My email friend has moved from Nigeria to Paraguay

[R.Youden]

Do you remember those old emails that you used to get about transferring money to a prince in Nigeria? Well I just got a new one, he has apparently moved to Paraguay!

Hello my old friend,
I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting those funds transferred under the cooperation of a new partner from paraguay. Presently I'm in Paraguay for investment projects with my own share of the total sum. meanwhile, i didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in transferring those funds despite that it failed us some how.

Now contact my young formal secretary in Cotonou Benin Republic his information is below:
Rev.Pastor. Paul Akajiugo
email: (paulakajiugo05@yahoo.fr)
Telephone: 00 (229) 93-99-25-75
Ask him to send you the Cheque of One Million Euro Bond cheque £1.000.000.00 which i kept for your compensation for all the past efforts and attempts to assist me in this matter. Contact him with your contact address and Telephone number where he can send your cheque to you.
I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. so feel free and get in touch with Mr Paul Akajiugo and instruct him where to send the amount to you.

Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share the joy after all the sufferings at that time. in the moment, I'm very busy here because of the investment projects which me and the new partner are having at hand, finally, remember that I had forwarded instruction to Mr Paul Akajiugo on your behalf to receive that money, so feel free to get in touch with him without any delay.

Yours Faithfully.

Barr, Kalu James. From Paraguay.

I was just thinking I hadn't had emails like this for ages, god knows how they got my email address though!

You really should read "Yes Man" by Danny Wallace to see what happens when you respond to one of those e-mails.

 

[Abstract]

Racism against Nigerians caused by eBay.

One day, a real venture capitalist from Nigeria will offer a 100% legitimate offer to you, and you'll turn them down, thinking that this is just another Nigerian trying to scam you out of your money. Then who will get the last laugh, eh?
