From: sanihamza@netscape.net
To: unknown@192.168.120.254

Dear Friend,
This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the fact that we have not yet met. I humbly crave your indulgence in sending you this mail.
I have to say that I have no intentions of causing you any pains so i decided to contact you through this medium .As you read this, I don’t
want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die
someday.
My name is Sani Hamza, a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E. I have been
diagnosed with prostate and esophageal Cancer that was discovered very
late due to my laxity in caring for my health. It has defiled all form
of medicine and right now, I have only about a few months to live
according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so
well,
as I never really cared for anyone not even myself but my business.
Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to
people and only focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared
for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to
life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I
believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would
live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that I know
my
time is near, I have willed and given most of my properties and assets
to my immediate and extended family members and as well as a few close
friends and Schools in the UAE. I have decided to give alms to charity
organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on
earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations
in the U.A.E, London and Ireland. Now that my health has deteriorated
so
badly, I cannot do this my self any more. I once asked members of my
family to close one of my accounts and donate the money, which I!
have there to charity organization in Bulgaria; they refused and kept
the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they
seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my
money which is the huge cash deposit that I have with Financial Firm
Abroad .I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched
it to charity organizations and let them know that it is I Sani Hamza
that is making this generous donation.
I am writing this from my laptop computer in my hospital bed where I
wait for my time to come. I pray that God uses you to support and
assist
me with good heart

God be with you(Masallam).
Sani Hamza

NB: I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until
the task is accomplished as I don’t want anything that will jeopardize
my last wish. and Also I
will be contacting with you by email as I don’t want anybody to know
because they are always around me.

Here we go again. They write “foreign investment project”, which sounds good. They then go on to say they want to embezzle their company out of money and need your assistance to do it.

On the one side they say; “We are honerable and trustworthy partners” and then “let’s do an illegal deal with each other”.

Despite the long winded story, they still only want your money! My advice? Don’t touch it.

CHIEF. MARK EYADEMA
FINANCE/PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION DIRECTOR
FEDERAL MINISTRY OF PETROLEUM RESOURCES
FALOMO OFFICE COMPLEX
LOME,REPUBLIC OF TOGO
I am writing you on the strength of our search for a foreign investment opportunity, partnership or individual, who can be trusted to oversee a foreign investment project.

I got your contact information from a former director of Togolaise Import and Export Trade Promotion Council (TIETPC) who assured me your capability and good reputation in investment project. Although, I did not disclose to him the face value of the transaction which I want to discuss with you.

We are the officials of the TOGOLAISE LIQUIFIED NATURAL GAS (TLNG), an affiliate of Togolaise National Petroleum Cooperation (TNPC). After due deliberation with my colleagues in the ministry, I was therefore mandated as a matter of trust to contact you as a partner to whom we could transfer a reasonable amount for foreign investment project, hence the need for a foreign partner.

I have decided to seek for a confidential co-operation with you in the execution of this transaction described hereunder for the benefit of all parties and I hope you will maintain absolute secrecy because we are government officials.

Within my ministry where I work as a Director of Finance/Project Implementation, and with the co-operation of other top officials, we have in our possession an overdue payment bill which we want to transfer with the assistance and cooperation of a foreign company or an individual to receive the said fund on our behalf, or a reliable foreign non-company account that will accommodate such fund. The amount $27.3M USD represents some percentage of the contract value executed on behalf of my Ministry by a foreign contracting firm, which we the officials purposely over inflated for our own use.

Although the actual contract cost have been paid to the original contractor, leaving the balance in an escrow account which we have in principle received an approval to remit to a foreign bank account that you will provide. Since the Togolaise Government is determined to pay every Foreign Contractor all debts owe so as to maintain good relationship with foreign and non Government Financial Agencies, we then decided to include our bill for approval with the cooperation of some officials from the appropriate federal payment agency.

We are seeking your assistance in providing a good company’s account or any other bank account into which we can remit this money by acting as our main partner and trustee or acting as the original contractor. This we can do by swapping of account and changing of beneficiary and other forms of documentation upon application for claim to reflect the payment and approvals to be secured on your behalf.

This process being an internal arrangement with the department concern. I have the authority of my partners involved to propose that should you be willing to assist in the transaction, we will share the money as thus: 20% of the total fund for you the account owner, 75% for us (the officials) and 5% to settle any expenses in the course of this transaction.

Please be informed that my colleagues and myself will be depending on your kind advise and directives as we wish to privately invest our share of the fund into a foreign products both in Togo and your country as you may advise in due course. So you will be expected to provide us with a background information concerning yourself and your company to enable us make an evaluation and conclude on which line of business to take.

Note that it is important to maintain absolute confidentiality of this business because my colleagues and I are top Government Officials who have put in many years of meritorious service to our ministries and would not want to experience any kind of exposure that will jeopardize our image. I wish to assure you that this transaction is expected to take 14 working days for the fund to get into your nominated bank account.
send your reply to my private mail(markeyadema@netscape.net)for security reason.

Thanks as I patiently anticipate receiving your urgent response.

Faithfully yours,

CHIEF MARK EYADEMA

Personally said, anyone doing business in Africa, either has a private army working for him or he must be crazy.

It’s a paradox. On the one hand, a whole load of celebreties spend time and effort to raise cash and help for Africa and on the other you cannot trust any African, who calls himself a businessman.

Let me expand that a little. I am sure there are honerable people in Africa. The problem is, that anyone who goes to Africa on business or to work, usually gets taken for a ride at some time during their stay there. I have enough stories, even from friends, who say a white man, in their eyes, is rich. So they will pump you for a small ammount of money, and if you give it to them, their demands increase a thousand fold.

On top of this, it is hard to coroborate an African businessman or company as being trustworthy. This leaves only one course open. Don’t do business with Africans. That’s hard I know, but it’s better than losing your money.

A lot of these guys are trying to push this scam by using registered domain names. Usually there is no website to go with the domain name, such as this one.

There is, however, an e-mail server coupled to this domain. As such, it is not easily recognised as a fraud e-mail by people who’s Internet knowledge is on a user level.

On the other hand, by using a domain name, the criminals open themselves to being recognised as a real person. If you want to know more about that, send me an e-mail.

This is the first e-mail using the “Süddeutsche Klassenlotterie” as a front.

Anyone not familiar with this lottery company, would not know that this lottery does not work as this e-mail would suggest. This company does not have an international Lottery. So there are no offices in Great Britain or elsewhere.

The SKL also does not use an external company to make any payments to prize winners.

Sure these guys, don’t know all this. That’s why they are counting on a lot of people who also don’t know how the German Lottery works.
