I found a person of interest to keep me busy while I keep my other scammers waiting and waiting.

Dear Doke wood,

Following the receipt of your email message; Base on your interest in helping us in this transaction, I am very pleased to confirm to you the procedures through which we can conclude this transaction as soon as possible. What we required from you is your honesty, trust and pure sincerity to assist us.

First, I wish to inform you that we need a special account here for the deposit of this huge amount of money; this account is called non-residential dollar account. The reason, we are not allowed to open a bank account on our own because of our refugee status, we can only move this money through the banking network here through the help of the banker and that entails that you have to come down to Johannesburg South Africa as soon as possible for you to help us secure an account in your name where this money will be deposited for onward telegraphic transfer to your nominated Bank Account overseas.

Your coming down to Johannesburg South Africa will also enable us to know who you are in person and we shall enter into agreement of Memorandum of Understanding for sharing/investment in your country.

Please buy your ticket as soon as possible, i will expect to see you soon and your stay in Johannesburg will last for three bank working days, transfer will be done.

I am thinking of going into any of a profitable business as oil and gas, real estate, transportation, healthcare, mining, resorts/hotels/restaurants, information technology, telecommunication, agriculture, fisheries, stock exchange etc.,

Wasting their time with a comment on an inheritance to get them excited:

Quote:

Hi, my bank account is all online, I do not get a monthly statement. The same for my electric bill. I inherited enough money that electric bill is autodrafted every month without me having to write a check.

Any other things that will work? Perhaps I can show my bank account balance and information on my ipad when I get there in Johhanesburg.

I have checked airline ticket prices and saved the information for when we decide on a date.

I went to check my K7 phone number for messages and the number no longer gives a voicemail, just rings and rings. I went to their website and a lot of their site isn't working. Any ideas what's up with K7?
