I often wonder at these plane crash stories. If you have been here often you know that the Andreas Schranner story has been regularly posted here. It goes something like this “a multimillionaire died in a plane crash and left a pile of money in an African bank”. The writer goes on to say “we now need some one to pose as the next of kin to claim this lost money”. The reason for this being there are no living inheritors and we would like the money for ourselves. huh!
So where does this go from here?
Anyone who falls for this story contacts the crooks and immediately gets put through the mill. Form one e-mail to another he gets more and more involved, sending documents and setting himself up as the legal next of kin. Or so he thinks …
In reality, he is just corresponding with the crooks in the guise of lawyers, bankers and notaries.
Once he has gotten in this deep, they push him to pay a fee of say, 800 Dollars or better Euros. It could be for taxes, lawyers or bank costs, whatever. Of course, it is an imaginary fee and it doesn’t really matter for what the crooks claim the payment to be for.
They put the pressure on the “victim” to pay, saying the deal cannot go through without it. Naturally the crooks can’t don’t have the money to pay the fee. They are only poor Africans.
Needless to say the money should be sent through Western Union and once this is paid, they push the poor victim for more.
They push him for what they can get. Which means that victims which are gullible enough, pay anything up to 20,000 Dollars and more.
This often means financial ruin for the victims. For the African crooks, it’s a way of life.

Dear Friend,
My name is Mr. Evans Efedua, I am the Manager, Credit and Foreign bills of Regent Bank Plc. I am contacting you of a business transfer, of a huge sum of US$15.5M (Fifteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) from a deceased account. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that everything has been taken care off, and all will be well at the end of the day. I decided to contact you to the urgency of this transaction.
PROPOSITION:
I am the account officer of a foreigner named Late Mr. Morris Thompson who died in an air crash along with his wife and only daughter on the January 31 in an Alaska airline Flight 261 with other passengers on board. You can confirm this from the website below which was published by www.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska airlines.list
Since his death, none of his next-of-kin are alive to make claims for this money as his heir, because they all died in the same accident himself and his wife (May their soul rest in peace). We cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. Upon this discovery. I now seek your permission to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully worked out by me for the funds to be released in your favor as the beneficiary’s next of kin. Because after four years the money will be called back to the bank treasury as unclaimed bills and the money shared amongst the directors of the bank. So it is on this note I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the next of kin/beneficiary to this funds rather than allow the bank directors to share this money among themselves at the end of the year. It may interest you to know that we have secured from the probate an order of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries. Please acknowledge receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business endeavor by furnishing me with the following information if you are interested. All I need from you is as follows:
1. Your confirmation of your ability to handle this Business for me.
2. Your word that you will keep this business as Confidential as possible at all times until we conclude this business.
3. Your telephone and Fax numbers for communication.
4. Age and Occupation.
I shall be compensating you with 30% (thirty percent) on final conclusion of this project for your assistance, while we will retain 65% (sixty-five percent) and 5% (five percent) goes for expenses because I intend to retire after the conclusion of this business. If this business is acceptable by you. Do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you.
Your faithfully,
Mr. Evans Efedua
Manager Credit and Foreign Bills
Regent Bank Plc
