FROM: MR. MOHAMMED ALTAF I do seriously need your help because I am disabled from a motor accident and can not travel abroad for business and otherwise on Doctor’s orders. I was an Oil consultant based in the United Kingdom, and because I helped a lot of foreign Crude Oil Companies to get Crude Oil Lifting Rights and lucrative Oil Contracts from ASIA AND AFRICA, I was able to amass a fortune worth about USD20million. On 21st December, 2004, I left the UK finally with my family, and came back to BENIN Rep. But because of the unfavourable political and economic climate in Benin, and for security reasons, I left my money total USD20million in a Security Safe Deposit vault compnay. On 22nd December, I and my whole family was involved in a very bad accident on our way home to our Village at IGOLO in PORT-NOVO, about 300 km from COTONOU, BENIN; I lost my entire family in the accident, and I myself fell into a coma since then… I eventually recovered from coma, and was discharged from the hospital two weeks ago. I have no money with which to sponsor any one in Benin to undertake the claim of the money for me; in any case , my extended family here abandoned me in hospital when they realized that the money which I came back with had been spent on hospital bills; I am currently living on the charity of a church. And now, I need your help to collect this money and invest it in a profitable venture abroad; I cannot bring in this money into Benin for fear of seizure by the Government. If the money is properly and profitably invested abroad, I intend to leave BENIN permanently. Can I count on your help? If you agree to help me, I will send you by Post/courier the ELECTRONIC CARD KEY of my vault so that you can open the vault when the security safe deposit company shall cargo the vault to you ; You will then remove the money total USD20 million and transfer it to your Bank Account. For your help and assistance, you will keep 25% of the money for your self and keep 75% for me in safe custody until I travel to meet you and invest my share… If you agree to help me, please reply giving me the following information: 1. Your Complete name and Street (POSTAL) address 2. Your Phone and fax number, including mobile 3. Your confidential email address 4. Your nearest airport where they will land before bringing the vault to your desination . TO PREVENT THE KEY AGAINST LOSS IN TRANSIT, PLEASE KINDLY STATE YOUR CORRECT NAME AND STREET ADDRESS… THIS IS NOT A JOKE OR A HOAX! YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CONFIRM THAT THIS EMAIL IS A GENUINE 100% LEGITIMATE PROPOSAL, ONCE YOU REPLY AS ABOVE. Once I receive your reply stating your street postal address as above, I will send you the Safe Deposit Vault Key by EXPRESS MAIL, and I will also forward to you more details of this transaction by email. Details will include the address, contact details of the Safe Deposit Company in London where my money is currently stored… Best regards, MR.MOHAMMED ALTAF PS: PLEASE I DO EXPECT YOUR RESPONSE positive to MY CONFIDENTAIL EMAIL ADDRESS; mohammedaltaf@sify.com , EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO HELP ME, PLEASE REPLY ANYWAY AND TELL ME, SO THAT I CAN CONTACT ANOTHER PERSON TO HELP ME.

These people must have a sense of humor. This one even warns you of scams or fraudulent e-mails. Some even say "This is not a scam!"

Richard Umlazi, the so called attorney, is using a mobile phone and he is reachable on weekends! Hardly surprising I would say.

Subject: Kindly Fulfill My Last Wish (08-Nov-2005 2:25)
From: mohahammed240@hotmail.com
To: xxx@xxx.xxx

From: Hassan Mohammed
Email: moshammed24@yahoo.fr

Greetings.

As you read this, I don’t want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe
everyone will die someday. My name is Hassan Mohammed a trader in Dubai, in
the U.A.E. I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer.

It has defiled all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only
about a few months to live, according to medical experts. I have not
particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone (not
even myself), but my trade. Though I am very well to do, I was never open
handed, I was always hostile to people like they never had hopes of becoming
as successful as myself. But now I regret all this as I now know that there
is more to life than just wanting to be prosperous.

I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world, I would
live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has
called me, I have willed and given most of my belonging to my immediate and
extended family members, as well as a few close friends. I want God to be
merciful to me and accept my soul. Hence I have decided to give also to
charity, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So
far, I have been able to reach out to a few charity organizations in the
U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I
cannot do this myself anymore.

I once asked members of my family to aid me in giving of alms to those
organizations catering for the less privileged in Bulgaria and Pakistan,
they refused and kept the resources to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contempt with
what I have left for them.

The last of my belonging which no one knows of, is the huge deposit of
eighteen milion US dolls that I have in a safe keeping Company abroad, which
I will want you to secure and dispatch to charity organizations.

Please endeavour to reply me on my direct email address of
moshammed24@yahoo.fr for intimacy, as I’ll be awaiting your quick response.
For your time and devotion, I have set aside a tenth of this for you. God be
with you.

Hassan Mohammed.
