We have this on 13th day of April, 2008 received a payment credit instruction from the Federal Government of Nigeria to credit your account with your full contract funds from the Nigerian Reserve Account with our bank.

This is to notify you that your funds has been programmed for immediate release into your nominated account, but we can not transfer this funds directly into  your nominated bank account, because we are having a little problem with International Monetary Fund (IMF); so, our method of payment will be via  Diplomatic Courier Service.

Diplomatic Services has been made; and your funds have been packaged as a consignment.

Meanwhile, be also  informed that the Diplomatic Agent has to move down to your Country in order to deliver the Consignment to your doorstep as appropriate.

Note that as soon as the Diplomat(s) arrive to your Country they will give you a call to notify you of their arrival. Then, you will have to help the diplomats to get a (yellow Tag Paper)  to avoid stoppage of any kind  by the customs and immigration at the Airport. Furthermore,  for security reasons, you are advice to follow the rules and regulatios of the Diplomats for easy collection of your consignment. You will have to welcome them warmly, to create  an enabling atmosphere for them, and then, they will deliver the Consignment to  you immediately.

Also note that as soon as the Diplomats obtain the above named Certificate  (Yellow Tag Paper) they will deliver the Consignment to your door step with no further problems.

Please don’t forget that its not only your consignment that has to be delivered, as they still have a transit to Poland, and finally to arrived your  Country as the last destination on their Diplomatic Travel Route this week,  I want you to send your direct mobile phone and your home address to me immediately, so that as soon as the diplomats arrive in the States, they will  call you immediately to notify you of their arrival, and then, you will  call me  immediately.

Another rehashed scam wanting money to release a consignment of gold dust.

from: morris_agogo2@yahoo.com

Beloved ,

my name is Mr. Morris Agogo, from Sudan ; although this proposal might come to you as a surprise I am sending this mail to you in a good faith by the grace of god to build an utmost confidence in you.

My father Dr. Thomson Agogo (of his blessed memory) was the chief accountant to the ministry of finance in the past political regime in Sudan .
During his vibrant days of services, he deposited; 350 kilogram of unrefined gold dust, worth of sixteen million, six hundred and eighty thousand pounds i.e.
(£16. 680. 000. 00) in a security company as a family items for security reasons, here in Accra Ghana the nearest country west African because as a civil servant he cannot keep this funds in his private account in our country.

I am therefore soliciting for a help. I want you to help me receive the funds oversea for investment purposes. my late father signed a contract bond which stated that he will claim these boxes with his foreign partner abroad but unfortunately; we lost his partner in the last London after a brief illness, may his soul rest in perfect peace.

That is the more reason why I need your help because our proposed partner is dead and the company has given us the authority to appoint someone who will stand and receive the boxes, all the deposit documents which my late father usedto deposit the boxes in the security company is with us here in Ghana . I promised to will offer 35% for your help and any expenses inured. (Both as miscellaneous and accrued expenses).

I pray that the good god almighty through his infinite mercy will continue to bless you more abundantly. Please do reply me if you accept my proposal, I will be waiting to be hearing from you soonest.

 

Best regards.
From: Mr. Morris Agogo.
