Hello, I am Miss Young. I received the following email. It is a socalled
"Advance Fee Fraud" letter, where I am promised millions for
my assistance. These stories are all lies, and if I respond, sooner
or later I will be asked to pay a fee. If I pay, another fee will quickly
come up, and it will continue that way until I give up or run out of
money. I will never see the millions, because they never existed.
If you received a similar email, you should go to the homepage to read more about 419 fraud.
I hope in the name of ALLAH that I have the right person who will assist me.
I got your contact through a web directory.
I want to transfer my family's money into your country/ business for
investment purposes and to secure the future of my 3 children because we are
uncertain of the future of this country; as such I would like to make
contact with you residing in that country for assistance.
Note these funds are already in a security company which has branches around
the world for safe keeping.
I would have done this myself but my present health condition will not
warrant me to do so. Kindly help with this because I cannot travel out of
libya at the moment due to some certain conditions and great difficulties
added to the fact that am disabled on a wheel chair due to a bombing that
occurred in Benghazi I will explain more to you when I am certain that I can
trust you.
The fall of Muammar Gaddafi came with a lot of destruction / Hell to our
great country Libya and everything is practically difficult now and
opportunities are closing up, the new government is trying to frustrate our
life.
Please if you accept this offer of assistance you are required to give me
your Name, age, occupation, address also enclosing your telephone fax
numbers.
What I now need from you are as follows:
1. You will help me receive and secure the funds from the security company
on my family's behalf and open a Bank account for my children in your
country with the credentials i will give you.
2. You will be entitled to 30% of the total sum involved for your
assistance.
3. As soon as you confirm to me by e-mail your readiness to assist with
this, I will give you more details as regards� claiming the funds from the
security company.
4. Please note that this project is 100% risk free but you must keep it very
secret and confidential with strong assurance that you will not let me down
at all.
Regards,
Mohamad Hassan al-Rida
