WEST AFRICA.
DEAR FRIEND/DIRECTOR/CEO
I AM DR.ZULU MOHA AND I AM THE DIRECTOR OF THE ACCOUNTS & AUDITING DEPT. AT THE AFRICAN DEVELOPEMENT BANK OUAGADOUGOU - WEST AFRICA. WITH DUE RESPECT I HAVE DECIDED TO CONTACT YOU ON A BUSINESS TRANSACTION THAT WILL BE BENEFICIAL TO BOTH OF US.
AT THE BANK'S LAST ACCOUNTS/AUDITING EVALUATIONS, MY STAFFS CAME ACROSS AN OLD ACCOUNT WHICH WAS BEING MAINTAINED BY A FOREIGN CLIENT WHO WE LEARNT WAS AMONG THE DECEASED PASSENGERS OF AN AIRLINE CRASH ON 6TH NOV.2002.
SINCE THE DECEASED WAS UNABLE TO RUN THIS ACCOUNT SINCE HIS DEATH. THE ACCOUNT HAS REMAINED DORMANT WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS FAMILY SINCE IT WAS PUT IN A SAFE DEPOSIT ACCOUNT IN THE BANK FOR FUTURE INVESTMENT BY THE CLIENT. SINCE HIS DEMISE, NOBODY, NOT EVEN THE MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY HAVE APPLIED FOR CLAIMS OVER THIS FUND AND IT HAS BEEN IN THE SAFE DEPOSIT ACCOUNT UNTIL WE DISCOVERED THAT IT CANNOT BE CLAIMED SINCE OUR CLIENT IS A FOREIGN NATIONAL AND WE ARE SURE THAT HE HAS NO NEXT OF KIN HERE TO FILE CLAIMS OVER THE MONEY.
AS THE DIRECTOR OF THE DEPT, THIS DISCOVERY WAS BROUGHT TO MY OFFICE SO AS TO DECIDE WHAT IS TO BE DONE. WITH THE FEW PERSONEL IN MY DEPT, WE DECIDED TO SEEK WAYS THROUGH WHICH WE CAN TRANSFER THIS MONEY OUT OF THE BANK AND OUT OF THE COUNTRY TOO. THE TOTAL AMOUNT IN THE ACCOUNT IS TEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THUSAND DOLLARS (USD 10,500,000.00).
WITH OUR POSITIONS AS STAFF OF THE BANK, WE ARE HANDICAPPED BECAUSE WE CANNOT OPERATE FOREIGN ACCOUNTS AND CANNOT LAY BONAFIDE CLAIM OVER THIS MONEY WHILE WE WERE CONTEMPLATING ON WHAT TO DO. A FRIEND OF MINE WHO WORKS WITH THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY RECOMMENDED YOUR PERSONALITY TO ME AND ADVISED ME TO ASK YOU FOR HELP, TO TRANSFER THIS MONEY OUT OF THE COUNTRY. THE CLIENT IS A FOREIGN NATIONAL AND YOU WILL ONLY BE ASKED TO ACT AS HIS NEXT OF KIN AND I WILL SUPPLY YOU WITH ALL THE NECESSARY INFORMATIONS AND BANK DATA TO ASSIST YOU IN BEING ABLE TO TRANSFER THIS MONEY TO ANY BANK OF YOUR CHOICE WHERE THIS MONEY COULD BE TRANSFERED INTO.
I AND MY PARTNERS HAVE DECIDED TO GIVE AWAY THIRTY % (30%) TO YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE AND TEN (10%) FOR ANY EXPENSES THAT MIGHT ARISE DURING THE TRANSACTION OF THIS TRANSFER. WE WANT TO ASSURE YOU THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS ABSOLUTELY RISK FREE SINCE WE WORK IN THIS BANK AND THAT IS WHY YOU SHOULD BE CONFIDENT IN THE SUCCESS OF THIS TRANSACTION BECAUSE YOU WILL BE UPDATED WITH INFORMATION AS AT WHEN DESIRED.
WE WILL PLEASE WISH YOU KEEP THIS TRANSACTION SECRET AS WE ARE HOPING TO RETIRE WITH OUR SHARE OF THIS MONEY AT THE END OF TRANSACTION WHICH WILL BE WHEN THIS MONEY SAFELY HITS YOUR ACCOUNT. WE WILL THEN COME OVER TO YOUR COUNTRY FOR SHARING ACCORDING TO THE PREVIOUSLY AGREED PERCENTAGES. YOU MIGHT EVEN HAVE TO ADVISE US ON POSSIBILITIES OF INVESTMENT IN YOUR COUNTRY OR ELSEWHERE OF OUR CHOICE. MAY GOD HELP YOU TO HELP US TO A RESTIVE RETIREMENT. AMEN.

| Dear Sir,
This letter may come as a surprise because we have not met nor had any previous correspondences but was borne out of my sincere burning desire to establish a business/mutual relationship with you.
I got your contact during my research and l hope I will not regret ever approaching you because this present world is filled of dishonesty and mistrust.
My name is Yvonne Franca Ford, the Wife of Mr. Terry Simpson Ford who was murdered by the agents of President Robert Mugabe due to his opposition to the oppressive and exploitative Land reforms Act. Though, I do not know to what extent you are familiar with events and fragile political situation in Zimbabwe but I know it has formed consistent head lines in the CNN, BBC news bulletins. You can further read about the death my late Husband via http://www.guardian.co.uk/zimbabwe/article/0,2763,669960,00.html
the pressure from the government forced me and my family out of Zimbabwe into exile in South Africa, where we have been living under political asylum for a few years now.Befor the death of my Husband some years ago, He handed me over a certified documents meant for Deposit, which my Husband made with the Private Security Company. The deposit, which is worth $16,000.000.00(Sixteen Million United States Dollars), was deposited before the out break of war.
He deposit in his name with the hope of relocating his family to the neighboring town of Tanzania but was murdered when the conflict intensified as a result of his opposition to the oppressive and despotic government of Robert Mugabe.I have contacted the Security Company to confirm the deposit and established an ownership link as next of kin.
With respect to the certified document handed over to me by my Husband after the death of my husband and followed by the continued hostility in my country Zimbabwe, I have decided to remain here for now and solicit for the assistance of an honest and trustworthy person who will assist me in the business re-investment of the said money.
I cannot do this due to my present social status as a refugee here and my total ignorance of the business world. You will be given 30% of the said money and a share holder base in the investment if secured. If you are honest, trustworthy, capable of investing this sum of money, contact me to give you all the details you need to know about this immediately. For my safety, you must maintain absolute confidentiality to ensure success.
Please, indicate your personal Tel/Fax numbers when replying this mail. I will let you view my late husband Depositary Certificate when I receive your sincerely mail. My warm regard,
Mrs Yvonne Franca Ford.

| Who’s Crazy? | Dear Friend,
I feel quite safe dealing with you in this business proposition though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest, surest and most secured medium of communication.
I know that this mail will come to you as a surprise as we have never met before.My name is Mr ABDULSAMI ALI I am the bill and exchange manager in BANK OF AFRICAN [B.O.A) I Hoped that you will not expose or betray this trust and confident that i am about to repose on you for the mutual benefit of our both families.
I am writing in respect of a foreign customer of our Bank who perished along with his next of kin with Korean Air Line, flight number 801 with the whole passengers on 6th of augustus 1997 and for your perusal you can view this site http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9708/06/guam.passenger.list
Since the demise of this our customer, I personally has watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds of US$8.3M (Eight Million Three Hundred Thoudsand United States Dollars) which has been with our branch for a very long time.
On this note, I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the Next of Kin since nobody is coming for the fund again.The Banking ethics here does not allow such money to stay more than 12, years, the money will be recalled to the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund after this period.
In view of this I got your contact through the internet when i was making a research on a foreignerthat I will use in this great opportunity because i dont want the money to be recalled to our Bank treasury as uncliamed fund.I have also agreed to offer 40% of the total sum and the rest 60% will be for me.
The reason for a foreigner in the business is for the fact that the deceased man was a foreigner and it is not authorized by the law guiding our Bank for a citizen of BURKINA FASO to make the claim of the fund.So the request of you as a foreigner is necessary to apply for the claim and transfer of the fund smoothly into your reliable Bank account as the Next Of Kin to the deceased.
If you are really sure of your integerity, trustworthy and confidentiality, and accept not to cheat or disappoint me after this business, reply with your telephone and fax numbers and banking account details where you wish to receive the fund.
Upon receipt of the above mentioned informations,indicating your interest in the business,I will send you by fax or e-mail a letter of application which you will type and send back to our bank to enable us start this transaction.
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is hitch free on both sides and dont have any negative impact.You should not entertain any fear as all modalities for the smooth and easy transfer of this fund has been finalized, this transaction will be completed within 10 bank working day immediately you applied to the Bank as relation to the deceased customer.
Waiting for your urgent response

| YOUR IMMEDIATE INHERITANCE/CONTRACT PAYMENT | YOUR IMMEDIATE INHERITANCE/CONTRACT PAYMENT
RE: PAYMENT OF YOUR OUTSTANDING DEBT VIA CERTIFIED INTERNATIONAL BANK DRAFT
This is to inform you that the Presidency has stepped into the payment of your contract /inheritance fund. The instruction to this Board to authorized your payment was given by the President himself Alhaji Umaru Musa Yar'Adua following intelligence report on contract payment he received which revealed that the lower offices and department including some departments of (C B N) are engaging in the practice of payment delays through unnecessary use of bureaucratic office processes and imposition of unauthorized fees. This apart has been allegations that some officials of NNPC and CBN deliberately divert funds approved with the name of a beneficiary to accounts that were not given by the known contractor after the due processing and approval of such payment.
To avoid and curtail such, official misconduct and deliberate delay of foreign contractor’s payment under one flimsy reason or the other, the President of the Country therefore mandated this office to raise contractor’s payment and ensure that such payments are received by the contractor within a short period of five (5) days from the day of notice. Based on the information contained in your contract files and records submitted to us from NNPC, CBN, and FMF your name was in the list of Category A contractors whose payments have been verified and approved with the records indicating that your payment has long been over due. The directive from the President based on all these findings is that this office should make immediately uninterrupted payment of your contract fund direct from the Federal Treasury. Other offices including CBN earlier handling your payment has been advised to hand over to this office to avoid duplication of efforts, though such offices hesitate to let you
know of this new development.
In respect of this, this office held a meeting with the representatives of concerned government bodies during which your contract file and other information of your payment were submitted. After going through your file a lot of official irregularities, impending stop orders and complexities surrounding the payment were discovered. This office and the concerned bodies unanimously decided and approved that your contract payment will be raised in Certified International Bank Draft. The draft will be raised either in your name or in the name of your Company as the beneficiary. As soon as the draft is raised and signed off by you, you will be required to present the draft at your bank for confirmation and crediting of fund into your account. This will take 3-5 days of depositing of draft in your bank. Finally, I have tried reaching you by telephone but unsuccessful, I will advise you to call me or send me a fax in regards to this, so that I will intimate you more in regards to your contract payment.
Reconfirm your details to me so that I can verify that you are the genuine beneficiary of the sum. Further details concerning your payment will be given to you once you contact the under signed on EMAIL: accdankwamboffice@i12.com, CELL: +234-70-778-1190. This panel hereby uses this medium to congratulate you and heart fully thank you for your patience and understanding during all this years of delays on your contract fund.

| In recent weeks, IH Mississippi Valley Credit Union members in the Quad-City region have been the target of several scams originating in Korea.
In each instance, members and staff were quick to alert customers, said Laura Ernzen, vice president of marketing for the credit union.
One scam warned customers that the credit union had suspended their accounts. Another focused on trying to acquire members’ debit card numbers. That fraudulent e-mail sought confidential information from credit union members by offering members between $50 and $80 for taking an online survey.
Ernzen said the credit union contracted with a fraud specialist to deal with the scams. The fraudulent e-mails were generated internationally from Korea, and the specialist was able to shut down the bogus Web site, she said.
Another e-mail scam circulating last week targeted customers of Wells Fargo Bank. In those e-mails, people were told that there was an “unidentified money transfer” in their online accounts, that Wells Fargo’s online security team had suspended their online banking service, and that the accounts needed to be updated.
“Indeed, phishing is an industry-wide problem. Please be assured that these e-mails are randomly sent and that no Wells Fargo customer information or customer lists have been compromised,” said Sandra Fording Foreman, spokesperson for Wells Fargo Bank. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
