I find the subject line is remarkable.

The Africans have obviously recognised that trust, especially online, is necessary to enable them to get people to contact them.

What they have not recognised, is the fact that you can’t tell someone you are trustworthy, but you also have to prove it. Not only in word, but also in your deeds and how you treat people.

Of course, that is something the Africans don’t have the need or time for.

RE:TEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS INHERITANCE CLAIM (US$10,500,000,00
—-

Attn       20-Feb-09
Michael Holdcroft

Please do not be offended if this message comes to you as I ought to have sought your consent and approval before e-mailing this proposal to you but I acted as I did due to the importance and urgency of this business. Which ever way you may look at it, let it please you to respond quickly either negatively or positively.

My name is Barrister Fedrick Obutu,I am a Legal representative, and Attorney to Late Mr Phillip Cornell. In the Year 2004, my client by name Mr.Phillip Cornell passed away,leaving behind a cash inheritance of Ten million Five hundred thousand United States Dollars ($10,500,000,00).My late client and bosom friend grew up in a “Motherless Babies Home”. He had no family, no beneficiary nor next of kin to the inheritance consignment left behind at the finance security company batch no xx2604AF. The Financial law of inheritance clearly allows for the deceased security company to use deceased consignment as deemed fit, should the inheritance consignment be left unclaimed after the death of the consignment owner.

As you may know,next of kinship is not limited to relation of the deceased,nor is it confided to the circuit of parental relationship,rather it is by choice of the benefactor as regards to whom he wish to make his WILL to(beneficiary) either formally by write up,or informally by secret information disclosure to beneficiary be him/her business partner,relations, Kinsmen,Or Friends or Well Wishers.and whereby the deceased did not mention anybody as the next of kin as in this case, then whoever that comes up with concrete information as contained in his account establishment file/record is assumed to be the next Of kin automatically, because you wouldn’t Have any knowledge of these secret information of the deceased if you are not his next of Kin Or close to him either by relationship or friendship as in private disclosure and i have all this informations and will forward it to you at the appropriate time.

I have contacted you to assist me in repartriating this fund left behind by my client before it gets confisicated or declared unserviceable by the Bank where this huge amount was deposited. The Bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have his account confisicated within the next twenty one official working days as the policy of the bank is to overrun over four years of unserviceable and dormant accounts.They have a veritable excuse as they knew that my client was dead.

Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relations all this while, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased. This is to enable us salvage the proceeds of his account and get it paid to you instead. I have this obssession that if the directors of the Bank confiscated the money, it might not be put into proper and useful ventures to benefit the poor masses of this world. I was contacted and all necessary burial arrangements were made and the remains of the family buried in the public cementary. Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients either blood families or the extended relations. My concerted search proved abbortive. Perhaps, you may not be related to him but it behoves on us to seize this golden opportunity to salvage his savings since I could not locate any relation of his either dead or alive..

The Inheritance Law clearly leaves the proof of who is or is not the next of kin, to the deceased Lawyer to prove. As the deceased Lawyer,the Law says l have the final say of who is the beneficiary of the deceased consighnment.

This is 100% percent legal. As a lawyer I know this.As this will be a testimony for you and me if you make up your mind,for the claim.

All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you and me from any breach of the law. Therefore, should this proposal appeal to you and on receipt of your positive response, we shall then discuss the sharing ratio and modalities for transfer.

Regards,
Fedrick Obutu

You have to give to the Africans. They certainly know how to write messages in semi official language.

What makes me wonder is, why do people answer this kind of message when it talks about money from Nigeria being held back by the FBI?

I would most people would be scared out of their wits if the FBI suggested they may be doing anything illegal.

ATTENTION FUND BENEFICIARY,

This is an official advice from the fbi foreign Remittance / telegraphic dept., it has come to our notice that the C.B.N Bank Nigeria district has released 10,500,000.00 US dollars into bank of America in your name as the beneficiary, by inheritance means.

The C.B.N Bank Nigeria knowing fully well that they do not have Enough facilities to effect this payment from the united kingdom to your account, used what we know as a secret diplomatic transit payment (s.t.d.p) to pay this fund through wire transfer, they used this means to complete the payment.

They are still, waiting for confirmation from you on the already Transferred funds which were made in direct transfer so that they can do final crediting to your account. Secret diplomatic payments are not made unless the funds are related to terrorist activities why must your payment be made in secret transfer, if your transaction is legitimate, if you are not a terrorist, then why did you not receive the money directly into your account; this is a pure coded, means of payment?

Records which we have had with this method of payment in the past Has always been related to terrorist acts, we do not want you to get into trouble as soon as these funds reflect in your account in the U.S.A, so it is our duty as a world wide commission to correct this little problem before this fund will be credited into your personal account.

Due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary security by the American authorities when funds come from outside of Europe, and the Middle East, the f.b.i bank commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on its way to deliver payment of $10,500,000.00 to debit your reserve account and pay you through a secured diplomatic transit account (s.d.t.a). We govern and oversee funds transfer for the World Bank and the rest of the world.

We advice you contact us immediately, as the funds have been Stopped and are being held in our custody, until you can be able to provide us with a diplomatic immunity seal of transfer (dist) within 3 days from the world local bank that authorize the transfer from where the funds was transferred from to certify that the funds that you are about to receive from Nigeria are antiterrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to cross and impound the Payment, we shall release the funds immediately we receive this legal documents.

We have decided to contact you directly to acquire the proper Verifications and proof from you to show that you are the rightful person to receive this fund, because of the amount involve, we want to make sure is a clean and legal money you are about to receive. Be informed that the fund are now in United State in your name, but right now we have ask the bank not to release the fund to anybody that comes to them, unless we ask them to do so, because we have to carry out our investigations first before releasing the fund to you. Note that the fund is in the BANK OF AMERICA right now, but we have ask them not to credit the fund to you yet, because we need a solid proof and Verifications from you before releasing the funds.

So to this regards you are to re-assure and proof to us that what you are about to receive is a clean money by sending to us FBI Identification Record and also Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer(DIST) to satisfy to us that the money your about to receive is legitimate and real money. You are to forward the documents to us immediately if you have it in your possession, if you don’t have it let us know so that we will direct and inform you where to obtain the document and send to us so that we will ask the bank holding the funds, the Bank Of America to go ahead Crediting your account immediately.

These Documents are to be issued to you from the World Local Bank that Authorized the transfer, so get back to us immediately if you don’t have the document so that we will inform you the particular place to obtain the document in United Kingdom (U.K), because we have come to realize that the fund was Authorized by (H.S.B.C) Bank in London.

An FBI Identification Record and Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer (DIST) often referred to as a Criminal History Record or Rap Sheet, is a listing of certain information taken from fingerprint submissions retained by the FBI in connection with arrests and, in some instances, federal employment, naturalization, or military service.

These Condition Is Valid until 26th of DEC. 2008 after we shall take actions on Canceling the payment and then charge you for illegally moving funds out of Nigeria.

We have always been fascinated by stories of pirates and lost treasures. I think almost anyone would fall for the idea of finding a lost fortune on an island, in the attic or a secret passageway in Grandma’s old house.

That is part of the secret behind the abandoned or deceased accounts, that the Africans like to tell us about. They play on the secret wishes that people have to make their lives better.

So they lead unsuspecting victims down the rabbit hole which unfortunately, does not have a happy end.

Although this fellow says he got the money through a crude oil deal, it doesn’t really matter. As usual, the Africans are using a story which could have a little credability to lull people into thinking this could be real.

It’s not.

Ever since the crisis really took hold of the markets and banks over a month ago, I have been waiting to see if the Africans are changing their tactics. This one, although extremely short, does look as though they are giving it a try.

Sometimes I feel the Africans are quite naive. The story told here of the Govenor of a state bank who would actually personally deal with someone about an inheritance matter is pretty far fetched.

Sometimes one of the Africans has a fantastic idea. This is one of them.

After 9/11 the US has been following money transfers the world over as one of the methods of combating Terrorism. Of course, money transfers not belonging to terrorist organizations are also being followed. This is where this message is trying to profit from.

Although the writer tries to emulate an official message from the FBI, he has no command of official bureaucratic language.
