That sounds extremely logical. Does that mean you can confirm the birth of the deceased or the beginning of his death?

No matter, most people won’t understand what he means.

On a funnier note: does anybody know what he means by “Have A Green Day”?

Yes, it’s another e-mail from Ouagadougou touting an imaginary account, using George’s name to promote it. The reason is simple, George Brumley is easy to research on the internet. His background makes the story halfway believable.

Yes, this is a further adaption of the charity e-mail.

It’s interesting to note that the crooks mention an air crash, which they found reported on CNN. As a starter, they inform you of the delivery charge (£ 155.34 British Pounds), which gets you to accept fees from the beginning.

I am sure this mail would be coming to you as a surprise since we have never met before and you would also be asking why I have decided to chose you amongs the numerous internet users in the world, precisely I cannot say why I have chosen you but do not be worried for I come in peace and something very positive is about to happen to your life right now and to the lives of others through you if only you can carefully read and digest the message below. The internet has made the world a global village where you can reach anybody you have not met before.

Before I move further, permit me to give you a little of my biography,I am Mother Emily Olivier, 87 Years old woman and the wife of Late Sir Jackman Olivier who died in a Plane crash on Monday the 7th of September 1998 GMT 14:22 UK while they were flying from New York to Geneva.Please see site below for more information. http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9809/swissair.victims.list/index.html

After the death of my husband I became the Head of his investment and now that I am old and weak I have decided to spend the rest of my life with my family and loved ones whom I never had time for during the course of my business life, but before the death of my husband we had a plan to use the last days of our lives to donate half of what we have worked for to the less privilege and charity homes and the other half for ourselves, family members and close friends, and it is so unfortunate that my husband is not alive today to do this with me and I am very weak and old now, hence I have decided to do this philanthropic work on behalf of my late husband and I.

Presently, I have willed out almost half of our assets to several charity homes and to some of the less privilege in different countries. Despite the agreement between my late husband and I to give aid to the deprived, we also agreed to render support to an individual we have not meet before in life due to the fact when we were still young in life we receive an anonymous help from an individual we did not know and which we have not being able to know till date, the impact we got from such gesture made us to do same.

I am sorry to inform you that you will never have the chance to know me because I have just concluded the assignment which my husband and I have agreed upon before his sudden death and you happened to be the beneficiary of our last WILL, irrespective of your previous financial status, hence I need you to do me a favor by accepting our offer that will cost you nothing. I have presently deposited a Cheque in the sum of £ 5,800,000.00 British Pound with FedEx express to deliver to you, what you have to do now is to contact the FedEx COURIER SERVICE as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you because of the expiring date.

For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance premium and Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque showing that it is not a Drug Money or meant to sponsor Terrorist attack in your Country.

You have to contact the FedEx COURIER SERVICE now for the delivery of your cheque with this information bellow;
Contact Person: Mr. Mark Robbins
Email Address:fedexunitedkingdom@live.com

Again, you are not to pay for the delivering Charge, the Insurance premium and the Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque because I have already paid for them, the only money you are expected to pay is £155.34 British Pounds for the security keeping of the cheque so far.

I would have paid the fee but the company insisted that I should not because they don’t know when you will be contacting them and to avoid demurrage or further cost.

You are to reconfirm the below information to them 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.

Postal address;
Full Names:
Direct telephone number;

Below is the security keeping code: (SCT/0433/F) of you draft, you are to also present it to them for verification before delivery.

Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to ask them to provide you with the method they wish to use in receiving their security keeping fee of £ 155.34 British Pounds for their immediate action.

Note: Please I do not want you to thank me or my husband all I need you to do is to invest wisely with it and do the same good to someone?s life someday as this is the only way this world would be a better community if we render selfless services to one another.

Be also notified that I will no longer be reading my emails or surfing the internet as I have retired completely from the outside world to my ranch, at this moment I have nothing to do with cars, emails and other luxuries, all further correspondence should be forwarded to the courier company for the delivery of your cheque to you..

Yours Faithfully,
Mrs. Emily Olivier Jackman

If you take a look at Wikipedia you will find an entry about Mr. Brumley. He was quoted to be a philanthropist and he died with several family members in a plane crash in 2003.

Now obviously this background is ideal for 419 scam crooks to misuse this information to put a bogus story about “lost” money in deepest Africa. Seeing that e-mails quoting money in Ouagadougou come in almost every day here, it does seem a favourite location for stories like this.

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,

Hello

My name is Myles Gallagher,i am pleased to get across to you for a very confidential and profitable business proposal. I got your contact while searching for a reliable person who will assist me to execute this once in a life time business opportunity in my department.That’s why I deemed it fit to contact you and ask for your assistance in this profitable matter, requiring trust and confidentiality.

I am a senior partner in the Technical Advisory Board of Allied Irish Bank Group (Senior Security Specialist). We are conducting a standard process investigation on behalf of “AIB Group”, the International Banking Conglomerate.

I render internal and external auditing services for Allied Irish Bank. On my routine audit check few months back, I discovered an investment accounts that had been dormant for at least 5 years.

Now banking regulation/legislation here demand that I do notify the fiscal authorities after a statutory time span of 8 years when dormant accounts of this type are called in by the Jersey monetary regulatory bodies.

The above set of facts underscores my reason for writing and proposing to you. My investigation of the said account reveals that the investor died in testate and nominated no successor in title over the investments made with the, bank who unfortunately died with his wife, only daughter and her husband in a plane crash of Flight AF4590 from Paris to New York U.S.A on Tuesday 25 July, 2000. I can confirm with certainty that no next of kin to his estate has been found or has come forward all these years. You can check the link below for more details about the disaster;

I am of the settled conviction that using my insider leverage, I, working with you can secure the funds in the account for us instead of allowing it pass as unclaimed funds into the coffers of the Government of Channel Islands. This exactly is why I crave your participation and co-operation.

I have in my custody all relevant documents (legal and Banking) that will facilitate your claims as the beneficiary of the funds. If this offer is okay by you, we can put minds together and workout the modalities and our mutual benefits. I shall however leave out the finer details of this transaction till I receive an affirmation of your desire to participate. Be assured that I am in control of the situation and as such, there would be no risk whatsoever if you elect to come on board. Needless to say, UTMOST CONFIDENTIALITY is of vital importance if we are to successfully reap the immense benefits of this transaction.

Please send your response and contact details E.g. Full names, Direct telephone, Fax numbers, Email and if available scanned copy of your international passport or drivers license so I can be sure of your identity before we commence business send to my private and more confidential email below, which I have created for this purpose only.

Regards,

Mr Myles Gallagher
