I am highly compelled upon strict recommendation from Buba, to write you this very urgent and confidential letter.I do hope my letter will not embarrass you since I had no previous correspondence with you. I am sending this proposal with due sense of umanity,responsibility and with few awareness that you will give it a sympathetic attention. I regret the inconvenience it may cause you x-udd on the condition that we have not met before. I am Mrs. Munirat Fatima 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 l ife quite unbearable for us. Fortunately, Mohammed my Husband has Eighteen million and six hundred thousand United States Dollars(US$18.6 million) cash, which he intended to use for investment purposes overseas. This money is kept in a private security company. 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 leaving a clause that it could only be claimed by an expertriate partner. 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. The freighting company to be used has now been introduced to me and as so on 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 consignment 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. Please send reply to my most private email.fatima2ng2004@yahoo.com

Attn:Eltaf

Sir,
Many thanks for your kind response to this project. I am Barrister Buba Ali Ahmed A. Esq. and above is my chambers contacts. I have been handling series of project for Hajia Fatima Abacha and family. I hope we will finalize this project in no due time.

I can assure you that you do not stand any risk whatsoever working with us, as the government has no knowledge of this fund and we have already set in motion the machinery for the speedy and hitch free conclusion of this project. The funds are solely that of my clients and all legal documents that will bear your name will show them.

The steps for realizing the project are as follows:
First Security Discount Towers,a cargo-freighting agency has been approached to handle the airlifting of the consignment out of Nigeria to either of their affiliate agencies in North America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Caribbean's, Middle East, Asia, South Asia, Latin America, Africa, Australia and South Pacific for your pick up. Note that it will be the responsibility of the protocol officer of Security affiliate agency in any of the countries that you have chosen for the delivery to assist you in setting up an account in your name in any of the prime banks in that country for the initial deposit of this fund. All you need to do is to get the country of your chose given to us for us to get the security company informed on time.

It is from this account you will open in that country of your choice as listed that you will further transfer the funds to any other account of your choice. 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, I will 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 Security Company 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.

Alternatively,the consignment could be delivered to you directly to your address by the Security Company's Diplomat.But this has to be on an agreeable terms with the Security Company before that is done.Then the processes for completing with this method made known to you and we go ahead to still sign the contractual agreement of air-lifting with the Security Company which you will endorse yourself and have the taxes paid to the Security Company as an Upfront while sending back the endorsed contract agreement.

Again we can arrange with the Security Company for a bank to bank transfer if possible and the alternatives suitable for you.The minimum activation feeswill be then sent to activate your online account.Then the Principal amount will be credited in that your online accountYou will be given PIN CODE to access the account and then transfer to any other of your accounts worldwide.

After securing a certificate of deposit, and the signing of a contractual agreement with Transatlantic Deposit Security Company, it will take us about 2 working days to arrange the airlifting of the consignment.All the Documentations,the airway bill of the consignments to either the affiliate paying bank or any of the Diplomatic countries will be taken care of by Fatima.

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 the diplomatic unit, because this consignment has to be freighted as a diplomatic cargo then 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.

I have instructed by my client to make sure that all calls comes through me to the family Esq. You can as well reach me through +234 803 7197 938. Please feel very free to call me for more briefing. The sharing pattern of this project will be duly addressed in the family trust agreement that I will be sending you herein this full version of the project. Please before I go into all legal registrations and documentations you will be traveling with, kindly get back to me with details of the followings:
1. Your full names.
2. Your phone and fax numbers
3. Home and office address/Occupation
4. Your international passport scanned copy and numbers
5. You most private email addresses.

It is important that you should indicate in your reply where you would want the consignment to be airlifted to Senegal,Thailand,Holland,London,Indonesia,South Africa,Malaysia,Dubai or Brussels, as this will be included in the agreement with Security company. Please also indicate your most confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. In reception of these information from you, I will forward you the family trust agreement for you to sign and return back to my chambers before I proceed with all other legal formalities.

Thanks.

Dear Brother,
I have completed all arrangements today with the Security/Freighting company.They informed us that since we have completed all requirements,they wil issue out formally a letter of Introduction to the Affiliate payment Office in Netherlands.

I was told that they will be contacting you originally today,so that as soon as they receive the registrations from you and a processing fee of $1790,they will have the application processed and then freighting carried out with instructions to their affiliate to remit the funds to your account.

Please my brother,as soon as you are contacted,do not fail to let me know and again,co-operate with them.

I know paying the little amount will not be a delay to your person since we need this project to be completed on time for subsequent investment plans with you.

I will be attaching some documents signed later to you.My internet is very slow because it rained today heavily here.

I wish us all good luch and may Allah assist us,Ameen Suma Ameen.

My very dear brother,
After all these waitings you are giving me this instruction. What does it mean i have to pay that amount of money. to whom i have to pay and why do i have to pay. you have trusted me and they have trusted you. when we all trust eachother why there should be the matter of trust and these things. you tell them to process the fund to the banking account i give them and be advised that i have only $1200 in my account and thats it. and i will never give my banking info to anybody.

My Dear Brother,

It was indeed good to hear from you.We are happy that everything is going on well as planned and hopefully this weekend,we will be talking about how to have the funds invested.

I know it maybe difficult at the moment to have the payments completed as requested by the Security Company.I have heard that you only have $1200 in your account.I am out for anything because I do nor need the delay of this project again.

I have met with Hajia Fatima and I have to pay the amount of $1,000 to them by tomorrow as requested so that your application will be processed.Just go ahead to pay the remaining of $750 tomorrow immediately to them.This is necesary because they said you need a transfer code from them and this code will be given to the payment office in Netherlands.So go ahead to pay the 750$ to them first thing tomorrow morning and inform me that you have made the payment.

Please know the stringent urgency this requires and do so without delays.I will wait for you fr the updates.

Since Eltaf did not pay, Buba gave up. Eltaf closed his email account, that he had opened especially for this scambaiting session.

Eltaf earns about $150 a month. The $700 he payed the scammers earlier, was borrowed from a friend. Now he does not know how he will be able to pay back his friend.
