   has sent you this message.
   (email address verified)
   
   Attn: To Whom It May Concern .
   
   This letter is not intended to cause any embarrassment in whatever form, rather it is intended to contact
   
   your esteemed self, following the knowledge of your high repute and trustworthiness.
   
   Firstly, I must solicit your confidentiality. I know that a proposal of this magnitude will make anyone
   
   apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that it is made in good faith and will be of mutual
   
   benefit. I am Barrister Robert Stewart, the personal attorney to deceased,herein after referred to as my
   
   client, a national of Haiti, who until his death in the recent disaster, He was a major crude oil contractor
   
   with the federal government of Nigeria.
   
   My client entire family recently were involved in a fatal motor accident, which unfortunately claimed their
   
   lives, along the Sagamu express road, on there way to the airport, sparing none of the occupants of the
   
   vehicle. I have since then made several enquiries to the Haiti Embassy, in a bid to locate any relation of
   
   my client, and these efforts of mine have not been productive. I'm contacting you to assist me in securing
   
   the money and property left behind by my client before they are declared as unclaimed and unserviceable
   
   by the security company where they have been lodged for safekeeping. I am particularly interested in
   
   securing the funds lodged with Global Security Company in Nigeria , totaling Thirty two, five Million,
   
   United States Dollar (USD32.5M). This is because the said Global Security Company has issued a
   
   notice to me here in t he United Kingdom, unequivocally instructing me to produce the Next of
   
   Kin/Beneficiary to the said account within the next ten official working days, or have the account
   
   confiscated by the FGN, (Federal Government of Nigeria).
   
   Considering my lack of success in my bid to locate his relatives for a while now, I solicit your consent to
   
   enable me produce you as! The Next of Kin to my deceased client, as long as you both bear the same
   
   last name. The funds will then be transferred to you as the beneficiary and shared according to a
   
   proposed sharing pattern /ratio of 70:30 i.e. 70% for me and 30% for you. I will provide all the
   
   necessary legally obtained documents to back up any claim we make regarding this process, and will just
   
   require your understanding and cooperation to enable us achieve success within a legitimate arrangement,
   
   eliminating any liability resulting from any breach of the prevale nt laws.
   
   Your urgent response will be highly appreciated; you can as well forward to me your Telephone number
   
   immediately for more discussion, you could also reach me at: privateauthority@yahoo.com. Thank you.

   I haven't seen one of these in a long time!  I always loved how the so-called Nigerian banker secured my name from the "Nigerian Ministry of Commerce" or something similar.  My high school reunion committee couldn't find me in my own home town, but this guy tells me I'm in a Nigerian business directory?
   
   Ah, the memories...

   Haven't received one of those things for a long time. I think the last one I received was about a Nigerian princess who needed me to "secure her funds." Of course, I decided to look up Nigerian princesses and found no one by the name they told me. Yay for me for knowing to do my research on something before I take a risk!

   You Must Respond and have some fun with this monkey!
   
   Firstly advise him that you are also a lawyer and you practice in London.  You would be happy to meet with him face to face to conclude any such confidential matters as this request.
   
   However, you have noticed that neither the writer nor the mentioned party at Yahoo; appear to be licenced members of the bar in UK or Nigeria.  Is there an explanation for this?
   
   Therefore, as this request does not appear to be bone fide, you are only prepared to continue in the deal, if he varifies his authenticity and provides HIS personal details by fax.
   
   You would be surprised how many of these guys actually provide their personal details when you deal with them this way.

    My spam settings usually grab em/delete em so i don't get the pleasure of reading those emails offering me $14,000,000.00 to simply help a friend, oh, and sending him $3000 to simply process the transaction.

    I haven’t seen a Nigerian scam email for ages, I had started to believe that every rich Nigerian had met some tragic end in a car or airplane accident. Obviously there are still one or two left.
