Taking the Nigerian Scam Up a Notch

[wolf]

Interesting assortment today ... as a good Muslim, I'm supposed to help this lady out:

Assalamo Alaykom.

Dearest one,

My sincere greetings to you,and how are you doing?. My intention of contacting you is to solicit your assistance for a project which will be mutually beneficial.Though I know my decision to contact you is to a large extent unconventional, the prevailing circumstances necessitated my action.

I am Mrs. Amina Muhammed Libya. I am married to Late Mallam Jamil Ahmed of blessed memory was an oil explorer in Libya and Kuwait for twelve years before he died in the year 2000. We were married for twelve years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both devoted Muslims. Since his death I too have been battling with both Cancer and fibroid problems. When my late Husband was alive he made a huge deposit in millions of US dollars with a Deposit Company in oversea. (I will tell you the amount as we proceed).

Recently, my doctor told me that I have only six months to live due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to either a Muslem organization or devoted Muslim individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instructs herein. I want this Muslim organization or individual to use this money in all sincerity to fund mosques, orphanages, widows, and also propagating the word of ALLAH and to ensure that the society upholds the views and belief of the Holy Quran.

The Holy Quran emphasizes so much on ALLAH'S benevolence and this has encourage me to take the bold step. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are into some radical organisations and I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an Unholy manner. Hence the reasons for this bold decision. I know that after death I will be with ALLAH the most beneficent and the most merciful.

I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health, because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to know about this development. With ALLAH all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply on Email: I shall give you the contact information of the Deposit Company in oversea where the money was deposited. I will also issue a letter of authority to the Deposit Company authorizing them that the said fund Have being willed to you and a copy of such authorization will be forwarded to you. I want you and the Muslim community where you reside to always pray for me. My happiness is that I lived a true devoted Muslims worthy of emulation Whoever that wants to serve ALLAH must serve him in truth and in fairness. I will not stipulate any precise amount to reward you as it will have to be on pre-negotiated terms,based on your level of involvment.

Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give room in sourcing for a Muslim organization or a devoted Muslim for this same purpose. Until I hear from you email my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders.

May the Almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect you.

Allah Hafiz.

Amina Muhammed

And my brotherhood in Christ is called upon here ... to help a poor former muslim who saw the light of christ reclaim his family fortune that was stripped from him.

Dear Beloved in Christ,
I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
I am formally Ahmed Usman from UAE.I was born into a devoted
Muslim family.All through my life i have been doing business and I
was into gold mining and selling.
I met our creator and the meciful one Almigthy God when i was having
a business deal with one of my partners from Italy and from the day I
became a born again christian my name changed to Edword Carl.
On 10th Feburary 2004 myself and my family and my business partner took
a flight from kish to sharjah and we flew kish airline.We had a plane
crash and all members of my family including my very good friend lost
thier lives.I give thanks to God that I am one of the lucky ones that
survived the crash.The airline was under the management of one Mr Shabab
Attarzadeh who was later sacked after this incidence.I had to return to
my base in London and I am now left with my relatives to take care
of me.Owing to the fact that I was born into a Moslim home and my
family members know that I am now a devoted Christian,they have neglected me
and left me to suffer pain.I know I am not going to survive this whole
pain anymore.what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness and now that I
have developed paralyses from my waist region downward i am taking this
bold step to let you know that I want to leave in your care the sum of
$12.6M(Twelve Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars) i deposited!
in a security company for the enhancement and propagation of the word
of Almigthy God. Having known my condition I decided to donate this
fund to a Church,or a Christian organisation or better still a Christian
that will utilize this funds the way I am going to instruct here in.
My main aim of doing this is for the propagation and upholding of the
message of God.My target area is the youth whom the future of any
great country largely lies on.In Asia,you find out that the
message of God has not yet really gotten there.The message of God
must not only be preached and upheld,but also our youths have to be
called back to the right path and thereby reawaken their consciousness.
I want you also to use this funds for the poor and the needy.Build old
peoples home and orphanages.For the fact that my relatives are not
ready to comply with me and they claim Islam is the way I am now
resting my dream in life on your shoulders.Even as you agree to help me
carry out this duty i want you always remember that:
1. God won't ask what kind of car you drove, but will ask how many
people you drove who didn't have transportation.
2.God won't ask what your highest salary was, but will ask if you
compromised your character ormorals to obtain that salary.
3.God won't ask the square footage of your house, but will ask how
many people you welcomed into your home.
4.God won't ask about the fancy clothes you had in your closet, but
will ask how many of those clothes helped the needy.
5.God won't ask about your social status, but will ask what kind of
class you displayed.
6.God won't ask how many material possessions you had, but will ask
if they dictated your life.
7.God won't ask how much overtime you worked, but will ask if you
worked overtime for your family and loved ones.
8.God won't ask how many promotions you received, but will ask how
you promoted others.
9.God won't ask what your job title was, but will ask if you did your
job to the best of your ability.
10.God won't ask what you did to help yourself, but will ask what you
did to help others.
11.God won't ask how many friends you had, but will ask how many
people to whom youwere a true friend.
12.God won't ask what you did to protect your rights, but will ask
what you did to protect the rights of others.
13.God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, but will ask how you
treated your neighbors.
14.God won't ask about the color of your skin, but will ask about the
content of your character.
15.God won't ask how many times your deeds matched your words, but
will ask how many times they didn't.
For the now I dont want any calls from you because of the presence of
my relatives that are always around me and I dont want them to know my
plans.Do get back at me to my private mail address edwordcarl@telkom.net
.
Hoping to hear from you soonest and do notify your interest to help me
to propagate Christianity.
May the peace and blessing of God be upon you.

May God bless you as you respond to my plea.

Yours in Christ.

And I think I should beware of Greeks bearing gifts. I heard that somewhere ...

Hello

Hope you are doing great and sound? I am Dr. Walker Beattie Barrister at law and attorney to late Sir Mark Stephanopoulos, a Greek Merchant otherwise known as my client who was based in the United Kingdom and died of complications from injuries sustained after a ghastly motor accident.

As the attorney to Sir Mark Stephanopoulos I was his confidant as he shared with me virtually everything about himself, his business and family. I was his attorney for 15years and during that period I wrote his WILL and was also named as the executor, which has since been fulfilled. I am also aware due to my closeness to him that the amount Ten Million Pounds he deposited with a bank in Europe was not willed out. He told me about this on his sick bed and even instructed that I should prepare a codicil to that effect, however before I could finish my work he had died.

After his death, funeral and subsequent execution of his will I went into action to ascertain the information passed unto me by my client. My investigation conformed to the information; at that point I knew I had to do something to move the funds out of the bank and knowing that I cannot do this alone I have decided to contact you and seek your assistance and acceptance to be the next of kin to the estate.

Aside my humble self and you, the relationship manager (account officer) of my client knows about this, for he was very helpful during my discreet investigation, through him I was able to see the deposit paper work of the money which confirmed that there is no next of kin to the funds. It is necessary for us to move the money out of the bank on time because if we do not do this within the next two years the bank would regard the money as sundry funds, which would give them the right to claim the money.

I cannot move the money in my name because he is my client, for it could arose suspicion, his account officer cannot do the same, hence the importance of your assistance. Have my assurance that there is nothing to fear about, as we also need your assurance that you would work with me without fear or favour to achieve our desired objective. The legal back up is no problem for I would be responsible. Since the codicil was not ready before his death, letter of administration without Will would be secured from the probate office, with this letter I would personally apply on your behalf to the bank for the release of the funds to you.

What I require from you to enable us achieve the above are your;

Names
Address
Date of Birth
Telephone and Fax numbers

Upon receipt of a confirmation of acceptance from you a sharing ratio would be worked out between the three of us and communicated to you along with my telephone number.

Take care and have a nice day.

Sincerely,

Walker Beattie
