To: barrister_matto@yahoo.com Subject: Please Read: Important Information!!! From: "Sgt. Barry Crawford" <Barry.Crawf@barrycrawford.zzn.com> Add to Address Book Add Mobile Alert Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 21:07:38 +0200 Greetings from Iraq, Perhaps this email may come to you as a surprise. I got your contact from a search on the internet and I am taking the chance to contact you. My name is Sgt. Barry Crawford.I am an American Soldier serving in the Military in the peace keeping mission in Iraq . I am in dire need of your assistance. I am making a concealed request to you for an assistance to move the sum of ($10,000,000.00 US Dollars) Ten Million US Dollars to you for safe keeping.I am left with no other way out,hence I am on the internet trying to establish contact with the outside world to seek a reliable and trusted person who can render assistance to me.I hope to be concluding my service here in Iraq in the next 5 months before I return home. The money in question was discovered in some barrels at a farm house near one of Saddam's old palace in Tikrit-Iraq during a rescue operation.While we tortured 3 terrorist we captured during the operation to extract information, they confessed being rebels for Ayman Al-Zawahiri and followers of Mahmoud al-Hassani, a Shiite cleric known for anti-American views. They took us to a cave in the farm house which served as their operating base. It was here me and staff Sgt Richard Burnette made the discovery of the money. We agreed to keep aside some of the money for ourselves before disclosing it. Altogether there were 100 millon dollars in the Barrels but we are disclosing only 80million dollars, keeping 10 million dollars for ourselves. I know you may wonder why, but no compensation will make up for the risk we have taken with our lives in this hell called Iraq . Master Sgt Richard Burnette just recovered from a very serious injury which almost claimed his life. Thousands of American families have lost their loved ones to the war. Reports show that atleast 3,576 members of the US. military have died and 26,350 wounded since the Iraq war started in March 2003. Please visit this link to see how much of my collegues have died so far in our quest to do our nation proud. http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2003/iraq/forces/casualties/ http://www.defenselink.mil/heroes/50heroes/Burnette.html http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/meast/10/31/iraq.main/index.html http://www.granma.cu/ingles/2006/agosto/vier18/35suman.html The experience so far here in Iraq has been hellish. I am sincerely hoping you are a honest person who will help us to keep this money in safe custody until our assignment here in Iraq elapses and we return back to the United States .We assure and promise to give you 20% of this amount if you help us to keep custody of this money until our return. Also we plead that this information be kept top secret between you and us to protect our job with the US Military. We have been able to get the money out of Iraq in a box to a safe location through our colleague here who is with the British Army. We are beleiving that you will help us keep custody of the funds until our return. But should you have any reasons to decline this request,please destroy this message as any leakage of this information will be too bad for us soldiers. Please this email is of utmost confidentiality.

Thanks for putting the Statoil job offer scam up. We are the real TravelEssence in the Netherlands and these people have been using our name as the agent contact. We have nothing to do with this and it is quite sad that some people may have actually paid money and been taken in. The real TravelEssence www.travelessence.nl offers holidays to New Zealand and Australia to people based in the Netherlands. We do not offer travel to the Netherlands, nor any sorts of immigration documentation service. Nor do we work with Statoil. If you have received a job offer from Statoil as per the above, then sorry but they are suckering you. Don't pay them anything. Regards, Andrew Morten TravelEssence Netherlands |

LORD REX CHAMBERS LEGAL PRACTITIONER & NOTARY PUBLIC HIGH COURT REPRESENTATIVE SUITE 202 OMEGA PLAZA, APAPA LAGOS - NIGERIA. Attn: Friend, It is obvious that this proposal will come to you as a surprise. This is because we have not met before but i am inspired to send you this email by the huge fund transfer opportunity that will be of mutual benefit to two of us. However, I am Barrister Samuel Smith,the personal Attorney to late Engr.Steve Hartwick, who works with Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) in Nigeria. On the 21st of April 2000, my client, his wife and their two children were involved in a car accident along Shagamu/Lagos Express Road.Unfortunately they all lost their lives in the event of the accident, since then I have made several inquiries to several Embassies to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the Internet to locate any member of his family but of no avail, hence I contacted you.I contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client, I can easily convince the bank with my legal practice that you are the only surviving relation of my client. Otherwise the Estate he left behind will be confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where these huge deposits were lodged. Particularly, the Bank where the deceased had an account valued at about 16 million U.S dollars (sixteen million U.S.Americadollars).Consequently,The BANK 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 his relatives for over several years now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased so that he proceeds of this account valued at $16 million USD. can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money.55% to me and 40% to you,while 5% should be for expenses or tax as your government may require. I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see his deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect us from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me by email to enable us discuss further. I want you to send to me on your return email with the following information to commence with the claim. 1, Your full Name 2, Your contact Address 3, Your private phone and fax.

I get these emails quite often, here's one i got recently: Dearest One, After much prayer my spirit has directed me to confide in you this top confidencial issue regarding my present predicament. Brief information about myself, my name is Mariam Mustapha, the only surviving Dauther of late Mr Mustapha may his soul rest in perfect peace. Before the death of my father, he was a cocoa merchant and he was also in the government of my country. He was assasinated with my mother and my two elder brothers by the rebels during the heat of the war in my country. The rebels claim that my father was in surport of the government during the war that devided my country into two part. Luckily for me, I was away in the burden school in Ghana a neighbouring country. It was on the BBC Africa that I heard about the tragic death of my parents and brothers but my father was still alive at the time of gun shot and was ruched to the hospital. I was taken to the hospital where he was recieving treatment for gun wounds. One week before his death, he called me to his bed side at the hospital and handed a document to me. The document is covering a deposit of eight million US dollars (US$8.000.000.00) which he deposited in a security company vault in Africa. According to him he said this money is meant to establish his business in europe after his retirement. He instructed me to look for a trust worthy partner in over sea to confide the release of the fund into his account and relocate to his country to establish the money on a lucrative business and live my life quietly. Why am contacting you, I need your assistance in the following: 1.Help to pay for the clearance document charges. 2.Help to invest the money on a lucrative investment in your country. 3. Send me an invitation letter to arrange my travel to your country soon as the transfer is effected into your account. 4.Help to manage the investment for the minimum of five years. 5.Serve as my partner and guidiance in your country during my relocation to your country. Regarding this transaction, I offer you 20% as compensation and 5% your expences over the transaction immediately the transfer is made into your account. Note: If you are interested in this joint venture, signify by replying me as urgent through my e-mail . banmariam85@yahoo.com . and I will scan to you the document covering the money and the contact of the security company in Africa so that you can contact them as my father's partner and beneficiary to start the transfer to your country for qucik investment. Waiting for you urgent reply. Email----banmariam85@yahoo.com Yours sincerely, Maraim Mustapha. |

Received this 4 days ago FROM THE DESK OF MR.IDRIS MUSA. BILL AND EXCHANGE FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPT. BANK OF AFRICA ( BOA) OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO Dear friend, Compliments, I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of BANK OF AFRICA. I am writting to seek your coperation over this business deal. In my department, I discovered an abandoned sum of$15million USD(Fifteen million US dollars)only , in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his entire family in a plane crash that took place in Kenya,East Africa,the Late DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY,a citizen of Atlanta,United States of America but naturalised in Burkinafaso,WestAfrica and contractor with ECOWAS,(ECONOMIC COMMUNITY OF WEST AFRICAN STATES). Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because it cannot be released unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately , all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to makethis businness proposal to you and release the money to you via your foreign bank account as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and this money Could go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remainedunclamed after four years, the money will betransfered into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund.The request for your assistance and maximum co-operation as a foreign citizen to stand as the next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. 40 % of this money will be for you as my foreign partner, inrespect to the provision of a foreign account. 10 %will be set aside for expences incured during the business and 50 % would be for me.There after I will come over to your country for disbursement accoding to the percentages indicated. Therefore to enable the immediate trnansfer of this fund to you as arranged,you must apply first to the bank as the relation or next of kin to the deceased,indicating your claims and wherein the money will be remitted . Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text of application which you will fill and submit to the office of the foreign remittance director of the bank of africa. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is stricly confidential and i will use my position in this Bank to effect a hitch free transfer of the fund. You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter. Trusting to hear from you immediately. Please , visit the website below for more informations about the Plane Crash and the tragic death of the deceased and his entire family, Late DR.GEORGE BRUMLEY. http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/07/20/kenya.crash/index.html Your’s faithfully, MR.IDRIS MUSA Registra tu dominio en http://dominios.ya.com/.
