From: MISS KATE BROWN <miss.katebrown@yahoo.co.uk>
Date: Sunday, May 30, 2010, 7:11:01 PM
Subject: FROM MISS KATE BROWN LONDON

Hello Sir,

My name is Miss Kate Brown , the Assistance sales manager of Blue Nile Inc. London. My company needs a raw material which we use for the manufacturing of medicated glasses, Diamond and golden Jewelries by name DIAMOND MIXTURE.

DIAMOND MIXTURE is our major raw material, we buy a gram of Diamond Mixture $780 from dealers in London, recently I discovered a supplier in Middle East that offered me a gram $360 and quality is the same, I offered my company $500 per gram and they are very happy to buy 5kg.

My personal profit in 5kg is $700.000.00 (Seven hundred thousand US Dollars).I am contacting you because my manager will be traveling to UAE for the purchase in few days time.

1, You will act as the middle marketer between the main UAE Dealers of this product and our company here in London in the sense that you will buy this product from the main dealers at the rate of US$360/per gram and sell to our company at the rate of US$500/per grams after I might have introduced you to our company as the main dealer, and also given you the main dealer's contact in Middle East for you to contact them to know the availability of the product in their stock.

You will met our purchasing manager on arrival to Middle East, show him your office to convince him you are the dealer, take him back to his hotel, go and purchase from the main dealer, bring the product to his hotel, collect cash from him, finish. You extract our profit and take your money back to where you bring it. It’s a day transaction.

My Company is presently running out of stock of this product. If you are interested and promise your honesty in this business please do get in touch with me so that we can reach into an agreement on how to share this $700.000.00 (Seven hundred thousand US Dollars) profit.

I only want you to assure me that you will be honest with me, and also keep this business secret between both of us, so that our company will not realize that I connived with you to inflate the price of the product for my own interest because if they do, as I say, I will loss my job and also my career will be jeopardized. I will tell you more things about this business if I find you are interested to do the business and I will also guide you to the success of it.

Regards,
Miss.Kate Brown

Dear Friend,

This letter must come to you as a surprise, but I believe it is only a day that people meet and become great friends and business partners. I am pleased to get across to you for a very urgent and profitable business proposal; I got your e-mail address through an internet yellow page web directory and decided to contact you and ask for your assistance in this urgent matter, requiring trust and confidentiality,I am Mr.Mohamad Al Hadi, the Branch manager, National Bank of Abu Dhabi,Dubai Convention Centre Branch U.A.E (UNITED ARAB EMIRATES),married with four children. I am writing this letter to ask for your support and co-operation to carry out this business opportunity in my department,

I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the Petroleum Corporation that Mr. David Ameeraly, died in the plane crash On October 31, 1999, (an Egyptian Boeing 767 Flight 990) with other passengers on board as you can confirm it yourself via the website below

This revelation is only known to me because I was his personal account officer before I was posted to become the branch manager , now I seek your collaboration to act as next of kin to late Mr.David Ameeraly to claim the funds and move them into useful investments, we shall split the cash between our self upon the confirmation of the money into your account, I am ready to offer you 35% of the total fund and 60% for me while 5% will be set aside for any expenses might occur during the transaction,

Subject: LET US DO THIS FOR HUMANITY

Greetings,
Compliments of the day to you and your family.
I am very sorry to embarrass you with this email as I did not mean to intrude in your privacy if not for the peculiar situation I have found myself. I have contacted you because I believe you have what it takes to carry out the request I seek of you. I am currently suffering from a terminal disease called CANCER and my doctors have informed me that I have a few months to live and I want to try and do something special with my life now that the end is near.
Before I was diagnosed with the disease I was a very successful businessman who made a lot of money but also lived a very rough life filled with too much lust for women and more money. In the course of my illness my family members have bled me dry of nearly all my possessions and abandoned me to my fate. I presently have no friend or family as I am all alone in this hospital.
Luckily I have some money totaling five and half million us dollars that I had stashed away in a finance facility somewhere in Europe and I would be willing to donate all of it to charity. All I want is for a foundation to be set up in my name so I would always be remembered for my good deeds in life after I pass on. If you are willing to assist you would get a handsome percentage of the money and also a place in heaven as God would abundantly reward you. Please get back to me ASAP so I can give you more details.

Thanks and God bless you.

From: Mrs Susan Douglas <susan.douglas@cantv.net>
Date: Saturday, May 29, 2010, 9:43:43 AM
Subject: Please Reply again From Susan

Dear beloved friend,

I know that this letter may be a very big surprise to you, I came across your profile from my personal search and I believe that you will be honest to fulfill my final wish before I will die.

I am Mrs. Susan Douglas from London, I am 58 years old, I am deaf and suffering from a long time cancer of brain. From all indication my condition is really deteriorating, and my doctors have courageously advised me that I may not live beyond the next two months; this is because the cancer has reached a critical stage. I was brought up in a motherless baby's home, and was married to my late husband for twenty years without a child, but quite unfortunately, he died in a fatal motor accident.

Since his death I decided not to re-marry, I sold all my inherited belongings and the fund I made when I was heavily importing cocoa to Europe and deposited all the sum of $3.6million dollars with a BANK. Presently, this money is still in their custody, and the management just wrote me as the Legitimate beneficiary to come forward to receive the money after keeping it for so long or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf since I can not come over as a result of my illness, or they get it confiscated. Presently, I'm with my laptop in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment. I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have only a few months to live.

It is my last wish to see that this money is invested in any organization of your choice and distributed each year among the charity organization, the poor and the motherless baby's home. I want a good humanitarian, to also use this money to fund orphanages and widows around. I must let you know that this was a very hard decision, but I had to take a bold step towards this issue because I have no further option. I hope you will help see my last wishes come through.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the BANK. I will also issue you a letter of authority, which will prove that you are the new beneficiary of my funds. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hope to hear from you soonest.

Awaiting your reply

Your beloved,
Mrs. Susan Douglas.

Subject: Reply Please

Hello,

I have emailed you earlier without a response. In my first email I mentioned about my late client whose relatives I cannot get in touch with. I am compelled to do this because I would not want the bank to push my clients funds into the bank treasury as unclaimed inheritance.

This mail is written and intended to solicit your assistance to be presented as the HEIR to my Late Client since you are a foreigner and only a foreigner can lay claims on this inheritance. The Governing Body of the Bank has contacted me on this matter and I am yet to provide the HEIR to lay claims to the Fund. Under a clear and legitimate agreement with you, I shall seek your consent to be presented as the HEIR so that my late Client's fund will not be Confiscated by the Bank and pushed into the bank treasury as unclaimed bills.

For the sake of Transparency on this matter,you are free to make immediate contact for further clarification and explanation on this matter. I will need you also to reconfirm your full name and contact telephone number to ascertain the fact that I am dealing with the right person.
Thank you very much for your anticipated acceptance while we expect your prompt response to this matter as the urgency
demands.
Yours faithfully,

Subject: CAN YOU STAND AS A RELATIVE OF LATE MR. ZIMMERMAN?

Dear

You might be apprehensive reading my mail as I know this is certainly an unconventional approach to start up relationship, however due to the limited time at my disposal,Please permit me to make this little introduction. I am a lawyer by profession. I am writing to seek your consent to let me present you as a relative to my late client Mr. Zimmerman who died with his wife and only daughter in the Bellview plane crash of 2005. View the web pages below for your confirmation.

http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/africa/10/23/nigeria.plane/
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4368516.stm

My client made a three years fixed deposit in a local bank here before his death. Upon the maturity of the fixed deposit, the bank contacted me to provide any close relative of client to receive his money since his wife who happened to be his next of kin also died along with him in the air-crash. I made attempts to locate any of my client’s close relatives without success. Now the bank has issued me a 21 days ultimatum to present any close relative of my late client to receive his money. The bank has threatened to declare my client's fund as their profit if I fail to present any of his relative after 21days.

Based on this ultimatum, I seek to present you to the bank as a relative of my deceased client, so that the proceeds of his fixed deposit valued at $7,500,000.00 (Seven Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only) can be paid to you so that we can share it between us in the ratio of 60% to me and 40% to you.

I have vital legal documents that would aid us in backing our claims. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee you that this transaction will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you and I from any breach of law.

I will appreciate your urgent response indicating your interest as well as leaving me with your details like your full names, address and direct telephone numbers so as to open up a conversation with you. I will give you more details once am assured of your sincerity and full cooperation. I await your quick response in my email: barristermarcelchambers@gmail.com.

Subject: My Will (Contact DHL EXPRESS UK for Delivery)

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 amongst 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 want you to me do one last work i have now . As the island of Haiti experience a major earthquake struck, I will like to use this last chance to show as a philanthropist .

Before I move further, permit me to give you a little of my biography, I am Lady Rita Ratnavale, 78 Years old woman and the wife of Sir Ratnavale, Victor, dual citizen of Switzerland and Britain who died in a Plane crash on Monday the 7th of September 1998 GMT 14:22 UK alongside with my daughter 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 in my Ranch before i finally leave the world, 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 privileged 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.

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 received an anonymous help from an individual we did not know and which we were never able to identify,the impact we got from such a 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. hence I need you to do me a favor by accepting our offer and using it to help the poor in Haiti.

I deposited some fund in the sum of Ј2.400,000.00 (Two Million Four Hundred Thousand British Pounds) with DHL UK one week ago to deliver to you, but i was very ill so i could not send you an email until today. what you have to do now is to contact the DHL GLOBAL EXPRESS UK as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you.

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 DHL GLOBAL EXPRESS UK now for the delivery of your cheque with this information bellow;

Contact Person: Mr. George Greg
Email Address: mrgeorgegreg@dhlglobalservice.co.uk
Phone: +447024057874

Again, you are not to pay for the delivery Charge, the Insurance premium and the Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque because I have already paid for them.

Note: You are expected to pay is Ј180 British Pounds for the security keeping of the package because with my order your package has been taken to a SECURITY
COMPANY FROM DHL.

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 demur rage or further cost.You are to reconfirm the below information to them to avoid any mistake on the Delivery.

Postal address;
Full Names:
Direct telephone number;

Below is the security keeping code: (Dhl/04773/F) of you draft, you are to also present it to them for verification before delivery.

Please, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay.

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 private ranch where i have cleared all charges .

I leave you in peace to rest in the lord .

Yours Faithfully,
Lady Rita Ratnavale

Greetings dearest one!

How are you together with your family? It's good to write today however, is neither required nor in any way force me to go against their will. My name is Anita Coulibaly. I am 22 years old, the only daughter and son of Chief (Late) Mr. Oliver.Coulibaly

My father was a gold miner of great reputation in Ivory Coast during his days. Sad to say, he died mysteriously during one of his business trips though, his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by my uncle who traveled with him at that time. But God knows the truth!

My mother died when i was still a baby and since then, my father took me so special. Before his death, he called the secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and said he has the sum of $ 9,500,000 .00 left in a leading Bank here in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. He also said the money deposited in my name as next of kin and finally issued a written instruction to his lawyer who says he is in possession of all necessary and legal documents concerning this fund and the bank. I'm only 19 and a college student and really do not know what to do.

Now i want an account overseas where i can transfer this money, this is because i suffered a lot of setbacks as a result of the continuing political crisis here in Ivory coast, which is bringing smokes now and ready to bring another fresh civil war here, as i'm seen things as of saturday 13th, (which i pasted the link news from bbc below) and family problems that made me run away from home and hide in a local hotel for the safety of my life by the hand of my wicked Uncle who killed my father and some other members of the family that are after my life. Here is the news link, copy it and paste on address bar: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8513806.stm

The death of my father actually brought sorrows and setback again to my life. Dearest, I am in a sincere desire of your urgent assistance in this regard. Please your suggestions and ideas are very necessary. This is all i want from you, mostly:

1. You help me negotiate for lucrative and legal investment where the money is spent wisely, as you know that i am only a child and have no investment knowledge.

2. You help me to secure a permanent residence permit in your country to come over and continue my education while you take care of the investment that will be created for you. The most important of all is for you to be a good partner, when the money reaches your country.

I am willing to give 20% of the total money after the money has been transferred successfully to your bank account in your country for their assistance and to 20% in the case of expenditures made during the transfer process.

Please, Consider this and return to me as soon as possible. So that we will know what to do in transferring this money out before this crisis will be worst as i'm looking at it now.

Thanks for being there for me.

Yours Sincerely,
Anita Coulibaly.

Please forgive me and this unusual manner of contacting you but i just can help it, so i felt i have to reach you with this letter to support me in order to achieve my dream for the less privilege ones in our society and the world at large.
My name is Mr. Andre Lucas, A business merchant in Durban South Africa, but am presently under-going treatment here in Italy . I have been diagnosed with Oesophageal cancer. It has defied 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 only my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. Its now i know that no matter how much money you have it cannot safe life because i have spent millions of dollars on my illness but to no avail.

But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. 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 property and assets 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, so I have decided to give alms to charity organizations for the less privilege in the society, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have Distributed money to some charity organizations in the Somalia and Haiti before my sickness got worsen to this present state. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore.

I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Jamaica and India , they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of nine Million dollars($9,000,000.00) that I have with a private Financial company in Europe. I will want you base on trust to help me collect this deposit and dispatch it to any charity organizations of your choice.

N/B: KINDLY NOTE THAT 70% of this funds must go to victims of recent disasters while the balance 30% will be for your effort and time during the actualization of this transaction. Upon receipt of your response, I shall communicate with you, and let you know the details of the transfer. Whatever your actions and your decision, I thank you for taking the time to read this letter.
I am looking forward to your prompt response.

Regards,

Mr. Andre Lucas.
