I got your contact from the diary of my late my husband who died on January 2000 as a result of air crash involving Kenyan Airways. My source of your contact gave me the courage and confidence to rely on you for assistance. On the day of his arrest he confided to me all his foreign investiment particulars ,he quickly asked me to escape to IVORY COAST were he made a deposit of a trunk box with a TRUSTED SECURITY COMPANY containing a sum of USD 28.5 MILLION DOLLARS. According to my husband, this money was the income accrued from Mining. Co-operation’s over draft and minor sales. Before the peak of the civil war between the rebels forces of Major Paul Koroma and the combined forces of ECOMOG peace keeping operation that almost destroyed my country, following the forceful removal from power of the civilian elected President Tejan Kabbah by the rebels. My husband had already made arrangement for me and my children to be evacuated to Abidjan, Cote d’ Ivoire with the CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITE he made with the SECURITY COMPANY in Abidjan through the aid of UN evacuation team.

As a result of my husbnad’s death , and with the news of my husband’s youger brother involvement in the air crash in January,2000 dashed our hope of survival. The untimely deaths caused my daughter’s heart failure and other related complications of which she later died in the hospital after we must have spent a lot of money on her ending of last year .

Here's another one for the collection: -"To: The President
From: AB Sanni
Assalam Aleikum,
I wish to seek your assistance in a matter that needs trust secrecy and confidentiality.
I am A. B. Sanni, a close confidant to Mohammed Abacha, son of late General Sani Abacha, former head of state Federal Republic of Nigeria, who ruled from November 17th 1993 to June 8th 1998 when he died suddenly in office.
Since then, the family as a whole has been facing all sorts of harassments, by security operatives/agents of the new Head of State (General Obasanjo) who served a jail term under my friend's father for coup offence. Even my friend's old mother has been detained and tortured many times. Mohammed is now being charged for military decision of his father's regime e.g. the murder cases of political opponents. These offences he knows nothing about, as he was only the Head of State's son, not even a military man nor was he in the government.
His father ruled for five years during which period he acquired financial gains and property all over the world from his share of Crude Oil Sales as the Head of State. Now, the family has lost all assets (property and money in Nigeria) to the new government. Ref. News Watch Magazine publication of 11th to 18th October, 1999. However, they have hidden records in a secret name with the Nigerian Insurance Deposit Corporation to access a coded trust accounts in Europe valued at Three Hundred and Thirty Eight Million United States Dollars only ($338,000,000). Mohammed is currently being detained and tortured to sign off accounts of his late father and he has done that but not the coded trust accounts in the name of certain government multinational contractors that I can not disclose now.
THE AIM OF THIS LETTER IS TO REQUEST YOUR ASSISTANCE TO SECURE THIS ACCOUNT IN A SAFE/CONFIDENTIAL BANK AND HELP INVEST THE MONEY FOR OUR MUTUAL BENEFIT. We also expect to use some of our share of the money to relocate ourselves to another safe Country because right now Nigeria is not safe and we will like to go into hiding overseas if we can escape.
If you are interested in helping secure the accounts please contact me immediately by email "absanni@excite.com", so that we can arrange an initial meeting in a neighboring country, thus you can present your investment program and projects for our assessment. Thereafter we will sign an MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) binding this business relationship and immediately entrust you to access the coded trust accounts in Europe valued at Three Hundred and Thirty Eight Million United States Dollars only ($338,000,000).
We will depend on your business experience to make sure that we get maximum returns on our investment with you.
PLEASE NOTE THAT IN THE PROCESS OF SECURING THE CODED TRUST ACCOUNT YOU ARE LIKELY TO INCURE EXPENSES BUT IT WILL BE PAID BACK ONCE WE SECURE THE DEPOSIT. IT IS 100% SAFE FOR YOU AND YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.
Just forward via email your full name, phone number, fax number and bank details as the new beneficiary to enable us make formal application for the transfer of ownership to you.
We look forward to your helping us, but if you are not interested kindly discard this letter and still maintain its confidentiality.
Ma-Salam.
For Mohammed Abacha"

With all the money that these African nations have got stashed away in secret bank accounts, why don't they just pay off their national debt?
-- Sue Denim (s.denim@aol.net), August 01, 2002.
Because they're spending it all on Blissium.
