URGENT BUSINESS REQUEST

ATTENTION: THE PRESIDENT, Sir/ Madam.

This letter might surprise you because we have met neither in person nor by correspondence. But I believe it is one day that you got to know somebody either in physical or through correspondence. I got your contact through discreet inquiry from the chambers of commerce and industry, you and your organization were revealed as being quite astute in private entrepreneurship, one has no doubt in your ability to handle a financial business transaction. However, I am the first son of His Royal majesty,Obong.D. Abbot , and the traditional Ruler of Eleme Province in the oil producing area of River State of Nigeria. I am making this contact to you in respect of US$60,000,000.00 (Sixty Million United State Dollars), which I inherited, from my late father. This money was accumulated from royalties paid to my father as compensation by the oil firms located in our area as a result of oil presence on our land, which hamper agriculture, which is our major source of livelihood. Unfortunately my father died from protracted diabetes.But before his death he called my attention and informed me that he lodged some funds on a two boxes with a security firm with an open beneficiary status. The lodgment security code number was also revealed to me, he then advised me to look for a reliable business partner abroad, that will assist me in investing the money in a lucrative business as a result of economic instability in Nigeria. So this is the main reason why I am contacting you for us to move this money from the security firm to any Country of your choice for investment purpose. So I will like you to be the ultimate beneficiary, so that the funds can be moved in your name and particulars to any Country of your choice where it will be claimed and invested. Hence my father have had intimated the security firm personnel that the beneficiary of the box is his foreign partner whose particulars will be forwarded to the firm when due. But I will guide you Accordingly. As soon as the funds reach, I will then come over to meet you in person, so that we can discuss physically on investment potentials. Based on this assistance my Family and I have unanimously decided to give you 20% of the total money, 2% for Charity home, 3% for expenses, which may arise during this transaction, Fax and phone bills inclusive. The balance of 75% you will invest and manage for my Family. I hereby guarantee you that this is not government money, it is not drug money and it is not money from arms deal. Though you have to maintain high degree of confidentiality on this matter. I will give more details and proofs as soon as I receive your favorable reply. Please reply to my Email Address:king2_abbot@mail.com I hope this will be the beginning of a prosperous relationship between my family and your family. evertheless if you are for any reason not interested, kindly inform me immediately so that I will look for another contact. I am waiting for your quick response.

Yours faithfully,
Prince Obong .Abbot

That is one of the oldest email scams known to man. The closer you read it, the more astonishing it is that anyone could fall for it.

I got a couple of those. Responded rather harshly I think, as they never replied to me in turn. Boo-hoo-hoo, heh.
