You guys ain't heard nothin'! I got a phone call yesterday from 'someone' with a very thick African accent....he mumbled something about a 'cashier's check' and 'prize' and asked me something, all the while assuring me that his was a 'reputable company'.
   When I allowed as how I had entered no contest and was sure I had one no prizes, he asked "How you think then I have your name & phone #?"
I laughed and told him how people get such names...and I hung up on him. So help me, he called BACK! He could not believe I didn't want my prize! I still could barely understand him, and said that IF there was someone who spoke better English at his "company", they should call.
So help me, someone with a 'slightly' better Nigerian-sounding accent called back! I asked him what this was...he said I had indeed won this money, and would I be home today so "his boys" could deliver my check.
I asked how much the check was for and where HE was..........."California" and "$87,000".... I explained that *I* wasn't born yesterday and that NO ONE would be offering me $87,000 using a company staffed by people who spoke bad English and calling from California....I finally told him *I* was hanging up, and they were NOT to call me back!

In the hour afterward, I thought of 3-4 things I should have done...including saying "come on over" and having the police waiting....

Dear Beneficiary,

Series of meetings have been held over the past 7 months with the secretary general of the United Nations Organization. This ended 3 days ago. It is obvious that you have not received your fund which is to the tune of $850,000.00 due to past corrupt Governmental Officials who almost held the fund to themselves for their selfish reason and some individuals who have taken advantage of your fund all in an attempt to swindle your funds which has led to so many losses from your end and unnecessary delay in the receipt.

The National Central Bureau of Interpol enhanced by the United Nations and Federal Bureau of Investigation have successfully passed a mandate to the current president of Nigeria his Excellency President Good luck Jonathan to boost the exercise of clearing all foreign debts owed to you and other individuals and organizations who have been found not to have receive their Contract Sum, Lottery/Gambling, Inheritance and the likes. Now how would you like to receive your payment? Because we have two method of payment which is by Check or by ATM card?

ATM Card: We will be issuing you a custom pin based ATM card which you will use to withdraw up to $3,000 per day from any ATM machine that has the Master Card Logo on it and the card have to be renewed in 4 years time which is 2015. Also with the ATM card you will be able to transfer your funds to your local bank account. The ATM card comes with a handbook or manual to enlighten you about how to use it. Even if you do not have a bank account.

Check: To be deposited in your bank for it to be cleared within three working days. Your payment would be sent to you via any of your preferred option and would be mailed to you via UPS. Because we have signed a contract with UPS which should expire by April 15 2011 you will only need to pay $135 instead of $420 saving you $285 So if you pay before April 15 2011 you save $285 Take note that anyone asking you for some kind of money above the usual fee is definitely a fraudsters and you will have to stop communication with every other person if you have been in contact with any. Also remember that all you will ever have to spend is $135.00 nothing more! Nothing less! And we guarantee the receipt of your fund to be successfully delivered to you within the next 24hrs after the receipt of payment has been confirmed.

Below are few list of tracking numbers you can track from UPS website to confirm people like you who have received their payment successfully.

Name: Donna L. Vargas: UPS Tracking Number: 1Z757F991598420403 (www.ups.com)
Name: Rovenda Elaine Clayton: UPS Tracking Number: 1Z757F991596606592 (www.ups.com)

Note: Everything has been taken care of by the Federal Government of Nigeria, The United Nation and also the FBI and including taxes, custom paper and clearance duty so all you will ever need to pay is $135.


DO NOT SEND MONEY TO ANYONE UNTIL YOU READ THIS: The actual fees for shipping your ATM card is $420 but because UPS have temporarily discontinued the C.O.D which gives you the chance to pay when package is delivered for international shipping We had to sign contract with them for bulk shipping which makes the fees reduce from the actual fee of $420 to $135 nothing more and no hidden fees of any sort!


To effect the release of your fund valued at $850,000.00 you are advised to contact our correspondent in Africa the delivery officer Dr. Phillip Morgan with the information below,

On the site 419 scam eaters, they show many photographs of (presumably) Nigerians holding strange and sometimes obscene signs. They were persuaded to have these pictures taken in order to further the scam being perpetrated. One I saw for instance was photographed with a pineapple on his head, others hold placards with unpleasant things writen on in heavy type. What people here in the West don't realise is that these unfortunate folk are NOT the scammers, they are paid a few pennies to do this by the real scammer, who would never risk his identity to be revealed in a photo. I find it pitiable to see the innocent and uncomprehending expressions on their faces. Some are merely children. They have no idea the person paying them to have their picture taken is a crook. I find it very sad that 'scammer baiters' get pleasure from these 'trophy photos' as they are called. One has only to delete the spam and leave it at that.

Rev patrick Larry has agreed to pay the needed fund valued at $135.00US Dollars required for the Bond Stamp Duty Fee of your Atm Card, but we have not gotten the money from him yet as we want to find out if you are dead or not, so if you are still alive you are advice in your own best interest to reply back immediately.

The only money you will pay to our office is US$135.00 for the paper works, Once we receive your mail we can stop further communication with Rev. Patrick Larry, and deliver the ATM CARD to your door step being the original beneficiary of the said US$700.000.00.

Beside if you fail to comply with the needed US$135.00 required theres no way we can deliver the ATM CARD and we will confirm that Rev. Larry, is saying the truth, if you are Alive kindly comply with us immediately so that we can deliver your ATM CARD to you without any more delay and have Rev Larry reported to the International Police for arrested for attempting Fraud.

I think that this is probably a new twist:

I've been receiving emails from a Mrs Joan Smith (not exactly her name - but I've deleted all the examples). She has been contacting me from her hospital bed (visions of pale, frail old lady, propped up on pillows and stabbing feebly at the keyboard of a wi-fi enabled laptop). She wishes me to get in touch with her solicitor - email address supplied. Presumably, if I did this, I would learn that she is very ill and is near to death's door - and she has decided to include me in her will (yes, me! Of all the people in the world who she could have chosen!). Her "solicitor" would then ask me for my address, phone number and bank account details so that he can make all the necessary arrangements when the sad day inevitably arrives ...

Hey! It might just be true! I think I'll try it. What have I possibly got to lose ... ?

Hello, everyone!

I'm dying of the incurable disease Scamitis nigeriensis, so my multitrillion-dollar fortune doesn't do me much good now. However, since I have given my heart to the Lord, I am filled with this warm, fuzzy feeling that I should share the wealth. I will therefore divide the wealth evenly between the first 1000 people who respond with their full names, Social Security numbers, and all their bank account and credit card numbers (expiration dates and security codes too, please).

Then u can hasz cheezburger! kthxbai!

this manner because of the urgency of my case which require an urgent
attention.

I am Mr.Anker Jorge The only surviving son of Emir of Sudan and The Head of
the Makkure Clan of Southern Sudan.My dad and other members of my family has
just been killed by the rebel Force in order to steal our land and posses the
oil rich land of our Clan.But before my dad die in the traditional healer place
where he was tried to revive,he revealed to me about •7.931m Euro that he hid
in the vault of SECURITY COMPANY in Spain with my name as the next of kin.

I just arrived BENIN REP. to claim the money and I need a foreigner as co-
beneficiary to stand for me as my dad foreign Business partner who will help I
Mr.Ptrick Chai the heir to the deposited boxes to receive it as was stipulated
by my dad in the Bond of Contract that was issue to him by the SECURITY COMPANY
when he deposited the boxes.

The management of the SECURITY COMPANY is not aware of the true content of
the boxes because my dad told them that it is articracfts that is inside.So
nobody apart from you and I should be aware of what is inside the boxes for the
safety of my life and the security of the money inside the boxes.

I am ready to negotiate with you what percentage you will want me to give you
from the •7.931m Euro inside the boxes after we have claim the boxes,I want you
to also start to make arrangement for a house that l will buy and live in your
country when I come.

I will prefer a bungalow of not more than four rooms in a very quiet area
with good security.

I want you to reply me immediately because I do not want to stay long here in
Benin Rep but to claim the boxes immediately and travel out of Africa before my
fathers enemies get a clue of my where about and come after me.

I have mapped out 30% for your assistance and 7% for your expanses.God bless
you for helping me.
