Dearest One,
I am Miss Madinah Abed young medical student from Cote d’Ivoire West Africa. I would like to go into a partnership with you; it is my pleasure to contact you for a business venture which I intend to establish in your country. Though I have not met with you before but I believe one has to risk confident in succeed sometimes in life. There is this huge amount ($10.500, 000, 00 Dollars) Ten Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars which my late Father deposited on my name in the suspense account with one Bank here in Abidjan before his Death.
Now I have decided to invest this money in your country or anywhere safe enough outside Africa for security and political reasons. I want you to help me claim and retrieve these fund from the Bank and transfer it into your personal account in your country for investment purposes, since the money is deposited in the suspense account I can not have access to the fund until it is transferred out from the account that is why I am contacting you to assists me and see that the Bank transfer the money into your personal account for to me to leave this country and meet you over there.
I am honourably seeking your assistance etc.etc.etc.
Ah, en dan krijg jij een deel als bedankje – nadat je wel eerst kosten zus en kosten zo moet betalen 😉
Zo kreeg ik ooit een trieste mail uit die regio: er was iemand omgekomen bij een auto-ongeluk, hij was Heel Rijk. En wat bleek nou! Ik was zijn enige nog levende familielid! En ze hadden me zomaar gevonden via mijn schuilnaam! En al die familie van me die met volle naam in alle foonboeken staat, vonden ze niet!
(Ik wacht nog op die miljoenen…)
