These are amusing. This one is an 'obscured business suggestion'. Gott'a love the bad Engrish. I guess I am related to some General Mohammed Ali? I thought he was a boxer... go figure.

FROM: Liu Yan

Hong Kong,


THIS IS FOR YOUR ATTENTION

I sincerely ask for forgiveness for I know this may seem like a complete
intrusion to your privacy but right about now this is my best option of
communication. This mail might come to you as a surprise and the temptation
to ignore it as frivolous could come into your mind; but please consider it a
divine wish and accept it with a deep sense of humility

This letter must surprise you because we have never meet before neither in
person nor by correspondence,but I believe that it takes just one day to meet
or know someone either physically or through correspondence.

I got your contact through my personal search, you were revealed as being
quite astute in private entrepreneurship,and one has no doubt in your ability
to handle a financial business transaction. I am Liu Yan a transfer
supervisor operations in investment section in Bank of China Ltd. Secretariat
of the BOCHK Charitable Foundation 13/F. Bank of China Tower, 1 Garden
Road,Hong Kong I have an obscured business suggestion for you.Before the U.S
and Iraqi war our client General Mohammed Jassim Ali who work with the Iraqi
forces and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar
months, with a value of (I will disclose amount upon your reply) in my branch.

Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even early in the war,again
after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from
him,We later find out that General Mohammed Jassim Ali and his family had
been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.

After further investigation it was also discovered that General Mohammed
Jassim Ali did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including
the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time
he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So,
(I will disclose amount upon your reply) is still lying in my bank and no one
will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that, according
to the laws of my country at the expiration 3 years the funds will revert to
the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the
funds.

Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a
foreigner to stand as the next of kin to General Mohammed Jassim Ali so that
you will be able to receive his funds.I want you to know that I have had
everything planned out so that we shall come out successful.

I have contacted an attorney who will prepare the legal documents that will
back you up as the next of kin to General Mohammed Jassim Ali, all what is
required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your Full
Names, private phone number and Address so that the attorney can commence his
job. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in
for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of
probate in your favor for the transfer of the funds to an account that will
be provided by you with my guidance.There is no risk involved at all in the
matter as we are going adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare
all the necessary documents.

Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this
issue. Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account
we shall discuss the percentage issue on your reply.

If you are interested please send me your full names and current residential
address, and I will prefer you to reach me on my private and secure email
address below and finally after that I shall provide you with more details of
this operation.

Best Regards

Liu Yan

Published: October 30, 2009 07:25 ETLONDON, U.K. — Recently I received an email labeled "Strictly Confidential" from Dr. Bakare Tunde, who said he was astronautics project manager at Nigeria’s space agency. He also told me he was the cousin of the first African in space, Air Force Major Abacha Tunde, and that this poor intrepid astronaut had been stranded on a secret Soviet military station ever since the Soviet Union dissolved in 1990.

“He is in good humor,” read the email, “but wants to come home.” No wonder he was keen to hurtle back earthwards, Tunde told me his cousin had accumulated almost $15 million in pay. For the price of my bank account details, I could claim 20 percent and fly the brave chap home to collect my portion of the earnings and transfer the rest on to him like the good space-supporter that I was."


Nigeria space agency is no joke

I get these emails all the time to. One was from some General of the USA armed forces, declaring had found some odd million in Baghdad, and wanted to put it into an account for me to hold. I sent him a reply, asking him if he was for real, and serious. I never got a reply to my email. What a joke. Bruce.
