The Ultimate Scam!

[Rm250RF900R]

That is the funniest damn thing i have ever read

[Banage]

i like that test out the addy idea. haha

[maggiesboy]

holy sheet thats hilarious

i have an idea: tell him that you want to send the money but you want to make sure that it gets to the right address and that HEreceives it. So you want to test out the mailing system to the address that he gives. send him one of those ATC t-shirts and have him send you a pic back of him wearing the shirt

now that would top the cake. but in all this is one of the best threads ever

that is a sweet idea! I'd rock that one....worth the scam.

[New2ATC]

thats great.. gonna be tough to end it now.. so keep it going...

[3 weelin geezer]

You should send him $1380 in Monopoly money or some other kind of play money...

You didn't see the Beavis and Butthead episode where they photocopy money to get rich and end up spending it all on paper and dimes did you?

[82'185s]

thats pretty funny i would almost just start another bank account and leave it empty and see what he does

[New2ATC]

Lol seems like a good idea..

I read that 419eater.com site it i have decided to have alittle fun with this too. I keep running into scams on craigslist but i just them be. Well now i have a persistant one that wants to ship me a four wheeler from 20 miles away from me. Obviously he has no idea how close i am but i will tell time when the time is right.

[3 weelin geezer]

Why don't you tell him that you are going on vacation and will drop by his house to pick it up and save on shipping?
Or just describe any problem to him that he hasn't told you about then tell him you found it on carfax or something.

[Macs]

well, he has tried this several times with me and i always tell him i will pick it up and then i never hear from him again. The machine keeps changing. So i am letting this one ride a little longer.

FROM,THE DESK OF MR JOE MANOS
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER
FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK,
OUAGADOUGOU,BURKINA FASO.
TEL.00226 78 83 79 61.

Dear Friend,

I am the manager bill and exchange of the foreign remittance department of African Development Bank, ouagadougou burkina faso, My dear I am trusting this deal to you buy faith and hope that you will handle it without know problem.

In my department file, I discovered an abandoned sum of US $12.6m (Twelve million, six hundred thousand US Dollars) in an account that belongs to one
of our foreign customer who died along with his wife and the only daughter in November 2, 1997 in a plane crash.

Since I got information about his death, I have been watching out for his next of kin to come over and claim this money because, the bank cannot release it
to any person unless somebody apply for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as it is indicated in our banking guidelines and laws, unfortunately,
I discovered that the only next of kin died alongside with him a plane crash being his only daughter left nobody or relation for claim.

It is therefore upon this discovery that I have decided to make this business proposal to you as a foreigner and for you to stand as the next of kin or a relation to deceased person for and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for the claim and
I don’t want this money to go into the banks treasury as unclaimed bill , the banking law and guideline ARTICLE A section ABD/O11 of 1991,stipulates that if such is found in our bank after five (10) years remain unclaimed the money will be
transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund.

The request of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer is a foreigner, a Burkinabe and a Burkinabe cannot
stand as a next of kin to a foreigner.

I arrange that 30% of this money will be for you’re as foreigner partner in respect to the
provision of a foreign account, 10% will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business, handled by you, and 60% will be for me. Thereafter, I will visit
your country for disbursement according to the percentage as indicated. Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this money to your private account, you have to apply first to the bank as relation or next of kin to the deceased.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or e-mail the text of the application, I will not fail
to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch free and do not entertain any fear as all required arrangement has been made for the transfer.

You should contact me immediately you receive my letter through
my telephone or e-mail.
Trusting to hear from you.
Yours faithfully
URGENT .
MR JOE MANOS.

I sent him an email stating that 30% is too low and I would like to recieve 45%, him 45% and we split the difference on the paperwork since he is going to be my partner. Last time I had to say I was Egon Spengler the grandfather of some guy that died in a plane crash in Switzerland. Where is wagadugu, burkina anyways???
