just wanted to say hey, and thank (and damn all of you to hell) for my new found obsession. Done alot of reading on this site before I joined, and now Im going to attempt my first. Just thought Id share what I have so far

after the first normal 419 letter regarding an oil company fortune, I reply with this

Quote:

Mr. Aliuyu

I must say, this email finds me at seemingly appropriate time. First of all, my name is Mr. Pink Floyd. I work as a Vice President of a marketing company "Dark Side Of The Moon". We have 4 brances located in the US alone, and one in Southeast Asia. We are working on going nationwide, with the launch of our website, hopefully to be coming soon. Our stock has nearly doubled this last quarter, rocketing our net worth to just a tad under 857.3 US million. My father was the original owner of Dark Side Of The Moon, until 3 years ago when he tragically died of AIDS that he aquired working in Bejing at the local "Grande Latte Enema". Ever since that day, I have been going in a downward spiral. I began drinking heavily, and even more damaging (especially to my business) I have picked up a nasty gambling problem. I have been seceretly taking company funds from the treasury and spending them lavishly on casio trips, and internet gambling pools. Im afraid my addiction has gotten the best of me, because according to my calculations, I have lost almost 70 million dollars in company money. Luckily enough for me, Im in charge of current employees, and was succesfully able to fire our accountant who seemed to be catching on to substantial depleeting of funds. We have a new temporary head of accounting, but very soon a permanent replacement must be found. Once this happens, Im afraid that Im going to be caught, and not only terminated from my job, but sued for loss funds and damages to the company by the head of trustees.

I have current saved up roughly 34 million dollars through personal stock options, wages, and the selling of personal property to recoup some of the withdrawls I have made, but Im simply too short, and don't know how to make up for the rest. I am very interested to hear more of your proposal, because I fear that I have no other choice. Let me know if theres any more information that you have regarding this matter, and please try to be as secure as possible. Im afraid of being caught already, and my plan would be ruined if someone from a third party got ahold of this information.

Godspeed,
Pink Floyd
CEO and Vice President of Dark Side Of The Moon

get a bite and am responded to with this

My Dear Brother Pink Floyd,

I am most grateful for your mail, and I seize this opportunity to
thank you for coming to my rescue and to also let you know that this
transaction is a straight forward and legal transaction. I am
somebody with a conscience. If this transaction was in any way
illegal, I would tell you straight away so that you know what is
involved and decide for yourself. But it is not like that at all, and
you will later see and understand that.
I hope you were not too embarrassed by my first email to you since
you do not know me. I had no option since I have no friends or family
outside Dubai. I didn�t know how to move the funds out and
dispatched it to charity organizations, so I resulted to putting fate
to test and making a random contact. I got your email address from
the web email directory and decided to introduce I plight and this
transaction. I am communicating with only you at this moment with
regards to this transaction. And I would not have any cause to do
otherwise, except you state your intention to withdraw your
assistance.
Just like I stated in my first mail to you, this fund is presently in
a private security and holding firm in The Netherlands. I cannot
claim these funds myself as a result of,
(1)I have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer caring for my health.
It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now I have only about
a few weeks to live, according to medical experts
(2) I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so, I have
decided to give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be
one of the last good deeds I do on earth It is for this reasons I am
looking for a third party who would stand as the beneficiary to the
fund and retrieve it on my behalf and dispatched it to charity
organizations.
All the necessary documents required to get the Funds out of the
security firm are in my possession and I will be sending them to you
after we must have come to a conclusion and reached an agreement. Not
before.I need you to give me your words that you will be very honest
and
straight forward with me when the money gets to you. So long as you
can execute this transaction successfully and help me dispatched it
to charity organizations.Thus, I would need you to get back to me on
the following issues,
(1) That you are in a position to be trusted as a God fearing person
with such a large amount of fund and dispatched it to charity
organization.
(2) That you are willing to contact the security company to discuss
the terms of releasing the funds and bear whatever expenses (if there
is any and you will remove any money spend immediately you get the
funds) that would be involved so that the funds can be released and
the money transfer.
(3) That you fully understand this transaction up to this stage and
you are ready to proceed under these terms.
As soon as I receive your reply that you are ready to proceed under
these terms, then I will furnish you with all details including the
security company's details for the secure of the release of my fund
and disposure to the charities. But if you have any questions up to
this stage, please ask and I will be more than happy to respond to
them.
Please send me your confidential full names, telephone,and fax
numbers including your country code and address first.And I will also
send you the security company contact telephone number and email
address in the Netherlands to enable you conclude this transaction as
my life is too short.
Thanks for your mail, your mail has relieved me and I pray to
almighty GOD with is infinite mercy to reward you. I believe when God
gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a
different way from how I have lived it now. I want you to pray for me
so that God would forgive me and be merciful to me and accept my
soul.
Thanks
Regards,

my reply

Mr. Aliuyu

Im very interested in this "transaction" but a few things
worry me. You speak of doing "charitable" and godly work.
If we are going to be business parteners, you need to understand,
that I DO NOT intend to use this for charitable reasons. Im STRICTLY
using this for reasons mentioned before. I need this cash
desperatly, or else I fear I will be out of a job, and or be sued by
heads of my estate. If you would still like to do business with me,
then by all means, let me know. But if you're looking for a
charitable donation, then Im afriad youre talking with the wrong
person

Godspeed,

you contact them for the terms of the release of the funds to you

I guess Ill ask for a "trophy"

Mr. Aliuyu

Your last email, caught me a little off guard. I sense a little hostility. Im sorry if my repeated questions annoy you, but I must be sure about a few things before I go into this business endever. Things are getting close and the head of trustees Led Zeppelin, is really starting to breathe down my neck in finding a replacement for our former head of acounting Jethrol Tull. I have to find a solution to this problem, and I need to find a solution FAST! As soon as you and I get some things squared away, we will be good to go, and I will send you ALL of my personal information. First all, NOT THAT I DONT TRUST YOU, but I'm going to need some hard evidence that I am speaking to who you claim to be. Just to be on the safe side. I would hate to find out that this is one of the board members, who is sniffing a little too close, setting me up, so they can have me fired. I have all my account info ready, including the new account number to use for this transaction. Im also in the process of setting up a new phone number to ensure our privacy in future calls.

Now, for the evidence, Im going to need something from you. Just to ensure that I am speaking to you Mr. Aliyu, and not one of the board members, I am going to ask for a picture of yourself. Now, just to make sure AGAIN, that this pic is valid (just in case one of the board members, just finds a random photograph online) I am going to ask you to hold up a sign with a personalized message, one that cannot be faked or duplicated, so I KNOW that things are safe, and we can continue on with this transaction. I am so excited about this opportunity, that I already have $25,000 set aside to be given to you as a "reward" for helping me out. I will even send this before the transaction happens, just to show you I am for real. So, all I need from you before we start this business transaction is a picture of you holding a sign, I would like you to write on the sign

"I LOVE PINKS TACO
MWSNS"

I LOVE mexican food, and taco's are my favorite. The MWSNS is our company's softball team. These two things are easy enough, yet they will ensure our safety in this matter. Please respond ASAP, because I need to have this transaction completed to keep my job safe and secure!

Godspeed,
Pink Floyd
CEO and Vice President of Dark Side Of The Moon

he replies w/ pics...but not the ones I asked for

Quote:

My Dear Brother Pink Floyd,
I thank you very much for your mail.Well I most tell you I am a

plans concerning this our transaction.You get back to me with those
information lets go ahead.
I also include my recent picture in this mail.
I await your favourable reply.
Thanks
All the best

lets ask again

Quote:

Mr. Aliuyu

Wow, I hope you're ok. I hope I didn't offend you. Its not that I
dont trust you, its just that I have to be 110% sure that you aren't
one of the board members. I GREATLY appreciate your emails, and
thanks for the pics! I DO belive that they are you (and if they are,
I hope you get to feeling better soon), but Im afraid before I give
you all my information, I am going to need a pic with the sign saying
"I LOVE PINKS TACO
MWSNS"
Its not that I don't trust you Mr. Amaru, but a business man like
myself always has to cover his back. If you are unable to make and
hold the sign in your condition, please have a nurse, friend,
co-worker make and hold it for you. I MUST make sure that these
pictures aren't fake. Like I previously stated, your generosity WONT
be overlooked. I appreciate all you've done Umaru (is it ok if I
call you Umaru, I don't want to be rude?). I have set aside out of
my personal account $25,000 to send you for all your trouble. As
soon as I get a picture with someone holding that sign, to verify I'm
not being set up....Ill send you all my personal information, and
also send you the $25,000. I hope this email finds you in good
health, and I ugrently await your reply

P.S. I have also attached a picture of myself, just for your
records, in case we need to meet sometime to finish any of this
transaction. Im on the far left, the head of trustees Led Zeppelin
is in the middle, and my wife Pamela Anderson in on the far right

Godspeed,
Pink Floyd
CEO and Vice President of Dark Side Of The Moon

I ATTACH PICTURE OF ADAM JONES, ALEX GREY, AND CAMELLA GRACE

I havent heard from Umaru in a few days, but was pulling the exact same scam with "Tambour"...he replies and seems willing

I reply, again detailing the pic

Quote:

Mr. Okadigbo,

thanks for the quick reply! Yes, I do know the picture sounds a
little odd, but it's just a precaution for our security. I'm afraid
if I don't have a personalized picture, with some sort of "off
the wall" message, any of the board members could be setting me
up, email me all of this, then find a random picture online, send it
to me, then BOOM...Im busted, and out of a job (and probablly in
jail).

Its not that I dont trust you in particular Mr. Okadigbo, its just
that before I go on with this transaction, for my own saftey, I have
to know that this is legit. I know how absurd this sounds, thats why
I have set aside a cool $25,000 just to show you how real I AM. As
soon, as I get the picture to confirm, then I send the cash (however
you prefer) then you know Im real, then we go from there.

As for the sign. Please make a sign that says on the top line
"I LOVE PINKS TACO". Im in love with mexican food, and
taco's are my favorite. On the second line write "MWSNS".
Thats our company's softball team. Both these are so random and odd,
that they couldn't be faked. The sign should look like this:

I LOVE PINKS TACO
MWSNS

Please, the quicker this little business gets out of the way, the
sooner we can get on to the more important things at hand, like
transfering all these funds

P.S. Ive attached a picture of myself for your records, just in case
we ever need to meet up. Im on the far left, the head of trustees
Led Zeppelin is in the middle, and my wife Pamela Anderson is on the
far right

Godspeed,
Pink Floyd
