Hello, I am Miss Young. This story is about someone that
contacted me after loosing money to a scammer. Let me call him Mr. Bond.
He sent me this letter: |

Dear miss Young, I got you're email adress from site http://419.bittenus.com.
I'm a victim of some scamers from Abidjan, Cote d'ivoire. They call
them self Mrs Mand Johnson and Daniel Johnson,"her son", and they asked
my help to claim a box for them, full with $3.5 mill dollars. I act
as they told me, as foreign partner of mr Marcus Johnson, mrs Mand Jonhson's
late huspand. I suspose to get 20%. To be onest i didn't know that all
is fake. I even chat to "Daniel Johnson" on yahoo with web cam. Now
I have to pay only 110 euros to that security agency named "Fexion security
agency" from Abidjan, Cote D'ivoire so they can release the box and
after get it to pay them more 2300 euros, half of "fee". I lost some
money too so far, but not verry much only 300 euros (this because of
my good negociations skills, i suppose to sent them 4600 euros in the
begining) + phone bills and others, lucky me that I wake up on time
and realized that all is fake. Any way, what i'm asking you kindly is
to tell me how can I contact their local police from Abidjan to see
if they can help me in this matter. I look up on internet a lot but
i didn't find any local police from abidjan who's dealing scammers.
I try to contact my local police too but I think i'm wasting time with
them. They are not verry interested about my matter.
So please help me if you can. All i want is to get a email adress or
something from their local police dep., from Abidjan, Cote D'ivoire,
West Africa. I want them BUSTED !
|
|
In my answer I tell Mr.Bond that the chances for getting his money
back are very small, and that I don't have contact information for the
police in Cote D'Ivoire. Maybe the embassy can help.
After a couple of emails, we agree that it could be a good idea to
publish his history in order to warn others.
This is the email that started it all:

Dearest One,
Please, kindly pardon me for any inconvenience this letter may cost
you because I know it may come to you as a surprise as we'have no previous
correspondence.I got your contact as i was searching for helping hand
in your country ,this is why I decided to appeal to you directly for
assistancebecause I'have no elations or friends in your country for
help.
I am Mrs MAND JOHNSON from Liberia.presently,I am residing in Abidjan
economic capital of COTE D'IVOIRE in Weste africa, because of the political
crisis in my Country. I would Honestly want to seek for an immediate
assistance for transaction of $3.5 Million U.S dollars belonging to
my late Husband who was held bondage by the Rebels during the
political crisis in my country and was letter killed.
I ran to COTE D'IVOIRE refugee Camp when I Discovered danger to my
life.This money was deposited in a Private security company here in
Adbijan coted ivoire as a consignment recorded and deposited as family
treasures for security reasons.
I have every Document regards the transaction ,I have contacted the
security company and confirmed the safety of the consignment, As it
is, I have theintention to investing the money oversees and however
needed a Foreigner who is capable of giving adequate assistance to me
by the way of clearing the Consignment from the security company and
thereafter forwarding it to your Account Abroad for investment. I have
nice percentage of the money for you.
If Necessary, Please do feel free to ask me questions on this as I
wait for your reply soonest and However, we don't really know each other,
therefore we need to build a strong relationship of trust first which
is the most important thing between any transaction on earth and with
this i will be very glad to abide with you.
Thank you for reading my letter and kindly let me know if this is ok
for you so that we can discuss the issue, and kindly keep this message
to yourself simply for a security reason.PLEASE YOU CAN EMAIL ME ON

Dearest One,
Thanks for your mail and your Concern to help me secure this project.
I am happy to read the content of your letter because you sound very
Educative I am well convinced that you are the right one to handle this
project for me since I lack the Expirence to make good use of the money.
I hope you will not use this opporturnity to cheat me or to sit ontop
of the money when it gets to your possition. I am a poor widow and I
have suffered a lot and this the only hope I have to start up life again.
The said box of money is being deposited in a Security Company here
In Abidjan Cote D' Ivoire by my late husband and he deposited it as
family treasure and african art works for Export for Security Reasons
and the said Security Company does not know the real content of the
box. All I want you to do for me is for you to contact the Security
Company and tell them you are my late Husbands Foreign Business Partner
who has come to claim the box which was deposited by your Foreign Business
Partner Mr Marcus Johnson my late husband. It is very simple because
I have all the Vital Deposit Documents which the Security Company Issued
to my late husband on the date of the Deposit.
I am willing to proceed with you based on your capability of handling
this project perfectly for and for me to meet with you as soon as you
receive the box from the Security Company.
Most Vital I will like you to send to me your Private Telephone and
Fax Numbers Including Your Current House Address for the safety of this
project. I will like that we fasten up to conclude this project as soon
possible. In your return letter to my mail I will send to you the Contact
of the Security Company for you to go ahead and Contact them.
Awaiting yours Speed Response.
Yours Mrs Mand Johnson.

Dearest One,
My husband is highly respected individual in my country liberia. he
was the fomer director of the liberain Export commission on diamond
and gold before he was killied by on known gun men during the political
crisis in my country liberia.
Like i told you in my previous mail that all you need to do for my
is to stand as his foreign partner so that the security company will
hand over the box of money to you because on the date of the said deposit
my late husband made an agreement with security company, that it is
only his foreign partner that has the full right to claim the box of
money. and when he made this agreement with security company he did
not mention any name of his foreign partner to them. why he did this
is because of his enemise and also for security reasons.

20 % of $3,5m = $700,000 for me. That is a lot of money. Some years
ago I lost most of my savings, so these money will certainly come in
handy. I am still not sure that I can trust her, so I send her 5 questions:
1) What is the name of the "foreign partner"?
2) Can we be sure that the box' content is intact?
3) What if the box disappears during the transport?
4) Is it legitimate?
5) Who else in the family might claim the box?

Dearest Mr Bond,
I have carefuly gone through your mail. it is very sad to me to hear
this horrowful expirence that you have gone through some years now,
i am very sorry my dear. i promise you that immediately you have the
box of money in your possition your life will change and we will start
up joint investment while you will take care of the investment because
serbia is your nationality which make things more easire for us.
Your questions are very Ok ,so that in contact with the security company
you will not make mistakes.
1) Like i told you in my previous email message and if you go through
the deposit certificate and agreement you will see that my late husband
did not mention any name about his foreign partner. he did it like that
because of security reason. before he died he told me that it only the
person that i and my son agreed will take possition of the box. that
was why i contacted you as our prefferrd foreign partner to my late
husband which will make the security comapny welcome you because you
have the vital documents in your possition.
2) i have visited the security company myself and comfirmed that the
box is still in their custody. the security company cannot open it because
it is well sealed and also it is been registerred as family treasure
and african art works for export. no one knows about the real content
of the box apart from you and i and my son daniel. my husband secure
this money for the future of our family but unfortunate he died. may
his soul rest in perfect peace.
3) the money will get to your possition safely because the security
company will take care of it through their diplomatic shipment and it
will be only deliverd to you that is why they are demanding for your
address. the director told me this last time i visited them about this
transaction. so feel free to contact them. no one is watching this transaction
because everthing about this transaction is well arranged by my late
husband.
from the content of the deposit information,the box is only one. and
it is a metalic box. you are now standing as my late husband foreign
partner and you are now the rightfull one to claim the box. no one is
tracing the box repeated.
4) this a legal transaction as far as i am concerned. i am here to
protect this transaction and to make sure that you receive the box in
your possition with out any delay or problems.
5)daniel is my only son and he is 21 years old he was born on 3rd march
1984
your are correct about your caculation of your share in assistance.US$700.00
again it only you and i and my son knows about the whole truth about
this transaction. no one else knows about it. that is why i am saying
i wiil not like you to cheat us when the box gets to your possition.
i have not contacted any body on the internet eccept you. i have beleived
in you because it took me time to really contact you . when you first
wrote me i was trying to study you that was why i did not give you all
the information that is in your possition now. i believed that you are
The God sent one to help me.
daniel called you last time from our church telehopne line where our
church members use to call their loved ones or family relatives. you
can only call me when i want you to call me. but i will not advice you
to call me their for security reason here in africa peolpe are very
jealuos. that is why i contacted you and for you to maintain the secret
of this project. please do not tell even your friend till you have the
money in your possition.
please use your real name in contacting the security company. you can
write them through email. but it will be good that you call them.
MR BOND, i have giving you all the guide line of this project. any
thing that you did not understand well you sholud call me immediately.
remember that the security company does no the real content of the box.
tell them that you want the box to bedeliver to you in your country
that you are the late foreign partner to mr marcus johnson my husband
who was the depositor.
PLEASE LOOK FOR A SAFER PLACE WHERE YOU CAN RECEIVE THE BOX. REMEMBER
THAT WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IS US$3.5 MILLION DOLLARS. this our hope
and our life. plaese don't make any mistakes. try and send your picture

i have given you my words that there is notting to worry about. this
transaction 100% risk free if you follow my directives notting will

tell the security company that you want them to deliver the box to
you. as you communicatiing with them you are acting as my late husbands
foreign partner who the box is for. it is your directives that they
will follow because your are the real owner of the box.
you have to receive the box where ever you fill is very secured for
you. it is their job to deliver the box where ever you want. you not
need to worry you, you act as i am directing you.
for example if some one bring a watch for you to repair and after repairing

box as i am writing to you now, because you have all the information
with which proves you as the real owner. go ahead and tell the security

Dear mr bond,
thanks for you telephone call and your effort my dear, i have told
you that you have to feel free because everything about this project
is ok.
my late husband told me all about the box. my late husband cannot mis
lead me.for your information my late husband was the fomer director
of liberian gold and diamond export commission before his untimely death.
please i want you to know that you are the hope i have now. please
make sure that you tell the security company on how you want them to
deliver the box to you. you said that they want euros 4.365 for them
to deliver the box to you.
how do we do it now? I do not have any money with me and right now
the only money i have at hand now is 400 euros and it is our feeding
money. i am under confusion what will be the next thing to do, as i
am writing you this mail i sheding tears please do not do this to me.
since my son heard about the suituation of things he has been crying.
and all his hope is to me with you that what he always tells me.
we cannot becuase of euros 4.365 lose this project and you no if we
delay the security company might want to open the box and if they find
out what is in the box they will steal the money and we will lose. how
can you tell them that you want your box to be deliverd to you and you
do not have money? does this make sence? you have contacted them and
they are now with your information as the real owner of the box then
why are saying that you do not have money to claim your own box that
is with them.
i am counting on you now try and find what you will do to settle them.
even if it means that you will borrow from some one and pay with a percentage
that will be good. but do not disclose the project to the person. you
said that you are capable to take care this project it what you promised
me, why then now you cannot settle the security company for them to
deliver the box to you and you have not sent to me all the mail that
the security company sent you so that i will read them and put in records.
what do we do. please i don't want you tell the security company that
you cannot cliam the box because they beleive that as my late husband
foreighn partner that you are capable to handle everything. i am very
confused.
call me i will stand by to speak with you.

Dear mr bond,
all the mails you sent to the security and the ones they sent you i
have read them all. i visited the security company this morning and
discussed with director he told me all about your communication. i pleaded
to him to help us that you will pay them when the box is in your possition.
but he told me that he is working under the rules of their agency. but
i do let him know my condition and after i explained all he was touched
and told me that he can only help us by you paying half of the fee and
you drafting a promissary not with your signature and a copy of your
ID attached on it to their agency promising them that you will pay the
remaining money when you receive the box in your possition.
i told you that i have 4 hundred euro but after i spoke with yesterday
i went our church to see if i can get any help, which the pastor did
help me with littile he has. he gave 100 euro making it 5 hundred euro
and i have given it to the security company and promise them that you
will complete it as soon as i get intouch with you.
from my understanding the security company said that we should pay
for the federal governement stamp duty seal fee and from the content
of their mail they said the federal governemnt stamp duty seal fee it
is legal that we obatain it so that no one from the international monitoring
orgnisaition will look into the box ontill it gets to you. i think this
the best way we want this so that they safer guard the box ontill you
have it in your possition.
i do not know what to do now because i have nobody to borrow money
from and i do not want to tell any body about this project i am still
maintaining the secert of this transaction. i did not know that this
will come up i thought that you will have the box in your possition
before you pay them.
but you see yourself that the security company is working the rules
of the organisation.
now you said that you do not have money how can we conclude this transaction.
i have told all the truth of this transaction and i so much beleive
in you but i did not expect all that you are saying from. you know our
condition here in the refugee camp we do not have any one to help us
all our hope is in this transaction. my late husband told me evrything
about this transaction he cannot mis lead me. if not because of his
death i don't that i will facing all this problem. here in abidjan cote
d' ivoire the peolpe here have their kind of life. this is a french
country and i do not know how to speak french even if i know to speak
a littile i will not like to tell any body about this project.
why have chosen to leave i and my son in this condition, my son is
telling me that is like you want to betray us because since yesterday
i have been crying even uptill now that i am writing you. i don't want
beleive my son saying because it will make me died with heart break.
please mr bond you are my only hope please try and know you will do,
i swear with life and the life of my about the genuity of this project.
what you are about to do for us is some thing that God will never allow
any problem to come to you because helping a poor widow like me and
my son is very good act of humanity. please i want to go closer to God
and ask him to direct you in what ever you are about to do inregards

She certainly has come down on her knees, with a lot of crying, and
a threat to have a heart attack! Is this for real, or is it all bluff?
Anyway, the cost has now come down from 4,365 EURO to 1,682.50 EURO.

Dear Mr Bond,
i have understand you and i must tell you this because i have so much
trust in you. i still want you to maintain the sceret of this project
i will not like you to, disclose this project to anyone that will bring
problem to us. you mentioned your uncle NO. i went to the security company
as you said but they did not give me any attention. the director said
i am not the right person to be coming for this matter. the you are
the one because everyting is being written down that you are the owner.also
he said you are supose to be here in person, than telling me to coming
to their office.
i do want to involved any other person that is why i ask you if you
are capable to handle this project and you said yes. now look at what
we are facing, you know quite well what i am passing through with my
son here, i have spent the last money i have here to see that you receive
the box,rightnow we do not have any money with us even to feed now will
be a problem to us. you would have told me that you cannot handle this
project than to make things very difficult to me. you said that you
will write to the security company and tell them that your problem.
honestly i do not like that , how do want the security company to take
you. they know my late husband and they know his class of person and
they are taking you to be the same class of person, the money they are
demanding from us is very little to be holding us back.
now i am very confused about all that you are doing. i wouldn't like
this projcet to bring problem with you and your uncle. and i repeat
this to you once more that you shold not let any one know about this
project, i am telling you this for the safety of this project. i am
doing this with you and you only. you should know that notting good
comes easy you have to show me that you are rael capable to handle this
project. you know that if the box gets to your hand we will not have
problems in life because it enough for us to start up some good investment
in your country. bringing some in now will break our effort so far.
tell any one you want to meet that you will pay him back the money as
soon as you receive the money in your hands you will pay. but remember
that you do not need to tell the person what you are doing with the
money.
i am having cold which not good for me it is because of my thinking
,my son is not happy with the way you are handling this project.
call me so that i will know how far you have gone.
yours mrs mand johnson.

their was no time for me because i have to move fast to come back today.
i came back with first flight which arrived here in abidjan 4.30am this
morning.
the joruney was successful but not too successful enough. as i got
to cameroon after my disscussion with our church sister as she promised
me, she told me that 3 of daugthers came from school and they came to
collect their school fees which made her to change her mind in given
me the exact amount which she promised. she told me that because of
the her children school fees that she can only give me 1400euros i pleaded
to her to complete it 1600euros but she refused. notting else i could
do than to collect the money from her because a begger has no choice
so i deceided to collect the one that it is with her. which is the 1400euros
as, i writing you now i am with the money in my hands. but we need to
complete it because the amount we supose to give to the security company
in 1,632euors.
please all i want you to do now is to send to me 200euros so that i
will go to the security and give the money on your behalf. i am very
happy that we can conclude this project now and i am very eager to meet

Dearest Mr Bond,
you do not need to misunderstand me because as you over there you are

to happen to you. now we are not talking about trust because we have
build up our trust, so please do not allow the spirit negetivity control
you. we are about to see the light of our new day in future.
we need to work as a team with every possitive steps to ensure that
you receive the box safely. telling me to send the money across to you
is not possitive, sending money from here involves taxes. if i send
the money to you i will pay for the transfer tax and when you receive
it, you will now send it to the security company by paying another tax,
check it youself if it is the proper way.
all your effort is not going to be in vain because i am here to monitor
every arrangement of the security company as i am given the money because
as soon as they receive the requested fee the box will get your possition
before friday evening that is what i find out from the security company.
we should be celebrating that all is working according to our plans
and efforts.
please try and understand and send the money to me i am waiting so
that i will go to the security company to pay them today.
