I got a mail, which I must post here:
Kufour Achanpoong
PH:0022507345353

Request to secure an invest some funds

Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship with you for this simple and sincere business. I am Kufour Achanpoong ,the only child of late Mr and Mrs Jonathan Achanpoong. My father was a very wealthycocoa and coffee merchant based in Abidjan, the economic capital of Ivory Coast, before he was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outings to discuss on a business.

When my mother died on the 21st October 1983, my father took me so special because I am motherless. Before the death of my father on 29th June 2002 in a private hospital here in Abidjan. He secretly called me on his bedside and told me that he has a sum of us$8,200,000(eight million two hundred thousand, United states dollars) left in a suspense account in a local bank company here, that he used name as the next of kin to the said deposit. He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose,(Such as
real estate management).

I am honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways.

1)to provide a bank account where this money would be transferred into

2)to serve as the guardian of this fund and invest this fund nto a viable business venture and look after the investment till I finish my schooling

3)to make arrangement for me to come over to your country after the money has been transferred to the account you will provide.

Moreover, I am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as compensation for your effort/input after the successful transfer of this fund to your nominated account overseas.

If you are truly disposed to handle this transfer and investment for me, call me on the telephone number as above so that we can discuss the modalities on how to go about this. I am not just looking for somebody to help me transfer this fund, I want somebody that will take me as a brother and give me a family once more.

Thanks and God bless

Of course there are people agreeing to it. There wouldn't be people continuing to do it otherwise.

This kind of scam has been going on for awhile. Some people fall for it.

I remember posting in HoS how I would slice the scammer's skin off one square centimeter at a time, then salt 'em up and feed the bloody almost-corpse to a horde of rats. I truly feel that way about Nigerian scammers. :evil:
