Thanks for your mail.I am so depressed sending you this message I traveled to UK for a business transaction with Chevron Oil and Gas Production Company, I have been a share holder with this company over the years and was invited for their end of the year Annual Convention. Due to some urgent issues I ran out of cash and I am having problems withdrawing from my account right here.I tried contacting my bank and was told that there is nothing they could do until I return back home,so I was wondering if you could lend me $1,150pounds so I can quickly get some things done and also take a cab to the airport as soon as I return back home i refund the money.let me know so i can send you my details for transfer salamat God bless

Confidential Respond - Beware everyone

Good day!

Example of a a new scam?  The Nigerian scam? Beware if you receive  something like this

I am Mrs Wend Toore auditing and accounting department" bank of Africa (boa) Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso .I discovered the sum of seven million, two hundred thousand dollars (usd7.2) belonging to a deceased customer of this bank the fund has been lying in a suspense account without anybody coming to put claim over the money since the account owner late, Mr Salla khat from Lebanese who was involved in the December 28th 2007 Benin car crash.

it is therefore, upon this discovery that i decided to take this ultimatum and make this business proposal to you as the fund will be release to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and i don't want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill the banking rules here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after seven years, the money will be transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner and a Burkina be cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.

Therefore, I am soliciting for your assistance to come forward as the next of kin. I have agreed that 40% of this money will be for you as the beneficiary respect of the provision of your account and service rendered, 60% will be for me. Then immediately the money transferred to your account from this bank, I will proceed to your country for the sharing of the fund.


Yours faithful,

Mrs Wend Toore
