I dont get it. How does this end up as a scam, he didnt ask for money or anything. What happens with this?

wheew! good news!

I contacted Mr.Daniel Obinna... seems in order to xfer the $$$$ from the security company I just need to set up a bank account. I sent Mr.Daniel Obinna all my info and the bank account is all ready to go, except one thing... in order for the bank account to be valid I need to wire some cash to it... min deposit is like $10k.

once I put that cash in the account they will xfer the 1.7 million... oh boy are they stupid or what? I'm gonna keep it all the account is only in my name!!!!
uppy:


(this is how this is a scam)

got ya, figured the person would be have to pay for the expenses upfront and be reimbursed with the $$$ or it would be identity theft.

variations of these scams can be found at ebolamonkeyman.com

I think they have an automatic reply notification set up with these emails because I used to get them every once in a while and just deleted them, but one day I decided to open one up and now I get one everyday. They even use someone who died that has the same last name as mine. I wonder how many people actually fall into these scams.....

Naseema52@caramail.com

Compliments of the season, Grace, Peace and love from this part of the
Atlantic to you.

I hope my letter does not cause you too much embarrassment as I write
to you in good faith. Please excuse my intrusion into your private life.
I am Barrister Naseem Ahmed (SAN); I represent Mariam Abacha, Wife of
the late Gen. Sani Abacha, who was the former military head of state in
Nigeria. He died in 1998, and since his death, the family has been
loosing a lot of money due to vindictive government officials who are hell
bent on dealing with the family.

Consequently, the family has asked me to seek for a foreign partner who
can work with us as to move out the total sum of US$75,000,000.00
(Seventy Five Million United States
Dollars) presently in their possession.
This money was of course, acquired by the late president and is now
kept secretly by the family. The Swiss government has already frozen all
the accounts of the family in Switzerland, and some other countries
would soon follow to do the same. This bid by some government officials to
deal with this family has made it necessary that we seek your
assistance in receiving this money and in investing it on behalf of the family.

This must be a joint venture transaction and we must all work together.
Since this money is still cash, extra security measures have been taken
to protect it from theft or seizure, pending when agreement is reached
on when to move it into any of this countries Europe, London, Canada
pending on our agreement.

I have personally worked out all modalities for the peaceful conclusion
of this transaction. The transaction definitely would be handled in
phases and the first phase will involve the moving of US$25,000,000.00
{Twenty Five Million United States Dollars}.
My Madam is willing to give you a reasonable percentage of this money
as soon as the transaction is concluded.
I will, however, based on the grounds that you are willing to work with
us and also all contentious issues discussed before the commencement of
this transaction. You may also discuss your percentage before we start
to work. As soon as I hear from you, I will give you all necessary
details as to how we intend to carry out the whole transaction.

Please, do not entertain any fears, as all necessary modalities are in
place, and I assure you of all success and safety in this transaction.
Please, this transaction requires absolute confidentiality and you
would be expected to treat it as such until the funds are moved out of this
country to where you intend to receive them.
In compliance with this you are to forward to me the following details:
your complete names and address, confidential telephone and fax
numbers, this is to enable me perfect all the necessary documentation with the
security firm and move this money across to your country of choice if
need be.

Please, you will also ignore this letter and respect our trust in you
by not exposing this transaction, even if you cannot render any
assistance.

I look forward to working with you.

Thank you.

Truly yours,

Barrister Naseem Ahmed (SAN).

Nigerians have stole millions and millions from Americans using various internet scams. People have finally caught on but for a while this was a big problem. Lot of gullible people around. I knew a (not too smart) guy that thought for sure he was getting like 15 mill and he was gonna give me a mill. I almost didn't wanna break his heart that it was a scam. He didn't want to believe me as the guy was a "military man" and a "man of god".

I received this one and almost fell for it

HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL
FROM: GEORGE WALKER BUSH
DEAR SIR / MADAM,
I AM GEORGE WALKER BUSH, SON OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA GEORGE HERBERT WALKER BUSH, AND CURRENTLY SERVING AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THIS LETTER MIGHT SURPRISE YOU BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT MET NEITHER IN PERSON NOR BY CORRESPONDENCE. I CAME TO KNOW OF YOU IN MY SEARCH FOR A RELIABLE AND REPUTABLE PERSON TO HANDLE A VERY CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS TRANSACTION, WHICH INVOLVES THE TRANSFER OF A HUGE SUM OF MONEY TO AN ACCOUNT REQUIRING MAXIMUM CONFIDENCE.
I AM WRITING YOU IN ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCE PRIMARILY TO SEEK YOUR ASSISTANCE IN ACQUIRING OIL FUNDS THAT ARE PRESENTLY TRAPPED IN THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ. MY PARTNERS AND I SOLICIT YOUR ASSISTANCE IN COMPLETING A TRANSACTION BEGUN BY MY FATHER, WHO HAS LONG BEEN ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN THE EXTRACTION OF PETROLEUM IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND BRAVELY SERVED HIS COUNTRY AS DIRECTOR OF THE UNITED STATES CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY.
IN THE DECADE OF THE NINETEEN-EIGHTIES, MY FATHER, THEN VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, SOUGHT TO WORK WITH THE GOOD OFFICES OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ TO REGAIN LOST OIL REVENUE SOURCES IN THE NEIGHBORING ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN. THIS UNSUCCESSFUL VENTURE WAS SOON FOLLOWED BY A FALLING OUT WITH HIS IRAQI PARTNER, WHO SOUGHT TO ACQUIRE ADDITIONAL OIL REVENUE SOURCES IN THE NEIGHBORING EMIRATE OF KUWAIT, A WHOLLY-OWNED U.S.-BRITISH SUBSIDIARY.
MY FATHER RE-SECURED THE PETROLEUM ASSETS OF KUWAIT IN 1991 AT A COST OF SIXTY-ONE BILLION U.S. DOLLARS ($61,000,000,000). OUT OF THAT COST.
THIRTY-SIX BILLION DOLLARS ($36,000,000,000) WERE SUPPLIED BY HIS PARTNERS IN THE KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA AND OTHER PERSIAN GULF MONARCHIES, AND SIXTEEN BILLION DOLLARS ($16,000,000,000) BY GERMAN AND JAPANESE PARTNERS.
BUT MY FATHER'S FORMER IRAQI BUSINESS PARTNER REMAINED IN CONTROL OF THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ AND ITS PETROLEUM RESERVES.
MY FAMILY IS CALLING FOR YOUR URGENT ASSISTANCE IN FUNDING THE REMOVAL OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ AND ACQUIRING THE PETROLEUM ASSETS OF HIS COUNTRY, AS COMPENSATION FOR THE COSTS OF REMOVING HIM FROM POWER.
UNFORTUNATELY, OUR PARTNERS FROM 1991 ARE NOT WILLING TO SHOULDER THE BURDEN OF THIS NEW VENTURE, WHICH IN ITS UPCOMING PHASE MAY COST THE SUM OF 100 BILLION TO 200 BILLION DOLLARS ($100,000,000,000 - $200,000,000,000), BOTH IN THE INITIAL ACQUISITION AND IN LONG-TERM MANAGEMENT.
WITHOUT THE FUNDS FROM OUR 1991 PARTNERS, WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE THE OIL REVENUE TRAPPED WITHIN IRAQ. THAT IS WHY MY FAMILY AND OUR COLLEAGUES ARE URGENTLY SEEKING YOUR GRACIOUS ASSISTANCE. OUR DISTINGUISHED COLLEAGUES IN THIS BUSINESS TRANSACTION INCLUDE THE SITTING VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, RICHARD CHENEY, WHO IS AN ORIGINAL PARTNER IN THE IRAQ VENTURE AND FORMER HEAD OF THE ALLIBURTON OIL COMPANY, AND CONDOLEEZA RICE, WHOSE PROFESSIONAL DEDICATION TO THE VENTURE WAS DEMONSTRATED IN THE NAMING OF A CHEVRON OIL TANKER AFTER HER.
I WOULD BESEECH YOU TO TRANSFER A SUM EQUALING TEN TO TWENTY-FIVE PERCENT (10-25 %) OF YOUR YEARLY INCOME TO OUR ACCOUNT TO AID IN THIS IMPORTANT VENTURE. THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL FUNCTION AS OUR TRUSTED INTERMEDIARY. I PROPOSE THAT YOU MAKE THIS TRANSFER BEFORE THE FIFTEENTH (15TH) OF THE MONTH OF APRIL.
I KNOW THAT A TRANSACTION OF THIS MAGNITUDE WOULD MAKE ANYONE APPREHENSIVE AND WORRIED. BUT I AM ASSURING YOU THAT ALL WILL BE WELL AT THE END OF THE DAY. A BOLD STEP TAKEN SHALL NOT BE REGRETTED, I ASSURE YOU. PLEASE DO BE INFORMED THAT THIS BUSINESS TRANSACTION IS 100% LEGAL. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO CO-OPERATE IN THIS TRANSACTION, PLEASE CONTACT OUR INTERMEDIARY REPRESENTATIVES TO FURTHER DISCUSS THE MATTER.
I PRAY THAT YOU UNDERSTAND OUR PLIGHT. MY FAMILY AND OUR COLLEAGUES WILL BE FOREVER GRATEFUL. PLEASE REPLY IN STRICT CONFIDENCE TO THE CONTACT NUMBERS BELOW.
SINCERELY WITH WARM REGARDS,
GEORGE WALKER BUSH
