My dear friend,
I got your email address through the internet,so do not be surprised.
First of all let me sacrifice my life in this transaction ,by letting out this piece of information i am about to give to you.As a betrayal of this trust puts my life at stake.I have choosen this transaction to be strictly business,so that you would not think otherwise,as you would be rewarded for your assistance.
I am sheikh shehu musa mustapha,a business tycoon from iraq,presently in prison in iraq for the past four years,for my alledged assistance to the american government against my motherland iraq(treason),which i happen to know nothing about.My detractors have finally put me to shame,but i leave them to their own fate.
In july 11 1999,i was accused of assisting the american government as a spy against iraq, i am sure that the outside world has no knowledge this happening,since i did not in any way transact with the american government or any other government,if not i am sure my case would have been making news in the world ,as acase of violation of my fundamental human rights,which i have been deprived of since i have not stood trial since my incarcertation.
My companies assets have been seized, my numerous accounts frozen and as such my family have been living in abject in poverty as i, their breadwinner have been rendered useless in prison.As luck would have it against me,my wives are uneducated and my children too young to pull up a fight.
My dear friend,i do not want you to inform your western government yet,of my predicament,because i stand to loose my life and lives of my family,if that happens now.I am willing to loose my life but i want my family to live and tell the story of my life,since i do not even know my fate now.So please listen carefully and adhere to my instructions if you are willing to assist me.
In the year 2000,some of my trusted aides on my orders,successfully smuggled some of my money out of iraq,without the government knowledge.This money amounting to $61,340,000 was successfully smuggled and lodged with a security firm in holland.But my so called trusted aides as if they believe i am never going to make it out alive,eloped with $20,000,000 of this money,i leave them to their fate.However the documents backing the remaining money in the security firm in Holland was sent to me through my trusted friend Al Farouq,who knows nothing of the contents of the documents,but has kept it in safe hands.I cannot bear to see my family suffer in pain and lacks,so i am willing to sacrifice my life for them to live.
My friend ,all iwant you to do for me is to help me retrieve the money from this security company and secure it.All the documents would be sent to you once i am sure you are willing to assist me.Then i want you to send some amount from this money to my family through my friend Al Farouq,who would in turn help me smuggle them(my family) out of iraq to your civilized world,from where they can now after their safety has been guaranteed,tell the whole world about what is going on in iraq.
Whatever befalls me after then i am ready to take.
I am placing my life in your hands,so even if you are not willing to assist me,please do not let this story out,because it would mean you are killing me and my beloved family.
Iwould appreciate it if you send me your telephone#,since i am entitled to make just one call to my family once in every two weeks.But icannot provide you with any phone number,as the best and only way to contact me is through the internet,which we are provided with as a form of recreation in prison ,though under tight scrutiny,but not to worry the guards here have been friendly to me,besides they do not understand english.
If you can assist me in this transaction,i am offering to give you 20% of the money in the security firm,once retrieved,for your efforts,so apart from your good conscience,iam offering a reward.If i hear from you,i would there after furnish you with the neccesaryinformation.God bless you
Yours trully
Musa Mustapha.

Damn, I’ve had this address less than two months…

    I have cooked up a stock reply to these. (They usually come from Nigeria.)Dear Sir,Thank you for your kind offer, which interests me hugely.In view of the need for utmost confidentiality and discretion, and the need for delicacy and expertise in dealing with such a large sum, I have enlisted the aid of a trusted friend, who by virtue of his Government experience, is in a position to furnish valuable assistance to our efforts. Although it would be premature to reveal his identity at this time, I can personally vouch for his truthfulness and integrity, as well as his hospitality and generosity. I am sure that you will agree that having such a man in our corner is greatly to our advantage. Please be assured that he has agreed to accept a modest part of my own personal commission as his compensation, so his participation will entail absolutely no additional expense on your part. We are most enthusiastic about proceeding with this venture, and have therefore arranged a venue for face to face discussions to proceed at the earliest possible moment. A special, highly secure conference room, complete with the latest in recording equipment and other audio-visual aids, has graciously been placed at our disposal at his offices at 501 East Polk Street, in Tampa, Florida. Please call (813) 228-2636 to make the necessary arrangements. Ask to speak with Mr. Miranda. It will not be necessary for you to reserve hotel accommodations, as we will be delighted to put you up for the duration of your stay with us. I look forward to our meeting, and to having you as our honored guest.Warmest personal regards,John Wayne Miranda
