The last version of this I got used Zimbabwe, but the financial brokers always seem to be from the Netherlands:
********
From Mrs. Marian Labanu
Email: labanufamily4@hitoori.com
ATTN:
PROJECT/2003/MALANU-INVESTMENT ASSISTANCE.
I know you will be surprised to read from me, more so it comes from a stranger. But please consider this as a request from a family in a dare need of assistance.
First I must introduce myself; I am Mrs. Marian Labanu the wife of late chief Bennet Mudok Labanu, of the Republic of Zimbabwe. I got your contact through South African chambers of commerce. Having gone through your profile; I believe that you may be capable enough to handle this very transaction.
Before his death my husband was one of the secret supporters of the white farmers group who wanted to topple the government of President Robert Mugabe. He was the treasurer of this group and also one of the speakers for the white farmers in the black communities in Zimbabwe. My husband was assassinated along with some other prominent people who opposed President Mugabes confiscation of most white owned farm lands in Zimbabwe.
Before his death, Chief Mudok my husband was also in charge of arms and ammunition purchase for the white farmers from the Republic of South Africa, due to his direct contact with some prominent people in government there.
After his burial, his lawyer called my attention and enlightened me about some funds, which my husband acquired during his trips to Johannesburg for arms purchase, and deposited with a security and financial company here in the Netherlands. He directed that I should secure the release of these funds for our childrens investment purposes overseas
My family and I are presently in the Netherlands as asylum seekers. And I am soliciting for your assistance to transfer the sum of US$ 11.5 Million (Eleven million, five hundred thousand United States dollars) into your companys/personal account for investment purposes outside Africa.
Please should you be interested, contact my attorney. Mr. Jurgen Van Der Laar.Email Jurgenvanderlaar@netscape.net.
There is an outstanding liability of $62, 720.00 (Sixty two thousand, seven hundred and twenty United States Dollars) owned to the security company, how ever I have discussed with a financier who is willing to pay this money. All that I require of you is an investment plan and the willingness to honestly help me. There will be no cost what so ever on your part.
I want you to understand that the future of both me and my children depends on this money; as such I will be grateful if you can assist me.Our present legal status as asylum seekers does not permit us financial rights to such huge amount of money, and we cannot also take the money back to Zimbabwe for obvious reasons. We are prepared to offer you a negotiable 20% of the total sum for your assistance. 10% will be set aside for all eventual expenses that may be incurred by both parties. 70% will be for my familys investment in your country, with your able assistance. For more information on this, please contact Mr. Jurgen Van Der Laar.
My family and I are counting on your mercy and understanding. Thank you in advance, while we anxiously wait for your response.
Yours sincerely
Mrs. Marian Labanu

I wrote back and told them that the former minister of petroleum in Nigeria was going to give me 30% of the 63 million in funds for unpaid contracts that he had to get out of Nigeria, so I simply had to go with the better offer. Got no response, though.

Why do they always come from Nigeria BTW?? |
I've gotten version from Sudan, Zimbabwe, Angola, etc, etc. Probably half of the African continent, plus Afghanistan and Iraq
I've also seen a number of versions from the Netherlands as well, some similar to these, some very different ones (in one I had supposedly actually won the Dutch national lottery -- which might have been believable if they hadn't addressed me in English )
I think most of these scams are actually being organised by African groups in the Netherlands -- I read something in the paper a while ago about some Nigerians from Amsterdam being arrested for Internet fraud. The article was very short though, it didn't mention any specifics...

Similar to the lottery one I mentioned in my previous post. Here it doesn't mention the Netherlands specifically but the phone number is a Dutch mobile phone number (and the name of the sender sounds Dutch as well).
The second one is another variation on the classic Nigeria scam 
From: Barr Mark Misan [markmisan33@fsmail.net]
quote:
Dear Beloved in Christ,
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, knowing the truth and
the truth have set me free. Having known the truth, I had no choice
than to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God for eternal life
and in the sight of man for witness of God?s mercy and glory upon my
life.
I have the pleasure to share my testimony with you, having seen your
contact from the Internet. I am Barrister Mark Misan , the legal adviser
to late Mr. and Mrs. Bright Williams, a British couple that lived in my
Country Nigeria for 25 years before they both died in the plane crash
late last year. These couples were good Christians, they so dedicated to
God but they had no child till they died. Throughout their stay in my
country, they acquired a lot of properties like lands, house properties,
etc.
As their legal adviser, before their death, the husband Mr. Bright
Williams instructed me to write his WILL. Because they had no child, they
dedicated their wealth to God. According to the WILL, the properties
have to be sold and the money be given out to a ministry for the work of
God. As their legal adviser, all the documents for the properties were
in my care. He gave me the authority to sell the properties and give out
the fund to the Ministries for the work of God.
In short, I sold all the properties after their death, as instructed by
Mr. Bright Williams before his death. And as matter of fact, after I
sold all their properties, I realized more than $10,000,000.00 (Ten
million US dollars plus), and what supposed to be the percentage interest of
my right legal fee was firstly deducted by me out of the total amount
realized from the sold properties, this was base on the initial
agreement between me and the owner of the properties before his death.
Therefore the total amount left to be invested into God's work as instructed by
the owner, is $10,000,000.00 (Ten million US dollars) only. But Instead
of giving the main fund out for the work of God as instructed to me by
the owner before his death.
I converted the fund to myself with the intention of investing the fund
abroad for my personal use. I was afraid of putting the fund in the
Bank, because I have to give account to the bank on how I got the money. I
then packaged the fund in consignments and deposited the con
I had encounter with Christ when Pastor Benny Hinn was preaching on
television concerning Ananias and Saphira in Acts 5:1-11. After hearing
the word of God, I gave my life to Christ and became a born again
Christian. As a born again Christian, I started reading my bible and one day,
the Lord opened my eyes to Ezekiel 33: 18 and 19 where the word of God
says: "When the righteous truth from his righteousness, and committee
iniquity, he shall even die thereby. But if the wicked turn from his
wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby".
From the scripture, I discovered that the only way I could have peace
in my life is to do what is lawful and right by giving out the fund as
instructed for the work of God by the owner before his death.
I have asked God for forgiveness and I know that God have forgiven me.
But I have to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God by giving
out the fund to the chosen ministry for the purpose of God's wok as
instructed by the owner before his death.
After my fasting and prayers, I asked God to make his choice and direct
me to a honest Christian or the chosen ministry that deserves this fund
by his Grace. I then came across your address on the Internet as I was
browsing through a Christian site, and as a matter of fact, it is not
only you or your ministry that I picked on the Christian site initially,
but after my fervent prayer over it, then you were nominated to me
through divine revelation from God, so these are how I received such a
divine revelation from the Lord, how I got your contact information, and I
then decided to contact you for the fund to be used wisely for things
that will glorify the name of God.
I have notified the Security Company where I deposited the consignments
that contained the fund, that I am moving the consignment abroad and
the security company has since been waiting for my authority for the
consignment to leave my country and move to abroad.
So if you know that you will use this fund honestly and wisely for
things that will glorify God's name, then do contact me back first through
this my email address:markmisan33@yahoo.com
You should also forward to me your telephone and fax number for easy
communication and to fax you the documents concerning the consignments.
Your prompt response will be highly appreciated.
Yours in Christ.
Barrister Mark Misan. |

Got this non-Nigerian one yesterday aparantly, didn't even read it.
quote:
MR. WANG QIN
HANG SENG BANK LTD.
DES VOEUX RD. BRANCH,
CENTRAL HONG KONG,
HONK KONG.
Dear Sir,
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Wang Qin credit officer of
the Hang Seng Bank Ltd. I have a concealed business suggestion for
you.
Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client General. Ibrahim Moussa who was
with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed
deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of Twenty millions Five
Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity
several notice was sent to him, even during the war early this year.
Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response
came from him. We later find out that the General and his family had
been killed during the war in bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen. Ibrahim
Moussa did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the
paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last
time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my
bank. So, Twenty millions Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is
still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it.
What bothers me most is that according to the to the laws of my country
at the expiration 3 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the
Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as
a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Gen. Ibrahim Moussa so that you
will be able to receive his funds.
WHAT IS TO BE DONE:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we
shall come out successful. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare
the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen.
Ibrahim Moussa, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to
provide me with your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can
commence his job. After you have been made the next of kin, the
attorney will also fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the
necessary approval and letter of probate in your favor for the move of the
funds to an account that will be provided by you.
There is no risk involved at all in the matter as we are going adopt a
legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary
documents. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters
concerning this issue.
Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account
we
shall share in the ratio of 70% for me, 25% for you and 5% for any
expenses incurred during the course of this operation.
Should you be interested please send me your Full names and address
and I will provide you with more details of this operation.
l will prefers you to reach me no this email below wang_qin200
@tiscali.co.uk security purpose.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Kind Regards
Mr. Wang Qin

What! So that e-mail I got from Mobutu's widow some time ago wasn't real?! I guess I can say goodbye to that €50,000 loan I got for them, then? Not to mention my percentage of his millions.
