Hilarious!!!!!! Sorry for the Indignation

FROM THE DESK OF MR ABDUL KARIM BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A.)

OUAGADOUGOU BURKINA-FASO,

WEST AFRICA.

Dear Friend,

 

(PRIVATE/CONFIDENTIA L).

 

 

Iam Mr Abdul Karim.the Manager in charge of Auditing section Bank of Africa(B.O.A.)Ouagad ougou Burkina-Faso in West Africa. Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you as a surprise. AS IT MAY INTEREST YOU TO KNOW, I GOT YOUR IMPRESSIVE INFORMATION THROUGH THE INTERNET SEARCH HERE (very impressive search engine) IN OUAGADOUGOU BURKINA-FASO. I FASTED AND PRAYED FOR THREE DAYS BEFORE I CONTACT YOU TO BE MY PARTNER.

 

I have decided to contact you on a project that will be very beneficial to both of us. During our auditing in this Bank,I came across some amount of money belonging to a deceased foreigner Mr.Andras Schranner died with his wife and their only daughter on July 31,2000 in a plane crash.The fund has been dormant in his account with this Bank without any claim of the fund in our custody from his relation before my discovery to this development. .

 

 

The said amount is U.S $15.5.00(FIFTEEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS). I want you to know that I never master minded the death of the deceased fellow. Their death was occured Naturally. - this one is my favourite line

 

FOR YOUR INFORMATION BEEN YOU NOT A GERMANY WILL NOT POSE ANY PROBLEM FOR THE SUCESSFUL TRANSFER ON THIS FUND INTO YOUR ACCOUNT. All the whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as the Bonafide next of kin to the deceased has been put in place and directives will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist me and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity.

 

 

In this country as a civil servant(A Banker),we are not allowed to operate a foreign account. This is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin to the Bank and also present a foreign account where he will need the money to be re-transferred into on his request. Our Banking law stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed the money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin. I dont want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. Be assured this transaction is 100% risk free.

 

On conclusion of this Project, you will be entitled to 40% of the total sum as gratification, while 60% will be for me. Please you have been adviced to keep "top secret" as I am still in service and intend to retire from service after I conclude this deal with you. I will fly down to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further investment will be discussed. On your acceptance to be my partner, please email for a brief discussion before we proceed. Please keep this proposal secret, even if you dont want to assist me. (sorry my indignation was too strong to forgive) I look forward to receive your urgent reply.

Yours faithfully,

Abdul Karim

It is hard to believe that someone could be so naive as to fall for most Nigerian scams. ...

[chubacka]

Please keep this proposal secret, even if you dont want to assist me. (sorry my indignation was too strong to forgive).

It may sound dumb, but these guys send millions of emails like this, and sometimes they find dumb pple and it works.

 

 

You can't image how many pple, even some smart pple, have been lured with kinds of emails and have been robbed.

^ very true it may sound dumb to some people but they take advantage of the economies of scale.

 

imagine the following scenario:

 

A scammer sends out 50,000 letters.

 

25000 of which predict the market will go up the following week and the other 25000 predict that the market will go down.

 

The following week he takes the 25,000 that came out with a correct prediction and he divides them again .. he sends out 12500 letters saying this week the market will go up and the other 12500 the opposite.

 

he continues this for 1 month .. now he has a group of 3125 people that have received the correct predictions for 4 weeks in a row.

 

The next month he sends out a letter to all 3125 people asking for $100 to continue to receive market predictions which will help them make their investment ... based on his prevous track record all if not most of them decide to pay and the scammer pockets 312,500 not bad for 1 months work.

 

these guys work with population sizes in the 100,000s .. of which there are bound to be quite a few greedy, gullible people .. so it is sound business
