SCAMMER IN BRIEF:

Miss. Helen Karume, 24 years old woman from the Cote D'Ivoire, parents was killed by rebels during the civil war. Fled the country and found her way to the refugee camp in Dakar, Senegal. The late father (Dr. Fedrick Karume) had been a substantial bank deposit ($7.3 million US dollars) with the English/Scottish bank. Miss. Helen is the bank deposit's designated the next of kin (beneficiary). However, she an't withdraw the money from her late father's bank account. The financial governing laws of the Senegal states, the persons with the refugee status are not allowed to participate personally into any monetary transaction or to operate with a bank account overseas or locally. The bank had guided her to obtain a foreign trustee/guardian, who would claim for the deposit on her behalf so that the wire transaction of the inherited funds to the trustee/guardian's bank account would be possible. Trustee/guardian's commission and allowance would be 15%, rest of the funds would be invested in lucrative business. The trustee/guardian would obtain the travel documents for her so that she can re-locate to live over to him, resume her interrupted studies and start new better life.

She obtained the lawyer (Barrister Kanjura Patrick) to drafting the power of attorney and the affidavit of oath according to the bank's procedure of the wire transaction. Miss. Helen would sign the documents in the Federal High Court, lawyer would representing the trustee/guardian and sign the documents on behalf him. But this lawyer was too busy to reply his emails.

Subject: PLEASE UNDERSTAND MY SITUATION HAER AND HELP WITH LOVE AND TRUST

Hello dear,

I am more than happy in your reply to my mail. How was your day?, Mine is a little bit hot over here in Dakar Senegal. My name is Helen Karume, from Ivory Coast in West Africa, am 24 years old, 5.4ft tall, fair in complexion, (never married before) and presently, i am residing in the refugee camp here in Dakar-Senegal as a result of the civil war that was fought in my country. I love reading and spots and like to visit parks and garden to be close to nature. I love children too and will like to have many children when i get married.

Please listen to this important information about me, My late father Dr Frederick Karume was the managing director of Fredcocoa and Associates (Ltd) and he was the personal advicer to the former head of state (Late Dr Robert Guei) before the rebels attacked our house one early morning and killed my mother and my father in cold blood. It was only me that is alive now and I managed to make my way to a near by country Senegal where i am leaving now. I have my late father's statement of account and death certificate here with me which i will send to you latter, because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in one the leading banks which he used my name as the next of kin, the amount in question is $7.3 (Seven Million three Hundred Thousand US Dollars). And i have contacted the bank so that i can have the money atleast to start a new life for myself but they requested that i should have a foreign partner as my representative due to my living status here,

As a refugee here i don't have any right or privileged to any thing be it money or whatever because it is against the law of this country, and i want to go back to my studies because i only attended my first year before the tragic incident that lead to my being in this situation now took place. So i will like you to help me transfer this money to your account and from it you can send some money for me to get my traveling documents and air ticket to come over to meet with you.

I kept this secret from people in the camp here,the only person that knows about it is Reverend HENRY JOSHUA who is incharge of (CHRIST THE LIGHT CHURCHES) here in the camp because he is like a father to me.So in the light of above i will like you to keep it to yourself and don't tell it to anyone for i am afraid of loosing my life and the money if people gets to know about it. Remember i am giving you all this information due to the trust i deposed on you, i like honest and understanding people and a man of vision, truth and hardworking, our main language is french but English is my favorite because i also speaks it fluently.I will send you the bank's details in my next mail but for trust and confidence firstly i will like you to send me in your reply your details such as your full name,your country and address, your age and occupation so that i can send to the bank and let them know you.

Meanwhile i will like you to call me through the reverend's telephone number so we can talk more,
The Reverend's phone number is (+221763324911) if you call and tell him that you want to speak with me he will send for me in the hostel to come and answer your call. Have a nice day and think about me, awaiting to hear from you soonest,

Yours in love
Helen

I have been directed by the director of foreign Operation / Wire Transfer to write you in respect to your email which we received here today, Actually we have earlier been told about you by the young lady who is (the next of kin) that she wishes you to be her trustee /representative for the claim of her late father's deposit with this bank.

However before our bank will transact any business concerning the transfer of the fund to your bank, we will like you to send the followings immediately to our bank.

1. A power of attorney permitting you to claim and transfer the funds to your bank account on her behalf. Note: a Senegalese resident lawyer must endorse this Power of attorney since the money is originated from Africa.

Subject: Honey please contact this lawyer for some of the documents.

Hello my dear,

How are you today?, I hope you are fine, dear, thank you for all your love and effort to help me in my situation and help to transfer money to your position pending my arrival to meet with you, it shows that you are reliable and trustworthy person. Listen honey, before I give you this information, I prayed and my spirit convinced me that you are my bone and my flesh, I have never loved any body or any body so informed about this money, only people who know about it, You, me and the Reverend once again no one knows about it (after the death of my parents), and I wanted to keep it for yourself because of evil people, because I do not want to lose their lives because of money.

Now, as regards requests the bank needs from us I have with me here the last statement of the balance (which I will send to the Bank, if the lawyer agrees to help us) and a death certificate (which I also send the bank), I thought it was the only thing the bank will need from us, but because they need the power of attorney, and a sworn oath from high court here in Dakar, Senegal.

I reported this to the Reverend and he gave me the contact of this lawyer below, according to the Reverend, he is a registered lawyer in the United Nations camp here, and it is also a registered member in (Senegalese Bar Association), which will help in preparing the documents for us. Please, I would like you to contact him by e-mail or by phone today or tomorrow because according to what the bank requested that the documents that have power of attorney and an affidavit swearing going to bear his name and, if you contact them, Tell him that you are my foreign partner and you want him to prepare a power of attorney on your behalf in order to transfer my account (late) father, the Royal Bank of Scotland to your account in your country. His contact information is as follows,

NAMES ....... Kanjura Patrick. Law on Chambers of Kanjura
Letters .......... [email protected]
Phone (+221-301062144, +221-777772207)

So, I would like you to contact him to prepare a power of attorney Please try and contact me when you are in contact with him and let me know if he agrees to help us!. Please i will like you, first of all, get the money transferred and from it you can send some money for me to prepare my documents. A big hug and kisses for you. From my heart, deep love,

Your forever
Miss Helen
