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.

Subject: Dearest Good Friend / Imperative proposal
Dearest Good Friend,
I am one of the Personal Assistance to the late President Gnassingb Eyadema of Togo. I will not like to waste your time. I contacted you as a friend that I can trust to handle some part of the money (US$35,000,000.00) the President Gnassingb Eyadema wanted to go and deposit in Switzerland bank before he died.
I am presently in Ivory Coast because I cannot go back to my country for now due to the new government in place because he also wanted me to deposit the fund into his personal account which I refuse. As soon as you get in touch with me accepting my proposal, I will give you all the details and modalities that are involved in this project, including your share of the fund for your assistance. I am waiting for your quick reply through my private E-mail, koffinene93@yahoo.fr
I will explain in details after your response in the next mail. Please click to this site to understand what I am about to make you aware.
