SCAM ALERT: SIR Amudu Bello from Ouagadougou Republic of BURKINA FASO

Perhaps you've heard tons of stories about phishing scams, email scams or internet scams a long time ago. Just because you're a good or bad person doesn't mean you're exempted to be a victim. scammers will always find ways to scam people, they'll get into your nerves, they're like vampires that will bite your neck to death and suck your blood!

There has been lots of email scams that is going on the internet nowadays, but perhaps this is not new at all. Email scams has been happening already for a long long time and most scammers are from Ghana and Africa (though not generalizing all people who are living in Ghana and Africa or Nigeria) as I believe that there are still good people from there.

And you really can't generalized them all since scammers are everywhere, either in the Philippines, in the US, Canada and any other countries they're everywhere! There are several ways for you to avoid this scams but chances are you may become a victim once because you learn something.

This morning I received an email from a suspicious person I don't even know, at first I thought he was a close friend of mine because his email is kinda long, it's like your reading his entire life story. But of course I won't fall into it as it's pretty obvious that it really is a SCAM!

Here's how the email goes, just in case you received the same email from this scammer who is an idiot to scam people this way, it's not even realistic, the approach was unrealistic, unbelievable and is obviously a BIG SCAM!

Email from: amudu_bello1@voila.fr

Dear Friend,

With due respect to your person and much sincerity of purpose I make this
contact with you as I believe that you can be of great assistance to me. My name
is SIR Amudu Bello from Ouagadougou Republic of BURKINA FASO, West Africa.Presently i work in the Bank as telex manager. I have been searching for your contact since you left our country some years ago .

I do not know whether this is your correct email address or not because I only used your name initials to
search for your contact in the internet .In case you are not the person I am
supposed to contact , please see this as a confidential message and do not
reveal it to another person but if you are not the intended receiver, do let me
know whether you can be of assistance regarding my proposal below because it is top secret.

I am about to retire from active Bank service to start a new life but I am
sceptical to reveal this particular secret to a stranger . You must assure me
that everything will be handled confidentially because we are not going to
suffer again in life.

It has been 10 years now that most of the greedy African Politicians used our
bank to Launder money overseas through the help of their Political advisers.
Most of the funds which they transferred out of the shores of Africa was gold
and oil money that was supposed to have been used to develop the continent.
Their Political advisers always inflated the amounts before transfer to foreign
accounts so I also used the opportunity to divert part of the funds hence I am
aware that there is no official trace of how much was transferred as all the
accounts used for such transfers were being closed after transfer.

I acted as the Bank Officer to most of the politicians and when I discovered
that they were using me to succeed in their greedy act, I also cleaned some of
their banking records from the Bank files and no one cared to ask me because the money was too much for them to control. They laundered over $300,000,000,00(Three hundred million) united states Dollars during the process .As I am sending this message to you, I was able to divert more than Fifty five Million Dollars ($55m) to an escrow account belonging to no one in the bank. The bank is anxious now to know who is the beneficiary to the funds because they have made a lot of profits with the funds.

It is more than Eight years now and most of the politicians are no longer using
our bank to transfer funds overseas. The Fifty five Million Dollars ($55m) has
been lying waste but I don't want to retire from the bank without transferring
the funds to a foreign account to enable me share the proceeds with the
receiver. The money will be shared 60% for me and 40% for you .

There is no one coming to ask you about the funds because I secured everything.I
only want you to assist me by providing a bank account where the funds can be
transferred. You are not to face any difficulties or legal implications as I am
going to handle the transfer personally. If you are capable of receiving the
funds, do let me know immediately to enable me give you a detailed information
on what to do.

For me, I have not stolen the money from anyone because the other people that
took the whole money did not face any problems. This is my chance also to grab
my own but you must keep the details of the funds secret to avoid leakages as no
one in the bank knows about the funds.

Please supply me the following:

Your current contact address and Telephone Numbers..

I shall intimate you on what to do when I get your confirmation and acceptance.And for more information kindly contact me through this email address as stated:(amudu_bello1@voila.fr)

If you are capable of being my trusted associate, do declare your consent to me.

Waiting for your urgent response.

Yours Faithfully,
Mr.Amudu Bello.
As I was reading email, I can already smell the scam thing, the scammer was so stupid to send that email because this type of scam is somewhat old tactics, this has been used for ages now. People pretending to be a professional, traveled somewhere and was trapped because they were robbed and more sub stories!
