The worst part about that is you know someone is going to fall for it. Of course, anyone stupid enough to fall for it deserves to have their money taken away.
 It's certainly a way to make them wisen up.

Oh, no - now Jeff Lee is trying to take my money! When will it end!
From: Mr. Tony Egobia Federal Ministry of Finance 5th Floor, Annex 3, New Federal Secretariat Complex, Shehu Shagari Way, Central Area Abuja Nigeria. Dear Beneficiary, My name is Mr. Tony Egobia I'm the personal secretary to the Minister of Finance. I'm contacting you to confirm from you if actually YOU know one JEFF LEE who claims to be your business associate/partner from AMERICA. Following the protest of the International Community, The World Bank, IMF and the instruction from THE PRESIDENT UMARU YAR'ADUA that all outstanding foreign DEBTS especially CONTRACT/INHERITANCE PAYMENT should be released to the BENEFICIARIES. The said JEFF LEE is claiming to us that you were dead and have instructed him to make a change of ownership to your funds before your death, thereby providing this account information (BANK NAME: CITI BANK, NEW YORK. BANK ADDRESS: NEW YORK, USA. ACCOUNT NUMBER: 6503809428.ROUTING NUMBER: 122006743 A/C NAME: JEFF LEE) as the original account information where the said approved $35Million Dollars will be remitted into. This development is coming now that the Ministry of Finance wants to offset all outstanding payments owed to all foreign beneficiaries around the world by this Country in which your payment file was affected. As you may know, the total amount approved in your favor is the total sum of $30Million Dollars. And by virtue of claim we need to confirm from you if it's really true that JEFF LEE is your business Associate/partner in AMERICA and if we did not hear from you soonest it automatically means that you are actually dead and the information passed to us by JEFF LEE is correct. You are to contact me through my email address as soon as you receive this message so as to know the true position of things with you so That we won't make any mistake in remitting your outstanding payment to a wrong Person/account. Your swift response will help this ministry a lot. Do email me with your information below: Your Name: Address: Sex: Age: Occupation: Your Next of Kin Name and your date of Birth: Your Telephone/Fax number: Driver's License/int'l Passport Best Regards. Mr. Tony Egobia. Secretary To Minister Federal Ministry of Finance (FMF).

Yeah , it's another scam ( dagnabbit ) , if it was for real he wouldn't have said "My name is Mr. Tony Egobia I'm the personal secretary to the Minister of Finance." he would have said "My name is Mr. Tony Egobia I'm the personal secretary to the Minister of Finance For Life"(Insert Name Here).

Our Sphinx is right - unfortunately someone (many someones) will fall for it. And not just the dumb 'gee I can get something for nothing' people that get scammed and then expect sympathy (they get none from me), but many elderly and perhaps mentally sagging people will. Boo and hiss to the buggers that send these things!

It's amazing how creative people can get when it comes to ripping people off...you'd think they could put that creativity to an honest use.

More money, more money, more money -
From: Lady Rebecca Thatcher. No:36 Old Shrewberry Street, London England. Beloved,i am Lady Rebecca Thatcher, suffering from cancerous ailment.I used to be married to Sir Jeremy Thatcher an Englishman who is dead and resting peacefully. My husband was into private practice all his life before he passed. Our life together as man and wife lasted for three decades without offsprings. My husband died after a protracted illness in an accident he got from Africa while on humanitarian duties. My husband,while he was alive made a vow to uplift the down-trodden and the less-privileged individuals as he had passion for persons who can not help themselves due to physical disability or financial predicament.I can adduce this to the fact that he needed a Child from the marriage, which never came. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of Twenty Million Pounds (20,000,000.00 Million Great Britain Pounds Sterling)which were derived from his vast estates and investment in capital market with his bank here in UK. Presently, this money is still with the Bank. Recently, my Doctor told me that I have limited days to live due to the cancerous problems I am suffering from. Though what bothers me most is the stroke that I have in addition to the cancer. With this hard reality that has befallen me, I have decided to donate this fund to you and want you to use this gift which comes from my husbands effort to fund the upkeep of widows, widowers, orphans, destitute, the down- trodden, physically challenged children, barren-women and persons who prove to be genuinely handicapped financially. I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husbands relatives are bourgeois and very wealthy persons and I do not want my husbands hard earned money to be misused or invested into ill perceived ventures. I do not want this money to be misused hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I do not need any telephone communication in this regard due to my deteriorating health and because of the presence of my husbands relatives around me. I do not want them to know about this development because i want the money used for the Less Previledged. My happiness is that I lived a life worthy of emulation. Please assure me that you will act just as I have stated herein. Hope to hear from you soon. You can contact me through my personal email address at: thatcherfunds73@xxx.co.uk Thanking you in advance for everything, Sincerely yours, Lady Rebecca Thatcher. Note: I've changed the Ladies email address so none of you could get to her before me. I would certainly honor her wishes, especially since I'm one of those Less Previledged of whom she speaks. -------------------- I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant! |
