The African crooks certainly do have fantasy. Kofi Annan sends me a message from the Nigerian Union Bank using a Yahoo email account.

They also claim that unionbanknigplc95@ymail.com is the banks official e-mail address.

As you can see, once again they use the United Nations and the former Secretary Kofi Annan, to try and make a story sound plausible.

They never do. You just have to look closer at what they write and use your common sense.

I like the slogan at the end:

Making the world a better place

Felix sent an empty e-mail, but added the massage as a text file. A bit unusual and there is no real reason why he should do this, so I just estimate he has no real pc experience.

Yes, this is a strange sort of logic what this fellow calling himself “Datuk Tanko Ibrahim” is quoting here. The reason I should do this deal with him is because the so called “deceased” is a “nationality of German”.

This was sent to an e-mail address belonging to a German company, so his logic says that all Germans are brothers.

Funny that “all Africans are brothers” doesn’t work, does it?

Check up on Ibrahim Tanko here. This gives reason to believe the name is being used as a front on this e-mail.

I want you to consider this proposal.If you grant your consent that I present you to the bank as the next-of-kin and beneficiary of my deceased client (since you have the same last name and he from GERMANY like you),so that the proceeds of this account can be transferred to you, then we can share the entire proceeds on a mutually agreed-upon percentage.

This entire process will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.However,if this business proposition of fends your moral values,do accept my apology.Please contact me at once to indicate your interest.PLEASE YOU SHOULD NOT ALLOW BANK TO GO AWAY WITH THIS FUND BELONGING TO YOUR GERMAN BROTHER.
