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.

Greetings,
  Please I am very sorry to intrude in your privacy, I have a proposal
for you, however it is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you
to honour against Your will.
         I am Habib Toure I will be very brief but before I will beg to ask
 
you a few questions, do you have the fear of God in you, do you have
human sympathy for the less fortunate victims of disasters like tsunami and
hurricane
Katrina and lately  hurricane Rita that left a lot of people homeless and
dead.
  I am an orphan at the moment and my father was a cocoa farmer and he got
 
killed but before he died, he confided in me that he had one trunk box containing
a
certain amount of money and family valuables for security reasons, I will
not state the amount now deposited witha reliable security firm which has
its headquarters in
Europe, he told me that he did not declare the contents of the trunk box
to the firm.
He gave me vital documents containing important security codes related to
 
the deposit and he told the firm that it belonged to his foreign business
counterpart
who will come at a later date for the claim.
He cautioned me to look for a trustworthy god fearing man or woman who will
stand in as his foreign business partner and assist me secure this funds.
 
He asked me to give back 10% tithe back to the church as instructed in Malachi
3.10.
he asked not to depart from the word of God, he asked me to make sure that
 
I become a pastor which has been my heart desire.
  I am only 20 and this challenge is much on me. I needed
a guardian; however I contacted one American by name Mr Eric Johnson who
 
happens to be a nice person to me.
He has visited the company here in Abidjan, Ivory Coast to see
  things himself and he was happy for all the operations manager told him
concerning
the consignment.
He travelled back to New Orleans on a holiday trip promising to come back
to
Abidjan/ivory coast to pay what the company told him to pay as outstanding
  debt incurred during the storage time and find a safe way to lift the box
without any
hitch. He informed me on 20/12/2005 indicating that he had paid  the security
company outstanding debt of 40 000 us dollars for them to cargo the boxes
  Through diplomatic courier service.
I tried to reach him on 29/12/2005 to let him know that the company
had cashed the money and is ready to shift the consignment in the next
72 hours only to hear the shock of my life that Mr Eric Johnson was
among the people who died on the recent hurricane Katrina disaster, a category
5 storm
which struck a catastrophic blow at the gulf coast driving walls of
water across the city's leaves flooding new Orleans destroying
homes and he was killed ,immediately
I got the news I stopped the security firm from shifting the consignment
  until further notice.
In fact all I want you to do is to write me back urgently immediately
you receive this message indicating your interest to help me out of this
problem.
Fate has not treated me well, I have lost
People that are dear to me, please I am in need of your urgent aid.
May His soul rest in perfect peace amen.
I hope this proposal meets your kind approval.
 
Best regards
 
Habib Touré
