Today's 419 Scam

As usual, ignore and delete this kind of message. It is a scam like all the other ones. And these idiots just keep sending them to me.

From The Desk of Hassan Bello Bill and Exchange Officer Foreigner Remittance Dept African Development Bank Burkina Faso Pls Contact me with my alternative email address :hassan_bello222@latinmail.com Dear Friend, I am the officer of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of African development bank. In my department i discovered an abandoned sum ofUS$10.5 US dollars (ten million five hundred thousand US dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family in July 2000 plane crash. website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidlings and laws but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety andsubsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill.

The banking law and guidline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after fours years, the money will be transfered into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.

I agree that 30% of this money will be for you as a respect to the provision of a foriegn account , 10%will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business .Thereafter, I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentage indicated.
Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number,your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where in the money will be remitted.

Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text of the application . I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer.You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.

Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Yours faithfully
Hassan Bello

Dear Friend,

REQUEST FOR YOUR PROMPT ATTENTION

I am Mr.Brown Walter, Auditor General of Natwest Bank Group, UK. I am writing
following an opportunity in my office that will be of immense benefit to
both of us. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $15,500,000,00
(Fifteen Million,Five Hundred thousand united State Dollars.) in an account
that belongs to one of our foreign customers, Late Mr.Naomi Laigo an
American who unfortunately lost his life in the plane crash of Alaska Airlines
Flight 261 which crashed on January 31st,2000. including his wife.
You shall read more about the crash on visiting this site.
http://www.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska.airlines.list/
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next
of kin or relatives to come over and lay claims to his money because we cannot
release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to
the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. Unfortunately, I learnt
that his supposed next of kin being his only daughter died along with him
in the plane crash leaving nobody with the knowledge of this funds behind
for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I and two other
officials in this department now decided to make business with you and
release the money to your possesion as the next of kin or beneficiary of
the funds for safety keeping and subsequent disbursement, since nobody is laying
claims to it and we don?t want this money to go back into Government
treasury as unclaimed bill.
The banking law and guidelines here stipulates that such money remained
after six(6) years will be transferred into banking treasury as unclaimed
funds. We agreed that 35% of this money would be for you as gratification
for assistance rendered, while the balance will be for my colleagues and
me.
I will visit your country for the disbursement according to the percentages
indicated above once this money gets into your account. Please be honest
to me as trust stands to be our watchword in this transaction. Our assurance
is that your role is risk free to accord this transaction the legality it
deserves as with all modalities put in place we are certain in actualizing
a
hitch free transfer of the funds without any complications. Kindly signify
your intention to assist by sending me an email for further procedures
relating to this transaction.
Please note that all necessary arrangement for the smooth release of these
funds to you has been finalized. We will discuss much in details when I
do
receive your response. If you are interested in this project contact me
as a matter of urgency for further directives.

Best regards,
Mr Brown Walter

From Don Newport

Good Day,

I hope my email meets you well. I am in need of your assistance. My Name
is Don Newport; I work with the Mining & Finance Dept with Standard Bank
London.

We have about $26.5 Million US dollars that was deposited by our late
client for over 7 years. My partners and I need a good partner someone we
can trust who can front as the beneficiary because we discovered that the
late client as no next of kin. It is legal.

Your own part of this deal is to find a safe Account where the funds can be
transfer into. Our own part is to prepare all the entire documents in your
favour making you the legal beneficiary. Once the funds get to you, you take
your 40% out and keep our own 60%.

If you are interested, I will furnish you with more details. But the whole
process is simple and we must keep a low profile at all times.

I look forward to your reply and co-operation, and I thank you in advance
as I anticipate your co-operation.

You can reach me on via this number +44 704 0128295 or send an email to:
donnewport@mail.nu

Waiting for your urgent response.

Regards,

Don Newport
