Examples of the "Nigerian scam" that flood my email box everyday.

Wednesday, May 26, 2004

It would appear the both God, and the Ivoirean chamber of commerce and industry, have recommended me to Mr Ibuh.

It seems that he received a list of "reputable" persons such as myself, from the Ivoirean chamber of commerce and industry, he then prayed over them for a bit; and God said "pick Ken, he's your man".

His father, oddly enough, was not involved with diamonds or gold but cocoa. This also seems to be a business fraught with danger, for the old man was poisoned.

Leaving his son with $7M, which he wants me to put in a bank account for him.

He claims that the entire matter could be concluded within 7 days. Yes, that would be about the length of time that they would need for them to fleece my bank account.

It is a con! You have been warned.

Abidjan, Ivory Coast West Africa
