The Darfur scam

Tag: Scams2:15 pm

A new email scam from Sudan:

From Remiah Muzazah.

Dear One,
It is my pleasure to write you after much consideration, since i cannot be able to
see you face to face at first. Being the only son of my father, late Mr. Ahman
MUZAZAH from Darfur, Sudan (EA) I am 23 years of age. My father was limited
liability Diamond and Gold merchant in Darfur, Sudan before his untimely death.
After his business trip to abidjan to nagociate on a good investment business he
wanted to invest in abidjan. A week after he came back from abidjan, their was a
Fighting between government and rebels troops in Sudan’s western region of
Darfur,The fighting began in Febuary 2003, when ethnic African tribes revolted
against the Arab-led Sudanese government. Sudan’s President Omar Hassan al-Bashir
retaliated by unleashing brutal Arab militias, known as janjaweed, which have been
attacking rebels and civilians at the result of this my family was a victim.

I didn´t know that my parents was going to leave me, my mother died instantly but my
father died few days later (MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE) but before he gave
up the ghost,he quickly disclosed to me that he deposited sum of $9,000,000,00 US
Dollars (Nine Million u.s Dollars) in a Bank here in abidjan That the money was
meant for his Diamond and Gold company he wanted to establish in abidjan, he
instructed me to seek for a reliable and trust worthy business partner for my life
time investment abroad. Now I have succeeded in locating the Bank here in abidjan
also confirmed the deposit with most honest and confidentiality. Now I am soliciting
for your assistance to help me lift this money out from abidjan to your safe account
abroad so that we should invest it in any meaningful lucrative business in your
country because this is my only hope in life. I am willing to offer you 15% of the
total fund if only you can help me out of my present predicament. Awaiting anxiously
to hear from you so that we can discuss the modalities of this transaction. I await
your immediate response. Yours sincerely.Remiah Muzazah.
