Default Post Woah... I got this strange email.

I don't know what to think of this. Hehe, i'm not sure what profile he's talking about. Anyways, it sounds like total BS to me.

JOHN SESE SEKO
TOGO-LOME

Dear Sir,

I know this proposal might come to you as a surprise.
My knowing you is an ark of God.

I was convinced as to solicit for your support and
assistance after reading your profile.
I am K. Sese-Seko, the son of the former
president of Zaire now Democratic Republic of Congo
former president of Zaire now Democratic Republic of
Congo(President Mobutu Sese-Seko) my father was
violently overthrown from the Office on May 13,1998 by
forces loyal to rebel leader LAURENT KABILA

Following the overthrown which forced my father into
exile to Morocco in North Africa where he later died.
With the overthrown and unfortunate death of my
father, the Joseph Kabila's Government seized all my
fathers Bank Account and family business invested in
some African Countries and that has rendered the
family
helpless. Recently, our family house in Switzerland
was auctioned by Kabila Government and the proceed was
repatriated to the same Government. With this
development, the family has empowered me to seek for
any honest and God fearing individual who will assist
in transferring the huge amount of US$45 million to a
less tax account overseas.

I have deposited this money with a private Security
and Finance Trust Company in Lome-Togo one of the
African Countries as GOLD DUST. This money is part of
the fund set aside by my father for the purchase of
arms and ammunitions worth US$60million through
independent arm dealers in Russia which some of it
(US$15m has used during the power tussle between my
father and Kabila. I was arrested and detained when
Joseph Kabila discovered that I am signatory to
President Mobutus account in switzerland.

I was smuggled out of detention with the
help of my close friends who are now serving under
President Joseph Kabila. I escaped from the Country
through the Congo river with the help of fishermen. I
am now residing temporarily in Lome-Togo. Now that
Kabila has died. He was assassinated on January 16th
2001, his son (Joseph Kabila) has taken over the
Government. The state of the Government is still in
fear.

All I want from you is to come to Lome-Togo, West
Africa, where we will hold a meeting and proceed to
the Security Company where you will see the money
yourself and you assist to negotiate for the transfer
of the fund into your overseas Bank Account, this
transaction will not take more than 2-3days from your
arrival date. The family has resolve that 25% will be
your share for your assistance in this purpose and
other assistance you will be given in this regard. 5%
will be mapped out to pay local and International
expenses which may be incurred in the process of
securing this money. 70% is for the family Financial
needs and for investment overseas with your
comprehenssive advice. If my proposal are Ok, you are
required to forward your reply through my email box.

Upon receipt of your favourable response, I will
advice the Security Company to change the Beneficiary
right to your name for easy transfer of the into your
Your account overseas.

Please, feel free to ask any question and seek for
explanations if required.

Best regards,

JOHN SESE SEKO

If I were to be reading that for my first time, I wouldn't know what to believe. I would have made sure to do some form of research on it before replying and I would have gotten excited if it were all supported by my research. Now I know better. Peeps don't just email you like that and ask you to deal with millions of dollars....its BS.

Default Post It's Real!!!!!

I got this email and went to my travel agent and booked the 1st flight over there that I could get. Upon my arrival John met me at the airport and proceeded to tell me of the role I would play in his plan. I have to admit my skepticism at first was great but John assured me that there was no catch and that I would be paid a lump sum of $250,000US dollars to help with his cause. I gave him my account number at my bank and signed over a power of attorney to my account and he transferred $5,250,000 to my account, the 250 was for me. The money was in my account for a couple of months and then withdrawn. No harm done, its not like I had that much money to start with so whats the risk??? Now I have a new Mercedes and a condo.. Sometimes it pays to keep an open mind...
