New e-mail scam, this one's a goodie

Check this out.

E-mail subject: Prince

ATTN,

I NEED YOUR HELP May the blessing of God be upon you and grant you the
wisdom and sympathy to understand my situation and how much I need your
help. SAMUEL DOE,ex- Head of State (Federal Republic of liberia) was my
husband that was asasinated by an oposition leader headed by Mr YOMI JOHNSON
.

Since the death of my husband, I have been subjected to all sorts of
harassments, intimidations and inhumane treatments, with negative reports
emanating from the government and the press regarding my husband's past
regime and my family is been placed on surveliance.

Most of our trusted Associates betrayed us because of Ministerial Jobs and
appointments. I need your immediate help, I beg of you. I need your help to
transfer what I call "our future hope" the sum of Thirty Million United
State Dollars (US$30,000,000) from my late husband's private vault which he
deposited into a security firm befor his death.

The last transfer of Ten Million United State Dollars (US$10,000,000) I made
into a friend's foreign account at Europe, after the successful transfer, my
friend denied me my money because of my restricted movement within Liberia.
That is the main point why I need your help. I lost so much trying to make
transfer through some associates.

This fund is considered as the main source of my family's future hope. When
this US$30Million dollars is transferred, my son Jimoh Doe who is also my
close Confidant would be able to establish an investment with your
assistance on our family behalf until I come out of my travail and
tormentors. For your information, my communication and movement are under
strict surveillance therefore make all your communications to me through my
E-MAIL ADDRESS.

This is to ensure maximum confidentiality and secret.If you HELP me receive
this money from the security company into a foreign account, I WILL reward
you with 20% of the total sum I will also compensate you for your
inconveniences and 10% for expenses incurred. I am depending on this fund
and I am counting on you for my future and that of my family.

I wait patiently for your response.Please include your contact details
,telephone, fax and nationality.

Yours truly,

MS Cynthia Doe

hahaha, what a bag of shite

I got this a couple of weeks ago.

From: Aroujo Tao Savimbi

This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the
fact that we have not met. The message could be
strange but real, if you pay some attention to it.
I could have notified you about it at least for the
sake of your integrity. Please accept my sincere
apologies. In bringing this message of goodwill to
you, I have to say that I have no intentions of
causing you any pains.

I am Mr. Aroujo Tao Savimbi, son of the late rebel
leader Jonas Savimbi of Angola who was killed on the
22nd of February 2002. I managed to get your contact
details through the internet myself largely due to
time essence and I was desperately looking for a
person to assist me in this confidential business.

My late father, Jonas Savimbi was able to deposit a
large sum of money with a security vault in Europe.
My father is death and the movement of his family
members (including me) is restricted. We are
forbidden to either travel abroad or out of our
localities. Presently our movement are monitored.
My family and I do not have any access to any of
these deposits with banks in Angola and Europe.
So,we really need your complete assistance in this
transaction.

Right now there is a rush for my Father's wealth
but home and abroad by the Government and relatives
who are claiming that most of the wealth was got by
arms and smuggling and illegal sales of diamonds.

You can know more about my father by checking his
profile at URL below:
www.kwacha.com/edoc2.htm

His wealth has been estimated to be to over
US$1 billion and being close to my father,
It happened that my mother is in possession some
of the documents of the deposits with some security
companies and only my mother and I know about
this deposit with some securities companies in
Europe.

I have spoken with the security company that is
operational Manager, he is ready and willing to
release the two trunk boxes to who ever I issue a
power of attroney in his/her names as the new
beneficiary of the deposit.

Presently, there is US$50,000,000.00 cash and
precious materials my father moved to Europe before
his death is deposited with a security company in Europe
which I will give you their contact and the relevant
and necessary documents, the password to the
vault and power of attorney to allow you to the
vault.

I am, therefore, soliciting your assistance to travel
to Europe to recieve this money phyiscally, set up
bank accounts in Europe and transfer in bits into
your home bank account before my government get
wind of the fund. You know my father was a rebel
leader in Angola before his death. My reason for
doing this is because it will be difficult for the
Angolan government to trace my father's money to
an individual's account,especially when such an
individual has no relationship, I decided to chose
you for this transaction.

I am currently and temporarily living in Angola
and as refugee status, I intend to communication
with you as regards this transaction on a satellite
phone to avoid intervention by the authorities.

Moreover, the political climate in Angola at the
moment being so sensitive and unstable. The
password and information that I will send you a
power of attorney and contact of the security firm,
when you are ready to proceed to Europe to enable
you gain access and receive the the funds on behalf
of the family.

PLEASE YOUR CONFIDENTIALITY IN THIS TRANSACTION IS
HIGHLY REQUIRED.

Endeavor to send your full names, address,
confidential telephone and fax number to enable me
issue a power of attorney to you and refer you to the
security company in Amsterdam for immediate payment.

Yours sincerely,
Aroujo Tao Savimbi.
