Dear Miss Young,

Sorry for my delay in responding to you, I have been in the hospital taking care of my mother. I have discussed with my header brother and he said he has contacted you, please confirm this. I will like to know if you have contacted the security company and also when you intend going for the consignment of funds. Miss Young please try and make haste because my mother's to be flown abroad for immediate medical attention.

I await your prompt and urgent response.

Regards,
Onome.

 

I am back after the week-end, with 4 unanswered emails and a voicemail. Samuel has got a new mobile number. I choose to answer Samuel:

Hello again Samuel,

I hope you and your family are alright. How is your mother?

I am back home again after a long journey, where I missed my flight in Chicago. When I finally was home in Seattle I learned that my old friend Scott McKinney had just died of a heart failure. He was only 46! I have to go to his funeral in Aberdeen on Friday.

I can see that you have tried to contact me, so I will try to call you on your phone 2348055900580 today.

In my last email I asked for some kind of proof of your identity, a copy of your passport, drivers license or similar. Have you sent that?

My near term plans is a trip to Sct Petersburg if I can get a Visa in time.

Hope to talk to you soon, ...

Dear Miss Young,

Thank you, I received your emails, I will call you to discuss in details, but I need to know when you can travel to Amsterdam to conclude everything, we have to ensure that you can secure the funds as soon as possible. I will call you tomorrow. I also believe it may be best for us to meet face to face so that we are both sure of our identities, I will appreciate your presence.

God bless,
Samuel.

 

I am out of town for a funeral, and been off-line for 4 days. Now I contact "Equity Trust", give them my address, and tease them a little:

... I have attached my picture.

I can see from your very nice web-site that you have an office here in USA.
Please inform me of their address and telephonenumber.

Regards, ...

 

Once again, I try to get a picture from Samuel:

Hello Samuel,

I am back in town after a tiring funeral. I received your email.

Regarding your idea of meeting face to face, - I think that is a brilliant idea. I am looking forward to meet you in person. Will you sister also come?

I need to be able to recognize you when we meet, so please send me your picture. Dont be shy. I have attached another picture of my self.

You also ask when I can come to Amsterdam. Well, that depends on when I get my VISA for Sct.Petersburg. I will let you know as soon as I get it.

If possible, I would like to combine the two cities. It is a long and tiring trip to go to Europe.

With love, ...

Attn: Miss Young,

Sequel to your mail dated the 29th of september 2004, this is to officially notify and inform you that your consignment has been approved for release.

Please, attached to this mail are the requirements you will have to make available with you in Amsterdam.

Thanks for your patronage, while we wish you a pleasant trip.

This is going to be expensive. In the letter from Equity Trust, I am asked to bring "The sum of EUR 13,875 representing handling/demurrage and custom charges." to Amsterdam.

After the week-end, I tell Samuel about my ordeal in Sct. Petersburg:

Hello Samuel,

Sorry for the late answer, but I have just been through the worst week-end in my life. As you know, I was going to Sct. Petersburg, and everything went according to plan until I landed there. I had been chatting with a nice fellow on the plane, and had promised to carry one of his bags through the customs because he was handicappet and we were going to the same hotel. That was a BIG mistake, because I was stopped in the customs, and it turned out that his bag contained drugs. And the man, whose name I didn't have, was nowhere to find. To make a long story short, I was arrested, and was first released when I managed to get in touch with the American Embassy this morning.

I will go on to Amsterdam and plan for a meeting with Equity Trust on the 6th. If you cant join me, I will have to do it on my own. As soon as the consignment is in my possession, I will send you the $3700 you asked for, so that you can join me in Amsterdam. A returnticket Lagos-Amsterdam is about 2200 EUR, so the $3700 should be more than enough.

I know that I have asked you before, but please send me your picture, so that I can recognize you when we meet in Amsterdam.

Equity Trust has asked me to bring "Power of Attorney" and "shipment air-way bill". Do you know what that means??

Bye for now, ...

 

And a short note to "Equity Trust":

Dear Joseph/Karol

This is just to confirm that I have received your "Approved Release", and that I plan to meet you on the 6th.

I will bring the required items, and pay you the 13.000 EUR as soon as I have verified that the content of the consignment is undamaged and ok.

Regards, ...

Attn: Miss Young.

Sequel to mail dated the 3rd of October 2004, we wish to notify you that it is imperative you send and furnish us with your traveling arrangement. This will enable us dispatch a protocol officer to meet with you and bring you to our office.

Best Regards,

Its time to set up the meeting with Equity Trust:

I will arrive in Amsterdam from Paris by flightnumber 8224 from AirFrance at 11:00 AM.

I suggest that we meet on the corner of xxx and yyy at 02:00 PM. That should give my enough time to get into town and get to the bank before our meeting.

Will you send me a picture of your protocol officer, so that I can recognize him? I think that I have sent you my picture earlier.

Tot seens, ...

Dear Miss Young,

I got your email, sorry for your troubles, thank God your have been released, I have the shipment airway bill with me, but I nee you to email me your address as shown on your international passport so I can ask our lawyer to procure a power of attorney for you from the federal high court here in Nigeria, pls respond ASAP.

God bless,
Samuel.

 

Next day, a short answer to Samuel:

You asked for the address on my passport. It just says: "Seattle, USA". I hope that is sufficient.

Will you send me the shipment airway bill?

Thanks, ...

Subject: Very Urgent!!! pls respond ASAP.

Dear Miss Young, I have the airway bill with me but the power of attorney is going to cost me approx. US$850 to get from the high court, this is the delay, please I need your assistance, you know I do not have money now or I will not be asking you, please let me know when you can send this amount ASAP.

God bless,
Samuel.

 

I had expected that a new fee should appear in the last minute. Anyway it is time to stop this story, so on the day of the planned meeting, I write to Samuel:

Dear Samuel,

I just arrived to Amsterdam today for my appointment with "Equity Trust", but had to realize that they cannot be trusted. They didnt show up !! I was raving mad.

Regarding the $850 I have to tell you that after what happened in Sct.Petersburg, I dont have that much money at hand. You will have to get it yourself. Just to quote something you told me earlier: "...remember that you are at the receiving end while I at the giving end."

When you have fixed this, then a can arrange a new meeting with "Equity Trust(?)".

Regards, ...


The meeting place

And a goodbye to "Equity Trust":

Hello Karol and Joseph,

WILL YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE H... IS GOING ON !!!

I have now travelled to Amsterdam to meet you, and you dont show up!

I asked you to send me a picture of your protocol officer, but you didnt!

How should I be able to recognize him/her?

Please come up with a good explanation, or our deal is off!

Regards, ...

 

I never heard from them again.

Miss Onome Obi has been quite active. A search on the Internet for "Onome Obi" show several identical introduction letters within the last month.
