ISLAND,LAGOS NIGERIA.Dear Friend,I am a director in the foreign affairs
department of the NigerianNational Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). I got your
email during apersonal research on the Internet and wish to use this
opportunity tonotify you of the existence of a certain amount we wish to
transferoverseas for the purpose of investments and importation of goods
fromyour country. In May 2001, a contract of sixty-six million United States
dollars($66,000,000) was awarded to a foreign company by my ministry.
Thecontract was supply, erection and system optimization of supper
polyore200,000-bpsd, system optimization of 280,000-monax axial plants and
thecomputerization of conveyor belt for Kaduna refinery. With only
theconsent of the head of the contract evaluation department, I overinvoiced
the contract value by thirty four million United States
dollars($34,000,000). The contract has been completed long ago and the
foreign company fullypaid off. But in the office files and paper work, the
company is stillowed USD34M representing the over invoiced amount. Because
this amountis derived from the award and execution of a foreign contract,
there isno way the money can be paid locally. That is why I contacted you
sothat we can do the project together for our mutual benefit. We
haveconcluded every necessary arrangement to transfer this amount to
aforeign account as the final phase payment for the said contract. Whatwe
need is your bank account into which we can deposit the money andafter we
shall come over there to share the money with you. We sincerely need an
honest person to work with and have agreed to sharethe money in the
following percentages, 70% will be for us who willeffect the transfer and
30% will be for you whose account is used tosecure the funds. There is no
risk involvement because applicationswill be made to the concerned Federal
ministries and parastatal withofficial approvals given by the Federal
government before the Centralbank of Nigeria will be officially empowered to
wire the funds to youraccount by telegraphic transfer. If you are
interested, contact me by Email through osmund@2by2.netindicating your full
names or company name and address. Your directtelephone and fax numbers. The
name and address of the bank you willlike us to deposit the money, the
telephone and fax numbers of the bank,your account number etc. Everything

No Mike, Cole and I are like 'this' (crosses two fingers) - you don't think
I would be dumb enough to post this all over the internet unless I had him
stitched right up??
I actually have an email from the NigerianNational Petroleum Corporatio
(definitely genuine) - where he says how much he appreciates having an
honest person to help him through this transaction! I asked him 'God's truth
I get all this money?' and he said 'without a doubt' - you know Mike, I
pride myself that I can read people - know what I mean? He said the money is
virtually on its way! Curt gets a new stool for sure!

Not me. Actually, I'm waiting on some MAJOR bucks myself. Yup, from
the widow of the late Nigerian head of state, General Sani Abacha.
Kinda out of the blue proposal, but, hey, planets align and all that,
right?

> - ha ha! (sure Curt I'll upgrade your

Of course, I'd never look a gift horse in the mouth. An upgraded stool
would be cool. How much would it cost to repaint the Dumpster? I mean,
you supply the paint and I can paint it myself, David.

Wow! Nigeria must be flush with cash.

A shame, however, that most of it is apparently inaccessible. The
widow's family account in Switzerland is worth $22 million US and
another 120 million Dutch Marks. Yeah! Sadly, it was confiscated by
the government. But all I gotta do is send her all my banking
information in order to help her gain access to her riches.

Me? I get a cool, um, well, $12.95 (and a Snickers bar) as a reward.
Not quite your aforementioned ten mil, but seeing as how the Nigerian
government has been after her and her family, molesting, policing and
freezing their bank accounts, I figured I'd cut her a deal and help
her get her hands on the bucks.

Geez, even her eldest son right now is in detention!

I'm glad to help and I'm even MORE glad for you, my friend. Spend your
riches well.

No, no, no David....Cole said emphatically that I am the recipient of that
big load - geez sounds like I need to pass a load - of $$$$$.
I guess Cole put on his "poker" face when he told you that you'd "come" into
all that money, David. Suggest you might need to resort to "braille' when
you next "read" our good mate (or is he).
Hey Curt, I'll replace that hard-top stool with a "cushoned" one - so forget
David's meagre replacement....ok

Now, Mike that is a load of crap. Don't start giving me sh... WOAH!
You're right, Mike. I hadn't realized that. ;o) Must be an unconscious

Hogwash. I'll be able to furnish cubicle all on my own as soon as that

Well, now I got an email from Cole - he said they hit a bit of a snag . . ..
he said just a bit of red tape that is a routine part of every transaction -
well . . . this is a little embarassing . . . . seems he needs $1840 to
have the money released - they call it some kind of stamp duty - like he
said, the money is in the system now and due to be released within 24 hours
of receiving that small amount of money ., I said "Hey Cole, are you fair
dinkum about this? This isn't one of those Nigerian scams we hear about??"
Know what he said and it put my fears aside and put me at ease . . . he said
"David, would I do that to you? We are like brothers!" So right away I knew
he was the full quid. So my mom is going to help me get the money together
(I had to promise her a new apartment overlooking the ocean!! - know what
she said ? She said "David I always knew you would make me proud!")

The only fat check you're likely to see is your obese landlord who comes
from czechoslovakia - and I suggest you get that rent money ready for him
pretty quick -

I found out from Cole that once the head of state learned that you were
involved and all about the cubicle etc they pulled out of the deal!

Hey!! That's the same guy that contacted me to take care of this little
transaction for him - seems he just inherited a lot of money but due to some
tecnicality he needs to deposit his funds in some backwater country (so he
chose Australia) - says that I should earn 30% and I am just dickering with
him about the rate - I told him I thought it should be 50-50 and just
waiting for a reply - I think he should go for it.

You got $12 bucks?? Where'd you get that kind of money?? Curt you been
holding back on us? The way we figure it if you ever get money left over you
must be overpaid!

Geez, this post reads like the most recent employee evaluation I
received from you. Cut a guy some slack, would you?

Ha! Send the check to the Czech? I've ever met the owner of the
shoebox I currently call home. The rent, as I've stated previously, is
only $305 a month. I'm MFW's answer to Harry Potter so far as the
cupboard living arrangement is concerned. ;o) Fine, however, as the
price is right and home is for sleep and a shower.

Always good advice.

Three? Blue, orange, and yellow? Please?

You are right on - if I lived on my own in a city that's exactly what I
would do - live in a studio apt - have the basics and enjoy life on my
Harley and use the facilities around town - years ago I spent a lot of time
in a campervan - was the most fun I ever had -

I think this Cole guy is playing us - never trusted him - plus this morning
I got an advice from the bank to say that my account has been closed and
money transferred to some strange bank in Africa - so I think it is just a
mistake and will check it out - I doubt Cole would do a thing like that!

Ok Curt - the $20 you owe me from last Christmas pales into insignificance
now that I am expecting this little 'gift' from Nigeria
