Posted by Mutteo - May 4th, 2009


Dearest,
My dear I am writing this mail with tears and sadness and pains. I know it will come to you as a suprise since we haven't known or come across each other before, but kindly bear with me at this moment. I have a special reason why I decided to contact you. My situation at hand is miserable but I trust in God and hope you will be of my help. My name is Hanan Ibrahim Bare 25years old girl and I held from Republic of Niger the daughter of Late General Ibrahim Bare Ma?nassara the former President of the Republic of Niger who was ambushed and killed by dissident soldiers at the military airport in the capital, Niamey with his driver and a former Prefect. You can see more detail about my late father here http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dat es/stories/april/9/newsid_2463000/2463 927.stm
I am constrained to contact you because of the maltreatment which I am receiving from my step mother. She planned to take away all my late father's treasury and properties from me since the unexpected death of my beloved Father. Meanwhile I wanted to travel to Europe, but she hide away my international passport and other valuable documents. Luckily she did not discover where I kept my father's File which contained important documents. I am presently staying in the Mission camp in Burkina Faso.

I am seeking for longterm relationship and investment assistance. My father of blessed memory deposited the sum of US$11.7 Million in one bank in Burkina Faso with my name as the next of kin. I had contacted the Bank to clear the deposit but the Branch Manager told me that being a refugee, my status according to the local law does not authorize me to carry out the operation. However, he advised me to provide a trustee who will stand on my behalf. I had wanted to inform my stepmother about this deposit but I am affraid that she will not offer me anything after the release of the money. Therefore, I decide to seek for your help in transferring the money into your bank account while I will relocate to your country and settle down with you. I have my fathers death certificate and the account number which I will give you as soon as you indicated your interest to help me.

It is my intention to compensate you with 20% of the total money for your assitance and the balance shall be my investment in any profitable venture which you will recommend to me as have no any idea about foreign investment. Please all communications should be through this email address only for confidential purposes.

Thanking you alot in anticipation of your quick response. I will send you my photos in my next email.
Yours Sincerely
Hanan Ibrahim Bare

Wow... I don't know how people fall for crap like this.

"I MUST GIVE HER ALL MY MONEY!!!!!"

It is very outrageous, I know. Thankfully I'm not that naive enough to fall for this gimmick. I also got the cliche' "You won 9 million pounds from the English lottery!"

I'm not that desperate for money.

I'm not in England so I don't know how bad it is, but I did get an E-Mail saying I won a Russian bride... HOW DO YOU WIN A RUSSIAN BRIDE!?

I heard you can purchase brides overseas, but I'm not sure if that is actually legal, since the only reference I have to this is Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

You can, but not underage or illegal immigrants, they have to go through security like everyone else. I see ads all the time because I live in a port state. There is even companies that are basically prostitutes but since they call it "escorting" nobody can do anything until they catch them red-handed(no pun intended).

Haha! That reminds me of this site called www.Ashley Madison.com, which is basically a site for cheating on your spouse. They actually encourage this, for people married who want a little action on the side. It is truly disgraceful. This company is in it for the money, but they are manipulating people into being disloyal to their lovers.

What? Republic of N****r? Is this some kind of a prank?
Seriously, i got one of these mails, in a so-so french version, about a dead man leaving a huge amount of cash in a bank. And the guy writing to me wanted my account so he could transfer the cash? So I simply responded something like this:
"So, in the way i see this, YOU killed a man to claim his huge amount of drug cash or slave-trading business or whatever, and now you want ME to help you cleaning the dirty money. Well mister, i ain't no Cosa Nostra influent member, and having no trouble with interpol for the last years, i want it to stay that way."
The response was confusing.
"I see you have an interest in that money i need your account and...blah blah blah"
So, i gave my last response...
"Sir...I have only one important question...Do you dream of electric sheep?"
(and for the russian bride it is true a friend of mine tried it and he got something really vulgar and funny looking)

Lmao, wow I give you props for responding back. Sad thing is, I feel bad for the pretend girl who sent me this letter. I have sympathy for an imaginary person. I am truly sad.

Of course I never want to handle money matters with anybody, not even my friends. As low as my funds are and as sad as my career is, I'd rather stick to the dump I have rather than try to fall for a scam like this.

Interesting, this must from a big company. (Dunno much but whoa)
