Dear, Sir/Madam.
Please forgive my approach if this message comes to you as suprise and may offend your personality for requesting for your assistance in a business transaction without your prior consent.
My name is Mrs.Nuchoni Yaoprasirth.I am from Bangkok-Thailand and i live in Dubai-UAE. where i work with the National Bank of Dubai here in United Arab Emirates (UAE). As the chief auditor for the year 2004/2005. Last year during our auditing section for the year 2004. We discovered an abandoned deposit of Six Million Five hundred thousand United States Dollars (US$ 6.5, 000.000.00). Which belongs to a late customer of the bank who died eight years ago in a plane crash in an island in Iran. The name of the island is, Kish Island located in Iran and it is about 45 minutes to UAE. By air.
I have investigated the deposit file and records and have discovered that the late depositor of the abandoned funds is an American citizen who is an oil merchant and a contractor here in the UAE. The name of the late depositor is, Late Engr. Armen A. Seginian. And his next of kin has not been located since the death of this late customer of the above named bank here in the UAE.
Why I contacted you is for you to stand as the next of kin to the late depositor of this funds to enable us move this funds out of the bank here in Dubai-UAE. To a secured account in your country where we will both meet together to share the funds.
I will computerize and change all the information's in the next of kin column in the deposit record to tally with yours and I will use an insider in the bank to work this out, I have a national of UAE. Who is the head of credit and account department in the bank and he is having secret affairs with me, we stand the chance to make this deal a success and I have given him a brief information's about my intentions and he is also willing to do the deal with us, you will not be required to come to the bank personally, I will make an arrangements for a financial attorney who will be representing you here in Dubai-UAE for the proceed.
I will offer you 20% of the total money while 10% will be used to cover any expenses which we will both incure in the in the cost of securing the abandoned funds and 70% will be for me and my partner in the bank 35% each.

Got a new one:

From Mr. Mohammed ubah.
Financial Consultant,
24, Aboudul Diouff Road,
Dakar Senegal.


Sir

I write to you based on a request by an investor and his need for investment/funding in your country. My name is Mr. Mohammed Ubah, a financial consultant and I work with a reputable financial services firm. My company most times represents the interests of very wealthy investors. Due to the sensitivity of the position they hold in thier society and the unstable investment environment of their country, they evacuate majority of their funds into more stable economies and developed nations where they can get good yield for their money. I was recently approached by a Reserved Client, whom I had personally worked with a few years ago with a proposal. What he request is an individual such as yourself, who will be willing to receive money on his behalf abroad, and put it to good use for a period not exceeding 6 years for a start.
The client has of! fered these terms:
1. 10% commission paid to me and my foreign partner of the total funds successfully evacuated. The funds in question are over $35,500,000 Million USDollars.
2. The funds will be used by the foreign partner for six years as a loan without any interest. That is, you do not pay any interest on the money but you give the client 50% of all profits after tax that accrued from the use of the funds. If these terms are agreeable to you, kindly let me know and I will provide you with all necessary information and procedures involved. send me your phone number to enable me talk to you first.

Best regards,
Mr. Ubah.
