Dead Men Tell No Tales

This could have been a better bait because this moron actually read my emails and was a little feisty. My whole point of this scambait was to first get him to admit that what we were doing was illegal and then to continue under that premise. But this idiot would not even appease me and admit this, therefore I held my ground and told him to go away. Usually at this point, they beg and plead and tell you what you want to hear, but this banana-crammer just gave up. My emails are in blue, his/hers are in black, my comments in red. Happy reading!

You didn’t explain whose money this is or where it is coming from. And from your email, you sound like a highly-religious and God-Fearing person, but I am an atheist and all of this talk about God is upsetting and insulting to me. Please stop.

Thomas


Dear Thomas,

I am writing in respect of your question about the owner of the deposited fund and where it is coming from. The depositor of this money is late Mr. Richard Burson, the escrow account number where the money is deposited into is 1194-255-28004 Mr. Richard Burson perished in Egyptian Air Flight with the whole passengers aboard on 31st Oct 1999 see this news for confirmation (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/502503.stm) Since the demise of my bank customer Mr. Richard, I personally has watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds of USD$14.5 Million Dollars which has been with my branch for a very long time. On this note, I decided to seek for a foreign partner who i will use his name as the next of kin to the late person since no one has come up as his relative.

Remember my country law here does not allow such money to stay more than 10 years, for the money will be recalled to the government treasury as unclaimed after the end of this September. Upon the receipt of your response with the requested data, I will send to you the application, bank's contact and the next step to follow. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is hitch free and that you should not entertain any fear as all modalities for fund transfer can be finalized within 10 banking days or less, after you apply to the bank as a relation to the deceased. Immediately you receive this letter, kindly send me an e-mail signifying your decision, Including your private Tel and Fax numbers for quick communication. I will be very happy if you can treat this business with the utmost secrecy as it demands because of my position in this bank. Hoping for a very successful business relationship with you.

This fund is my hope and the hope of my children after so many years in in civil service in the Government. This is the reason why i need to be strong in faith having you as a good and truthful person who take heed on every of his word. This kind of transaction mainly exist in part of Africa here where looting is the order of the day hence Government officials in high positions uses this means to divert monies abroad by foreigners like you for their future investment if they retire or been fired from office since our stay in office does not last long due to changes in government which always allow re-shuffling of offices. I want you and I to benefit from this opportunity which i believe my contact to you among every person in the whole world is Divine Before contacting you, I had series of prayers and fasting for divine direction to an honest and trustworthy person who will not betray me once the fund is in his custody.

Bear in mind that I,m not a religious person, though I fear God and holding my word as my bond all the time and in every of my efforts if you had chooses not to make it open, I wouldn't have known what the problem is or even have the opportunity to defend myself, even if at the end we can not continue. I know you are a very honest and open person and with that quality you will always appreciate truth when they are told. yes, I agree with all the emphasis on the mail you sent to me. I am not the first person to carry out this kind of business and I am very sure I will not be the last if I decide not to siphoned out this funds some other person will still do it and benefit and continue to rule over people like me who want to remain honest. In case if you don't know, it is not peculiar to my bank alone nor African countries either but all over the world.

Thomas, No body want to remain poor once you have any opportunity to change your life standard and I believe that I have served and contributed my own good measure to my bank and Ghana government before this business and I can not see anything wrong if I should retire as a fulfilled person. I don't know any other way to explain this whole thing to you in other to make sense, but one thing I would tell you is that you should not allow sentiment to affect your sense of reasoning, try and be matured in reasoning so that we can both benefit this great opportunity that I have extended to you. It is important we talk on phone if you would give me your direct mobile phone number.

I want to hear from you soonest

Best Regards,
Mr. Atah.


The strangest thing about this whole email that you sent is how you quote and reference God and go into detail about how you are a good and honest man, and yet you are trying to steal this money, and you want me to commit this crime with you. You can justify it anyway you want, but if we do this, then we are criminals – do you understand this?

It sounds like you have a good position at the bank and you are making good money and you want to jeopardize your freedom by stealing this money? Are you prepared to become a criminal in this matter?

Thomas


Dear Mr. Thomas,

Please I do not deaserve this sort of insult because i knew myself. One thing you got to know is that this money belongs to a dead person and no one has come to claim it. Remember the deads are dead and final they shall be no more. This is not a steal or criminal activity because the owner of the money is dead and deads do not use money hence i want to move the money out. So please do not see it as a crime because it is not a crime.

Mr. Atah.


I was not insulting you, but it is a crime. Taking something that does not belong to you is called stealing. The money does not belong to the dead man, it belongs to his estate. If he left no beneficiaries to his estate, then yes, it belongs to the government. Either way, the money does not belong to you or me, and if we take it then it is called stealing and we could go to jail for it. So don’t tell me it is not a crime.

Now, we must decide if we want to do this and risk getting caught and of being criminals. What are you plans or how do you propose we steal this money. I want to hear your entire plan before I commit to anything.

My last email was not meant to be an insult; but looking at this at face value for what it is.

Thomas


Dear Mr. Thomas,

I know you are a very wealthy person dealing on crane leasing and rental in medina Ohio. Please I can never agree with you that the money left by a dead person in my possession is stealing because the Government will likely to steal the money because does not belong to them neither you nor me. But for the fact that late depositor has no written will or beneficiary for his deposited fund. I think I have the right to lay a claim on the fund and move it out. Please no more prolonging of his matter because there is no time for us to waste.

Mr. Atah.


Since you want to rationalize this entire matter and want to insist that we are not stealing this money, you need to find someone else to help you. I don’t want to work with someone who can’t be honest with their supposed partner – how am I supposed to trust you? You seem to think you are entitled to this money? Why? Because you figured out a way to steal it without getting caught? That doesn’t make the money yours or give you a legal claim to it. Yes, I know, the big evil government is going to take it and you won’t get anything so therefore you think it is yours – this does not give the right of ownership – it makes you a thief, and a pretty incompetent one if you can’t even level with your own partner.

Please find someone else.

Thomas


That was it – no more responses. I am a little surprised – usually they beg and plead and tell you whatever you want to hear before they will give up. I admire this dirtball a little – he stood by his principles – the principle that it is okay to steal from the government…
