I am jacob david only son of late Mr. and Mrs. david Morgan . My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan , the economic capital of Ivory coast, my father was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outings on a business trip .
 
My mother died when I was a baby and since then my father took me so special. Before the death of my father on october 2006 in a private hospital here in Abidjan he secretly called me on his bed side and told me that he has the sum of Six million,five  hundred thousand United State Dollars. USD ($6,500,000.00) left in fixed / suspense account in one of the prime bank here in Abidjan ,that he used my name as his only son for the next of Kin in depositing of the fund. He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where i will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose.

Dear, I am honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways:
(1) To provide a bank account into which this money
 would be transferred to.

of the total sum as compensation for your effort/
input after the successful transfer of this fund into
your nominated account overseas.
 
Furthermore, you indicate your options towards assisting me as I believe that this transaction would be concluded within fourteen (14) days you signify interest to assist me. Anticipating to hear from you soon.
 
Thanks and God bless.
 
Best regards,
Mr jacob david.




...WOW sounds great. 15% of 6.5 mill or $975k, that will bankroll me for at least a few months playing 3-6 omaha hi lo limit.  Far be it for me to take advantage of a guy who has suffered such misfortune, but, well they raised us greedy on the gold paved streets of west london, so I'm going to up the stakes.







Hello Mr Jacob,

Thank you for your correspondance. It sounded intriguing! I would like to congratulate you as your english is remarkably good.

I received an offer a while ago from a nigerian businessman, and was poised to release my bank details but a close friend alerted me to the notion that nigerian businessman cannot be trusted to conduct multimillion pound deals with total strangers over email.

I found this shocking!

In england a man's word is his bond. I once gave a vagrant ten pounds under the condition it be spent on a good meal and some blankets to keep him warm. He promised me this and it being england I took this man at his word. Later on I spied the same vagrant lying on the street inebriated, surrounded by several tennants super strength cans, singing "I am a little goblin and i like a little gobblin'" at the top of his voice. Clearly he had spent my funds on furthering his debauchery.

Outraged at the betrayal I demanded my money back and when he responded by vomiting on my shoes I bitch slapped him multiple times till he handed over the 27p in his possession. Small return on my investment but at least he learnt his lesson!

I trust a man's word holds similar value in your fine country of the Ivory Coast. In fact I am a close friend of a star from your country, a certain Didier Drogba. I say close friend, in fact i met his sister once, and have watched him play on tv a few times, but you can see from the way he strikes the ball so sweetly, he is a man of honour and I would expect honourable intentions from anyone i enter into business with.

Now here is the crux of the matter....I see you have promised me 15% of the 6.5 million dollars (US) that you inherited in return for my safeguarding of your funds and to provide education and residency within england.

Now, as regards education, I think we could arrange this very easily. I have an old copy of endyclopedia brittanica which I would be happy to lend to you. Some pages are missing but mostly these are concerning mettalurgy and I think it may be a few years in england before you require information about the miscible properties of molten copper and iron. You should learn all you need to from this book.

Residency-wise, I believe the government are clamping down on immigration as part of their get tough policy. In order to dissuade the vice-like clamp of the immigration authorites from removing you from the country once you arrive, I will arrange for you to stay at the bottom of my garden.

 I have a small wendy house there. Whilst this is primarily designed for 6 year old children, I think you will find it quite advanced. It comes complete with many facilities including a Fisher Price "My First Oven", a small plastic chair and even a stuffed toy with one eye missing we call Simon the Cyclops. You may find the winter nights a tad chilly but cuddle up to Simon and the time will surely whizz by!

So with these details taken care of, there is only the small matter of the money. Of course I am happy to send you my bank details through immediately but I think as I am sorting out most of the arrangements, I would require a slightly higher percentage of the money.

You have offered me 15% of the 6.5 million dollars (US). IInstead I would like to propose a figure of 99.5% of the monies as renumeration for my efforts. If you can agree with this request I will immediately send my bank details and we can begin the business in hand!

Please let me know your response as soon as possible Mr Jacob.

Thanks for you help and i look forward to our future business.


Yours sincerely,

P S Taker

you could be passing the oppertunity of a lifetime .I think you should reconsider.

[Mango99]

Lol awesome response

Me and my business partners once spoke to a 419 fraudster on skype for over an hour, transferring him to and from phones pretending to be a total of 8 different people in the same company (between the 3 of us transferring the calls). I recorded the conversation too. We took the piss relentlessly for the whole hour, without him picking up on a single piss-take lol

Great fun Good luck with the reply and further fun to be had! Please update us on this thread with his reply!

[JungleCat03]

LOL, he responds!

Looks suspiciously like a stock response though, simply cut and pasted. Hmmm think he should really be a little more focused on me. I mean, he's going to be living in my garden shortly!

On the plus side, he has sent me some information about himself.Lovely. And he has increased his offer. Cool. Although not quite to the level i require. He also wants me to come over the the ivory coast, probably for a good old chinwag and some bushmeat. Wellll, not SO keen on that, I'm a busy kipper and not sure they would have 24 hour access to a broadband internet connection.

Oh well, time to employ my old skills as a contract negotiator and see if we can come to some agreement.

Here goes!

From Jacob David.
 




OK here goes.


Dear Mr Jacob,

Thanks for your prompt response!

You certainly are an admirable businessman. I admire your efficiency and I'm sure this will make our negotatiations run very smoothly!

Now firstly may I thank you for sending through official documentation concerning your father's death and showing the existence of the money as below.

I have had a legal team examine the documentation and they have confirmed its validity. I am sorry for your father's loss but is seems you are indeed a wealthy man!

Although I had no need of proof as I trust the word of a man who sends random e-mails to people he has never met to arrange inter-continental transfers of vast sums of money, it is re-assuring to receive this!

A couple of things struck me which I'd like to address.

Firstly I see you have raised the figure from an initial 15% of the monies to 25%. Whilst I appreciate you are making the effort to find some common ground, I really find myself unable to accept this figure.

However as we have created quite a rapport, I would be churlish not to show some good faith, so I confirm I am willing to lower my initial request for 99.5% of the total monies to 99.1%. Please confirm this is acceptable.


"Religion : ..........................................christianity
Type of Person :................................. Humanity
Do you :  Drink     .............................       ocassionally
Do you. Smoke    ......................................       No"

I know this may sound harsh but I do have a few requirements of people who I do business with.

I see you are a man of humanity who drinks occasionally and doesn't smoke. I thought no less! However the only people I can do business with must be

a) Chain smokers (I'm sure it would be possible to take up the habit. In england we have now cured cancer so there is no need to worry about harmful side effects. It is considered both attractive and desirable to smoke heavily and in fact our very own Queen Elizabeth smokes 40 superkings a day now)

b) Heavy drinkers(there is a vast drinking culture in england and anyone who doesn't do so is simply cast aside as weak and unable to hold their booze. I need you to confirm that you will shortly be imbibing at least one half litre of 40% proof spirits such as Jack daniels daily before we can continue discussion. Thanks)

c) They must join my religion, the TOTE ALK UNTS. Before you protest, i realise as a christian you would be loathe to give up your current beliefs but I think they will sit happily beside those of my religion. There are literally thousands of TOTE ALK UNTS all over the world and the religion grows on a daily basis.

There is no ceremony or invocation procedure required. In fact just by sending me this email you have shown yourself to be a TOTE ALK UNT so I would thank you from the bottom of my heart and ask if you could just confirm your commitment in in your next email with the following words "I am certainly a TOTE ALK UNT", we can continue our business transaction. Thanks in advance.

Ok, So our business deal moves ever closer to completion. I am thrilled at the progress we are making!

Now you have requested a few things of me, notably my phone number, passport, address and fax number. Obviously I'm massively keen to furnish you with these sensitive personal details, given that we have now exchanged 2 emails but I have a few problems sending them through immediately.

Firstly I do not currently have a phone or passport. I find phones unnecessary in today's modern age and when I'm not conversing with people over email I make all other correspondance via carrier pigeon.

Passport-wise, I do not currently hold a valid passport as I sent my last one in the post to another contact in Africa (that shady nigerian I mentioned earlier) and he has failed to return it as of yet. Honestly, you just can't trust some people! Unfortunately this also means I am unable to visit you in your lovely country of Ivory Coast.

However given your good faith in providing some of your personal details, I feel I should give you some information and personal details to allow you to feel you can trust me implicitly as I now trust you.

Height...........................6`10
Weight..........................260 kilos
Appearance...................dishevelled
ROI in 20$ poker stts......43%
Favourite poker hand......7 4 of diamonds

I have also enclosed a photograph of myself so you might better identify me for future transactions.



I hope this helps!

I am poised and ready to complete and our business transaction. I thank you for you courtesy and look forward to your future response.


Yours sincerely

[weller001]

http://www.419eater.com/  - is worth a look

I read a book called 'gangs' (nothing to do with Ross 'utlimate force' kemp.

Apparently people actually fall for this scam regurlarly, there was one case of a man that went out to meet the contact in nigeria. He was kidnapped, and taken to a cashpoint, and ordered at gunopint to take out as much money as he could - he refused.

They found his body in a field near the airport, with the burnt remains of a car tyre around his neck.

Your correspondence is awesome! Definitely worthy of a spot on 419eater.com.

Surely there is no way he can fall for your latest email, especially with the mugshots.com photo. Who is that btw? Some serial killer?

Keep us up to date! Classic thread!
