The President
Mr. Donald Kaberuka,
Dear Mr. President,
Thank you for sending me the e-mail. In which country
and at which address are you located? In the site you
sent me I saw your photograph. I congratulate you for
the lovely medal. You have been doing a lot of good to
your countries. I am very much impressed. I am glad
that a Christian person like you is involved in
helping out the nations of Africa.
Now going to my problems:
You have informed me that you ahve been authorized to
do all the transaction on my behalf.
You also say the following: "This Is to bring to your
notice that my office has taking over all the money
Transaction originated from any part of African and
Europe countries as Contract payment, Fund Inheritance
due to Unauthorized/incapability of financial
Institutions/security companies in releasing such huge
sum of money due to Fraud, terrorist and money laundry
activities going on world wide, The World Bank Group
and Central Bank Of Nigeria (C.B.N) has Mandated the
African Development bank via my ....
I have a question here: ") Now you need the TAC
payment of 1350.00 Euro. After sending this payment,
would I have to pay another 4800 or something liek
that to get th Anti-Drug Certificate?
Ido not have even 1350 with me at the moment. I am
completely bankrupt and my bankers are holding ma
neck. Ver soon I shall be sent a Bailiff or a legal
procecutor to empty my appartment and auction all that
I have to pay my installment for theloans I had taken.
I wonder if you can understnad that.
Is there anyway to help me out in this? I have
absolutely no money at my disposal. If you have any
friend who could help me out I will be very very
grateful to you. I will re-imburse the amount to the
person no sooner I get the draft.
2) Don't you need the costly Anti-drug certificate if
I send you the money?
3)You talk about a banker's draft. Is it like a cheque
which I have to present at my bank and give them the
ode number in order to cash it after you send it to me
here? You said in 24 hours. Will this draft be sent to
me with something like Fed-Ex express courrier?
4) Are you sure there won't be any more money on my
part that I have to pay further? - than this 1350
Euro?
Dear Mr. President. I know that you are a busy man,
but I do not understand some of your banker's
language, so would you kindly please explain this to
me?
Professor Soludo told me that at first I had to pay
2500 to the transaction, then suddenly after I had
paid him that amount he said they needed a
Anti-Drug-Certificate which would cost me 4800 Euro.
this sum I was not able to pay as I have a loan by two
banks over 22,000 Euro and whave to pay back. ALl
these payments and much more involved in this whole
trnasaction since the last so many months, i have
become totally bankrupt. Is there a chance to help me
please?
I shall never forget your kindness if you could find
someone who could help me assuring him/her that I
would pay him back (and you too in a very generous
way). I am an honest Christian and will not cheat the
person. Please try to see if you can do that.
Would you kindly give me at least 4 weeks to see if I
can collect the money somehow? But I shall be glad if
you could find someone who could help as it will go
through faster. Then you can visit me here with your
family.
Please write me by tomorrow. I have no computer of my
own at home and so I had to come to the office today
(being sunday) to see my e-mails as Professor Soludo
of Nigerian Central Bank called me yesterday at home.
Thanking and wishing you a wonderful Sunday
Sincerely, And the Lord's blessing to you and your
family.
Aleksander

In november 2006 I was contacted by the real African Development Bank. They asked me to add the following note: |

AFDB warning against Advance Fee Fraud (419) Scams
Various scam and advance fee fraud emails purporting or implying to be from or associated with the African Development Bank (AFDB) are circulating on the Internet. Some of these emails request detailed information and/or money from individuals, businesses or non-profit organizations with the promise that they will receive funds or other benefits in return. These are advance fee fraud criminal activities. Other emails ask for registration fees for conferences allegedly sponsored by AFDB and for hotel reservations, again with the promise of certain benefits. These emails sometimes carry the AFDB logo, and originate from or refer to an email address which is made to look like the AFDB or affiliated regional office email address. Many of these emails also refer to the senior leadership of the AFDB and include a reference to the AFDB web site. These are FRAUDULENT emails.
These emails do not emanate from AFDB, and are not in any way associated with AFDB projects or events. The AFDB wishes to warn the public of these misleading practices, and suggests that recipients of invitations such as those described above (whether sent by email or communicated in any other way) verify their authenticity before sending any response. Do not communicate with anyone soliciting in the name of the AFDB, as the AFDB is not a commercial bank. In particular, AFDB suggests that recipients do not send money or personal information in response to invitations from anyone from the AFDB who claims to be awarding funds, grants, scholarships, certificates, lottery winnings, or prizes, and/or AFDB requested payment for registration fees and hotel room reservations, or other advance fee fraud scams in the name of AFDB. The AFDB is a Major Development Bank that does not solicit from private individuals or conduct commercial banking activity.
The AFDB is not a commercial bank, if you have any doubts about the authenticity of an email, letter or phone call purportedly from, for or on behalf of the AFDB, then you should stop all correspondence immediately. The AFDB is actively trying to put a halt to these misleading practices, and we continuously pursue criminal activity with the assistance of multiple international security organizations in order to protect the AFDB. We greatly appreciate your help in bringing suspect communications to our attention.
