New Take On Nigeria Scam

Got this one in my email today.... Looks like they are changing tactics a bit.

Dear Friend,

I am interested in purchasing properties as a means of investment abroad. I do not know too well about how to purchase property in your country.

I will need your help to do this. I need you to help me look for
Properties like; Homes, lands and other business ventures for sale.

I am proposing to invest the sum of $15,000,000 USD for this. I do not
know if you will be of help to me. Let me give you a brief information about my personality; I was once worked with the Government here as a Local Government Chairman here in my country Nigeria, but now, I am into private local shipping.

Business is not moving to well and things are crumbling, the Economy
here is bad and above all the government are too inquisitive.

I am 53 my wife 42, I have 4 children as well as most of my cousins stay with me and probably would come around with me. I have a sister that is presently a doctor and also a brother that is a Teacher. I do hope all now you know a little about me, so also I want to know about your very self.

My need to acquire these properties is urgent, as I am planing to move
out of my country with my family down to your country. I want you to also look for a good home (mini estate) Where me and my family will live in.

Please do write me back, so that we can proceed,I will need your phone
and fax numbers to make contact with you if I am unable to accessmy emails.

Best Reagrds,

David Tunde

IT"S A SCAM!?!?

Damn. Now what do i do with all these Nigerians in the "mini-estate" in my basement?

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Based on the letter I received they should be on their way here any day. :laugh:
 
MAJOR PENGUIN! Good lord.

Funny, too, because I saw someone talking on here about responding to one of these guys and leading them on so yesterday I had one spam message in the spam folder and I used a feux email account I have to reply. Nothing yet, but if anything funny comes of it, you guys will be the firsts to know.
