I need your assistant of transferring $22 million usd to a foreign account as our foreign investor or our foreign partner. Your share is 30%, and me and my colleagues will have 70%. We sold Gold dust, HMS-1&2, USED RAILS, RS-50/60 HARD METAL, COPPER SCRAPS and crudes oil, we did over invoice. Due our Election that was executed, our government are in disarray, We therefore wish to move out this money through you. This money is in Standard Chartered BANK Ghana, has been moved down to financial house to be airlifting to oversea.
Write me;
Regards,
Francois Ayila.


Scam or bust? I think we ALL know the answer.

Hey it says its from Ghana, not Nigeria.

I think you should give the Ghanans? Ghanians? (people from Ghana) the benefit of the doubt. You should help Mr. Ayila.

I think a better scam would be for someone to pay the money and then actually get $22 million dollars...

That is, $22 million Zimbabwe...

Just give me your VISA card number, DOB and SS# and I'll see if I can get to the bottom of it for you!

Or better yet, go along with the scam but pay them in Zimbabwe Dollars.

:D

One episode of This American Life was focused on a story about an internet group that made a sport of jerking around scam artists like the ones from Nigeria. Listening to the story was pretty hilarious.

It might take a while, they do things slower over there. I'm still waiting for a stranded nigerian prince to send me money for helping with fare.

No big deal, I've done that myself on myspace. Lead one on for months, wasted tons of their time on IM.

I tried to do the same via email, but they immediately asked for a phone number, needless to say, I wasn't very comfortable with that.

*sigh*, how come you get all the cool scammers?:tongue:
