Fraud email example:
From: Willis <will_ar_rahmani2005@yahoo.com> (may be fake)
Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2005 11:23:12 +0100
Subject: Regards/Favour.
Dear sir/madam;
it is quite absurd that i should be contacting you by email for the proposal i have, especially, in this era of unending unsolicited mail (Spam) moreso, when we have neither met nor spoken before. Please pardon the means of communication. I got your email address from the chamber of commerce and industry and also from the international stock exchange commission directory. Further run of your profile indicated an impeccable record which prompted my choosing to contact you.
I am Mr. Wilson ar-Rahmani a stock broker with the Stock Exchange Commission of my country. Recently, the National Assembly (Senate) passed into law a bill giving the Executive Arm the authority to convert all unclaimed dividends between 1983 to date in both the public and financial sector of the economy to the ownership of the nation thus all such dividends be credited to the consolidated Federation account as a means of generating revenue for the execution of government projects (see Vanguard newsreel of 10th june 2004). Consequently, the Finance Ministry in a memo dated 14th june 2004 to the President of the Stock exchange Commission directed that all such unclaimed dividends be declared and forwarded to the office of the director of public utilities of the federation within a stipulated time.
By my position as a stock broker, i have so many of such unclaimed dividends that i manage and sequel to this law, i tried making contact with the stock owners both locally and internationally though, some responded and have started making claims to their dividends, but others have not responded. On further investigation, i discovered that those yet to respond have either died or that the public/private enterprise by a decree of the military government of 1989 have been liquidated. The bulk of the shares available to me now belongs to Late Mrs Louisa Tara Arevalos a contractor with a multinational corporation in Nigeria who died in a motor accident.
The above explains my reason for contacting you as i propose that you assit me in claiming these dividends by applying as either the original owner (depositor) or her next of kin. All the documentary evidence of deposit are in my possession which i will be forwarding to you as soon as you accept my proposal. The total stock available to me is valued at 23,700,000.00 ( Twenty three million seven hundred thousand) British Pound Sterling which on approval will be credited into any bank account of your choice any where in the world while i have proposed the sharing ratio at 30% for you and the remaining 70% for me.
There is no risk involved especially with my position as the original stock broker of the unclaimed dividend beneficiaries moreover, we shall employ the services of an attorney registered as a probate/estate legal practicioner with my country's National Judicial Commission to assit us in processing all the relevant documents of claim to ensure that we do not breach the law of the nation on unclaimed dividends. Should you therefore accept this proposal of a mutually beneficial transaction, you shall be required to make an official application to the Stock Exchange Commission stating that due to ill-health and the unconducive atmosphere in my country during the military era you returned back to your country and was only recently notified by your stock broker of the latest development hence your application. In fact i will provide you with the specimen of the application.
Thank you for threating this matter as very urgent and confidential while your indication of interest should be via my private email address: will_ar_rahmani2005@nyc.com or wr1@irangate.net
Regards,
Wilson ar-Rahmani
