Of course, I had to learn this from a lad....

Dear Xxxxx,

I got your mail, below, but I have been very busy, hence my late response.

It is good that you have successfully raised the amount needed to finalize your transfer. As you may well know, my tenure as CBN governor expired on the 29th of May (Last Friday) and a successor has been named to my office.

Indeed, he happens to be someone whom I trained in my days as a banker, so we have a good relationship. I have used the whole of this week trying to get him acquainted with this office and the duties required of him.

As regards your matter, I have been left instructions to transfer your funds ($25m) into your trust, upon confirmation of your payment of $75,000. However, It will be most desirable if I could oversee it. I have until next Wednesday to do this, as I will finally hands off then.

It will serve your best interested if you could make the transfer to the account with the details I will provide below and send me ( a scanned copy) of the transfer receipt immediately, so that I can conclude your transfer before I leave finally, on Wednesday.

I hereby assure you that this is the end of the road for you and I guaranty that you will receive your funds by the end of next week.

I further indulge you by giving you my very private number. You cannot under any circumstances give out this number, as it is the number which I am retiring to use, and I will not appreciate any calls on it, as regards my duties as the CBN governor. You can call me on it, till we are done with your transfer. +234 805 480 7553. You can reach me when you get off work today or tomorrow. You CANNOT call me on SUNDAY.

Professor Charles Soludo

I have looked at the Nigerian Press and Google, it is true that his tenure has finished, but who has taken over? No doubt our lads will soon tell us, but you could always ring the Professor on the number above and ask. Obviously not on a Sunday, Wink

+234 805 480 7553.

Roy wasn't supposed to publish this number. So no calling it in the middle of the night (lad time). Or ASEMing it to loads of lads.
Is that clear?

Seems like a real opportunity for his replacement to email and take over - chopping the good Dr's dollar.

I wonder how many lads will send out "Goodday, I am Dr S's replacement and he has instructed me to take over your transaction..." emails in hopes of grabbing someone in an ongoing scam?

It's a lot of people with no script any more ....

I'd ring +234 805 480 7553 to complain bitterly about it ... or get a lad to do it for me!

Rest assured his replacement will find hundreds of files left behind by Chuck, where you seem to be the beneficiary.

I found a good writeup of Chuckie's career in the Daily Sun LINK. It may take a while to load, the Sun seems to be hosted on a Sinclair ZX Spectrum.

Quote:

Until his very last day in office, there was no sign of a decline in the quality of his work, and the missionary zeal that he brought to bear on his vision for the nation’s financial sector.

And his never ending mission to reunite countless funds with their long lost foreign beneficiaries....

Still no word on his sucessor, but at least we have his private number, so ask away, obviously not at 3am, or on a Sunday.

ETA, obviously if the Professor should email you even after his retirement, DON'T confuse him by pointing out he's supposed to be at home gardening, let the less up to date lads make fools of themselves.

Just tried to call him with Evaphone.
He didn't pick up Evil or Very Mad

Mr. Sanusi Lamido Aminu Sanusi is the new governor of CBN.
Its on their website.
CBN
Looks like the passport fakers are going to be busy.

/\/\ I love the Daily Sun 1960's writing style of the CBN site:

He then proceeded to the equally prestigious Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria where he bagged a Bachelor of Science degree

Now who will be the first to recieve an email from Sanusi Sanusi? Have YOU already got one?

He's obviously met RRRRRandy Oldman on notobescammed radio show on a Sunday before. Very Happy

Hopefully the lads will provide some creative ways to disturb his retirement. I always loved twisting the knife in "Old Chuckie".

Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2009 2:00 pm

I wonder why he bothered for ongoing scams? Victims already hooked, aren't likely to hear about the RL retirement. Only new victims would have any reason to research the name.

Can't wait for Sunday to call the professor!

Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2009 6:19 pm

Now I know why gmail has been so slow recently. It's due to the high traffic created by all the lads grabbing up the '[email protected] addresses. Laughing

Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2009 8:15 pm

The end of an era! No more "Uncle Chuck"! Sad

I wonder if the new guy is related to Chief Joseph Sanusi?

Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2009 8:18 pm

So, do we call him Sunny?

Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2009 11:56 pm

This is the man, Lamido Sanusi, who replaced Charles Soludo at CBN:

And it looks as if he is wasting no time at all to get to work and have everybody paid. I received this email from him today (strange thing is the IP does not trace to Nigeria for me):

That email was sent from Google mail. It hides lads' IP addresses just as well as it hides those of baiters. The only IP addresses in there belong to Google.

Chuckie hasn't retired - he's working for Mr G0mer now as chief paymaster and dollar-chopper.
