With this story, they start off by saying you get the cash card if you pay a “reactivation” fee of 135 US Dollars. Now I’ve seen that somewhere before.

Subject: CONTACT IMMEDIATELY FOR YOUR ATM CARD VALUE $1.500 000 00
To:
My Dear ,
I have contacted my secretary to confirm if you have received the compensation draft cheque of (US$1.500.000) which I issued in your name, but he told me that he could not send it to you because of the courier charges. Now I have called my bank to cancel any payment regards to the draft cheque and then authorized them to transfer the payment into ATM CARD in your name which they did.
As of now be informed that all charges has been paid and the ATM CARD is going to be in your name, but to reactivate the ATM Card you have to forward your current informations as requested below to the bank and the only money you will pay to the bank is US$130.00 for the ATM Card Reactification fee, then they will send you the ATM CARD for your immediate use.
Here are the informations you have to forward to the bank:
1. YOUR FULL NAMES:______
2. Postal ADDRESS:_______
3. PHONE NUMBER:_________
4. CELL NUMBERS:_______
5. EMAIL ADDRESS:________
6. SEX:_____
7. AGE:_____
8. OCCUPATION:________
9. NATIONALITY:________
Looking through the message, it has all of the Hallmarks of typical 419 scam e-mails:
1. It uses only Freemail accounts
2. The sender is a “Reverend”. That’s a title only used for representatives of protestant churches. It’s highly unlikely they would be working for a bank as well.
3. The “Central Bank of Nigeria” is quoted as being the remitter bank.
4. They quote I will be getting an inheritance.
5. And of course, I will be getting millions of US Dollars with no strings attached.
That’s enough to mark it as suspect, I would say.

I registered it with the FedEx Courier company in the name of Computer accessories as its content and i didn’t let them know that it contains funds of US$1.500.000.00 because of fear of betrayal.
I wonder how many Millionaires with accounts in Africa were on the flight that day?
None I would say.

PRIVATE EMAIL: hajj_sankoh1@hotmail.com
Dear Friend,
In a brief introduction, I am Hajj Sankoh, the Director of Operation with AFRICA DEVELOPMENT BANK (ADB) of Benin-Cotonou ,Republic of Benin.I have a very interesting transaction to discuss with you. The business under discussion has to do with one of our customer a national of your country, who is a Consultant/ contractor with Societe Nationale Des Products D’ Agricole (SONAPRA) Company in Benin-Cotonou. I managed to get your contact details through the Internet search myself because time is of importance to it and I am desperately looking for Someone to assist me to pull this money out from the bank before our corrupt government officials will confiscate the money.On Thursday, December 25, 2003, this our customer , his wife and their only daughter were involved in Air-Crash near the Atlantic Ocean in Cotonou suburb. For more clarifications, you can visit the CNN web news for the tragedy.
www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/26/benin.crash
Since then I have made several inquiries to your Embassy, in a bid to locate any relation of this our customer. All attempts to reach the next of kin of our customer has been futile as He had no family here in Benin Republic.Hence my decision to contact you. I want you and I to go into partnership, the nature of your business is completely irrelevant to this transaction as all I need from you is an assurance that my interest will be fully protected once this transaction is concluded.He made a numbered time (fixed) deposited for twelve calendar Months and his account with our Bank accrues to about (Fourteen Million, Three hundred and Fifty- Two Thousand US Dollars) $USD14.352M.
According to the Benin Law, at the expiration of (Five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Benin government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to our customer so that the fruits of this old man’s labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials who will latter use the money to sponsor war in Africa and kill innocent citizens in the search for political power/seat. Please note that There will be no problem at all, my position as the Director of Operation guarantees the successful execution of this transaction within 7 Banking days and the money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 40% for you and 60% for me.This is very simple, I will like you to reply immediately so that I can send you the Text of application which you will fill and apply to the bank as the next of kin to our customer and I will use my go!
od position in the bank as the Director of Operation to make sure that the application is approved, during board meeting for immediate payment. If you are interested, reply immediately via my private email address: hajj_sankoh1@hotmail.com
So that we can proceed at once. Please send to me also your private phone, or mobile numbers for easier correspondence.

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,
If there really is such a name, us humble Europeans would have a hard time trying to guess where it comes from.
The story he’s telling is the one with Global Max Couriers. Remember that one?
I don’t believe he’s in Germany, but it sounds good doesn’t it?
