DEAR FRIEND,
FIRST, I MUST APOLOGISE TO YOU FOR USING THIS MEDIUM TO COMMUNICATE ABOUT THIS TRANSACTION, THOUGH THIS MEDIUM (INTERNET) HAS BEEN GREATLY ABUSED, BUT I CHOOSE TO REACH YOU THROUGH IT BECAUSE I FEEL QUITE SAFE DEALING WITH YOU IN THIS IMPORTANT
BUSINESS. HOWEVER, THIS CORRESPONDENCE IS UNOFFICIAL AND PRIVATE, AND IT SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH. AT FIRST I WILL LIKE TO
ASSURE YOU THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS 100% RISK TO BOTH PARTIES.
I AM MR. RICHARDS THIAM, THE DIRECTOR OF BILL AND EXCHANGE AT THE FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT IN THE BANK WHERE I WORK.
PERMIT ME TO INFORM YOU OF MY DESIRE OF GOING INTO BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU. MY COLLEAGUE AND I HAVE DECIDED TO
CONTACT YOU ON A BUSINESS TRANSACTION THAT WILL BE VERY BENEFICIAL TO BOTH OF US AT THE END. I GOT YOUR CONTACT FROM THE
INTERNATIONAL WEB SITE DIRECTORY DUE TO IT'S ESTEEMING NATURE AND THE RECOMMENDATIONS GIVEN TO ME AS A REPUTABLE AND TRUST
WORTHY PERSON I CAN DO BUSINESS WITH AND BY THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS I MUST NOT HESITATE TO CONFIDE IN YOU FOR THIS SIMPLE AND SINCERE BUSINESS.
IN MY DEPARTMENT WE DISCOVERED AN ABANDONED SUM OF $13.7M USD (THIRTEEN MILLION, SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS), IN AN
ACCOUNT THAT BELONGS TO ONE OF OUR FOREIGN CUSTOMERS, AN AMERICAN BY NAME: MR. JOHN SCHELPERT WHO DIED ALONG WITH HIS WIFE AND OTHER PASSENGERS IN EGYPT AIR FLIGHT 990 -OCTOBER 31, 1999. SINCE WE GOT INFORMATION ABOUT HIS UNTIMELY DEATH, THE FUND
HAS BEEN DORMANT IN HIS ACCOUNT WITH MY BANK WITHOUT ANY CLAIM, WE HAVE BEEN EXPECTING HIS NEXT OF KIN TO COME OVER AND CLAIM
HIS MONEY BECAUSE WE CANNOT RELEASE IT UNLESS SOMEBODY APPLIES FOR IT AS NEXT OF KIN OR RELATION TO THE DECEASED AND THE
PERSON MUST BE A FOREIGNER AS INDICATED IN OUR BANKING GUIDELINES.
BEFORE OUR OBSERVATION IN THIS DEVELOPMENT, WE DISCOVERED THAT THE OWNER OF THE ACCOUNT DIED WITHOUT AN HEIR/WILL HENCE THE
MONEY IS FLOATING AND IF I DO NOT REMIT THIS MONEY OUT URGENTLY IT WILL BE FORFEITED FOR NOTHING. THE BANKING LAW AND
GUIDELINE HERE STIPULATES THAT IF SUCH MONEY REMAINED UNCLAIMED AFTER SEVEN YEARS (7 YEARS), THE MONEY WILL BE TRANSFERRED
INTO THE BANK TREASURY ACCOUNT AS UNCLAIMED FUND. IT IS THEREFORE UPON THIS DISCOVERY THAT I AND MY JUNIOR COLLEAGUE IN THE
BANK NOW DECIDED TO MAKE THIS BUSINESS PROPOSAL TO YOU AND RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU AS THE NEXT OF KIN OR RELATION TO THE
DECEASED FOR SAFETY AND SUBSEQUENT INVESTMENT PROJECT SINCE NOBODY IS COMING FOR IT AND WE DO NOT WANT THIS MONEY TO GO INTO
THE BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED BILL.
MEANWHILE THE WHOLE ARRANGEMENT TO PUT CLAIM OVER THIS FUND AS THE BONAFIDE NEXT OF KIN TO THE DECEASED AND TRANSFER THIS
MONEY TO A FOREIGN ACCOUNT HAS BEEN PUT IN PLACE. DIRECTIVES AND NEEDED INFORMATION WILL BE RELAYED TO YOU AS SOON AS YOU
INDICATE YOUR INTEREST AND WILLINGNESS TO ASSIST US AND ALSO BENEFIT FROM THIS GREAT BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY. BECAUSE OF OUR
POSITION IN THIS COUNTRY, OPERATING A LOCAL ACCOUNT WOULD EVENTUALLY RAISE AN EYE BROW ON MY SIDE DURING THE TIME OF TRANSFER BECAUSE I WORK IN THIS BANK. THIS IS THE ACTUAL REASON WHY IT WILL REQUIRE FOREIGNER AS SECOND PARTY THAT WILL FORWARD CLAIMS AS THE NEXT OF KIN TO THE BANK AND ALSO PRESENT A DESIGNATED SAFE FOREIGN ACCOUNT WHERE HE WILL NEED THE MONEY TO BE TRANSFERRED INTO AFTER DUE VERIFICATION AND CLARIFICATION BY THE BANK. MAY I AT THIS POINT EMPHASIZE THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS
A SUCCESSFUL ARRANGEMENT, AND AS AN INSIDER OF THE BANK I HAVE THE CAPACITY TO MONITOR THAT EVERYTHING IS SMOOTHLY PERFECTED.
ON SMOOTH CONCLUSION OF THIS TRANSACTION, YOU WILL BE ENTITLED TO YOUR OWN SHARE OF THE TOTAL SUM AS GRATIFICATION. WE HAVE
AGREED THAT 20 % OF THIS MONEY WILL BE FOR YOU AS OUR FOREIGN PARTNER, IN RESPECT TO THE PROVISION OF A FOREIGN ACCOUNT, 5% WILL BE SET ASIDE FOR EXPENSES INCURRED DURING THE BUSINESS AND 75% WOULD BE FOR ME AND MY COLLEAGUE. THERE AFTER I AND MY
COLLEAGUE WILL VISIT YOUR COUNTRY FOR DISBURSEMENT AND FURTHER INVESTMENT PLANS.
YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO KEEP THIS INFORMATION A TOP SECRET AS WE ARE STILL WORKING IN THE BANK AND INTEND TO RETIRE FROM
SERVICE AFTER WE CONCLUDE THIS DEAL WITH YOU. I WILL BE MONITORING THE WHOLE SITUATION HERE IN THIS BANK UNTIL YOU CONFIRM
THE MONEY IN YOUR ACCOUNT AND ASK US TO COME DOWN TO YOUR COUNTRY FOR SUBSEQUENT SHARING OF THE FUND ACCORDING TO PERCENTAGES WE AGREE UPON. ALL OTHER NECESSARY INFORMATION WILL BE SENT TO YOU ON YOUR ACCEPTANCE TO CHAMPION THIS TRANSACTION WITH US.
I SUGGEST YOU GET BACK TO ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE THROUGH MY DIRECT TELEPHONE NUMBER 00221 4829179 OR EMAIL STATING YOUR WISH INTHIS DEAL.
THANKS AND BEST REGARDS.
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
MR. RICHARDS THIAM

Princip podvodných dopisů - SCAM 419
Podvodná skupina rozešle obdobné podvodné dopisy na milióny adres. Pisatel(ka) se většinou vydává za Nigerijského občana, ale nebývá žádnou výjimkou i jiná země.
Cílové adresy jsou posbírané z mnoha různých zdrojů po celém světe. Podvodné gangy mohou využít vlastní nástroje pro sběr adres nebo některou databázi koupit.
Pak už stačí jen čekat, až se někdo na podobný e-mail nachytá. Přestože se to zdá neuvěřitelné, počet naivních lidí, které zláká snadná vidina bohatství, bývá několik procent. Mezi nimi jsou i lidé s vyšším vzděláním, doktoři a právníci.
Jakmile oběť odpoví, podvodníci s vyžádají potřebné informace, aby mohli transakci uskutečnit. Pokud je dotyčná osoba nedůvěřivá, mají podvodníci pro ni připraveny falešné dokumenty, certifíkáty, zfalšovaná potvrzení třetích stran, údajně zapojených do obchodu a nechybí ani připravené internetové stránky falešných bank nebo fiktivních přepravních společností, na nichž si nedůvěřivá oběť může "ověřit" podstrčené informace.
Plánovaný převod peněz se z nějakého fiktivního důvodu nepovede a podvodníci začnou tahat z oběti peníze na nečekané výdaje - různé poplatky a úplatky. Případně jsou požadovány různé doklady a informace. Vše trvá tak dlouho, dokud je postižený ochotný platit.
V některých případech se stalo, že zločinci žádali oběť o návštěvu Nigérie nebo jiné země k dokončení transakce. Zde pak dojde k setkání falešnými nebo se zkorumpovanými úředníky. Postupně se začnou se objevovat další problémy a pro jejich vyřízení je potřeba uhradit další poplatky. Pokud se oběť snaží z obchodu vycouvat, bývá různě vydírána. V některých případech byla dokonce i zavražděna.
Na podvodné dopisy nedoporučuje reagovat, protože se tím potvrdí funkčnost adresy a na ni pak mohou být zasílány další podvodné nabídky, falešné loterie a podobně.
Rozhodně se vyvarujte zasílání různých soukromých údajů, čísla pasu nebo dokonce jeho fotokopií, protože i tyto údaje pak mohou být snadno zneužity k jiné trestné činnosti.

Buďte opatrní!
Internet je obrovským zdrojem svobodných informací, ale tato svoboda zároveň dává mnoha podvodným živlům velký prostor pro vyvíjení různých podvodných aktivit.
