Here's a new one I got today:
Dear Friend,
My name is Mr.Tony Anthony 41 years of age I am
compelled to contact you as result of a lifetime
business relationship I wished to establish with you
honorable self. I am a God fearing gentleman of the
confidence that God will certainly create an enabling
environment in our midst through which his name will be
glorified.
I am the Eastern regional Auditor General of the
International commercial Bank Of Ghana. I am a
Christian. I write you this letter in good faith
believing both of us will work with one accord for the
realization of this project.. I am in control of the
sum of Twelve million, Eight Hundred and Fifty Thousand
US Dollars ($12,850,000.00) that was an excess of
profit made by our Eastern region branch office in the
last quarters of the year 2006.
Due to the present political position of this country,
I have carefully placed the afore said fund in an
Escrow Call Deposit Account and did not declare this to
my head office, Can I really trust you to hold this
money for me until I arrive your country and pick it up
myself? This is where the problem lies. You will be
entitled to 35% of the total money as your commission
if you will be human enough to work with me. If you
accept my offer you can contact me immediately
All I need is your formidable current account where the
money will be moved accordingly. I will discretely give
you all the information concerning the account and the
deposit so that you can apply to my headquarters
directly for the re-location of the money. There is
practically no risk involved; it will be a bank-to-bank
transfer. I hope you understand my situation.
Thank you and God bless.
Very truly yours,
Mr.Tony Anthony
I would love to write back to him and tell him exactly where I think he should put that money, but I wouldn't respond to one of these vile people.
I find it hard to understand why there is no place within our government to report these scammers to. That just doesn't seem right. I know mail fraud is against the law. Maybe they haven't brought the laws up to date as far as the internet goes, but who who do we discuss that with?
