[quote name="FABIO"]Lately I've been getting a slew of hoax/scam email to my main account, which I never give out to anyone that might put me on a mailing list so I've receive zero spam, this is a first. Kind of a mystery why I'm getting all this all of a sudden. first letter- From: "DR SANNI AHMED" <adoadamu@ecplaza.net > To: <***********> Sent: Friday, January 31, 2003 10:55 AM Subject: BUSINESS PROPOSAL DR.SANNI AHMED PLOT 1121 ADETOKUNBO ADEMOLA STREET VICTORIA ISLAND-LAGOS NIGERIA Dear Sir, RE: BUSINESS PROPOSAL - STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL. I am DR.SANNI AHMED., Chairman to the Contract Review Panel that was recently inaugurated by the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to review the activities of past military government with particular reference to contracts awarded by all ministries between 1990 to 1999. In the course of carrying out our assigned duties, we discovered the sum of USD40.5 (forty million, five hundred thousand dollars) only lying idle in a suspense account with our apex bank. This funds emanated from grossly over-invoiced contracts awarded to conglomerate of foreign firms by the Petroleum Ministry on behalf of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation. On completion of our assignment, this amount was deliberately not included in our report because we want to capitalize on this once in a lifetime opportunity to benefit and make a fortune out of it. The only option we have to achieve our aims and objective is to have this fund transferred to a country of our choice where it can be kept in trust and safe custody for us. We are however handicapped at the moment by our status as civil servants, which barred us from operating foreign accounts while still in government service. Thus, through some discreet inquiries from our Chambers of Commerce, you and your organization were revealed as being quite astute in private entrepreneurship. On this premise, we have no doubt in your ability to handle a business of this nature, which informed our desire and wish to enter into a partnership with you. This business involves the remittance of this amount into your bank account with the hope of travelling down to meet you physically in order to receive our share. We hope to invest some in profitable ventures in your country based on your advise while the balance will be repatriated home as foreign earnings. We have mapped out strategies and all paperwork is in place to ensure a 100% success. The nature of your business at present does not really matter because in the world over, bigger firms do bid for big contracts especially in third world countries like ours and can subcontract part of it to other firms for execution. That is you or your firm will be regarded as one of those that executed one of such projects and therefore entitled to receive the over-invoiced amount of the contract value since the original contractor has been paid. Be rest assured that this transaction is 100% risk free as there is actually no risk is involved either now or in the future for we are well connected in official circle. Given our level of commitment at the moment, we want to assure you that with full dedication on your part, the objective of having this fund remitted would have been realized within a period of two weeks. It is hereby expressly agreed in principle that at the end of the transaction, you will be entitled to 25% of the entire sum, 74% will be for my colleagues and while 1% has been earmarked to take care of any expenses that might arise in the course of this transaction. If you are interested in this proposal, please call or send me an e-mail with via:adoadamu@ecplaza.net for more clarifications. If however you are not interested, still let me know to enable me search for someone else to carry out this business with. I anticpate a timely response from you. Thanks. Yours Sincerely, DR.SANNI AHMED second letter- From: "JOHN HAMOND" <johnhamond@rediffmail.com> To: <**************> Sent: Friday, January 31, 2003 12:01 PM Subject: RELIABLE AND REPUTABLE PERSON FROM: JOHN HAMOND E-MAIL:johnhamond@rediffmail.com Attn, You may be surprised to receive this letter from me, Since you do not know me personally ."My Name is John Hamond " The purpose of my introduction is that" Before the death of my father, he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of US30 million (Thirty Million United States dollars),in one of the private security company, as he fore saw the looming danger in Zimbabwe this money was deposited in a box as gem stones to avoid much demurrage from security company. This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the Farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. This land problem came when Zimbabwean President Mr .Robert Mugabe introduced a new Land Act Reform wholly affecting the rich white farmers and some few black Farmers and this resulted to the killing and mob action by Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in the society. In fact a lot of people were killed Because of this Land reform Act for which my father "Moses Hamond" was one of the victims. It is against this background that, I and my family fled Zimbabwe for fear of our lives and I currently staying in the Netherlands in a village called Zealand, where my family are seeking political asylum and more so I have decided to transfer my father's money to a more reliable foreign account. As the eldest son of my father, I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of my government who are bent on taking everything we have got. The South African government seems to be playing along with them. I am faced with the dilemma of moving this amount of money out of South Africa for fear of going through the same experience in future, both countries have similar political history. As a business man, I am seeking for a partner who I have to entrust my future and that of my family in his hands, I must let you know that this transaction is risk free. If you accept to assist me and my family, all I want you to do for me, is to make an arrangements with the security company to clear the consignment(funds) from their affiliate office here in the Netherlands as I have already given directives for the consignment to be brought to the Netherlands from South Africa .But before then all modalities will have to be put in place like change of ownership to the consignment and more importantly this money I intend to use for investment. I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to have certain percentage of the money for nominating your account for this transaction. Or you can go into Partnership with me for the proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. If you do not prefer a partnership I am willing to give you 10% of the money while the remaining 90% will be for my investment in your country. Contact me with the above via e-mail because I do not have a telephone due to my political assylum status, while I implore you to maintain the absolute secrecy required in this transaction.

Warmest regards, Joseph Mobutu Sese-Seko Seems I'm pretty fucking popular with the whole deposed dictator crowd lately. I vaguely remember something like this that went around a few years ago. What surprises me is I'm getting a new one every few hours. I'm also not sure what the point of the whole thing is. Dupe the person into travelling all the way across the atlantic/pacific for nothing? Have someone you hate in the Netherlands prank called 24/7? Do they pull the old "just put down the initial $20,000 investment to be eligable for your FREE MONEY!" bit later on? WHO WISHES TO BACK ME ON THIS? YOU WILL RECEIVE 25% OF MY TOTAL EARNINGS! 100% GUARENTEED RISK FREE! [/quote]
