Please reply me through my private email: [e-mail]


I am writing this letter with due respect and heartful of tears since we have not known or met ourselves previously.

I am asking for your assistance after I have gone through a profile in your site that speaks good of you. I will be so glad if you can allow and lead me to the right channel towards your assistance to my situation now.

I will make my proposal well known if I am given the opportunity. I would like to use this opportunity to introduce myself to you.
I am Musa Mohammed, Am 22years old young man and I know that this proposal might be a surprise to you but do consider it as an emergency.

In nutshel, My (late) father Mr Edward Duru Mohammed was a very wealthy gold and cocoa merchant who based in Accra and Abidjan respectively. But he
was killed along side with my mother during last year's Rebel attack and all his investment and properties was totally destroyed.

However, after their death I managed to escape with a very important document (DEPOSIT CERTIFICATE (US$8.5m) Eight million Five hundred
thousand U.S Dollars deposited by my late father in the bank
which i am the next of kin.

Meanwhile,i am saddled with the problem of securing a trust worthy foreign personality to help me transfer the money over to his country and into his
possession pending my arrival to meet with him.

Furthermore,you can contact the bank for confirmation and i will issue a letter of authorization on your name,that will enable the bank to deal with you on my behalf.

I am giving you this offers as mentioned with every confidence on your acceptance to assist me or take me as your child and manage the
money. I am inclined to offer you 15% of the total sum as a mode of compensation for your effort after the successful transferring of these fund to your nominated account overseas

Conclusively,i wish you send me a reply immediately as soon as you receive this proposal.
please write me back with this email
address ( [e-mail]) Thanks for your understanding
Until then,
I remain with the best regards

Musa Mohammed.

Wow!

I got one, too! I feel so included.

A gold and cocoa merchant? Does he make those gold-wrapped chocolate coins?

GG, you should be honored. God.

Got one here...

I may help this fellow.


At least make him think I will.

I got 2, but they've disappeared. I assume Mr. Musa was deleted?

[WithoutATrace]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 11:35am

Wow. Got one in my personal email as well.

I got a PM and two e-mails on my home account from him

My second reference to Craig's list of the day...but,

there is a very funny "Best of" that chronicles someone's coorespondance with one of these scammers. Sending them to western union with bogus account numbers, etc.

The responses were a riot.

Mr Musa seems to have morphed into Eric555.

[FosseBoi]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:10pm

Yeah, I just got the PM. What the crap?

[robbiej]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:19pm

Me too!

I feel so special.

[WesternSky2]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:21pm

I got an email AND a pm..

[papalovesmambo]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:22pm

eh, mine came from eric555 so i must not be as special.

[Illegally Blondish]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:23pm

I got one from Musa555... then Rob must have banned him because then I got ANOTHER one from Eric555.

Should I feel extra special?

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:24pm

I used to get these as emails all the time.

Now they are all over Craigslist job postings.

[WesternSky2]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:25pm

And now it's telling me I have a PM but there's nothing there... it's driving me nuts.

[yodamarie78]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:27pm

I guess this is the next step. First email, then myspace, then Craigslist, now BWW. So many fake trust funds, so many possibilities.

[WesternSky2]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:29pm

Just got another email.

[PalJoey]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:33pm

I just got mine--from a poster named eric555

[Patronus]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 12:33pm

Hooray! eric555, hooked me up as well.

[Kitzarina]

Posted: 6/8/06 at 1:13pm

He hooked me up on PMs as well as on my email. I'm double special.
