Moreover, he is the greatest supplier of cattle beef and other dairy products to the whole of West Africa .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He had informed us about the huge amount of money he spends on the purchase of a particular but very important cattle medicine. Precisely, he buys US$5,000 per carton. He asked if our organisation can source for a cheaper supplier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We did market research and discovered that we can buy these medicine in Europe for US$2,000 per carton. We moved a proposal to Alhaji Dongo, to supply him at US$4,800 per carton which they accepted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As these supplies progressed and our company was doing fine, I requested my boss to increase my salary. He was so upset that he sacked me without benefits after ten years of dedicated service. Though I was later called back when another kind-hearted senior staff protested against his action.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During my moments of being sacked, which lasted for close to two months, I was so desperate that I went to the Dongo Farms and infomed Alhaji Mabolo Dongo that I have a foriegn contact that will be willing to supply him this same products at US$4,000 per carton. He was very happy with this news, and in turn confided to me that he was about to place order for one thousand cartons following a suspected outbreak of disease in his farms. I assured him that my foriegn contact will be in the position to manufacture and supply to him; infact I convinced him that my former boss usually buys from my foriegn contact and that is why he sales to him at a higher price.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HOWEVER, I INFORMED ALHAJI DONGO THAT HE WILL HAVE TO PAY CASH IN ADVANCE BEFORE MY FORIEGN CONTACT WILL SUPPLY TO HIM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the moment he has stopped all contact with my boss.Please consider on how to handle this profitable project and kindly contact me immediately for details and negotiations as regards my commission. However,I will insist that my commission will be 20% of the total profit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note: We will buy one thousand carton at US$2,000,000. We sell to them at US$4,000,000. Our client pays cash before lifting of the goods. They must not know our purchase point in Europe .&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9136405621190533472-4252801989790179328?l=419laughs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/feeds/4252801989790179328/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9136405621190533472&amp;postID=4252801989790179328' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/4252801989790179328'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/4252801989790179328'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/2009/09/this-one-was-brilliant.html' title='This one was brilliant'/><author><name>Strategist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03245950256712031849</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136405621190533472.post-8206063827448585983</id><published>2008-12-23T09:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-23T09:27:06.462-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Ahmed John Kasongo</title><content type='html'>Good day,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My name is Mr. Ahmed John Kasongo.

I believe that you will be honest to fulfill my final wish before I will die.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am Mr. James Kattoun , I am 58 years old, I am  suffering from a long time cancer of the brain .From all indication my condition is really deteriorating, and my doctors have courageously advised me that I may not live beyond the next two  months, this is because the cancer stage has reached a critical stage. I was brought up  in a motherless babys home, and was married to my late wife for twenty  years without a child . My wife and I are true Christians, but quite  unfortunately, she was killed during the (ABIDJAN- BOUAKE) Crisis some years back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since her death I decided not to re-marry, I sold all my   belongings and deposited all the sum of $10.2million dollars with a security company in The United States Of America as it was pakaged and registered as a personal Valuable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Presently, this money is still in their custody, and the management  just wrote me as the Legitimate beneficiary to come forward to receive the Deposit after keeping it for so long or rather issue a letter of authorization to  somebody to receive it on my behalf since I can not come over as a result of my   illness, Presently,I'm with my laptop in a hospital  where I have been undergoing treatment. I have since lost my ability to walk about or do anything by myself and my doctors have told me that I have only a few months to live.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is my last wish to see that this money is invested in any  business  of your choice and  the gain made every year or 6 months as the case may be,  distributed each year among the charity organization, the poor and the motherless babys home where I come from. I want your good   humanitarian, to also use this money to fund churches, orphanages and widows around, 20% for you , I must let you know that this was a very hard decision, but I had to take a bold step towards this issue because I have no further option. I hope you will help see my last wishes come true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the security company. I will also issue you a letter of authority, which will prove that you  are the new beneficiary of my funds. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. I will be happy if you can come down to Ivory Coast if possible&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope to hear from you soonest at&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Awaiting your reply&lt;br /&gt;Yours Sincerely&lt;br /&gt;Mr James Kattoun&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9136405621190533472-3943820082029715343?l=419laughs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/feeds/3943820082029715343/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9136405621190533472&amp;postID=3943820082029715343' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/3943820082029715343'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/3943820082029715343'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/2008/12/james-kattoun.html' title='James Kattoun'/><author><name>Strategist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03245950256712031849</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136405621190533472.post-1923610332170555455</id><published>2008-12-10T13:02:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T13:03:23.913-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Denis Mwanje</title><content type='html'>Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got your contact from the web. I know that this letter may come to you as a surprise, hence I plead for your pardon and understanding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I write to invite you for a joint business relationship. I work in a foremost financial institution, and I have some funds which I need your assistance to receive into your account for a joint investment between us. In the year 2003, an expatriate customer of my bank made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve calendar months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarded address but got no reply. After some months we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employee that our customer died in a plane crash accident. All attempts to trace his relations were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered he did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents including his deposit document in my bank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to local banking law, if the account owner is certified death and nobody comes forward to claim the money after five years, the money will revert to the ownership of the state. Presently, no one will ever come forward to claim this money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now my bank is ready to release the fund to any one who comes along to claim the fund with the correct deposit information. For this reason, I am looking for a foreigner who will stand in as the beneficiary/next of kin of our deceased customer. This is simple. All you have to do is to immediately send me the details of a BANK ACCOUNT anywhere in the world, YOUR ADDRESS, TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS for me to arrange payment of the money in your favour as the relation of the late customer and the money will then be paid to you legally for us to share in mutual agreement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the transaction. I will use my position and connection in the bank here to arrange the payment in your favour as the relation of our dead customer. We shall employ the services of an attorney to obtain all necessary documents and letter of administration in your favour for the payment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As soon as I receive your word of honour to co-operate in the business, I will send you the detailed transaction procedure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;MR.

Below is the site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.http://www.fondazionedivittorio.it&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After further investigation, it was discovered that some of the grant beneficiary did not claim their grant as their grant funds has been in our account for the passed three years. So, 7, 000 000.00 Euro (Seven Million&lt;br /&gt;Euro) is still unclaimed in our account and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is the Italians laws, at the expiration of 4 years the funds will revert to Italian Government treasury. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is re-organizing the ownership status of the funds in question and subsequently transferring same to you as payment of the Grants that was not claim by the recipient.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MODALITIES:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My duty is to ensure that the legal parameters for this transaction is by all means satisfied and within the ambit of local/international laws. My attorney is directly and entirely responsible for the facilitation of the beneficiary documents that will put you or your company in place as the rightful beneficiary of the said funds. Thereafter, you will be legally qualified to transfer the funds into your secured bank account for management purposes only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most importantly, you will be required to:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[1]. Act as the original beneficiary of the funds.&lt;br /&gt;[2]. Receive the funds into a business/private bank account.&lt;br /&gt;[3]. Invest/Manage the funds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you have been positioned as the bonafied beneficiary, the attorney will also file in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and probate in your favor, hence the consummation of this transaction is 100% risk free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you prefer to be re-contacted for more express information, please send us your:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[1] Full Names:&lt;br /&gt;[2] Contact address:&lt;br /&gt;[3] Direct Telephone No:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I awaits your response.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My regards,&lt;br /&gt;Michael Jose Pezzi&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9136405621190533472-1208980684221117351?l=419laughs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/feeds/1208980684221117351/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9136405621190533472&amp;postID=1208980684221117351' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/1208980684221117351'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/1208980684221117351'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/2008/11/michael-pezzi.html' title='Michael Pezzi'/><author><name>Strategist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03245950256712031849</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136405621190533472.post-7511186093781317643</id><published>2008-11-29T10:55:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-29T10:55:42.500-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Dr. Tellervo Bergroth (Mrs)</title><content type='html'>Message / Dr. Tellervo Bergroth (Mrs)&lt;br /&gt;Dear,&lt;br /&gt;     I am contacting you to let you know my desire to establish a charity foundation in your country with this sum of: £1.500.000 (One million five hundred thousand British pounds) which I inherited from my late husband (Dr.Tord Bergroth)&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;It is my desire to see that this money is invested to any business/organization of your choice in your country and distributed each year among the charity organizations, motherless baby?s home, mosques, churches, Schools, supporting destitute aged men and women or whatever you may have in mind that will be to the benefit of the less fortunate.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I took this decision to hand over this benevolence (funds) to you as I am currently hospitalize here in Abidjan where I am undergoing treatment for my cerebrovascular disease (stroke) and treatments for  my up coming breast cancer surgery operation.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Please reply as soon as possible with your bellow information?s, so that I will give you all the relevant information that will authorise the release and transfer of the money to you as my duly assigned representative.&lt;br /&gt;1.

My father was a highly reputable busnness magnet-(a cocoa merchant)who operated in the capital of Ivory coast during his days. It is sad to say that he passed away mysteriously in France during one of his business trips abroad year 12th.Febuary 2005.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though his sudden death was linked or rather suspected to have been masterminded by an uncle of his who travelled with him at that time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But God knows the truth! My mother died when I was just 4 years old, and since then my father took me so special. Before his death on Febuary 12th 2005 he called the secretary who accompanied him to the hospital and told him that he has the sum of Ten Million United State Dollars.(USD$10 000 000) left in a security company in a mettalic trunk box, but the security company didn't know the content because it was registered as family valuables personal for security reasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am just 21 years old and a university undergraduate and really don't know what to do. This is because I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political crisis here in Ivory coast. The death of my father actually brought sorrow to my life. ,I am in a sincere desire of your humble assistance in this regards.Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these few questions:-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Can I completely trust you?&lt;br /&gt;2.

I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone (not even myself)but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I wouldlive my life a different way from how I have lived it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate and extended family members bas well as a few close friends .I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul so, I have decided to give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far, I have Distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, Somalia and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of Twelve Million,six hundred thousand&lt;br /&gt;dollars($12,600,000,00) that I have with a finance House(Bank) abroad. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and despatch it to charity organizations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;N/B:KINDLY NOTE THAT 20% of this funds must go to the tsunami victims and another 10% for your effort and time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regards.&lt;br /&gt;Abdul Jabaar.&lt;br /&gt;Reply me via my email below&lt;br /&gt;Email: abduljabaar.charity101@gmail.com&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9136405621190533472-6512695398295545485?l=419laughs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/feeds/6512695398295545485/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9136405621190533472&amp;postID=6512695398295545485' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/6512695398295545485'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/6512695398295545485'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/2008/08/abdul-jabaar.html' title='Abdul Jabaar'/><author><name>Strategist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03245950256712031849</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136405621190533472.post-8140130119646462785</id><published>2008-08-08T11:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-08T11:57:34.908-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Tanko Bama</title><content type='html'>Dear Friend,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a financial consultant based in Cote d'Ivoire .

I am married to Joel Mark   who worked with  SIERRA LOENE embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2003.We were married for 25 years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before his death we were both born again Christian.Since his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $(5.5m) in a Security Company here in Abidjan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months due to cancer problem.  Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a servant of GOD that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want a church that will use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God is maintained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bible made us to understand that "Blessed is the hand that giveth". I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that "the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace".&lt;br /&gt;I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband's relatives are around me always. I don't want them to know about this development.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Security Company in Abidjan. I will also issue you an authorisation letter that will proove you the present beneficiary of this fund.&lt;br /&gt;I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please always be prayerful all through your life.Contact me on my  email  any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another church for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hoping to receive your reply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remain blessed in the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your's Sister In Christ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  Mrs Moami Joel&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9136405621190533472-4882791833153352542?l=419laughs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/feeds/4882791833153352542/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9136405621190533472&amp;postID=4882791833153352542' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/4882791833153352542'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/4882791833153352542'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/2008/07/mrs-moami-joel.html' title='Mrs  Moami Joel'/><author><name>Strategist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03245950256712031849</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136405621190533472.post-5532432215290134984</id><published>2008-07-29T20:16:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-29T20:16:42.700-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Joe Kabuga</title><content type='html'>Dear Sir,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am soliciting for your interest for gold transaction, I have discussed with the local minners in the village who owns the Gold dust in Guinea Conakry as their representative. I have explained to them that I want to contact a capable person in abroad who has the resources and capability to buy all the gold dust that is on the floor.As you may knows these minners have  250 kg of Gold dust and bars deposited  in a security vault in Guinee Conakry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This gold is owned by the local Minners, these people instructed me to search for a capable person who will be their permanent buyers of the gold for four years. At the present, they are waiting for a reliable and capable person who will be disposing the gold for them. As you may know due to their inability to sell by themselves directly to the buyers,they contacted me to be their Representative on searching for a reliable and capable person abroad who will be handling the disposal of this gold dust for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They assured me that once you showed a sincere interest on working with them confidentially, they would sign contract with you on this respect.Consequently, they instructed me to inform who so ever I may trust to start coming to Guinea Conakry for the commencing of this project, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I assure you should not worry about your security as i will welcome you directly from the airport with an adquate security who will be guiding and protecting you until you leave the shores of Africa to abroad. As you may know,They told me that their positions in the government will expire in the next four years and that is the reason why you should enter into a contract with them for four years as they will be in position to be making the gold available for disposal through you for that four years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, on your arrival to Guinea Conakry, all of us will have a meeting and decide on the commission that will be given to me on each batch of transaction executed, forget about the price as i will bring the price to your favor per kg. and will help secure a visiting visa for you come to Guinee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will be waiting for your urgent response with your direct telephone number.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yours Faithfully,&lt;br /&gt;Mr Joe Kabuga.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9136405621190533472-5532432215290134984?l=419laughs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/feeds/5532432215290134984/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9136405621190533472&amp;postID=5532432215290134984' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/5532432215290134984'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/5532432215290134984'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/2008/07/joe-kabuga.html' title='Joe Kabuga'/><author><name>Strategist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03245950256712031849</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136405621190533472.post-6761326392999546950</id><published>2008-07-20T11:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-20T12:00:09.421-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Guei Marc</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Dear Colleague,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On a very happy note and bearing in mind the staunch  commitment that you had put into the quest to see that the fund was transferred  to you for claim as we had arranged but to no avail, I write to inform you that  at last, the fund transfer had been a SUCCESS. Since all our effort in  conjunction with yours were met with various failures and disappointments after  the other, there was an influential party from Britain that was approached on  our behalf by a Finance &amp;amp; Management Supports Initiatives (a consulting  firm); and with her (influential party) imputes, the Fund was paid out and I  have collected my own share.&lt;br /&gt;Presently, I am in Ecuador where, in partnership  with a core investor in the Mining Sector of their economy, we are investing in  the industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, I am not oblivious of the fact that you did your best  in that context, although, it seem that element of doubt crept in. You were not  to blame, as there were many circumstances that wouldin the  reflect such  scepticism to any reasonable being.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For your sincere but unfruitful sacrifices, I pressurized the influential  woman to concede some amount as COMPENSATION to you, for the resource that you  implunged even the time and inconveniences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recomfirming your address to  him:   &lt;a title="blocked::http://fr.mc276.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=christian_mba33@yahoo.fr" href="http://fr.mc276.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=christian_mba33@yahoo.fr"&gt;&lt;span title="blocked::http://fr.mc276.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=christian_mba33@yahoo.fr"  style="color:#003399;"&gt;christian_mba33@yahoo.fr&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your full  name................................... &lt;br /&gt;Age................................................ &lt;br /&gt;Home............................................. &lt;br /&gt;Address.........................................&lt;br /&gt;Cell Phone  number................................. &lt;br /&gt;Fax...........................................&lt;br /&gt;Country  location............................ &lt;br /&gt;Occupation:.................................. &lt;br /&gt;E-mail................................................&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sum of $US  800,000 was what she agreed to as your compensation value, and the sum was made  in draft but, because of my appointment in Ecuador and too, I&lt;br /&gt;could not get  through to you since your number at any time indicated "not in use", I then  handed it over to the Secretary of the Finance &amp;amp; Management Supports  Initiatives, the consulting firm.

Wesson</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Compliment of the day to you!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am Fredrick C. Wesson the branch Manager of a commercial  Bank here in United Kingdom. &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;In the process of auditing our bank  accounts this quarter, I discovered that there is a dormant account with the sum  of Three Million British Pounds trapped in it. After thorough verifications and  investigations, I discovered that the account owner is a foreigner and that he  is dead. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;This money can be paid to the relatives of our late customer  only through our head office; I have contacted you to present you as the next of  kin to the deceased before our head so that the money in the dormant account  will be paid to you. The reason I contacted you to stand as the deceased next of  kin is because the deceased operated this account secretly without the knowledge  of anyone because he lied during his divorce that he didn't have any wealth  except those he declared before the court and for this reason, he kept an open  next of kin to this account. Since the dormant account is domiciled in my  branch, I will provide you with all necessary information from my branch to back  you up as the next of kin at our head office. I will also write a letter to our  head office from my branch recommending that you are indeed the true next of kin  to the deceased.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In view of this, I am seeking for your co-operation and  understanding to stand as the next of kin to our deceased customer to enable us  claim the fund from our bank. If this idea is accepted by you, kindly reply to  me and upon your reply, I will give you details. On getting your response, we  shall discuss on the percentage ratio to share the money upon conclusion. Note  that this mail is intended to you the Director of the company.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Best Regards,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Mr. Fredrick C.

I am married to Chief,  Dr. Alexander Clement, who deals in Cocoa and Gold business, later became the director general of Cocoa and Gold business in Cote d'Ivoire for twenty five years before he died on 14th January in the year 2006. We were married for twenty years God gave us a son, who is 18 years old now, and because of my husband love to me he refused to marry another wife for more children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Late husband died after a brief illness from food poison which lasted for only four days. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get another child outside my matrimonial home, my husband relatives was  responsible for his death because they want to  inherit the entire  legacy, I was ill and my son is still a little boy. Before the death of my husband he deposited the sum of UDS$ 9. 500.000,000.(Nine Million,Five hundred Thousand United States Dollars)) in a suspense account with a bank here in Cote d Ivoire, Since my Doctor told me that I have a little time left (about Six months) due to my cancer problem. Having known my condition and I can not survive this cancer illness, and I don't want to lose my only son, I decided to transfer this fund and my son out of this country to your care.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I took this decision because I don't want to  lose every  thing my husband has worked for, and my husband relatives are not even good at all because they are responsible for the death of  my husband in other to have all his properties and I don't want my  husband's efforts to be used by those that conspired  for his death because they may return back to still kill my son if they have the opportunity. so please if you are willing and honest to assist me, kindly respond back to me , and as soon as I receive your reply of accepting to help me I will give you all the details including your percentage for assisting us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best regards&lt;br /&gt;Mrs Mary Clement and son&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9136405621190533472-3093903802232627550?l=419laughs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/feeds/3093903802232627550/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9136405621190533472&amp;postID=3093903802232627550' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/3093903802232627550'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9136405621190533472/posts/default/3093903802232627550'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://419laughs.blogspot.com/2008/07/mary-clement.html' title='Mary Clement'/><author><name>Strategist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03245950256712031849</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136405621190533472.post-9187124632445653790</id><published>2008-07-20T11:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-20T11:41:38.144-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='419 Scams'/><title type='text'>Welcome to 419 Laughs</title><content type='html'>Ok I'll admit - its probably very tasteless to develop a blog around 419 Scams but this is one of those things that I've been wanting to do for ages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those who don't know, a 419 Scam is often linked to Nigerians and basically involves a person receiving an e-mail from "a dear friend" who would like to drop a gazillion or so dollars into your account... All they need is a couple of bucks from you to "facilitate" the transaction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more info please check out www.419eater.com to see some of the stories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyways, one of the things that always amazes me is the sheer creativity that some of these authors come up with when crafting their letters to prospective marks.
