Dear Friend (Pathetic Nigerian letter to get money)

[WillParkinson]

Dear Friend

I am Mrs. Sarah Welsh, an English woman who is suffering from cancerous
Ailment. I am married to Sir Jim Welsh who also is an Englishman though
Dead now.

My husband worked with the Nigeria Railways for over two decade before the
cold hand of death took him away on the 23rd of July 2003 at about 2:00AM.
Our marriage lasted for over a decade without any fruit of the Womb. My
husband died after a protracted illness.

My husband and I made a vow to uplift the down-trodden and the
Less-privileged individuals within the United Kingdom, Europe, North and
South America, Africa and the rest of the globe as he had passion for
persons who cannot help themselves due to physical disability or financial
Predicament. I can adduce this to the fact that he needed a Child from
this relationship, which never came. When my late husband was alive he
deposited the sum of 10 Million (Ten Million Dollars with a Bank in
Nigeria.

Presently, this money is still with the Bank. Recently, my Doctor told me
that I have a limited or numbered days on earth and that my life Span will
not exceed 150days due to the cancerous problems I am suffering from.

Though what bothers me most is the stroke that I have in addition to the
cancer. With this hard reality that has befallen my family, and me I have
decided to donate this fund to a on-governmental, or a non Religious, and
or a non profit organization or better still an
Individual, that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct
here in. This gift, which comes from, my husbands sweat to fund the upkeep
of widows, Widowers, orphans, destitute, the downtrodden, physically
challenged Children, barren-women and persons who prove to be genuinely
handicapped financially. It is often said that blessed is the hand that
giveth.I took this decision because I do not have any child that will
inherit this money and my husband relatives are bourgeois and very wealthy
persons And I do not want my husband Jim Welsh hard earned money to be
misused or invested into ill perceived ventures. I do not want a situation
Where this money will be used in an ungodly manner, hence the reason for
taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I
am going.


I know that I am going to be with the Almighty when I eventually pass on.
The Almighty will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I do not need
any telephone communication in this regard due to my deteriorating Health
and because of the presence of my husband relatives around me. I do not
want them to know about this development.
With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I Shall
give you the contact of the bank in Nigeria for the claim of the fund. I
will also issue you a Letter of Authority that will empower you as the
original beneficiary of this fund. My happiness is that I lived a life
worthy of Emulation. Please always be prayerful all through your life.

Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a
Non-governmental, or a non religious, and or a non profit organization
on Or better still an individual for this same purpose. Send your reply to
my personal email: [e-mail]

Please assure me that you will act just as I have stated herein.

Hope to hear from you soon and God bless you and members of your family.

Mrs. Sarah Welsh. (Benefactor)

1. Volume

These scams are about volume, much like the business of telemarketing. The more people the scammer contacts, the higher the chances that one of those people will take the bait.

Just today I got one the came from a spoofed IRS email address. I knew it was bogus but hovering my cursor over the "official IRS form" link confirmed it. Off to the spam filter it goes!

7. I get about one a month. Usually from 'ex-government' officials. But it

varies. They're good for a laugh. Especially when they come out and ask for my bank account information.

9. Ah yes, that cold hand of death.

I got almost that same exact one recently, only the woman's name was different.

Pretty imaginative stuff, for a bunch of guys sitting around old PC's in a hot room somewhere in Lagos. Too bad they can't get a REAL job and become productive members of society. They could actually do some good, with brains and energy like that...
