This story has often been repeated usuing different names. But, you can see that it is a fraud, when you note the impersonal way it is written.

If I had lost my father that way, I would have a lot of anger in me and that would show.

To: omar_dennis0012@yahoo.com

Dearest one

Compliments of the day, i hope this email reaches you in good condition. i am the above named person,Mr. Dennis Omar 21years old, from Ivory Coast the son of late Mr&Mrs Omar .It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad on the 13 of may 2003.

Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time.But God knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 4 years old,and since then my father took me so special. Before the death of my father on may 13 of 2003 called and told me that he has the sum of Sixteen Million, Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollars.(US$16,800,000.00 ) compile in a metallic box and deposited with one of the security company here in Abidjan Ivroy coast West Africa 10 of febuary 2002

Therefore i do not want you to be surprised at the nature of my contact with you, the truth is that i actually got your contact on the world wide web (www) while i was in search of a trustworthy person for assitance. Basically i need someone sent by God, who will not be of any mischief nor take undue advantage of my present situation.

Furthermore,I want you to help me remit these funds from the security firm as i am incapable of doing it myself,my late farther also said that the security company does not know the content of the safe Box.he decleared it as family treasure and used my name (Dennis ) to Deposit the Box as his only son for next of kin. He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business assocaites, That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money to and use it for investment purposes.

I want you to assist me in clearing this box from the security company and then transfering the fund inside the box into your account overseas as a beneficiary of the fund, and also use it for an investment purpose for me and as well to further my education.

I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and really don’t know what to do,this is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast.The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life.I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards.Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded.

Finally, i wish to tell you that after you might have remitted/collected the funds from the security company i intend for you to use the funds for the following;
1.To start a better life again and as well further my education.
2. Make a charity donation to ophanage home.
3. Meanwhile 20% of the total funds will be for you, for your
Assistance.

I will wait to hear from you in order to give details on how you can claim the funds on my behalf, i am positive that this will not take too much of your time. As such i urge you to look at this duty as a call for service from God, also a call for helping me out of this my present trial, a call to put a smile on the faces of people in distress.

Best Regards
Omar Dennis.

Just everything about this e-mail is a fraud. The names, e-mail accounts and the information itself are all wrong.

Just don’t make the mistake to believe that Austrian Lotteries would send a message like this out to the world.

Now Mr. Kema is trying the honerable “business man” approach. It’s not often you see this type of e-mail, but it seems obvious that he is targeting business owners.

Unfortunately, even experienced business men and women fall for this type of story. I have spoken countless victims who should have known better, or at least should have treated the offer with a healthy portion of skepsis

Dr. Mrs Luisa Ejercito Estrada
Metro-manila
philippines
Dear friend,
This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the
fact that we have not met. The message could be
strange but real, if you pay some attention to it. I
could have notified you about it at least for the sake
of your integrity. Please accept my apologies in
bringing this
message of goodwill to you, I have to say that I have
no intention of causing you any pain or harm.
I am LUISA E.ESTRADA, the wife of Mr. JOSEPH ESTRADA
the former President of Philippines presently in jail
and facing trial on charges of corruption and
embezzlement of public funds while in government. My
husband was recently impeached from office by a backed
uprising of mass demonstrators and the Senate. My
husband is presently in jail and facing trial on
charges of corruption, embezzlement, and the
mysterious charge of plunder which might lead to death
sentence. The present government is forcing my husband
out of Manila to avoid demonstration by his
supporters. During my husband’s regime as president of
Philippine, I realized some reasonable amount of money
from various deals that I successfully executed. I
have plans to invest this money for my children’s
future on real estate and industrial production. My
husband is not aware of this because I wish to do it
secretly for now.
Before my husband was impeached, I secretly
transferred the sum of
(Eighteen million United States currency) out of
Philippines and deposited the money with a security
firm that transports valuable goods and consignments
through diplomatic means. I also declared that the
consignment was solid gold and my foreign business
partner owned it. I am contacting you because I want
you to go to the security company and claim the money
on my behalf since I have declared that the
consignment belong to my foreign business partner. You
shall also be required to assist me in investment in
your country. I hope to trust you as a God fearing
person who will not sit on this money when you claim
it, rather assist me properly, I am willing to offer
you 25% of the funds for your sincere assistance. When
I receive your positive response I will let you know
where the security company is and also my son Carlito
(Daniel) will contact you with the details of this
project.
For now, let all our communication be by e-mail
because my lines are right now connected to the
Philippines Telecommunication Network services.
Please do send me your private telephone/ fax number
so that we can have a smooth communication.

Thank you and God bless you and your family
Warmest Regards,
DR. MRS LUISA EJERCITO ESTRADA
