Good day,

This is Mrs. Lucy Tamlyn, The Former United States Ambassador to Republic of Benin, I came down here in Cotonou Benin Republic for an ECOWAS meeting and I was searching for some files that I left in this office before I left and found out that you have not received your fund, and I asked the present ambassador Mrs.Patricia Mahoney, what happened that you have not receive your fund since last years ago, and she said that you refused to pay the required fee for the delivery of your ATM CARD.

I'm contacting you this morning because the director of the ATM CARD center here in Benin Republic said that they will divert your ATM CARD to the Government Treasury just because that you cannot pay for the service fee of your ATM CARD which is $190.00 only according to them. But I told them to wait until I hear from you today so that I will know the reason why you rejected such amount of money $7.5m which will change your life just because of $190.00

I want your urgent response as soon as you receive this email and explain to me the reason why you have abandon your ATM CARD because of $190.00 But if you don't need it then I can change your name to another person so that this Government will not claim this money. Please my dear I want to help you to receive this fund because it was a very big shock to me that you have not receive your ATM CARD and withdraw your money since 2 years now and I'm very sorry for that and you will receive your fund before the end of this meeting which will take us 3 days and I will be here to monitor it until you receive your
fund.


Please reconfirm your information:

Subject: Dear Friend,

Dear Friend,

Having viewed your status on-line which motivated me that you can be a trusted person,i am contacting you in respect to my late husband s fund worth US 20Million deposited with ATLANTIQUE BANK BENIN REPUBLIC,for safe keeping purposes.But right now my husband is dead and the financial firm has been giving me several notifications to make the claim of the said deposit. I want a situation whereby i will present you as my Executor to the bank so that you assist me to make the claim of this fund from the financial firm so that it will be transferred to your custody pending my arrival with my only daughter to your country so that we can use it judiciously for investment purposes.

My only daughter will continue her education in your country upon our arrival once every arrangement as regards this transaction is concluded.I will be offering you
20% of the fund for your foreign assistance as long as you can help me out in carrying out this project effectively without insinuating greed and selfishness. I am
contacting you in this respect for the below purposes,

1,To avoid awareness of my late husbands relatives because they would like to inherit it alone if i dare disclose it to them because they said that i do not have a

male child for my late husband without considering the welfare of me and my only daughter.

2,To avoid awareness of Benin Republic Government about the fund since my husband was a former politician in Benin. Once i receive your positive
response,i will give you more details as to enable us proceed

Yours sincerely
Mrs Yani Wuka"

Here is another scam.

Here's another one for your review. She wants my bank routing number and account number so I may receive my funds. I'll call my Banker Mr. Rodney Dangerous (haha!) to make sure she gets immediately escorted to the vault.
