These people still mail any of you? I'm down to only one a week.

And I dunno what's sadder, that they still try to swindle me, or that the picture I mention in this reply is real, though I lost track of it after my Grandfather passed away.

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>Well fortune smiles apon us both...let's make a deal. There's a little problem concerning a branch of your bank I'd like to get around. In the Brooklyn branch, located behind White Castle Hamburgers, is a safety deposit box that was in my grandfathers name, problem is it was only in his name...and he passed away in 1977. It is known for certain that the contents of the box include a picture my Grandfather took: Three Nazi's urinating off a bridge somewhere in bumfuck, Europe. Now this picture is a family heirloom, and in itself quite an important historical artifact relating to the European Theatre Of Operations in World War Two. You help the greedy management of that branch to fork it over, and we may have a deal.

P.s. the picture has been inside an envelope as early as the ninteen sixties, so any incriminating fingerprints et.al on it when it's returned will be held accountable by you and your bank.

Oh and thanks for asking me for help with your fiancial dilema. You won't regret it.

MR. THOMAS MBEKI.
PACIFIC BANK OF SOUTH AFRICA,
9TH FLOOR, HEERENGRACHT TOWER,
STANDARD BANK CENTER,CAPE TOWN,
SOUTH AFRICA.
Dear Sir,
I am Mr. Thomas Mbeki, Provincial Director Pacific
Bank of South Africa, Cape Town Branch. I have an
urgent and very confidential business proposition for
you.
On June 6, 1998, a Foreign Oil consultant/contractor
with the South Africa Mining Corporation, Mr. Charles
Andason made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for
twelve calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00
(Twenty- five Million Dollars) in my branch. Upon
maturity, I sent a routine notification to his
forwarding address but got no reply. After a month,
we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his
contract employers, the South Africa Mining
Corporation that Mr. Charles Andason died from an
automobile accident. On further investigation, I found
out that he died without making a WILL and all
attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered
that Mr. Charles Andason did not declare any kin or
relations in all his official documents, including his
Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of
US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the
interest is being rolled over with the principal sum
at the end of each year. No one will ever come
forward to claim it. According to South Africa Law,
at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will
revert to the ownership of the South Africa Government
if nobody applies to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a
foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr.
Charles Andason so that the fruits of this old man's
labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt
government officials. This is simple, I will like you
to provide immediately your full names and address so
that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents
and affidavits, which will put you in place as the
next of kin/beneficiary to his estate. We shall
employ the service of Attorneys to process the
necessary documents and letter of
probate/administration in your favor in order for the
transfer to take place. A bank account in any part of
the world, which you will provide, will then
facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the
beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into
your account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for
me and 40% for you.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for the
Attorney and my position will do this transaction as
the Provincial Director guarantees the successful
execution of this transaction. If you are interested,
please reply immediately via the private email address
below ,
response, I shall then provide you with my direct phone number
more details and relevant documents that will help you understand
the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest
assured that this transaction would be most profitable
for both of us because I shall require your assistance
to invest my share in your country.
Awaiting your urgent reply via my
email:thomasmveki@yahoo.com
Thanks and regards.

What is saddest of all is that some people still fall for this scam.

A personal favorite is the one e-mail I got from a Siera Leone refugee camp. Somehow a single mother in said refugee camp was able to e-mail me after finding my e-mail on a forum. Well I had to reply and inform her of some sad news...she was obviously better off than me since she had her own PC & ISP. While I have to surf at the library.
