I recieved these emails clear out of the blue from some chick claiming to be wife to "Mohammed Abacha" who i guess is some kind of bad guy.
I thought it was a prank at first, so I replied to the first email, simply asking how they got my email address. To my suprise, I got a reply.
here is is....
STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
My Dear Jesse Wiseman,
I am Mrs. Munirat Abacha, the wife of Mohammed Abacha,
son of the Late head of state of Federal Republic of
Nigeria - General Sani Abacha.I am contacting you in
view of the fact that we will be of great assistance
to each other like wise developing a cordial
relationship.
My husband along with his late father and top
officials of their past administration has been
accused of looting several Billion United States
Dollars from the Nigeria Government. The current
attitude of the present government towards my family
has indeed made life quite unbearable for us.
Fortunately, Mohammed my Husband has six million and
eight hundred thousand United States Dollars(US$6.8
million) cash, which he intended to use for investment
purposes overseas.
This money was deposited for safe keeping in the
security vault of a freighting agency here by my
husband preparotry to being air lifted abroad for
investment purposes before his arrest. It is only my
husband and myself that know where the money is kept.
Due to the current situation in the country concerning
government’s vendettas towards my family, we seek your
assistance to transfer this money out of Nigeria for
the purpose of investment as intended by my husband.
Note that my family is currently being probed by this
present government for alleged involvement in
misappropriation of public funds during my
father-in-law's regime.Towards this effect, an embargo
restricting my family members from traveling or
carrying out financial transactions without their
express permission is in force. Right now, my husband
(Mohammed) is under arrest and is being detained in
connection to the above and other activities of his
late father.
However, I have an arrangement on how to freight this
money to you after receiving some assurances from you
of the safety our own share and that you will only
take the commission that we will offer you.
This money personally belongs to my husband and he
intends that it still be used for investment. No
record ever existed concerning this money, neither is
the money traceable by the government because there is
no documentation concerning the funds in the Federal
Treasury.
The freighting company to be used has now been
introduced to me and as soon as we recieve your
readiness to assist us recieve this fund we shall
formalize the deposit documents in your name and reach
an agreement with them to air lift the xconsignment
for your pick up.
Bearing in mind that your assistance is needed to
transfer this fund, we propose a commission of
15%(Fifteen Percent) of the total sum to you for the
expected services and assistance. While 5% is mapped
out for miscellaneous expenses.
On your positive consent, I shall expect you to
contact me urgently to enable us discuss about
this.Your urgent response is highly needed. I must use
this opportunity to implore you to exercise utmost
indulgence to keep this matter extraordinarily
confidential, while I await your prompt response.
Best regards,
MRS. MUNIRAT ABACHA
The next email is after I asked how she got my email address.
My Dear Jesse Wiseman ,
Many thanks for your kind and prompt response to my
e-mail. I got your contact through my country 's white
page directory, and after fasting and prayers I
decided to seek your confidence in this very important
transaction, trusting on your goodwill not to take
advantage of the trust i am reposing in you although i
have not met you personally before .
Note that this fund legally belongs to the family and
was acquired by my husband through contracts awarded
him by the government during the gulf war boom sales
of Nigeria crude oil when his late father was in
power, we are only employing this mode of transfer
because of the personal vendetta that the present
civilian government is meting out on the family due to
his incarceration by my late father in-law for
involvement in making a coup to topple his government.
I can assure you that you do not stand any risk
whatsoever by working with us, as the government has
no
knowledge of this particular fund and we have already
set in motion the machinery for the speedy and hitch
free conclusion of this project.
The steps for realizing the project are as follows:
Club 2000 Africa (a cargo-freighting agency) has been
approached to handle the airlifting of the consignment
out of Nigeria to either of their affiliate agencies
in Canada ,South Africa ,Thailand or Brussels for your
pick up. This company is vast in the air lifting of
valuables and cash for past African leaders and Top
military officers out of their country for safe
keeping abroad.
The consignment would have to be claimed by you on our
behalf, from the Affiliate Company on arrival as we
would not want the government to know that the fund
belongs to the family. To make it possible for you to
claim the consignment, my lawyer has to process a
certificate of deposit for this consignment and have
it re-issued in your name, this confers on you the
status of full beneficiary to the fund. This will be
documented and copies sent to you. We then go ahead a
draft an air lifting contract agreement with club 2000
Africa to guide the handling of the consignment to the
affiliate agency in the country that you have chosen
,and to introduce you to the agency as the recipient
and final beneficiary of the consignment.
After securing a certificate of deposit, and the
signing of a contractual agreement with Club 2000
Africa, it will take us about 4 working days to
arrange the airlifting of the consignment. After
which, a PASSWORD or collection CODE QUESTION and
ANSWER will be sent to you for effecting the
collection of the consignment.
Immediately the consignment gets to the Affiliate
Company they will, after clearing it from customs,
notify you to arrive for collection.
I must let you know that as far as this project
arrangement is concerned, there is absolutely no risk
involved, as the agency is vast in the business of
freighting valuables and money for top African
leaders.
As I may be closely watched by the government and my
phone may be bugged , I must confess my inability in
having a direct telephone conversation with you. I
have because of this, asked my brother in-law Alh.Buba
Abacha, to take care of any telephone communication
with you on my behalf. His telephone number is 234 1
470 28 98. You should therefore feel very free to call
him for more briefing.
It is important that you should indicate in your reply
where you would want the consignment to be airlifted
to, Canada,Thailand, South Africa or Brussels, as this
will be included in the agreement with club 2000.you
should also indicate your most confidential telephone
and fax numbers for easy communication.
Look forward to your prompt reply.
Truly yours,
Munirat.
Do you think this is for real or just a stupid prank???
