There really is a David Mark who is the president of the Senate in Nigeria. Search Engine results show David Mark is not unknown to corruption.

You will find more on him in this page of search results “David Mark”+Nigeria.

This message however is not from him.

As usual the Nigerian crooks have looked for a story or background which fits in with the stories they tell. David mark is just a good name to use.

The e-mail address <senate2008ng@yahoo.es> shows this is not an official message. It’s a 419 scam message as usual.

ATTN: BENEFICIARY,

IMMEDIATE RELEASE OF YOUR INHERITANCE FUND VIA ATM SWIFT CARD.

In close consultation with the World Bank, IMF and the European Union (EU), this is to notify you of your enlistment as a beneficiary of a recent Debt Management and Settlement Forum organized on the status of global arrangement to have your beneficiary fund settled once and for all. Of course, In the hope that you must have been aware of the past financial leakages in the European foreign inheritance payment system, and frustrations associated there from in your last attempt to claim the fund, wherein fund beneficiaries (like your self) was subjected to unnecessary bureaucratic bottlenecks in lieu of claiming funds due them. The World Body,
having solicited and received the cooperation of Nigerian Presidency, in harmonizing the sequence of payments, have discovered from records of outstanding foreign inheritance fund beneficiaries due them, that your name and payment has been with held and remain unpaid as a result of such bottleneck. On the prompting of this finding, I wish to officially notify you that all aspects of your payment claim is being harmonized, enabling payment to be released to you as urgently as you act on the instructions of this mail.

Consequently, Afribank Nigeria Plc has been directed by the World Body to off set these outstanding debts, using ATM Swift Card payment arrangement. Already, a total amount of US$500 Million has been provided to the bank for this purpose and it is on first come first serve. With this arrangement, I wish to inform you that Afribank Nigeria Plc has been instructed to issue in your name an ATM Cash Card with the valued amount of US$10.5M. In paying this amount to you, please note that it is without Prejudice to your original inheritance sum. Rather, it is a stop-gap payment arrangement put in place by the World Body to on the one hand ensure that you receive part of your fund, while on the other hand ensure that the process is smooth and without any form of stress whatsoever, whereas a comprehensive arrangement shall be made in future to pay off the remaining fund due you.

However, we are worried with the counter information received from one Mr. Jack Law, purporting to be from your directive, with express instruction to activate the ATM Cash Card for release of fund to his name a bank account in the “Cayman Islands” Obviously, we are hesitant to honor this instruction as it were, and would request that you clarify same upon your contact with Afribank Nigeria Plc . In addition to that, you should provide the bank with the following details to forestall any mistake of issuing the ATM Card with the wrong information already submitted by Mr. Jack Law:

(1) Your full names, address, phone, fax and Cell numbers (up to date) for ease of contact
(2) Beneficiary name for activation of your ATM CARD.

Believing that this arrangement will suit your condition and expectations, we will therefore request for your expedited response to avoid any more delay. Your response should be directed to Afribank Nigeria Plc , Attention: Dr. David William ; Director Atm Payment Dept through his official email address: atmdeptafribank3@yahoo.es ,Tel/fax: 234-1-4720582 ,Your file reference code for your payment is ATM/LAG/NG and should be quoted in your contact mail to the bank otherwise the bank will not recognize/process your ATM Swift Payment.

Yes, the various oil companies and African authorities are among the oldest stories used by the Africans. The original scam letters, which were sent to Europe and the USA up to 40 years ago, used the NNPC (Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation) as the basis for their activities. It is still used for e-mails today, although I haven’t seen one for some time now.

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).

Have you noticed?

A lot of the 419 and Lottery crooks have realized the problem with using Freemail accounts.

A Hotmail, Yahoo or Google account just does not look all that serious or trustworthy when sending out a scam e-mail.

So I have noticed that some of them take the time to look for domains which look better than freemail accounts.

For example, an e-mail from a lawyer (yes, there are lawyers in Nigeria who regularly do the 419 scams) uses an e-mail account from lawyer.com. Or someone claiming to be a “minister of whatever” uses minister.com.

You get the idea?

Now it’s not that they actually send their mails from these domains, that is hardly the case. Instead they use a fictive e-mail address like Imalier123@lawyer.com as in the example below. That is easy to do and they always give you an alternative, sometimes “private freemail account”, where you have to send your reply to.

In this case it is safcm@officeofthepresidency-nig.com

Now that looks impressive doesn’t it?

If only the “dash nig” was not in there, it would be more impressive and, more to the point, it would be more believable, wouldn’t it?

Now in the case of lawyer.com and minister.com, they are just parked domains with a search page, which could be mistaken to be a real website. But they are not. They have nothing to do with the scam at all. They are just convenient.

The “office of the presidency” on the other hand, has been registered with the sole purpose of providing a half believable e-mail address. There is no website to be found, just an index list.

If you research the domain name “officeofthepresidency-nig.com” you will see it has been registered, but not by whom. The only thing you will find is an IP address from a server in Australia.

Australia?

I reckon that is far enough away from Nigeria so as not to be a problem. And that’s one reason why it has been hosted there.

The problem is, most people don’t see the e-mail account. And those who do, see accounts which look right, at least at first glance.

Sometimes you have to look very close to recognize the crooks.

Seriously, they do offer a basis for a fairy tale like this. Charles Taylor was a prominent warlord in war torn Liberia. He most definitely made a lot of illicit money during that time. You can read more about Charles Taylor at Wikipedia.

Dear ,

Greeetings to you!! I sincerely hope all is well.I know you might wonder how i got to know your contact email address. I got it from the Presidential Library here in Nigeria, West-Africa. My name is Mr.Robert Ansah, i was assigned on 3rd of August 2003, by the Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo, to be the personal assistant(PA),to the former Liberan President, Charles Taylor, when he arrived Nigeria on exile. Following the exit of Charles Taylor of Liberia from power under a West Africa brokered peace agreement, led by the Nigerian President, he was granted asylum by the Nigerian Government and was subsequently, given a home in the south-eastern part of Nigeria, Calabar to be precise.

While on my assignment as the P.A to Mr.Charles Taylor, i observed that Mr.Taylor moved in large amount of monies, illegally to Nigeria and used some of his money to buy loyalty, and he also found me as a close confidant and asked me to advise him on the best place,he could possibly secure his money. That was how, i deposited $35Million in a Financial Institution oversea(WILL TELL YOU THE COUNTRY IF WILLING TO HELP ME) and i want to use for investment and spend the rest of my life, there with my family. Since he relocated to Calabar, Southern Nigeria, all has been well until the 28th day of March, 2006, he was arrested and flown to Sierra-Leone by the Nigerian Government, following the request of the present leadership of  the Liberian Government led by Mrs.Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, backed up by the U.N, to appear in a Sierra-Leonean Hign Court, on allegations of war-crimes charges, etc All necessary/vital documents that will enable the release of the funds to you, are in my custody and would be provided to you on receipt of your willingness to assist me in the sucessful execution of this transaction. Though we are not known to each other, i strongly believe that through this transaction, we would be able to forge a mutual relationship between us, now and in the nearest-future.
