| You've had them, I've had them and hopefully you delete them. I'm talking about those scamming letters from some African dictatorship country pleading for assistance to liberate Millions of dollars from the country. What do you get from it - a percentage (normally about 10%) of the funds. Sounds too good to be true ? Well it is - wake up and smell the coffee. Last updated Wednesday 2nd April 21:35

Sunday 30th March 17:00 Charles, For your information and for passing onto Antony - my rescheduled flight details are below - just booked them on the web. I look forward to dealing with Anthony and concluding this transaction. Will you keep Mrs Abacha advised ? Do I have to contact the security company (Thomas) or will Anthony do it on my behalf given that he will be in Madrid prior to my arrival. ++++++++++++++++++ Passenger details : Mr S.

Oh look - another bloody mobile phone... I called him up this morning and chatted to him - he's staying with family members (yeh right) and I should call him when I arrive in Madrid. I bet he wants to know which room I've checked into to validate my presence in Madrid. |

Tues 1st April 08:30 Mrs Abacha, I'm currently in the hotel airport lounge awaiting my 11:00am flight and have just spoken to Mr Bassey and plan to meet him this afternoon. I'm going to try and arrange with the security company to have a meeting this afternoon if possible - my flight does not get in till 14:35 so we may be tight for this afternoon depending upon which hours they work.
Regards |

Tues 1st April 08:35 Thomas, i'm currently in the airport lounge enroute to Madrid to meet with Anthony Bassey ( a colleague of Charles). My flight arrives at 14:35 and we are enquiring whether anything can be done with regards to completing this transaction today at any point. Failing that we can complete the transaction tommorow morning first thing. This has been done it a bit of a rush due to the problems I had with my contacts and losing email late last week. Could you do me a favour whilst I'm flying - I've advised the hotel yesterday of my travel plans and that I looking for a room for two nights (Atlantico as per your recommendation) - I forgot to confirm the booking by AM this morning as they said there might be problems in the afternoon. I've got the address of the hotel but not the telephone number. Could you confirm me into the hotel as you did previously I can then advise Antony where to meet me upon my arrival. If we can manage to complete the transaction today - please leave me a message at the hotel with my room booking and I'll call Anthony when I arrive and get the information. Gotta go - my flight has just been called. Hear from you later today..

These BA lounges are great - access to the web, free use of phones etc...just imagine that you're there....
Let see if he books the hotel..

Ah well - I tried...bugger |

Tues 1st April 2003 18:00 - The final entry or is it... I call to Antony (the guy in Madrid who'se been sent from Nigeria) to say....oh dear I've left home without Thomas's telephone number and does he have it. Oh..yes he does have it somewhere and can I call him back in one minute. So I call him back and he does indeed know the telephone number which is strange given that Charles (the Nigerian bloke) never had any contact with them and considering also that its a mobile number. Antony wants to know the hotel telephone number and room number where I'm staying - some excuse about living with his family who are 1h45mins from the centre so he may come in later on this evening when his family come back as he doesn't really know his way about Madrid. He will call me later to let me know that he's coming to town. I call Thomas (the security company geezer) - first thing he asks when I ask for an appointment for tommorow is "where am I staying". I should call him back with the hotel telephone number and my room number - that way he can phone back with an appointment - somehow I don't believe him it sounded like he was in a cafe getting his tea. I think its time to send them a snotty note and wind this one up whilst getting their email accounts barred from yahoo.
I call Thomas back and advise him that I'm in Room 127 in the Atlantico Hotel with their telephone number. Whilst I'm on the phone he enters the number on the keypad so I can hear the tones. He's obviously used to doing this so he can hang up with me and then just hit the redial button to check that I'm in the hotel which of course I'm not.
So I send him this...copied to all others in the story.... ++++++++++++++ As you bunch of lowlifes will no doubt know by now - I've not checked into the lovely Atlantico hotel in Madrid to collect the rather sick Mrs Abachas millions. The only thing sick about her is that she's sick in the head. I, like Mrs Abachas millions do not exist. Never did, never will. As for the others in this twisted tale - you are the lowest form of life possible living on this planet - you're even below an Australian trailer salesmans and thats saying something. You pry on peoples greed whilst on the other hand that you sound holier than the pope himself. If there's something you can do that would benefit mankind, do it - don't try to scam people. People have worked hard for their money you should do the same and learn to appreciate people and their possesions. As you may or may not know, fuckers like you give Nigerians a bad name - ask anyone on the street what they think of Nigerians and they'll reply their a bunch of thieves. Not a very good advert for people to visit Nigeria or even have dealings with Nigerians is it ? Theives of the world - what a great claim to fame...now fuck off and get a proper job you scamming bastards. Regards
Some information if you want it... Mrs Abacha unfortunately does not have a telephone number but I'm sure she can be contacted on one of the following pay as you go mobiles listed below. Solicitor Charles played quite well by some African geezer(in Nigeria) can be reached on.....+234 803 3351 231 FAX 234 1 759 6435 (Note - this is actually a landline) Thomas Blair - The crap security company employee can be reached on +34 68 03 78 370 Antony Bassey - Charles sidekick and international traveller (not) can be reached on ...+34 63 913 7002 Have fun and tell them that Steve sent you and their all a bunch of scheming bastards. Don't get caught out - get them wound up...

Wednesday 2nd April 21:35 Well I never expected to add another update but here goes.... On the my voice mail I've got a message sounding rather urgent from Antony demanding me to call him with the hotel room number (admittingly I didn't check it today I thought they would not have been that dumb) so he did actually call late last night. But today I received an email from Charles (nigerian solicitor) obviously responding to my note of yesterday... +++++++ Could you pls. tell me the meaning of this? I have been waiting to hear from you on the out come I need an explanation on this. Charles +++++++++++
