Just to remind you, Andreas Schranner was one of the people who died
in the Concorde crash in Paris. He was a wealthy man, but he has
nothing to do with this scam e-mail.

Yes, it’s another e-mail from Ouagadougou touting an imaginary account, using George’s name to promote it. The reason is simple, George Brumley is easy to research on the internet. His background makes the story halfway believable.

The only interesting point about this e-mail is the e-mail address didia44@zudah.org.
There is a registered domain Zudah.org. It belongs to a woman with an address in California. The question is, how did Didia get a working e-mail address from there?
I am waiting for an answer, so we will have to wait and see if there really is an e-mail account there or not.

I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank Draft of $1.8 MILLION United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since for a couple of weeks now.
Then I went to the bank to confirm if the draft has expired or getting near to expire and Dr.Wilson th Director Bank of Africa told me that before the draft will get to your hand that it will expire.
So I told him to cash the $1.8 MILLION USD UNITED STATES DOLLARS to cash payment to avoid losing this funds under expiration as I will be out out of the country for a 3 Months Course and I will not come back till ending of june 2008.
The money was now package in consignment box and was deposited with the FEDEX COURIER COMPANY BENIN , Cotonou, Benin Republic What you have to do now is to contact FEDEX COURIER COMPANY as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your Consignment to you ,For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance premium.
The only money you will send to the FEDEX COURIER COMPANY to deliver your Consignment direct to your postal Address in your country is ($155.00 US) United States Dollars only being Security Keeping Fee of the Courier Company so far.Again, don’t be deceived by anybody to pay any other money except $155.00 US Dollars.
I would have paid that but they said no because they don’t know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage. You have to contact FEDEX COURIER COMPANY now for the delivery of your consignment with this information bellow;
Directors Name:DR. MARK OLISE Companys Name:FEDEX COURIER COMPANY Email:( infofedexcouriercomp@netcourrier.com ) Telephone number;+229 9391 1954
Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your Postal address and Direct telephone number to them again to avoid any mistake on the Delivery and ask them to give you the tracking number to enable you track your package over there and know when it will get to your address.
Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to pay them their Security Keeping fee of $155.00 US Dollars for their immediate action.
Note this. The FEDEX COURIER COMPANY don’t know the contents of the Box. They did not know the contents was money. this is to avoid them delaying with the BOX. Don’t let them know that box contents money ok.
I am waiting for your urgent response. Yours Faithfully, Mr.Edward Chubby,
