    Post your emails from Nigeria here

    Skiing is not a cheap sport, and from what I understand reading some other threads, most ski town jobs don't provide an adequate wage to allow one to pursue their dreams of skiing all day and renting affordable housing. Occasionally I'll get emails like this from altruistic folks who may need to dispose of their accumulated wealth due to health or other issues. I'll post them here if anyone wishes to take these folks up on their generosity.



    Greetings,

    Please accept my unreserved apologies If this message invade your
    privacy, it wasn't my intention to do so but I have no other choice
    after I have learnt what is ahead of me which is inevitable. I have
    been diagnosed with dangerous disease called ESOPHAGEAL cancer for so
    long and my doctor has recently confirmed that I have only few weeks
    to live because the virus has eaten deeply into my body system it
    takes grace of God to survive this horrible situation.

    I am contacting you because I want to will/donate the sum of 5.2
    Million USD and 200-KGS of Gold Bar to you for the work of God and
    orphanage home in your locality, please use 70% of these money for the
    children and work of God, 30% for yourself. If you do agree with me,
    please reply back with your full information as such.

    (1) Your address
    (2) Your telephone Number
    (3) Your ID card or passport

    I need this information so I can ask a lawyer to prepare authorization
    of claim to your name as advised by the legal department of the bank,
    and also to introduce you as my foreign Beneficiary/trustee and
    further instruct the Bank to transfer the money to any of your
    designated Bank account based on the authorization of claim or
    affidavit as the law of the country demands.

    Contact my private email at; isabelle.patel@yahoo.com

    Thank you so much
    Mrs. Isabelle Patel

    This recent email mentions those that lost money in interactions Africa. Reads like the jig is up for a lot of these scammers!

    --

    --
    Attention please,
    This is to bring to your kind attention that the World Bank in
    affiliation with the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has
    sanctioned the Government of concerned countries to compensate the
    scam victims, including those that lost money on unsuccessful
    contracts and transactions in Africa. Each of the victims will be
    compensated with the sum of $2.5 Million dollars, to ensure that
    justice is served. This is necessitated by numerous reports of scams
    perpetuated from some African countries. There have been reports that
    the victims have lost billions of dollars to the scammers.


    However, your details were obtained from one of the scammers who were
    recently arrested by the joint security operatives comprising
    INTERPOL, FBI and local security. The culprit confessed that there are
    other partners in crime, and the security agents are tracking them for
    possible arrest. Therefore, you are hereby advised to keep this
    information confidential until all the scammers are apprehended.


    Contact the payment manager now for your compensation payment. Note,
    your payment reference number is: CP005698BFA. Quote or better use
    your payment reference number as subject when contacting the payment manager.


    Payment manager: Mr. Johnbosco Lapa O.
    Email: alphn22448@gmail.com
    Tel: +2266572579


    Yours faithfully,

    You could take the $5.5M or the contents of the golden metal mystery box.

    There could be anything in the box, even $5.5M.

    Dear Friend,
    How are you today? Hope all is well with you and your family? I hope
    this mail finds you in excellent health. But if you do not remember me,
    you have received an email from me in the past regarding a
    multi-million-dollar business proposal which we never concluded. I am
    using this opportunity to inform you that this multi-million-dollar
    business has been concluded with another Merchant who financed it to a
    logical conclusion. I thank you for your great effort towards our
    unfinished transaction, due to one reason or the other best known to you
    at that time. Due to the effort, sincerity, and trustworthiness you
    showed during the course of the transaction, I want to compensate you
    and show my gratitude to you with the sum of Seven hundred and fifty
    thousand United States dollars. I have left an international certified
    bank draft for you, worth USD$750,000.00 cashable anywhere in the world.
    My dear friend, please contact Rev. Yao Higginbottom, Of Catholic
    Parish, Adidogome,Lome-Togo, so he will release the draft to you. At the
    moment, I'm very busy and would like you to accept this token with good
    faith as this is from the bottom of my heart. Below is her contact
    information.

    NAME: Reverend. Yao Higginbottom, Of Catholic Parish,
    Adidogome,Lome-Togo.
    TEL: +228(96)6507-23.
    EMAIL CONTACT: rev.yaohagginbottom1@gmail.com

    Therefore, you should contact her and ask her to release the draft to
    you because I have instructed her to do so.
    Best Regards,
    Mr. Charles Renata

    I wonder if this thread will attract those ambitious, but less-funded, Nigerian scam artists?

    Kind of a legalzoom.com for those looking for a good starting point for their emails to riches.
