MY GREETINGS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND I HOPE THIS LETTER MEETS YOU IN GOOD HEALTH. I AM SEDIQUE LOPEZ,AIDE TO THE LATE PRESIDENT MOBUTU SESE-SEKO OF ZAIRE NOW KNOWN AS DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO(DRC). I AM WRITING TO YOU IN GOOD FAITH BASED ON YOUR PROFILE I RECEIVED FROM THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IN SOUTH AFRICA.
I AM MOVED TO WRITE YOU THIS LETTER IN CONFIDENCE CONSIDERING MY PRESENT CIRCUMSTANCE AND SITUATION AS A WAR REFUGEE HERE IN SOUTH AFRICA. FEW WEEKS BEFORE THE LATE PRESIDENT MOBUTU SESE-SEKO WAS FORCED OUT OF POWER, I WAS INSTRUCTED BY HIM TO MAKE AVAILABLE THE SUM OF US$22MILLION WHICH WAS TO BE TRANSFERRED ABROAD AND LODGED WITH A SECURITY COMPANY FOR SAFEKEEPING DISCLOSED AS FAMILY VALUABLES IN MY NAME PENDING FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS. TWO WEEKS LATER ON MAY 16 1997,PRESIDENT MOBUTU SESE-SEKO GAVE UP POWER TO THE REBELS LED BY LAURENT KABILA, WHO WERE ADVANCING FROM KISINGANI AND FLED TO TOGO FROM WHERE HE LATER MOVED TO MOROCCO WHERE HE DIED ON SEPTEMBER 7,1997 LESS THAN FOUR MONTHS AFTER HE WAS FORCED OUT OFPOWER. HE WAS AGED 66 YEARS.
I MANAGED TO ESCAPE TO SOUTH AFRICA WITH MY SON PATRICE, AGED 17 WHERE I AM PRESENTLY RESIDING AS A WAR REFUGEE SHORTLY AFTER THE CAPITAL CITY KINSHASHA WAS OVER RUN OVER BY REBELS. I LOST MY WIFE AND MY TWO CHILDREN, AND ALL MY POSSESSIONS DURING THE REBEL ON SLAUGHT ON THE CAPITAL CITY. THE LATE MOBUTU SESE-SEKO DURING HIS 30 YEAR RULE AMASSED A PERSONAL FORTUNE OF US$8 BILLION WITH HOUSES IN SWITZERLAND AND FRANCE. HOWEVER, THE INCUMBENT PRESIDENT LAURENT KABILA MADE ARRANGEMENTS WITH THE SWISS GOVERNMENT AND OTHER EUROPEAN COUNTRIES TO FREEZE ALL HIS ASSETS AND CONFISCATE HIS PROPERTIES.
I THUS DECIDED TO LIE LOW IN SOUTH AFRICA TO STUDY THE SITUATION, UNTIL WHEN THINGS GET BETTER LIKE NOW THAT PRESIDENT LAURENT KABILA IS DEAD AND HIS SON JOSEPH KABILA HAS TAKENOVER. I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH THE SECURITY COMPANY ABROAD WHERE THE MONEY IS STILL LODGED AS FAMILY VALUABLES.THE FUNDS ARE SECURITY CODED TO PREVENT THEM FROM KNOWING THE CONTENT. WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO IS TO INDICATE YOUR INTEREST THAT YOU WILL ASSIST ME BY RECEIVING THE MONEY ON MY BEHALF. ACKNOWLEDGE THIS MESSAGE SO THAT I CAN GIVE YOU THE MODALITIES FOR THE CLAIM OF THE FUNDS. MAY I AT THIS POINT EMPHASIZE THE HIGH LEVEL OF CONFIDENTIALITY WHICH THIS BUSINESS DEMANDS, AND HOPE YOU WILL NOT BETRAY THE TRUST AND CONFIDENCE WHCH I HAVE REPOSED IN YOU. IF YOU WANT TO ASSIST, I SHALL PUT YOU IN THE PICTURE OF THE BUSINESS, TELL YOU WHERE THE FUNDS ARE CURRENTLY BEING MAINTAINED AND ALSO DISCUSS OTHER MODALITIES INCLUDING REMUNERATION FOR YOUR SERVICES.

Dear Sir/Madam,
It's my priviledge to briefly introduce myself and the confidential business proposal in concern. I write you this letter of request for partnership which i hope you give your urgent attention as a reputable and trustworthy businessman.
I am Mr Godswill Zabina from (Republic of Congo) Zaire, a consultant, estate and properties valued visiting holland. I was consulted by Dr. Edoman Zabina (my Uncle) a personal assistance to the Director General of the Banque Du Zaire, this is the highest bank in Zaire.
The said Dr. Edoman Zabina is a uncle and has ask me to help him to look and arrange with a trustworthy foreign partner who can assist in keeping the sum of US$18.5M (EIGTHTEEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS) in his Bank account for further investment.
The said amount US$18.5M was transported through Diplomatic Means in Two treasure boxes and is presently deposited with a security company here in holland since 18th of Febuary 2002 although they do not know the contents and he declared the content of the trunk boxes to the security company as antiquities and personal effect. This was aimed at protecting the money from theft.
Basically, the money was deposited by Uncle Dr. Edoman Zabina before he was arrested by the government of my country and when there was probing to unravel the circumstances leading to the disapperance of some millions of dollars in the country's coffer, my uncle was subsequently arrested along with other high ranking officials of the bank.
We would have been able to claim this trunk boxes out on our own but our problem is compounded with the fact that my uncle told the security company that the trunk boxes belong to a foreign affiliate who will come forward to claim it when due.
However your assistance is seriously needed because as Government official they are not allowed to operate any foreign account due to the Zaire law, which does not permit government officials to operate foreign accounts. Dr. Edoman Zabina has decided to compensate you with 25% of the total sum of US$18.5M then 5% will be set aside for expences incurred in the course of this transaction, while 70% will be for him and his partners.
If you are willing to render him your assistance regarding this transaction and safe keeping of the money, all necessary arrangements required for the speedy conclusion of this within TEN(10) working days has been concluded.
So i desire all information i have provided you to be kept secret to avoid more harm to him, Dr. Edoman Zabina (Personal Assistance to the Director General). I am in a position to provide you with further details immediately i received acknowledgement of this mail from you as soon as possible as you identify positive interest to assist.
For further informations and clarification on this issue please contact me through my directline [deleted] OR my email address.
Awaiting for your urgent responce.
Best regards,
Mr. Godswill Zabina.

Dear sir,
Compliment of the day, I am JAMES KYARI, The son of late General Jonas Kyari of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
My father was a General in the Congolese Army. In his position (My father) with the office of the presidency during the regime of Laurent Kabila, he was assigned on a secret mission to source and acquire arms internationally in order to strengthen the Government forces against the rebels, which already had the support of Rwandan and Uganda Army. While he was still negotiating for the purchase of the arms, he received on the 16th January 2001 news of the assassination of Laurent Kabila which forced him to call off the assignment and deposit the sum of US$12.5M, Packed in a diplomatic case in a private security company in the Hague, the Netherlands, though he registered the content as precious stones while the real content is (US12.5M) meant for the purchase of arms for the Congolese Army.
My father went home for the funeral of the late president, but on his arrival he was arrested, detained and tortured, unfortunately my father suffer cardiac arrest and died on the 17th of March 2001. However, on one of our numerous visits, my mother and I paid him while in prison, my father was able to reveal this secret to me and advice that i should proceed to the Netherlands to claim the money, he handed me all the relevant documents that will enable me claim the box from the security company.Already, I have made my first visit to the security company and the availability of this box have been confirmed.
On our arrival in the Netherlands few months ago, we sought for political asylum; which was granted. My mother and I are making frantic efforts on the best way to handle this money. We sought advice from an attorney who advised that we must seek for a trustworthy foreign business partner whom this money could be transferred into his/her (company"s) account This we view as the best option because our refugee status does not permit us to operate a bank account, hence we seek your assistance and hope you could be trusted.
I sincerely crave your indulgence and assistance to get this money through your account, Your share for assisting us will be 25% of the total sum, 5% will be use for upsetting all the expenses incurred in the course of concluding this venture and the remaining 70% that will be for me and my family. Also you stand to gain from any investment you might introduce us into after the conclusion of the transfer.

Dear Sir,
INVESTMENT OFFER
In appreciation of your esteemed contact received through a reliable source and the choice of your country I wish to introduce myself, I am Idris Victor Kabila the son of the late Democratic Republic of Congo President Laurent Desire Kabila of the blessed memory. I know this letter might come to you as a surprise but I honestly do not intend to surprise you. I write this letter in respect of my intention to invest the sum of US$65M (Sixty Five Million united State Dollars) with you. I inherited this money from my mother. This money was got through the smuggling and sale of Diamond and Timber when my father was the head of state. My mother though not her legal wife used her privilege position to engage in the business of Diamond and timber since she knows that her survival will depend on how much she can get out of the privilege situation.
When my father was assassinated on 16th January 01 by one of his bodyguards Lt. Rashidi Kasereke through the conspiracy of some top army officers that wanted to topple him I escaped to South Africa because of the fear that I might be arrested by my half brother Lt. General Joseph Kabila the present head of state. Actually his mother and my mother are not in the best of relationship because of who among them will be the first lady tussle and this ultimately affected us their children.
Considering the relationship between South Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo new government, my mother advised me to leave for South Africa for security reason, while the funds were deposited with a security Company.
On getting to South Africa where I have been living since then as a political refugee I am seeking for a reliable foreigner who can assist me in moving this money out for safe banking and profitable investment. Honestly I contacted you because I don't want to invest this money in South Africa due to my status here as a political Refugee. And moreover I wouldn't want to take risk because this money is all that I and my mother is depending on because my half brother has seized all my father's assets and money and left I and my mother empty handed without knowing about this funds deposited at the security company in Accra Ghana so that is why I decided that investing this money abroad should be the best investment for me. I will be honoured if I can be given the privilege of investing this money with your help.
In view of this plight, I expect you to be trustworthy and kind enough to respond to this distress call to save my mother and I from a hopeless future. And if you agree, I hereby agree to compensate your sincere and candid effort in this regard with 30% of the total money and annual 5% of the after tax returns on investment for the first three years. Thereafter, the term shall be varied. 5% for expenses, which may arise during the transaction, fax and phone bills inclusive $65 million US dollars. When the money ($65 million) is moved into your discrete account, you will be allowed to draw 30% your favor, while the remaining 60% will be invested meaningfully for our future if possible in your area of business and deterrents sectors of the Economy in your country which are dividends yielding.
Whatever your decision is please reach me immediately through my Email: ([deleted]), and keep this letter tight secret for the interest of my family.
Best regards.

SEEKING FOR IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE (TRANSFER OF US$15.5MILLION)
It is my pleasure to request your assistance on this business proposition which if pursued to its conclusion ,will be of immense benefit to both of us. This request may seem strange but I will crave your indulgence and pray that you view it seriously. My name is Col. Victor Aloma of the Democratic Republic of Congo I am one of close aids to the formal president of Congo Democratic LAURENT KABILA of blessed memory, may his soul rest in peace.

But when it became ap! parent that president Kabila has been killed in a bloody shoot out by one of his aids. I immediately decided to divert the fund ( US$15.5) into a private security company for safe keeping. The money is presently in Holland (The Netherlands) where I am currently in exile after the death of president Kabila.
I need a reliable and trust worthy foreign partner/national who can assist me to clear and move this money as the beneficiary from the security company.
Though we have not seen nor met each other, but I would want this transaction to be properly handled with modesty and honesty to a huge success within two weeks, this money in question is state fund as it is a deal between you and I, hence the need for secrecy considering the security implications.
Thus, if you are willing to assist me to move this fund out of the Netherlands, you can contact me onthe above email addres to enable us discuss more about the deal and what your percentage will be for assisting me.
Please note that you will be required to make a brief trip to the Netherlands for inspection of the fund. I also intend to visit your country soonest in order to inquire areas of possible business investment.
For your assistance, i will give you 25% of the entire fund and 5% will be set aside to settle any expences incured in the transaction while the remainning 70% will be for me.
I shall be sincerely glad if my request is rendered.
Kindest Regards,
COL. Victor Aloma
