Do I have 'idiot' written on my forehead?
Bitched on: Saturday, February 03, 2007 Time: 2/03/2007 01:52:00 AM
I found this mail in my Gmail email account. What the hell? Do I look stupid to you?
Dear customer
I am MR O*********, credit officer of African ***** Bank. I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.
In June, 2000, a German property consultant and importer of used cars, Mr Andreas Schranner made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$20,000,000.00 (twenty Million United States Dollars only) in my branch. It was to our utter surprise that we heard of his death, wife and children in an AF4590 plane crash in July 2003. See website. On further investigation,I found out that he died without making a WILL, and hitherto, all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. Mr Andreas Schranner was residing at No * *********, *********, burkina faso.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr Andreas Schranner did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$20,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year.
No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to Laws of burkina faso, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will be declared frozen and forfeited to the burkina faso Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin or business partner to Mr Andreas Schranner so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials.
This is simple, I will like so that the i can prepare the necessary documents that will put you in place as the next of kin or business partner. Your role in the transaction is to send an application for claim of the funds to our bank. Then, as top officials of the bank, I shall work behind-the-scene to make sure that your application is approved by the management of the bank, and the funds transferred to your nominated bank account.
Please note that there is no iota of risks at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done legitimately and with my positions as top officials of the bank i would ensure a successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately to my email box.
Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy communication.You should observe utmost CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECRECY in this transaction,and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I will require your assistance to invest my share in your country. I look forward to your prompt response. Thanks and regards.
MR O*********
Firstly, I have to observe utmost confidentiality and secrecy? What? Is it illegal? This is so beyond me... Really? Do people fall for this? I am to stand in as the next-of-kin, the business partner? What? Plus with all the grammatical and spelling errors (I corrected them before posting), this email doesn't seem at all credible. And this is all the way in Africa, while I'm in Singapore. Remember the Nigerian scam? Stupid ordinary folks from Asia (and in Singapore especially) falling for the scams; while most lost a lot of money, there were a few cases of missing people after leaving for Nigeria.
Incredible, and I'm supposed to do this secretly? What do you take me for? An idiot?Labels: politics, rubbish
