Another SCAM ALERT - thankfully from an IDIOT!
Interesting to know that the scammers are targeting people's names now - I recieved the beauty below directly addressed to me.
But the idiot got the surnames mixed up anyways.
FROM THE DESK OF BARRISTER FRANK SMITH
PRINCIPAL ATTORNEY OF GARRY CHAMBERS
35 EWU AVENUE,OSHODI-APAPA EXPRESSWAY
LAGOS NIGERIA.
Dear ,
I am Barrister Frank Smith, a solicitor at law. The personal attorney
to a late Fredrick Gbenga, foreign expatriate who hails from your
country and shares the same last name with you.I wish to bring to
your hearing a business proposition, which is by nature strictly
confidential, and I beg your pardon to accept my unsolicited email to
you, I will like to seek your help in which I know that a deal of
this magnitude will make anyone worried and apprehensive but I am
assuring you not to be afraid, as all will be well at the end of this
endeavor.
This is a genuine transaction and is 100% risk free. All I'm
demanding from you is your honest co-operation to enable us achieve
our goal, and not a perfidious person. On the 21st of April 2001 it
was reported to us that my Client, his wife and their only daughter
were involved in a Local Plane Crash at Kano State, enroute Abuja
(The Capital City) all occupants in the Plane lost their lives,
unfortunately on this same flight were other dignitaries like the
Sports Minister and a host of others.
Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate
any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved
unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to
track his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his
family hence I contacted you. I contacted you to assist in claiming
this fund from the finance house where he deposited it before his
untimely death.
The finance company where the deceased had an account valued at about
USD$7.3 million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the next of
kin or have the account confiscated within the next ten official
working days.Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives
for over 2 years now I seek your consent to present you as the next
of kin of the deceased since you have the same last name so that the
proceeds of this account valued at USD$7.3 million dollars can be
paid to you as the next of kin. AllI need is your full maximum
support and cooperation to enable us achieve this transaction within
10 working days and I guarantee that this will be executed under a
legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the
law. And i will also like you to indicate your interest by sending
your:
(a) Full name and address.
(b) Your private telephone and fax number.
(c) Age and sex.
With these information.s from you, we will proceed with this
transaction as the next of kin to late Mr. Fredrick. To enable us
commence all the legal documents immediately.
Best regards,
Barr Frank Smith
