Do these people never give up?

ATTENTION: Dear Friend Roy,

I am Dr.Akuvi Simon Director Of Audit Unit, Developement Bank Benin.This is a very confidential proposition for you. On November 21st 2003, a Brazilian Oilconsultant/contractor with the Benenoise Solid Minerals Corporation,

Mr.Mauricio Jose De Matos made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$8,000,000.00 (Eight Million Dollars only) in my branch.Upon maturity on November 20th 2004 as his Credit Officer, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.

After a month, we sent a reminder and finally i discovered from his contract employers, the Benenoise Solid Minerals Corporation that Mr.Mauricio Jose De Matos died in an Air Crash. Further investigations,and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.

Again,I made further investigation and discovered that the deceased did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank This sum of US$8,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank No one will ever come forward to claim it.According to the International Banking ethics,codes and Laws, at the expiration of 2(Two) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Benin Government if nobody applies to claim the fund.

Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to the deceased. This is simple, I will like you to respond immediately with your full names and address so that we will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will put you in place as the next of kin.

A bank account in any part of the world that you will provide will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin.The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 70% for me and some of my colleagues who are aware of this transaction and 25% for you and 5% for Expenses Incurred in the course of the transaction.

There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by my colleagues and with my position as the Director Of Audit guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easycommunication.

You should observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.Awaiting your urgent reply.
Thanks and regards.
Dr.Akuvi Simon.
pls u can get back to me with this email box simonakuvi4u@yahoo.com

What an opportunity!
I don't mean to for you to take them up on it - more along the lines of 'string them along' for a bit - we could have forum members chipping in with ideas for them!

www.419eater.com is a good site as well.

Take a look at some of the pictures and scambaits that they do there. They are funny - especially the pictures (as most of these scammers do not have a very good understanding of English English and its slang, if you get me).
