believe you will be of great assistance to me.i am MISS SANDRA WILLIAMS
25years of age,the only daughter of late MR DEVID WILLIAMS,my father
was a very wealthy cocoa merchant based in abidjan, the economic
capital of cote d'ivoire.
before he was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of
their outing to discause on a business.when my mother died on the
21st october 1984,my father took me so special because i am
motherless,before the death of my father on 29th november 2004 in a private
hospital here in abidjan.he secretly called me on his bedside and told me
that he has the sum of (us$11.500.000)eleven million five hundred
thousand united staes dollars in a metalick trunk box.
left in a security company here in abidjan,he let me know that the
security company did not know the content of the box because he
registered it as a family valueble personal for security reasons,that he
used my name as his only daughter for the nest of kin in deposit of the
fund.he also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that
he was poisoned by his business assocoates.
that i should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice
where i will transfer this money for investment purpose and to further
my education.sir i contacted you to assist me and claim out this box
of money which my late father deposited in the security company and
transfer it to your countrry.so that i can come over your country
immediately for investment.
however,sir i have accepted to offer you 15% of the total sum for any
expenses which might have incurred during the process of transferring
and also as a compensation for your effort/input after the succesfull
transfer of this money to your country overseas.

Sometimes I wish I had the electronic equivalent of a smart bomb that I could send back to these folks and make their computers implode in their laps.

Now THAT would be funny. :wink: :D

Cheers.

Just the other day on a talk radio show some caller said he provided a similar type person their bank account number and now their account was sucked dry. The person who called in wanted to know what legal action they could take. The talk show host said your screwed! I can't believe anyone would fall for this.
No quarter given!

My guess, and only a guess, would be they are 'ignorant' to what happens on the internet, elderly, or very young. :-?
