    New email scam - just in

    --------------------------
    Dear David Cohen

    I am Barrister Peter John a solicitor at law.I am the personal attorney
    to late Mr Hens*Cohen, who was an official contractor(category A) with a CONTRUCTION COMPANY IN LONDON UK. Here in after shall be referred to as my client.

    On the 10th of May 2002, my client, his wife and their only son were involved in a car accident along Asiyeye express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several inquiries and presentations to embassies to locate any of my client's extended relatives, this has also proved abortive.It is after these several unsuccessful attempts to locate any member of his family failed that I decided to contact you so that*you can invariably be of help in this situation to stands as the next of
    kin to this my client or his business partner

    I am contacting you to assist in recovering the money**Five Million, Five Hundred Thousand ($5.5M)*and*valuables left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposit were lodged.

    Already, the finance company where the deceased had an account valued at
    about US$5.5 million dollars has issued me a notice/ultimatum to provide
    the next of kin or the account will be confiscated in the next one month .

    Since It has been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over*2 years
    now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at US$5.5 million dollars can be paid to your account and there after we can share (money )in the ratio of 6:4. That is, I will have 60% of the proceed while you have 40% for for your assistance.

    I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim
    we may make. All I require is your co-operation to enable us see this transaction through .I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement .

    Please get in touch with me by my email and send to me your telephone and
    fax numbers to enable us discuss further about this transaction.

    Best regards,

    BarrBarrister Peter John

    I replied that the thieving cocksucker would be most welcome to call in person to set it up.

    The funniest thing is that any lowlife lawyer with a sniff at that sorta dosh wouldn't bother trying to locate anybody, they'd just eat it up in fees.

    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.

    we will remember them

    Apparently, scams are the 3rd (?) largest industry in Nigeria. How many suckers are there in the world? Enough to make it a 5 billion dollar industry!

    Any email that declares a sum of money is basically a scam. Business of this nature is not conduucted in this manner, anywhere in the world, even by the sleaziest of lawyers. I especially love the "you relative has left you XXX dollars", and you need to verify the details of your Visa account with us so we can be positive you are who you say you are.

    The bank ones are even funnier.
