3/20/2005 5:53:14 PM
Hello all. Sorry I have been unavailable for the last week or so, I have had another spine operation & I have been recovering. Here is a quick scam email for you. I found it whilst trying to empty two weeks worth of email from one account, something approaching nearly 2,000. Got 3 more email accounts to check so might find a few more scams in amongst them, which I will post. Here is a typical email from an African Country. Do not answer these in anyway.... --------------------------------------------- This message is in the Spam Folder because it was identified as spam by AOL's Advanced Spam Filters. Subject: Help Date: 3/20/2005 3:06:30 P.M. Pacific Standard Time From: oseiimar@junoo.org Reply To: mary_manto303@juno.com To: oseiimar@junoo.org Greetings, I got your contact in my searching of a good reputation foreign partner to assist me in my late husband properties. My late husband was former district leaders of the diamond city call KENNEMA and an executive member of the Diamond Mining Association in the Republic of Sierra-Leone. He was massacred by the president TEJAN KABBAH force in their struggle to reinstate him back to power, before his death he disclosed to me that he deposited two trunk boxes contain sum of US$18.2 Million in a Security Company in Accra, Ghana, in a neighboring country in West Africa, after all, I had gave the Security Company a call and was confirmed that the boxes are intact. I decide to solicit for your kind assistance to help me and my two children invest these funds on our behalf the sum of US$18.2 Million (and to deposit 20kg of Gold Alleviate in your Bank for us.) in your Business Venture for a long term and pay us monthly on an agreeable terms to be worked out later. Our lives and future of my two children depends on these funds and as such, I will be grateful if you can assist us. I am seeking your assistance to invest this fund out of Africa for investment purpose. I want you to come on board help clear this money from the deposit company, open an account on your name, and transfer the funds to your designated account in your country. Why I also want you is that my husband specifically put it in his will and advice me that I must consult a foreign partner to assist me to move the funds out of Africa, I think was to save as a check on my part so that I would not loose the money, as this is the only money left for the success of my two children in this generation. What I demanded from you is to assure me the safety of this money when it finally gets to you.. Further information and arrangement will commence as soon as trust, confidence and good relationship is established. I shall be most grateful if you could maintain this high level of confidentiality I repose on you concerning this matter. Please reply me through my email address. Thanks for your personal consideration. Yours Sincerely, Mary Manto --------------------------------------------- I know you have all had them, & every day, anyone with a business gets a few of them, but people still fall for them.

Sorry to hear you had to go through another surgery. Hope all is fairing better. It's been a long time. These scammers. I get them regular. I think they must buy lists as well as visit web- sites to get emails. All of them are different. As far as the "Story" but they all sound the same. This is deffinitely something to stay away from. I described it to my husband about a year ago after the first I recieved. I actually copied it and asked a couple people if I should forward it to the authorities. My husband told me he had "heard" of someone in Fla that tried to participate in something like that and ended up Dead! I don't know, but I simply delete them. Nice to hear from you....
