This is just an adaption of earlier e-mails.

Funny though, the contact man is in “Ouagadougou”.

Doesn’t that sound familiar?

Felix sent an empty e-mail, but added the massage as a text file. A bit unusual and there is no real reason why he should do this, so I just estimate he has no real pc experience.

Hello Friend,

My name is Mr. Hubert .M. Philippé an Accountant with a reputable BANK here my country Abidjan - Ivory cost. I am the personal financial adviser to Engr.Herman , a foreigner, who used to work with an oil servicing company here in Ivory Coast. My client, his wife and their children were involved in the ill-fated accident which took place at Abidjan in which all died. Since then I have made several inquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives but has been unsuccessful. After several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his last name over the Internet to see if I could locate any member of h is family hence I contacted you.

Of particular interest is this huge deposit with our Bank here in, where the deceased has an account valued at about ($17.5 million). They have issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or the Bank will declare the account unservisable and thereby send the funds to the Bank Treasury. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over this years now. I will seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you are a Foreigner with the same last name, so that the proceeds of this account valued at ($17.5 million) can be paid to you and then you and I can share the money. Further more, this proposal is a very confidentail deal, so Ignore it if you are not interested, but if you are interested also can handle this with me mostly financailly, kindly furnish me with your details immediately. Full name, Address, Date of birth, Telephone/Fax numbers, e-mail Address. So that i wi ll introduce you official to our Bank. I Guarantee you risk free of this transaction and good reward to you if you assist me diligently. TRUSTED.

Thanking you for your anticipated cooperation.

Get this! Mike Ugochukwu sends you an scam e-mail. So far so good, but …

he tells you a tale of a huge fund transfer and calls himself Barrister Matthew Duke. If you look at the sender e-mail address, you will also see that Mike also calls himself Barrister Godwin Ugochukwu.

This is a great fairy tale, only the prince is not what he says he is.

Dear Friend

It is obvious that this proposal will come to you as a suprise. This is because we have not met before but i am inspired to sending you this email by the huge fund transfer opportunity that will be of mutual benefit to the two of us.
However, I am Barrister Matthew Duke, [the personal Attorney to the late Engr. Ronald Harriert, a national of Northern American], who used to work with Shell Petroleum Development company (SPDC) in Nigeria. On November 2002, my client,his wife And their three children were involved in a car accident along Sagamu/Lagos Express Road.

Unfortunately they all lost their lives in the event of the accident,Since then I have made several enquiries to several Embassies to locate any of my clients extended relatives,this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccesful attempts,I decided to trace his relatives over the Internet to locate any member of his family but of no avail, hence I contacted you, since you have the same surname with the deceased.
I contacted you to assist in repartriating the money and property left behind by my client, I can easily convince the bank with my legal practice that you are the only surviving relation of my client.Otherwise the Estate he left behind will be confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly, the Bank where the deceased had an account valued at about $15million U.S dollars (fifteen million U.S. America dollars). Conseqently,The bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next ten official working days.
Since i have been unsuccesful in locating the relatives for over several years now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased,so that the proceeds of this account valued at $15million U.S dollars can be paid to your account and then you and i can share the money. 60% to me and 35% to you, while 5% should be for expenses or tax as your governmen may require.
Please all I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through and also Forward the following to me for the filling of the application of claim in your name urgently;

Your Full Name:

Your Age and Gender :

Your Nationality:

Your House Address:

Your Occupation:

Your Tele-phone and Fax No:

Note also that this transaction must be kept strictly confidential because of it’s nature.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me VIA this my confidential email (MatthewDuke@myway.com) .
Yours Faithfully,

Barrister Matthew Duke (SAN).

This character assumes we have been in contact with each other. I don’t know if that will work very well if his name is not recognized.

What makes this message a joke is that he’s saying I will get 1 million US Dollars from him, just because I allegedly helped him in the past.
