This lad seems a tad ambitious. He has 450Kg of gold that belongs to me apparently and all he is looking for is $209254 in tax and delivery charges. I am guessing he is new to this game.

Quote:

Dear Caron,

I received your mail, and well noted. Sir I want you to check the break down of the 450kg of Gold, the break down was given to me by the courier company, and the told me that any goods that is living this country, that the sender or the benefically must pay0.5% of the worth of the Goods.

Break Down Below.
CONVERSION:

450 KG = 14,467.8 TROY OZ.
AVERAGE MARKET VALUE; 22CARROT PURITY $750 X 14467.8
$10,850,850.00 US DOLLARS

993 LBS.
MY SUGGESTION....
SHIPMENT NEEDS TO BE IN WEIGHTS OF LESS THAN 100 LBS

Note that the tax for every Goods living this country is 0.5% of the Worth of the Goods that you are sending. Therefore they have made their own calculation and find our that the worth of the Goods, which is the 450kg of Gold that am about to send to you is $10,850,850.00 US DOLLARS, which means 0.5% of it is $54,254 usd as the tax.

The delivery charges is $155,000 and it will be paid at there branch office in your country, you will have to let me know what i have to do, or we can make arrangement with the courier company if they can be sending it bit by bit to less the tax fee.

Please call me for more information, +233248434679

I wait to hear from you.

Them's pricey carrots.
You need a fully detailed invoice so you can claim back the import tax when you receive the delivery.

I say you go for it and send him the necessary $200,000. Of course it will have to be in 21 payments of less than $10,000 each so you can use the SHORT forms (all 21 times with 21 different photographs holding passphrases) instead of the LONG anti-terrorist form. After sending the money via MTCNS3CURE or other secure means, I am sure the gold will be delivered in dump trucks to your front lawn.

This lad is keen alright. He wants me to transfer the $200,000 to the security company.

I for one admire his candor... I mean he could dress it up and start off with a $500 delivery... then bribes... fees etc... but no he is upfront and open. With honesty like that are we sure it is even a scam..? I suggest we bait and find out!

I must admit I thought he would change his mind and go for Western Onion but no he wants me to send the fees in 50K chunks to a bank account. I off to my bank right away.

What a lazy mugu! He wants to get his entire career's pay in one lump sum, and send it directly into his bank account. He won't even get up off his seat in the cafe, and walk to WU. Now, i've heard everything!
That's ok, it will make it easier for us to close his bank accounts.
