Friend in the Lord,

Please use this money for the churches and less privileged.

Greetings to you and your family in the name of God. In my search for a reliable and God fearing person and having gotten your contact through prayers and painstaking efforts I have decided to seek your help in carrying out my last wishes. My name is Mrs.Marvis Smith. I’m a 65 years old woman and from Congo. I was a merchant and owned two businesses in Dubai. I was also married with two children.

My husband and two children died in a car accident six years ago. Before this happened, my business and concern for making money was all I live for. I never really cared about other values in life. But since the loss of my family, I have found a new desire to assist helpless families. I have been helping orphans in orphanage/motherless homes. I have also donated some money for humanitarian needs in Sudan, South Africa, Cameroon, Brazil, Spain, Austria, Germany and some Asian countries. Only recently I saw on television the colossal loss of properties and livelihood people in Canberra, Australia through fire.

I was moving with great pity and compassion that I decided to make this contribution on assisting people over there, I kept $US15,000,000.00 Million in a long-term deposit account in a Finance company. Presently, I’m in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for oesophagi cancer. I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have only few months to live. It is my last wish to see this money distributed to victims of the fire outbreak in Australia and other charity organization. Because relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live with the agony entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them.

Please, I beg you in the name of God to help me collect the deposit and distributes it accordingly. Use your judgment to distribute the money and keep 20% of it to yourself. Feel free to reimburse yourself when you have the money for any cost you incur during the process of collecting and distributing the money. If you are willing to help, please reply as soon as possible. May the good lord bless you and your family.Please the only thing you need to do is to pay for some docunents on my behalf.Please i want you to know that you are the only person that can take money from this fund.The bank can not dedect money from the fund.

Please, send reply and all correspondences to my

Be assured this is not from the Robert Kaufman company.

The crooks have have been very diligent with this one. The Robert Kaufmann company does exist and you will see that the crooks have used an official e-mail address in the sender ID.

Contrary to what these people say about the Robert Kaufman being a Japanese company, this is not true as the real Robert Kaufman is a US company.

It is a very risky job, if you decide to do it. You will be charged with money laundering as soon as the banks see what you are up to. They have to report all suspicious transactions to the FBI or authorities in other countries.

DETAILS

—————–
Robert Kaufman Fabrics needs someone to work for the company as a Representative/Manager in other countries. This is in view of our not having an office presently in the Europe and America.

Order processing, production monitoring and process flow are seamlessly integrated through a company-wide computer network .
* The average monthly income is  about 4000.00 Euro.
* No form of investments from you.
* This job takes only 1-2 hours per day This we need to get payments for our products as soon as it possible because customers can just “forget” to pay. Unfortunately we are unable to open bank accounts in  the United US without first registering the company name.

Presently with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put the on hold. For fear of loosing the customers outrightly. Secondly we cannot cash these payments from the US soon enough as international Cheques take about 14 working days for cash to be made available. We lose about 75,000 Euro of net income each month because we have money transfer delays.
YOUR TASK is to coordinate payments from customers and help us with the payment process. You are not invloved in any sales. Our SALES manager sells products. Once he makes a sale we deliver the product to a customer (usually through USPS OR FEDEX).The customer receives and checks the products. After this has been done the customer has to pay for the products. About 90 percent of our customers prefer to pay through Certified Cheques and Money orders based on the amount involved. We have decided to open this new job position for solving this problem and to create job for those seeking and it’s convinient.

JOB DESCRIPTION
——————————————————
1. Recieve payment from Customers
2. Cash Payments at your Bank
3. Deduct 10% which will be your percentage/pay on Payment process

For example 18 transactions on 3500.00 Euro gives you 4410.00 Euro…..to signify your interest in this job,send us the following details; for more transactions made the higher your percentage……

Someone is trying to be original here. Up until now I have now seen any of the crooks trying to make their lottery prize more attractive by adding bonuses.

To be honest I wouldn’t mind winning a Prius myself, but you can be sure there is no cash prize to had with this. So I won’t be getting the car either.
