RE: IMMEDIATE PAYMENT NOTIFICATION

Attn: Beneficiary

This is to draw your attention that your fund
($7.690million) lying in suspense account with the CENTRAL
BANK OF NIGERIA. The presidency Federal Government of
Nigerian has authorized us to verify effect
every outstanding payment immediately based on the
Government instruction by the President Alhaji Musa
Yar'Adua, the only problem now is that we dictated a
lot of irregularities associated with your transfer and

we will appreciate it if you answer the following
question.

(1) Did you at any time delegate any body not even
from your family to claim your fund on your behalf?

(2) Were you involved in a motor accident?

(3) Are you aware or related to one Mr. Thomas Mick
from your country?

Please reconfirm and answer the above questions
because Mr. Thomas Mick came to our foreign payment
department and submitted an application that you
authorized your fund to be paid into the account of Union
Bank of Switzerland (UBS) with Account number
UBS-A943BDG99 with a report that you are now paralyzed
as a result of the ghastly motor accident you had some
months back.

After processing the application of Mr Thomas Mick
himself which he made known to us that he came from
you, he succeeded in getting some required documents
as to make sure that we effect this transfer as
quickly as possible without any further delay.

The delay in transferring the funds is due to the
request for a power of attorney authorizing him to pursue
this payment on your behalf. He asked for a week so as
to submit the document, but up till now we have
not received any of the documents from any of you.
Why? please forward us the power of attorney by a
return E-mail: so that we can ask Union Bank of
Switzerland (UBS) to effect your payment to his nominated
Bank account on your behalf without delay. Reply to my
personal email address
[email protected] or you can call me on my
direct number +234-805-6064158
otherwise let me have your number to call you and do
not fail to reply to the email address stated above.

Based on this issue the fund will be paid to you via
swift transfer to your account or ATM DEBIT CARD
which will be sent to your home address and you will
be instructed on your daily withdrawls of
$30,000.00usd per day untill the sum is completed.

Anticipating your prompt response.

Best Regards.

Dear Prof. Charles C. Soludo.

I recieved you e-mail this morning, and I have to say I am a bit confused. You say there is some money in an account for me? How is this possible? I have no idea who Thomas Mick is, and I was not involved in a car accident. Is it possible that you have mistaken me for someone else? Please send whatever information you can so I can understand this better. I am wondering if this could be something my late Aunt has left for me. Her name was xxxxx, and she lived in xxx xxxx Can you help me understand what all of this is?

Thank you

Notice how he picked right up on my "dead aunt" story?

Attn: Kathy Robinson

In respect to your email, this funds like you said was left behind by our last customer and for the past 7years the account has not been operational due to the fact that owner of the account is dead and we have not heard from any relative of her's.

This Mr. Thomas Mick i got to understand now was present by some officials to move the funds so i decided to contact you to know if you have instructed anyone to do the claiming on your behalf but if not then please get back to me so i can inform you on the next process to receive your funds due to you.

Dear Prof. Charles C. Soludo,

Since I knew nothing of the funds you speak of, it is obvious I gave no instructions to anyone to move them. Again, I do not know anyone by the name of Thomas Mick. Sorry it took so long to get back to you, but your e-mail went to my bulk files, and I just now found it. I'm sorry, but I am still confused. Could you explain to me what this is all about?

Sincerly,

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Attn: Kathy Robinson

In respect to your email received this morning regards the unclaimed funds. I want you to know that this funds were left behind by our customer your late aunty and this acount since then has not been operational that has left it domant. This Mr. Thomas Mick with the assistance of some ban officials now want to use the opportunity to move the funds for their own personal use instead of having you to cliam the funds.

Upon my notice i decided to contact you based on this fact to know if you realy authurized anyone to do the claiming on your behalf.

But since you notified me that you did not i have stop the payment to Mr. Mick and we have not seen him again as he now knows that it has come to my notice that he is an inposter. So all i am expecting is for you to stand to claim this funds which will be paid to you via ATM DEBIT CARD instead of bank transfer that will take a long process and time and also cost you much money but with the ATM DEBIT CARD you have nothing to worry about.

So i expect that you can understand my explanations and get back to me so i will inform on how we can start with the process of this claim.

Prof. Charles C. Soludo

I stroke him a little bit here:

Dear Prof. Charles C. Sloudo,

I am so grateful that you are so observant! My aunt would have been mortified if she knew a crook was trying to take her money! My head is spinning at the thought of this. You said this Thomas Mick was working with some of the bank official in this scheme. Have they been arrested? I wonder how he found out that you have made a stop payment so quickly. I would like to press charges against them, but I don't know what I can do from here. How does the law in your country work on something like this? I think these imposters should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Please let me know what I can do about this.

I'm glad you are such an honest man, otherwise who knows what could have happened. You should be rewarded according to your actions. What do you think I should do next?

Gratefully,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
