very convincing Ebola man said:
Good Day,

I am Chief Abel Ebifemowei,a cousin and personal assistant to the Governor of Oil rich Bayelsa
State of the Federal Republic of Nigeria Chief Diepreye Alamieyeseigha,who is presently undergoing trial in
United Kingdom for money laundering and illegal possesion of large amount of cash.

Following the sudden arrest of my cousin and Governor in United Kingdom on 15th September 2005,
I have been thrown into a state of utter confusion, frustration and hopelessness by the present
civilian administration, I have been subjected to physical and psychological torture by the
security agents in the country.Infact I escaped from the security operatives and presently hiding
in a remote creek in my state.

I have lost confidence in so many people within the country. You must have heard on the media
and the internet on reports about the recovery of sums of money totalling Three Million Two
Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$3.2 Million) deposited by my Governor in United
Kingdom and the seizure of his properties valued at over Ten Million Pounds Sterling.

Dear Friend if the truth must be told,my cousin is facing political persecution in the present
day Nigeria because of his believe that our people who are largely marginalised should control
our God given Oil resources which is abundantly situated in our state.Infact the money found on
him was meant towards the realisation of this noble goal.Due to this our government is not
relenting in their effort in making us poor for life such that our freedom will not see the
light of the day.

Dear friend,I got your contacts through my personal research, and out of desperation decided to
reach you through this medium.I am willing to give you more information on how to proceed as soon
as you reply.

I repose great confidence in you hence my approach to you due to security network placed on my
daily affairs.I cannot afford to visit the embassy so that is why I decided to contact you and I
hope you will not betray my confidence in you. I have deposited the sum of USD$50.0 million
United states dollars on behalf of my Governor with a security firm abroad whose name is withheld
for now until we open proper communication.

I shall be grateful if you could receive this fund into your care for safekeeping.I have been
approved to deal directly with you as regards to getting the funds released to you without
problems.

You could as well visit these websites below to see things by your self,

I am seriously considering to settle down abroad in a friendly atmosphere like yours as soon as
this fund get into your care so that I can start all over again if only you wish, but if it is
impossible, just help me in diverting this fund into a safe bank account.For your assistance we
have decided to give you 20% of this fund.Please honesty is the watch word in this transaction,
I will give you a more detailed information once I hear from you.

Finally if you are unwilling to assist please do not disclose the content of this communication
to a third party as I am giving you this information in total trust and confidence, I will
greatly appreciate it if you accept my proposal in good faith.

I thank you for your anticipated kind assistance and do endeavour to reply to this message ASAP or call
me directly on my telephone number +234 806 210 5393 .For security and
confidentiality regarding this transaction please quote (AE/01) in your response.

Yours faithfully,

Chief Abel Ebifemowei.

They always give a phone number because they want you to phone them or they you because then they have real contact with you. When I was baiting them I used to pretend to be deaf to explain my lack of a phone and they seemed to accept it. I did have a fake passport that we'd photoshopped and that was a good convincer.

The idea of using a real news story is a common one. They think it aids credability. I've lost count of the Maryam Abachas I've dealt with!

LOL, I certainly am well behind the times keeping up with the scammers! Hard to believe that there are people out there who fall for this!
