miss Kone,

I am not telling you any stories. Dr. Lovenstein is indeed deceased. If he isn't dead, then why isn't he emailing you? Because he's long gone.

I realize that you wanted to do business with Dr. Lovenstein originally, but he is dead. And I now have his job. So now you have to deal with me and the Board of Directors.

And yes, I will gladly help you out in your transaction.

And dont you dare talk to me the way you have. Otherwise you will force me to spank you, you naughty girl.

Thanks,

Dr, Marcus Welby, MD

Dear Miss Kone,

I have looked through Dr. Lovenstein's old records and papers, and I cannot find any mention of Mr. Ububuka or Mr. Mason. So, I do not think that they are old acquaintances of him.

I have placed the Western Union receipt away. I will have to get that scanned. Unable to do that right now due to other concerns. As soon as my hands are free, I will have it scanned and sent to you.

No, your Barrister, Mr. Coulibari did not ask me to make payment to those guys. Here are his exact instructions to me:

________________________

However as you have rejected sending the money through

the western union,for proper accountability

reasons,you are therefore instructed to send this

money through the BIAO bank(BANQUE INTERNATIONALE DE

L'AFRIQUE DE L'OUEST)

to our cashier,Madam Attobrat Mouloubra Clementine.

A/C Number: 228/34/341/708x

Swift Code: BIAO CIABXXX

Best regards.

Barrister Johnson Coulibari.

(Attorney-at-law)

__________________________

I should have listened to him and made payment that way instead of Western Union.

I too am confused. I am wondering where the payment went. Because the Western Union offices are closed right now, I will not be able to check untill they are open.

Do me a big favor and keep the lines of communication open with Mr Ububuka. I gave you his email address (ububuka@XXXXXXX). Contact him, and try to find out who he is, where he is, how he got the money, what he did with it, etc. And then turn that information over to me.

Thanks,

It's a bad sign when he's using the word "joke". It sounds like he may have been burned before by another baiter. (or he's a litte more smarter than the average scammer). In either case, this guy is really going to give you a hard time about giving you your trophy.

Oh, he will obey. I have already written my reply, but will not send it to him until Monday. Here it is, let me know what you think. He has not asked me for any money yet....




Dear Harden Long:

Sorry that it took me so long to get back to you, but your last email really offended me. I was very shocked and disappointed in the tone of your last email. I was just being friendly which is what we businessman do over here in America. Maybe it is alright to be rude to partners in your town, but we frown upon that behavior. I am a good ole boy from the south and if you said those things to my face, I would open up a can of whoop ass on ya. Just kidding about whooping your ass Josh, but you really have hurt my feelings. I thought we were gonna be friends. You see, I love jokes & anyone I do business with had better know a few. Laughing keeps us young & we will be laughing all the way to the bank, right? I really want to help you out because 20% of 35 million is a lot of money. I am already a fairly wealthy man, but am always trying to increase my fortune. Even though I joke around, I am very serious.

About that picture thing... I am not calling you a liar, but you never told me that you didn't have a photo of you & Nelson.
You should have one of you with your brother though. I am very serious about seeing a photo. It is the only way I can be sure you are trustworthy. I will not do business with someone who is afraid to show me what they look like. The passport photo is no good as it could be anyone. I must know it is actually you. I will only know that if you hold up a sign with a special message for me. I would like it to say "A Moose Bit My Sister" or "I am Harden Long" or "Marshall Tucker Rocks My World".
Just pick one of those...Surprise me. I would also like you to tell me a joke. Here is one for you, I hope you like monkey jokes.


A guy walks into a bar with his pet monkey. He orders a drink and while he's drinking, the monkey jumps all around the place. The monkey grabs some olives off the bar and eats them, then grabs some sliced limes and eats them, then jumps onto the pool table, grabs one of the billiard balls, sticks it in his mouth, and to everyone's amazement, somehow swallows it whole.

The bartender screams at the guy, "Did you see what your monkey just did?"
The guy says "No, what?"
"He just ate the cue ball off my pool table---whole!"

"Yeah, that doesn't surprise me," replied the guy, "He eats everything in sight, the little bastard. Sorry. I'll pay for the cueball and stuff."
He finishes his drink, pays his bill, pays for the stuff the monkey ate, then leaves.

Two weeks later he's in the bar again, and has his monkey with him. He orders a drink and the monkey starts running around the bar again. While the man is finishing his drink, the monkey finds a maraschino cherry on the bar. He grabs it, sticks it up his butt, pulls it out, and eats it.

The bartender is disgusted. "Did you see what your monkey did now? he asks.
"No, what?" replies the guy.

"Well, he stuck a maraschino cherry up his butt, pulled it out, and ate it!" said the bartender.

"Yeah, that doesn't surprise me", replied the guy. "He still eats everything in sight, but ever since he swallowed that cue ball, he measures everything first."




Hahahhaha. I love monkey jokes & that one is the funniest. I am leaving today for the beach house again. The neighbors are complaining about the smell & stray dogs are all over the place. I may have to shoot them. Send me you phone number & I will call you because you have written that you called me, but I have not gotten any messages. I would also like to bring you some presents when I meet you in London. I want to bring you something special for including me in this once in a lifetime deal.
What do you like?

Boom Shanka,

Harry Palmer

This is really good. Always put your foot down. He will either comply, or he will stop emailing you. (which is why I go after several at a time. There are always more scammers in the sea).

Funny, I thought I had lost him...then I got a message from Hangfire who was enjoying my exchange...I had forgotton about Joshua. I sent him an email saying "why haven't you got back to me? I did everythign you asked...you must be a liar. Why did you tease me? He responed by saying he had been ill & would write again soon. Today I got this:


Dear Harry,

I was discharged from the hospital a couple of days back as i had high fever.I
never lied to you i was just indisposed with the illness that is why you
did not hear from me.You have a good sense of humour as your monkey joke
was funny as it sizes up things before taking a swallow.You were right about
south africa with one creepy illness or the other.I am glad we are in communication
again.I have with me the certificate of deposit.The attorney just informed
me that the letter of authorisation and the statutory declaration document
has been ready a while back.I need you to specify how soon you can travel to London to claim the consignment packages so that i can forward to you the said documents.I await your important response.

That would be funny. I wrote him a quick email yesterday saying I hoped he felt better soon & followed up with this today:

Hello again. What was the cause of your fever? That is very series to be hospitalized for a fever. I once had the Cat Scratch Fever, but that was a long time ago.

I can leave for London just about anytime. My schedule is fairly flexible. How soon do you need me there? I am glad you liked the monkey joke. Send me a joke.
I really need a laugh right now. There is a huge hurricane heading my way. My beach house in the Florida Keys is in a lot of danger. I guess this could be good news. I need to do
so much work on it after those hooligan poo freaks rampaged through my home.....maybe the hurricane will destroy the whole damn place & I can collect the insurance money. Do you think God will listen to prayers for destruction? What religion are you?

Ciao for Now,

He'll name a date which is probably too soon (they all seem to think that we have the luxury to travel internationally at the drop of a hat). In which case you can stall him off (make up stories about getting the passport, visa, etc.)untill I find another baiter, and see what days are best for them. Also ask him the address, exactly where, he wants this meeting to take place.

Dont give him a definitive date for your travel untill I can find a baiter in London who will agree to do this and on what days that baiter will be available.

He actually sent me a joke. I think this may be a different person.




Dear Harry,

Am glad to hear from you again.I am a christian by religion,what about you?
Typhoid fever is quite complicated if left un-treated for a long time and
you can be hospitalised like i said if left un-treated.I also have a good
sense of humuor just like you and here is a joke for you.I will make sure
i send you the documents at the start of this coming week.


Husband and wife are getting all snugly in bed.
The passion is heating up. But then the wife
stops and says, "I don't feel like it, I just
want you to hold me."

The husband says, "WHAT?" The wife explains
that he must not be in tune with her emotional
needs as a Woman. The husband realizes that
nothing is going to happen tonight and he might
as well deal with it.

So the next day the husband takes her shopping at
a big department store. He walks around and has
her try on three very expensive outfits. She
can't decide. He tells his wife to take all three
of them.

Then they go over and get matching shoes worth
$200 each. And then they go to the Jewelry
Department where she gets a set of diamond
earrings. The wife is so excited. She thinks her
husband has flipped out -- but she does not care.
She goes for the tennis bracelet. The husband
says "but you don't even play tennis, but OK if
you like it then let's get it."

The wife is jumping up and down so excited she
cannot even believe what is going on. She says,
"I am ready to go, let's go to the cash
register."

The husband says, "No, no, no, honey we're not
going to buy all this stuff." The wife's face
goes blank. "No honey - I just want you to HOLD
this stuff for a while." Her face gets really
mad and she is about to explode and the Husband
says, "You must not be in tune with my financial
needs as a Man!"

Best Regards,
Joshua

My reply:

Hahahahaha! I love that joke. I may have to pull that one on my wife the next time she gets out of line.
I am glad to hear you are a christian and NOT a fanatical muslim. I am a Southern Baptist now, but have experimented with almost every religion. I even joined a cult back in the 70's....that was very stupid, but I was on drugs at the time. My parents were killed in a car crash & I inherited a lot of money. I was terribly sad & lost when these people found me passed out in their driveway. They were very kind to me; took me in & cleaned me up, gave me some food, new clothes, a haircut. I think they put something in the food because I don't remember much after that. I almost gave that group of nutcases all my parents money. Luckily, my buddies came to the compound in their trucks & brought lots of guns along. They broke me out of that place & knocked some sense back into me. Thats what friends are for, Joshua! I am very loyal to my friends. Why didn't your friends get you to the hospital earlier to treat the typhoid fever? Did you know you had it? What are the symptoms? I am glad we don't have that here, but there are cases of West Nile virus. Another wicked "gift" from your continent!

I wanted to ask you why we are going to London. Not that I mind, as I wrote before...I have been there before & really enjoyed it. I may turn it into a summer vacation and go to a few other countries too. If we get along in person, you can travel with me. I always have a ton of fun.

Your friend,
Harry Palmer

Dear Harry.

Am glad you liked the joke.The consignment packages are in London.I need
to talk to you on the telephone so please give me a suitable time frame
in which i can call the number you gave me as it is always on voice mail(female
voice).It is important we talk on the phone as i want to send you the documents
which makes you the bonafide beneficiary of the consignment packages.I need
an early response from you.

Best Regards.
Joshua




Hi Josh: I am sorry, but that phone line is all messed up. I have not gotten one message. The voice lady came with the line & I never figured out how to change it. I am having the phone company investigate & fix it. I am not really very good with phone conversations as years of loud music has done a lot of damage to my hearing. I am almost completely deaf & most folks have to either yell or repeat themselves many times. That is why email is best for me. I am supposed to have an operation to restore my hearing, but that won't happen until December. I really feed like an invalid when I am forced to talk on the phone. If you could email me the documents, I would really appreciate it. Also, you never sent me that photo.....
Still waiting,
Harry Palmer

"The bench is directly outside the museum, the actual cam, IIRC is in a cafe across from the museum"

Make sure he's facing the cafe. :-) I should be getting some sort of confirmation in a couple of days of the bench location, so hold off sending him there untill I get the confirmation.
