I had this friend request on Skype and a message that says:

Hello My Last name,


I have been in search of someone with this last name "My Last Name ", so when I saw your name I was pushed to contact you and see how best we can assist each other. I am Mr.James Richmond, a Banker here in GHANA. I believe it is the wish of God for me to come across you on Skype now. I am having an important business discussion I wish to share with you, which I believe will interest you because, it is in connection with your last name and you are going to benefit from it.

One Late Dehqan "my first initial and last name", a citizen of your country had a fixed deposit with my bank in 2005 for 36 calendar months, valued a US$3,400,000.00 (Three Million,four Hundred Thousand US Dollars) the due date for this deposit contract was the 16th of January 2008.Sadly Dehqan was among the death victims in the May 26 2006 Earthquake disaster in Jawa,Indonesia that killed over 5,000 people. He was in Indonesia on a business trip and that was how he met his end. My bank management is yet to know about his death, I knew about it because he was my friend and I am his account officer.

Dehqan did not mention any Next of Kin/ Heir when the account was opened, and he Dehqan was not married and no children. Last week my Bank Management requested that I should give instructions on what to do about his funds, if to renew the contract. I know this will happen and that is why I have been looking for a means to handle the situation, because if my Bank Directors happens to know that Dehqan is dead and do not have any Heir, they will take the funds for their personal use, so I don't want such to happen.
That was why when I saw your last name I was happy and I am now seeking your co-operation to present you as Next of Kin (Heir) to the account, since you have the same last name with him and my bank head quarters will release the account to you.

There is no risk involved; the transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you and I from any breach of law.It's going to be a bank-to-bank transfer. It is better that we claim the money, than allowing the Bank Directors to take it, they are rich already. I am not a greedy person, so I am suggesting we share the funds equal, 50/50% to both parties, my share will assist me to start my own company which has been my dream.

Let me know your mind on this and please do treat this information as TOP SECRET and DO NOT reply to this on Skype for security reason. I will appreciate your timely response at my personal Email address: ( [email protected] )


Best Regards,

Mr.James Richmond
