Victims never receive this non-existent fortune but are tricked into sending their money to the criminals, who remain anonymous. They hide their real identity and location by using fake names and fake postal addresses as well as communicating via anonymous free email accounts and mobile phones.

Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2005 09:28:22 +0200
Subject: PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL
FROM: THE DESK OF Brr.MUMKAMBA ZAMBEZI DAVIS.
JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA.
Attn: Sir/Madam,
I am Barr.Mumkamba Zambezi Davids, An Attorney at Law in the Republic of
SOUTH AFRICA
I am the personal Attorney to Mr. A Carrol , a stock Broker who also
deals on comodities [petroleum products and solid minerals], whom I believe
is a National of your country.
This client of mine died on september 11th Terrorist Attack on WORLD TRADE
CENTER IN UNITED STATES. He died on a secondary cause of the Terrorist
Attack on the WTC when a Car conveying him and his wife crashed into a
stationary Truck at the premises of the WTC in the ensuing confusion. The
Truck actually belonged to the Fire Service Authorities of the USA and since
then I have been in a legal tussle with the Authority to include the names
of my client and his wife into the list of the Attack Victims but this has
not worked yet. Before he died, my client has the sum of US$10.440,000.00
(Ten Million,Four hundred and Fourty Thousand US Dollars) in his account
with BANK OF AFRICA (BANQUE DE AFRIQUE).
Since then I have made several inquiris to locate any of his extended
Relatives but this has proved unsuccessful.After these several unsuccessful
attempts, I decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any
member of his family. This has also not paid-off. I therefore, decided to
contact you to assist in claiming of the money left behind by my client as
his next-of-kin since you have the same last name as my client.
His Account will be declared "unserviceable" by the Bank if the money
remains unclaimed by his relations after a reasonable time and this will
mean a total loss. I therefore, seek your consent to present you as the next
of kin to the deceased so that the money US$10.440m will be paid to you
,then I and you will share the money.
Note that all neccesary legal documents will be in place to back up the
claims. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal
through.I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimatearrangement
that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Once I have your consent and trust,I will immediately raise all necesary
documents and instruct the bank to move the money on your name to the
account number
you may chose.
Anticipating your urgent response.
