Subject: MOVEMENT OF FUNDS
Dear Sir,
Greetings to you and your family. I want you to read this mail
with a compassionate heart and understanding that any
action you take is geared towards rendering humanitarian
assistance to a man who is in distress with his family.
My name is Mr. Milton Teahjay, a Liberian and former Deputy
Minister of Information under President Charles Taylor. I
was his right hand man until a couple of weeks ago when I realised
that my entire life was in utmost danger after the assassination
of the Sports Minister in a helicopter crash.
I was responsible for the diamond deals with the
RUF rebel group of Sierra Leone. I was handling the diamond
sales on behalf of President Taylor who in turn supplies ammunition
to the rebels.
This is what the international community and United Nations
code-named: Conflict Diamond. It was while I was discharging
this duty that I diverted the sum of US$30,000,000.00
(Thirty Million United States Dollars) for myself.
I deposited the money contained in two trunk boxes in
a Security Company as artifacts to avoid prying eyes
in Accra, Ghana and traveled back to my country where I continued
with my duties.
I informed president Taylor that the United Nations Mission in
Sierra Leone (UNAMSL) seized the diamond consignment
and made report to the United Nations. It was based on this diamond
dealings involving President Taylor that the United Nations imposed
sanctions on Liberia recently.
My aim is to look for a trusted foreign partner outside
to help me move the fund out for investment. It is based
on my decision to move the fund out for investment that I am contacting
you to assist me in taking the funds to your country.
All you need do is to fly down to claim the two Boxes from
the Security Company and open a bank account through which the
money will be lodged before transfer into your nominated Bank account.
I am willing to compensate you with 30% of the total sum for your assistance
and want to let you understand that the future of myself and family
depends solely on this money .
In this transaction confidentiality is very essential for us
to achieve our goal. It is important that you maintain
utmost good faith and trust. You must also not circumvent
the transaction in any way.
In conclusion I will like you to understand that you shall bear
no risk whatsoever in this business and as such there is nothing
for you to be afraid of.
I await your swift response to this email.
Milton Teahjay.

ATTN: PRESIDENT / DIRECTOR,
I WISH TO INTRODUCE MYSELF TO YOU. I AM COL. JOHN MUGUH
(RTD) OF THE NIGERIAN ARMED FORCES. I WAS THE FORMER AID DE CAMP
(ADC) TO THE LATE MILITARY HEAD OF STATE, GENERAL SANI ABACHA FOR
FOUR YEARS AND I WAS VERY LOYAL TO HIM. OUTSIDE OFFICIAL HOURS,
WE WERE BEST OF FRIENDS. HE SHARED HIS SECRETS WITH ME. THE LATE
GENERAL RELIED SO MUCH ON ME. IT WAS DURING MY ACTIVE YEARS AS
HIS AID DE CAMP THAT I GOT TO MEET HIS VARIOUS FOREIGN PARTNERS
ALL OVER THE WORLD.
SHORTLY BEFORE THE GENERAL DIED, HE ENTRUSTED TO ME THE SUM OF
US$21.5 MILLION FOR SAFEKEEPING. THIS AMOUNT WAS TO BE SENT TO
HIS MISTRESS IN LEBANON TO LAUNDER FOR HIM. ON THE 8TH OF JUNE
1998, THE GENERAL DIED AND WAS BURIED ACCORDING TO MUSLIM RITES
ON THE SAME DAY.
I HAVE SINCE HAD THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY WITH ME STASHED
AWAY IN A PRIVATE SAFE IN MY HOUSE. I CANNOT SEND THIS
MONEY TO THE DEAD GENERALS MISTRESS ANY MORE. I INTEND TO KEEP
IT FOR MYSELF AND ADEQUATELY COMPENSATE ANY TRUSTED BUSINESS
PARTNER ABROAD WITH 20% OF THE TOTAL SUM FOR HIS ASSISTANCE AND
CO-OPERATION WITH ME TO MOVE THIS FUND OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
THE PRESENT CIVILIAN ADMINISTRATION COLLECTIVELY RETIRED NINETY-TWO
SERVING OFFICERS AND MYSELF A FEW WEEKS AGO. THIS MONEY IS NOT
SAFE WHERE IT IS KEPT ANY MORE BECAUSE THERE ARE INDICATIONS THAT
ALL THE RETIRED OFFICERS MIGHT HAVE THEIR ESTATES CONFISCATED AS
PART OF THE CURRENT SANITATION EXERCISE. ALREADY OUR VARIOUS PRIVATE
ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN FROZEN PENDING THE PERIOD OF INVESTIGATION.
I INTEND TO SAFEGUARD THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY ABROAD WITH A RELIABLE
FOREIGN BUSINESS PARTNER. THAT IS WHY I AM SOLICITING YOUR ASSISTANCE
AND CO-OPERATION AS REGARDS THIS BUSINESS. ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN
CONCLUDED WITH A FEW SECURITY COMPANIES AROUND THE WORLD TO RECEIVE
THIS MONEY IN CASH DEPENDING ON WHERE IS CONVENIENT FOR YOU.
PLEASE INDICATE YOUR WILLINGNESS TO ASSIST ME BY SENDING AN E-MAIL
WITH THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION: YOUR COMPANY NAME AND ADDRESS AND
YOUR PRIVATE TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS SO THAT I CAN CONTACT YOU
AND COMMENCE THE TRANSACTION IN EARNEST.
HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON.
GOD BLESS
COL. JOHN MUGUH (RTD)

SUCCESSFULLY, I WILL BE RELYING HEAVILY ON YOU TO ADVISE ME ON
THE BEST OPPORTUNITIES IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE.

SINCE THE DEATH OF GEN. ABACHA, AND THE SUBSEQUENT DISSOLUTION

WAS THE PERSON WHO ROPED GEN. OBASANJO INTO PRISON FOR A
FANTHOM COUP CHARGE AS HE NOW WANTS TO GET BACK AT US.
MY FATHER'S CLOSEST FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES HAVE DESERTED
AND BETRAYED US AND WE NO LONGER TRUST ANYONE. THEREFORE,
I AM REQUESTING FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE AND HELP TO MY FAMILY.
RECENTLY, MY FATHER CONFIDED IN ME ABOUT A SECRET DEPOSIT OF
USD 49,000,OOO,00 (FORTY NINE MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS) WHICH
HE MADE THROUGH DIPLOMATIC COURIER SERVICE TO A SECURITY
COMPANY BASED ABROAD AND PLACED ON HOLD BECAUSE OF LACK

DEAR Ebrahim
I got your contact through Ghana Chamber of Commerce Mines
and Agriculture. Your name was among some short listed company
agents in the above-mentioned organization.
I am Mr. Mohammed Ismaila Gwarzo the son of Hon. Ismaila
Gwarzo, former security adviser to the late Nigerian Head of
States General Sani Abacha.
Unfortunately, my father has been under persecution and serious
house arrest, where all his traveling documents and other essential
documents has been seized by the present President Olusegun Obasanjo,
contrary to the case which they claimed he committed for he may
be sentenced to life imprisonment.
During my father's tenure as security adviser to the late head
of states he secretly deposited a sum of $55,800,000.00 to
a private security vault in Accra Ghana, in custody of
my name although he declared the contents as gold and personal
effects for security reasons. Meanwhile, the whole family has mandated
me to use the money for the benefit of the entire family since
I am the only one that is not under persecution.
I would be grateful if you can assist in the remittance
of this fund by swift transfer into your account abroad for
the benefit of my entire family and for investment in your country.
I have taken refuge in Ghana to avoid persecution back home and
also our accounts both foreign and local have been frozen and
property confiscated by the government of Olusegun Obasanjo.
In addition to the unlawful arrest going on in my country, this
is an SOS message as I only rely on this money for survival, invariably. I
hope on your mercy, honesty and sincerity.
I would be glad if you can assist as my father's foreign
technical partner in the security company here in Ghana
and also assist me to invest this fund in any
viable investment in your country so that my family can be able
to start life again with this.
Right now, I am hoping to forward my education in your country
immediately after the successful transfer of this fund abroad with
your assistance. It was due to my family condition that made me
to stop my doctoring degree course at university of Nigeria, Nssukka.
(UNN).
Every modalities on how to invest this fund must be undertaking
by you, while because, I don't have any knowledge about business,
moreover, I am too young to handle such amount of money
in any way. Please note that this money is in
cash and I am prepared to offer you a negotiable commission
for your assistance. Be rest assured that this is 100%
risk free. The Nigerian government has no knowledge about
this money, including this country's government (Ghana) where
I have taking refuge.
Your urgent response would indicate your interest. Therefore,
I am seriously looking forward in receiving your quick response
soon.
God be with you and your family till we meet. Remember
I will not fail to furnish you with all the information and documents
relating to this money when you indicate your interest to be of
help to me.
Yours truly,
Mohammed Gwarzo

Essentially, we the entire inner circle of Abacha bedrock administration

Thus, to expatiated the overwhelming odds, the Nigeria

ATTN: THE PRESIDENT/CEO
It is my pleasure to request your assistance on this business proposition
which if pursued to its conclusion will be of immense benefit
to both of us. This request may seem strange but will crave
your indulgence and pray that you view it seriously.
My name is Col. Thierry Blamo of the Democratic Republic
of Congo. I am one of the close aids to the former president
of the Democratic Republic of Congo LAURENT KABILA of blessed
memory, may his soul rest in perfect peace.
Due to the military campaign of Laurent Kabila to force out the
rebels in my country, I was instructed by him (Late President Kabila)
to go to the Netherlands to purchase ARMS AND AMMUNITIONS worth
(US$23.5 million) Twenty Three Million Five Hundred Thousand United
States Dollars to fight the rebels.
The money was brought to Holland through Diplomatic means
and was deposited in a Diplomatic security company in
Holland. But unfortunately before I could collect the money
and purchase the Arms my Commander-in-Chief was assassinated
by one of his aids in a bloody shoot out.
I immediately contacted the cousin to the late President Kabila,
General Mbambi Muaka who is the only one who has knowledge of the
money presently in the Security Company in Holland. I was
able to come to a compromise with him and we have agreed to keep
it a secret and look for trust worthy partner who can help us put
claims to this funds because we can not front to collect the cash
since we are still in government service as Civil Servant and as
such are not allowed to own foreign account or
having such huge amount of money in our possession.
Most importantly now the safety and security of this funds will
be jeopardized if the money is not taken care of in time. In view
of this, I need a reliable and trustworthy foreign partner/national who
can assist me to move this money as the Beneficiary. My inability
to move this money out of the Netherlands is because I can not
risk my name been mentioned at all because that might spoil the
chances of getting the funds out of the Security Company.
Though we have not seen nor met each other, the information I
gathered from your country's chambers of Commerce and Industry
of your credibility has encouraged and convinced me that with your
assistance, this transaction will be properly handled with
modesty and of all honesty will end us with huge success within
two weeks from your reply. The money involved in question
is state funds and it is only known to you, the general and myself
hence the need for secrecy considering the security implications.
Please if you are willing to assist me to claim this fund and
finally move it out of the Netherlands, please feel free to contact
me through my EMAIL ADDRESS stated above. Also my partner
and I have earmarked 25% of the total sum for you for your assistance,
while the balance 75% will be for the General and me.
Please note you might be required to come down to the
Netherlands for inspection of the funds. I also
intend to visit your country soonest in order to inquire areas
of possible business investment which we look up to you
for professional advise.
Lastly, I shall be very glad to hear from you soonest so that
we can finalize this transaction as soon as possible.

and that of my mother, than the will of Allah.
I am Mohamed Deen Kamara the son of Captain Usman Kamara,
the former national security adviser to the former Head of State

I am writing you this letter at the time life seems to have reached
its end for my Mother and me.
My Father, who is now under arrest by the authority of my country,
has mandated my Mother and me to source for a credible
and reliable person overseas who can assist us in this
transaction.
My Father's problem is as a result of secret but serious investigation
into cases of embezzlement and illegal mining of diamonds that
was being carried out by public officers during Major. Koromah's
administration, according to the press release made by the present
government that more than US$2.7 billion dollars was looted from
the country's treasury.
Right now my Father is afraid that there exists a possible trace
to US$14 million dollars that he deposited with my name in
a security organisation in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire where
it was registered and declared as family treasures and
artifacts.
Hence he decided that we should source for a foreign business
associate who would assist in investing this fund. Please,
you are being contacted to assist in transferring this
money out of Africa to your account abroad for a joint
investment. We are presently in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire for this
transaction and hope to hear from you immediately for more information's,
this transaction should be treated with utmost confidentiality.
Meanwhile kindly send to us your acceptance reply and other details

FOR YOUR KIND ATTENTION,
RE: REQUEST FOR MUTUALLY BENEFITTING ENDEAVOUR.
I humbly crave your indulgence in sending you this mail,
if the contents does not meet with your personal and business ethics,
I apologize in advance.
I am barrister Phillips Emovon ( attorney at law), I represent
Alhaji Ishmaila Gwarzo estates. Alhaji Gwarzo was the
chief security adviser of the then military leader of
this country (Nigeria) in the person of Late General
Sani Abacha who died on the 8th of June 1998.
With the advent of a new democratic dispensation in the country
under the leadership of Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo (Rtd), my client
has come under severe persecution due to the sensitive
position he held in the last military regime, presently he is under
house arrest restricted only to the confines of his village.
The main purpose of this mail is to intimate you of a business
proposal that might be of interest to you. My client has informed
me of the existence of funds deposited with a security
company abroad.
This fund came about as part of security votes that were allocated
to my client's portfolio during his tenure as chief security adviser
to the then president. What happened was that he had part of the
funds transferred from the vaults of the Central Bank Of Nigeria
to this security outfit with the aim of purchasing arms and ammunitions
for the personal security outfit of the then president.
But before the purchase could take place the president died. my
client has decided to keep this for himself as all his properties
has been confiscated by the present regime. But due to his incarceration he
cannot travel out and effect the change of possession
to his benefit.
I have been mandated by my client to
source for a foreign partner that can help him facilitate
the change of possession. the deposit certificate and
the code needed for the execution of this endeavour
are in my possession. my client is also well disposed towards
reaching an agreement with you that will be at par with the help
required of you.
The funds in question is USD33.6M (Thirty-Three Million, Six Hundred
Thousand United States dollars Only). Should this proposition be
of interest to you, you can reach me through my e-mail address
so that we can go through the rudiments of this endeavour.
I remain most obliged.

ROBERT OLANIPAKU
OLANIPAKU NOMINEES
Plot 33 Nicholas Crescent, V/I.
Lagos-Nigeria.
robertolanipaku3@yahoo.com
Sir,
The purpose of this proposal is not to bring any embarrassment to you
as we have never met, but to seek your utmost understanding and
assistance in the issue I am about to explain to you in this mail.
As you can see above, my name is Robert Olanipaku, and I am the
principal of the above named law firm here in Lagos Nigeria.
You see, I have an issue of a very sensitive circumstance which
I wish to confide to you. One of my clients,
and of course, my major client who happens to be the chief
security officer {CSO} to the late military dictator of the nation
{Gen. Sani Abacha} who died on July 1998 on active service
as the then head of state, his name Hamza Al-Mustapha called
to confide an issue to me.
Al-Mustapha is presently detained for charges of acute human right
violations, and embezzlement of public fund leveled against him
and the son of the late General {His Master}.
An inner house information has revealed that the duo are likely
to face life imprisonment for the charges against them which they
are likely to be convicted for. My client Al-Mustapha got
this information somehow and called to brief me of a security
trunk which he deposited with a trust company here in
Nigeria before his demise.
According to him, the trunk contains the cash sum of US$35,000,000
which the trust company does not know about yet, as it was declared
as family's jewelries and personal documents. Also according to
him, security measures were taken to disguise the content of the
trunk so that no one knows exactly what is inside. He said he disguised
the bills as negative papers which he said are from some security
photographs taken at the presidential villa.
Now that his chances of being set free from the allegations against
him are rare, he called me to assist him in securing the the fund,
which of course is the only hope of the family { His two wives,
and nine children}. After much deliberation however,
I managed to convince him to endorse a change of beneficiary for
the deposited trunk, this will enable the new beneficiary put
an application for withdrawal of the trunk.
In the light of this, I decided to contact you to assist us in
this transaction. The plan is to change the beneficiary of the
consignment into your name, forward you with all the necessary
documents to this effect and have you contact the trust company
for withdrawal of the trunk as the new/legal beneficiary.
You will request that the consignment be delivered to
you at your nominated destination. After proper identification
and verification as the new legal beneficiary, the company will
release the consignment to you. The company may also take care
of handling of the consignment until it is delivered at your
domain or any of your nominated destination, as you may advise.
My client lost almost a hundred million US dollars, frozen in
Swiss banks and in different personal accounts on the instruction
of the present democratic government of the federal republic of
Nigeria. The plan to move this fund out of the country was
informed by a joint decision by the family of my client to invest
this money abroad, probably into commercial real estate, at least
to shelter their money.
Having gone through this explanation, and considering the fate
of this family he is about to leave behind, I ask a simple question: Should
my client suffer for offences allegedly committed by him master?,
should even his family be left, abandoned and even refused to be
heard, by a government which is prosecuting their sole bread winner
for human right violations?
To freeze an account of a fulltime house wife who never knew anything
in the government, yet denied the basic requirements of life is
a crime to humanity, and human rights violation at its peak. Yet
my client's family is presently denied of telephone access etc,
hence denying them the freedom of communication and association.
It is for this reason that I sincerely solicit your utmost assistance
to move this fund into your care abroad, on behalf of the family
for safe keeping, subject to when they are ready to manage the
fund. It is also expected that you will represent
this family in brokering the purchase of profitable properties
in your country or the neighbouring, so they can always
fall back to these properties when the heat on the family reduces.
My client has also resolved to reward you handsomely with 5% of
the total amount on the successful conclusion of each transaction.
I shall also be 100% available to provide you with the necessary
assistance and guidelines you may require on the course of this
transaction.
I have just entrusted the details of this fund and the fate of
this helpless family into your conscience for safe keeping. I
also hope to have offered you a great opportunity to make
yourself some good money, I believe I have. Should
the above transaction appeal to you therefore, I hereby urge you
to mail me your response immediately for further details on immediate
commencement of this transaction.
You will also be doing us a lot of good to guide this information
with immense confidentiality, even if this transaction does not
appeal to you.
Hoping to hear from you soon.
Kind regards,
Robert Olanipaku.
