Would you belive it? A former Angolan rebel ran off with a pile of loot to Spain. Now he’s looking for some good soul to set up business with. I wonder if he has ever heard about “Money Laundering Laws”?

To: xxx@xxx.xxx

Dear Sir./ Madam

How are you and your business? I am very interested in doing business in your country, therefore I would like to seek your assistance and help. I am particularly interested in properties but your advise on other areas of private sector would be appreciated. I got your contact at the world trade center here in spain and I am of the believe that you would be of great help in guiding me to a successful exploration of the investment potential of your country which grantee good capital returns and human security. As a result of this, I can take you in confidence basically because of the source of my fund hereby believing that your assistance will be of profitable advantage to us.

I am Mr.BABA BELLO formerly of United Libration Army of Northern Angola {UNITA} under the military leadership of Gen. Gonas Savimbi. My comrades and I sensing the weakness of our Libration movement and loss of confidence in facing a better trained and equiped fedral gorverment Army towards the last one year. We decided to escape with some fund under our care. We deposited this money with a private security firm in Spain, it was deposited as a family treasure so as not to let the company know the real content.

This was made possible, true special arrangement. South Africa however not being safe for me because of it closeness to Angola, I escaped to spain were I’m staying at the moment as a refugee. I would therefore like you to help me in every possible way in securing this fund to your country since
I intend to live and run my business there. The amount involved is, FOURTY million five hundred thounsand united states dollar {$40.5m}

Sir, I would like you to understand my modesty in imploring for your help which is categorically due to my lack of business experience and exposure.
I also want you to ackwnoledge the fact that I am a carrier soldier who by virtue of the war was opportune to posses the amount of money with me.

This fund being the basis of my future and business ambition, your friendship, assistance and advise will be immensely appriciated while your effort will be rewarded by parting with some 30% of the total fund to you. Be also assured that you stand no risk of any kind as it was an event during a war situation and I look forward to your urgent reply.

best regard.

Mr, Bababello aku
