SCAM INFORMATION COMPILED BY LONNY
RHODES
By Lonny Rhodes
Dear Editor,
Thank you for your prompt reply. I am going to provide you with a copy of
the letters that I received. In them you will find the phone number and
fax number of the initiators of this scam. They have put their name in but
I am assuming that the name is a fake. I am also providing you with the
phone number in Quebec Montreal Canada. I would like to expose these
people to the Nigerian Government, the USA Government, and the Canadian
Government. Is there any way you can do a reverse lookup on the phone
numbers? Maybe find the names of the individuals that are setting things
up.
First Letter:

Subject Line: Urgent Assistance

ATTN.: THE MANAGING DIRECTOR / C. E. O.
REQUEST FOR URGENT (CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP OF THE TRANSFER OF
US$45,560,000.00 (FORTY FIVE MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED AND SIXTY THOUSAND
UNITED STATES DOLLARS ONLY).
I hope this letter will not embarrass you since we have not had any
previous communication. I got your reference from your country's trade
department under private enquiry that is not related to my aim of writing
you this letter and went further to have it confirmed by the Nigeria
Exports Promotion Council(NEPC).
I, on behalf of my other colleagues from different Federal Government of
Nigeria owned parastatals decided to solicit your assistance as regards
the transfer of the above stated amount into your bank account. This fund
arose from the over-invoicing of various contracts awarded in my
parastatals to certain foreign contractors some time ago.
We as holders of official positions in various parastatals, were mandated
by this new civilian government to scrutinize all payments made to certain
foreign contractors by the past Military Government and we discovered that
some of the contracts they executed were grossly over-invoiced, either by
omission or commission. Also we discovered that the sum of $65,560,000.00
(Sixty-Five Million, Five Hundred and Sixty Thousand United States Dollars
Only) was lying in a suspense account, although the foreign contractors
were fully paid their entitlements after executing the said contracts. We
all agreed that the over-invoiced amount be transferred (for our own use)
into a bank account provided by a foreign partner, as the code of conduct
of the Federal Civil Service does not allow us to operate foreign
accounts.
However, we have succeeded in transferring some of these money, precisely
US$20,000,000.00 (Twenty Million United States Dollars Only) into a
foreign account in GENEVA (SWITZERLAND). But unfortunately, the provider
of the account has severed all forms of contacts with us as he has refused
to adhere to our earlier mutual agreement insisting that the total amount
be paid into his nominated bank account before disbursement will take
effect. If for US$20M (Twenty Million United States Dollars Only) we are
not compensated, how can one guarantee full compensation on remittance of
the balance of US$45.560M (Forty-Five Million, Five Hundred and Sixty
Thousand United States Dollars Only).
We are therefore seeking your assistance based on the balance amount of
US$45.560M, which can be speedily processed and fully remitted into your
nominated bank account. On successful remittance of the fund into your
account, you will be compensated with 25% of the amount for assistance and
services and 5% set aside
for expenses contingency.
This transaction is closely knitted and in view of our SENSITIVE POSITION
we cannot afford a slip, I assure you that this transaction is 100% risk
free.We will avail you with our identities as regards our respective
offices, when relationship is fully established and smooth operation
commences. I am at your disposition to entertain any question(s) from you
in respect of this transaction, so contact me immediately through the
above private email addresses( Presidency & mail) and fax number for
further information on the requirements and procedure. Please note that
the DEAL needs utmost confidentiality and your immediate response will be
highly appreciated and we will use our own share of the money to establish
a lucrative business in your country.
Please you should contact me immediately with your private fax and
telephone numbers where further details in respect to this transaction
would be sent to. Please do not disregard my email for any reason because
it was addressed to and from myself, it is for security reason to avoid
problem. Yours truly,
ALHAJI SULEIMAN ABUBAKAR.

This is the letter that they sent with the above e-mail.
Here are two of the faxes I have also received.
The Canadian Phone number is: 1-514-570-1540 it is from Montreal Canada, I
have contacted a Paper in that area but have yet to receive a reply. I
called this number yesterday, they want me to receive another fax and send
it back to them right away. I'm not going to do it. I believe I have
carried
it out far enough to at least cause them some trouble.
Thank you for any assistance you may render,
