STOP THE TRILLION DOLLAR SCAMMER KILLERS
05-19-2006 I started this page for the sole reason of trying to expose the killers and scammers that send me endless amounts of scam-spam claiming to have the key to millions upon million of dollars and needing my help to get it into their dirty blood-stained hands. If you get mail like the ones below ignore it. The US Secret Service has information on their site if you have become a victim of one of these vicious scammers. Usually they try to suck you in with a letter like one of the ones below, then they require you to give them personal information, next they require that you send them money. Finally if you are led along far enough they require that you travel to their country where you will be required to give them more money, all of this is in secret of course, and where you will be killed. DO NOT DEAL WITH THESE MURDEROUS IDIOTS. One of the tip-offs is that their English is always terrible and full of mistakes, another is that there is always some important person who has died mysteriously and left a huge amount of money, yet another is the urgency with which they try to hammer in their message. DO NOT FALL FOR IT!!!
IF anyone is trying to track them down and needs more information as to the source of the e-mails I would be more than happy, in fact I would be overjoyed, to offer any assistance in tracking down these idiots. E-mail me at jar2@jar2.com with "African Trillion Dollar Scammers" in the subject line.

Dear Sir/Madam
I am a staff of a reputable bank here in South Africa.
I will give you the name of the bank and other
important information if I receive a positive reply
from you. For security reasons I cannot disclose my
full identity to you for now until I am sure of your
cooperation. I work in the operations dept where I
serve as account officer to numerous customers. One of
the customers whom I worked as his account officer was
a wealthy diamond merchant from the Republic of Sierra
Leone, a country in West Africa. He lost his family in
the war. He was lucky to escape alive and came to this
country with his wealth. Unfortunately he died few
years back.
Because this man was good to me when he was alive, I
took it upon myself to travel to his country last
month, to see if I could locate any of his close
relations. On reaching there I discovered that his
only surviving uncle died a few months back. I
sponsored this trip on my own and nobody in the bank
knew I was undertaking the journey so I did not
present any official report of my findings in South
Africa.
Now there are two things I could do with respect to
the dead man's money. First, as his accounts officer,
I could formally notify the bank authorities that the
man is dead and has no next of kin. In this case the
money would be forfeited to the government after some
time. 0n the other hand, I can arrange for someone,
a foreigner, to act as the next of kin of the late man
so that he/she can claim the money. This is the option
l have decidedd to take to help myself and whoever
that God brings my way. I took this option after my
findings that this fund actually was a public fund
looted by highly place government officials under the
brutal military government. I want you to be my
partner. All you would have to do is act as the next
of kin of the dead man and the whole money in the
account will be transferred to your nominated bank
account. As the account/s officer to the late man, I
have all the necessary documents that you require to
claim the money in the account.
The total money in the account is USD$17 million. I
hope to resign my job as a banker to join you in a
viable business partnership at the eventual transfer
of this fund. Kindly Reach me immediately using the
above contact information. Also provide me with your
direct telephone and fax numbers for easy
communication.
Yours Truly,
MR INGRID SMITH

OFFICE OF REVD.FR THOMAS DOUGLAS
DIRECTOR SPECIAL DUTIES, UNITED NATIONS ORGANISATION
IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND
WORLD BANK FACT-FINDING & SPECIAL DUTIES OFFICE
DAKAR, SENEGAL.
TEL: +221 4183317
Email:Revdouglas@mail2world.com
Dear Friend.
I am Revd. Fr. Thomas Douglas, a senior staff with the World Bank fact finding &
special duties office. I am writing you this letter based on the fact that cool
penny is better than millions of dollars means it's better for one to live and
die poor honest man than a rich dishonest one.
I and the Chief security officer (CSO) of this organisation have arranged with
an officer in the computer section the person of Engineer Peter Cliff to bring
out part of your total pending payment with reference number (LM-05-371)
amounting to US$10 million. Why we did this is because according to information
gathered from the bank▓s security computer, you have been waiting for a long
time to receive this payment without success. As I found out that you have
almost met all the statutory requirements in respect of your pending payment.
The problems you are having is that of interest groups. A lot of people are
interested in your payment and those people are merely doing paper works with
you and that explains why you receive different kinds of untrue fax and phone
messages from different people everyday. Also we found out that some of the
officials of the parastatals have been extorting a lot of money from you with
the pretext of helping you receive your money. I can assure you this will keep
happening if you do not do away with those officers. For security reasons you do
not have to tell anybody that your have your payment on the way until the
payment gets to you.
The said payment is been arranged in a security-proof box weighing 75kg. In
order to get this box shipped to you I and the (CSO) Yesterday went to this four
courier companies Dhl, Ems, FedEx and Ups to make arrangements on how to get the
box shipped to you by courier, but to no avail the above courier companies all
made us to understand that they will have to open the box for inspection by the
customs before shipment. This is something we want to avoid because this box is
been padded with synthetic nylon and to open it you will have to cut the pad
before you will meet the button that you will press to open the dial code-lock.
There is no way you can open the box and be able to close it again because it
was padded with machine. We told the courier services that the box contained
film materials and when open will spoil the materials. <N: B> we did not declare
money because courier does not carry money.
Today a friend of mine who is a diplomat disclosed to me that there is a
security courier service company that is specialised in sending diplomatic
materials and information from one country to another, which also has diplomatic
immunity and consignment such as this cannot be checked by any customs anywhere
in the world. I have therefore met the official of the security courier service
and concluded shipping arrangement with them, which they will commence as soon
as I have your go ahead order. The diplomat who will be bring in this
consignment to you is an expert and has been in this line of work for many years
now so we have Notting to worry about. After all arrangements we have concluded
that you must donate Five Hundred Thousand United States dollars (US$500,000.00)
to any charity organisation I designate as soon as you receive your money. To
this effect, you will send to us a promissory note for the donation along with
your address where you will like the box to be delivered to by the courier.
Please maintain topmost secrecy as it may cause a lot of problems if found out
that we are using this way to help you. You are advised not to inform anyone
about this until you received your money. Am helping you on this because
something in me is tells me that you are an honest person. When you conclude
this and you send our promise, we will help to ship the final part of your money
to you.
May God be with you as i wait for your response Feel free to call me if you will
like us to discuses more on this TEL: +221 4183317.
Yours Faithfully

05-19-2006 This one claims that I responded which I never did. He claims to have 7.5 million dollars.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have been waiting for your response after my initial message to you concerning
a very important
and urgent matter. As you responded that you will get back to me, or maybe that
was your auto-
responder, I am resending the same message again with hope that you will give it
a fair and considerable
thought.
This involves transferring to your overseas account the sum of ($7.5M US
Dollars) seven million five hundred
thousand dollars, from one of the Fidelity Finance & Security Company here in
Dakar-Senegal.
I am Jamil A. Troure the Auditor General in the Fidelity finance & Security
Company here in Dakar Senegal,
During the course of our auditing , I discovered a floating fund in an account
opened since 1982 and till date
no body has operated or filed papers to claim the fund.
After going through the records I discovered that the owner of the account, Engr.
Mahmoud Hisham, an
Iraqi oil merchant, died in the month of October 2005 in an auto crash. Since
there was not infomation concerning
additional members of his family, next of kin or known relation, the fund has
been declared floating and if nobody
comes forward for it, will be forfeited to the government.
Since I hardly know any foreigner, I am only contacting you as a foreigner to
stand and apply as his next of kin because
this money can only be approved to a foreigner as his next of kin or business
partner.
I need your full co-operation to make this work fine because the management is
ready to approve this payment to any
foreigner who has correct information of this account, which I will give to you
upon your positive response and once I am
convinced of your capability and assurance that you will never never let me
down.
At the conclussion of this project ,we may proceed into an investment as equal
partners with you in charge, pending my
resignation from the company, but method of sharing profit should be based on
15% for you and rest for me
and my colleague.
Regarding moral justification of the fund ,i wouldn't want you to consider it
sinful. If you had being the victim ,Certainly you
wouldn't be happy having your hard earned fund shared among government as an
unclaimed deposit I believe they are
many other aspects of life we may contribute with this fund to help the less
priveledged and the needy in our society .
Furnish me with your direct telephone & Fax number for easy comminucation and
please reply to me on this emails:
jamil_troure02@yahoo.com
jamil_troure@she.com
I look forward to your earliest response.

FROM THE DESK OF MR KEN PATRICK
ACCOUNTANT BARCLAYS BANK PLC LONDON
EMAIL: pjk1@caramail.com
TEL:+447783923312
NEXT OF KIN REQUESTED
Dear Friend,
Compliment of the season to you.This mail will definitely be coming to you as a
surprise, but I must crave
your indulgence to introduce myself to you,am MR KEN PATRICK an accountant,
barclays bank plc
London.
However I got your contact through the International web directory.During our
recent
investigation,reconciliation and auditing of the bank's account my department
discovered a dormant
account with a huge amount of Money Valued $36,000.000.00 (thirty-six Million,
Dollars) that belongs to
One of our late Customer MR. Schmuck Scott, from Beverwijk, Netherlands,who died
with his family in a
plane crash 14 years ago. So the fund has been dormant in his account with my
Bank without any claim
of the fund in our custody either, from his Family or relation before Our
discovery to this development.The
Banking law here stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed for 15 years,
it will be forfeited to the
Bank Treasury as an unclaimed bill. It is only a foreigner that can stand as a
next of kin and it is upon this
discovery that I decided to contact you to collaborate with you to pull out this
dormant fund.In order to
avert this negative development, i now seek your permission, to have you stand
in as next of kin to Our
late Customer so that the fund will be released and paid into your account as
the beneficiary?s next.of
kin now that the bank is still expecting a next of kin or relative of the
deceased, MR. Schmuck Scott.
I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this country as
civil servants, we are not
allowed to operate a foreign account and that would eventuall raise an eye brow
on my side during the
time of transfer since i still work in this bank,this is the actual reason.
However, on smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 20%
of the total fund, while
10% will be set aside to take care of expenses on both sides that may arise
during the time of transfer
and also for telephone bills, and the remaining 70% will be for me.What I want
from you is for you to act
as the deceased next of kin. I have in my possession, all the necessary
Documents to successfully
accomplish the operation and also bear in mind that this transaction purely
legal and is 100% risk free.
Further Information will be given to you as soon as I receive your positive
response.
Best Regards,
MR KEN PATRICK.

wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates, that i should
seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where i will
transfer this money and use it for investment purpose. (Such as real
estate management).
Moreover, I am willing to offer you 20% of the total sum as
compensation for your effort input after the successful transfer

05-11-2006 This one claims to have 7.5 million
dollars.
Dear Friend,
I am pleased to introduce a business opportunity that will be beneficial to
both you and me. It involves transferring to your overseas account the sum of
($7.5;US Dollars) Seven Thousand, Five Hundred Dollars, from one of the Fidelity
Finance & Security Company here in Dakar-Senegal.
I am Jamil A. Troure the Auditor General in the Fidelity finance
& Security Company here in Dakar Senegal west Africa, During the course of
our auditing , I discovered a floating fund in an account opened since 1982 and
till date no body has operated or filed papers to claim the fund.
After going through the records I discovered that the owner of the account,
Engr. Mahmoud Al-Salem Shafiq an Iraqi oil merchant, died in the month of
October 2005
in an auto crash. Since there was not infomation concerning additional members
of
his family, next of kin or known relation, the fund has been declared
floating and if nobody comes forward for it, will be forfeited to the
government.
Since I hardly know any foreigner,I am only contacting you as a foreigner
to stand and apply as his next of kin because this money can not be approved to
a local person here as his next of kin.
I need your full co-operation to make this work fine because the management
is ready to approve this payment to any foreigner who has correct
information of this account, which I will give to you upon your positive
response and once I am convinced of your capability and assurance that you
will never never let me down.
At the conclussion of this project ,we may proceed into an investment as
equal partners with you in charge, pending my resignation from the company,
but method of sharing profit should be based on 15% for you and rest for me
and my colleague.
Regarding moral justification of the fund ,i wouldn't want you to consider
it sinful. If you had being the victim ,Certainly you wouldn't be happy
having your hard earned fund shared among government as an unclaimed deposit
I believe they are many other aspects of life we may contribute with this
fund to help the less priveledged and the needy in our society .
Furnish me with your direct telephone & Fax number for easy comminucation and
please reply to me on this emails:
jamil_troure01@yahoo.com
jamil_troure@she.com
I look forward to your earliest response.

05-08-2006 This one claims to have 14.8 million
pounds.
Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Mush Bolkiah, the eldest son of Prince Jefri Bolkiah, former Finance
Minister of Brunei, the tiny oil-rich sultanate on the Gulf Island of Borneo.
I will save your time by not amplifying my extended royal family history, which
has already been disseminated by the international media during the
controversial dispute that erupted between my father and his stepbrother, the
sultan of Brunei Sheik Muda Hassanal Bolkiah. As you may know from the
international media, the sultan had accused my father of financial mismanagement
and impropriety of US$14.8 billion dollars.
This was as a result of the Asian financial crisis that made my father company
Amedeo Development Company and government owned Brunei Investment Company to be
declared bankrupt during his tenure in office. However my father was kept under
house arrest, his ban! k accounts and private properties including a crude oil
export refinery were later confiscated by the sultanate. Furthermore during this
unfortunate period, I was advised to evacuate my immediate family outside the
sultanate to avoid further prosecution from the sultan and his security
operatives, but before I could do that I was placed under house arrest by the
Sultan, but I have a Palm V hand-held computer from which I am sending you this
mail. Some of the guards here are still loyal to me.
Before my Incaseration, I went ahead to dispatch the sum of Twenty Million
United States Dollars (US$20,000,000.00) in left in a fixed/suspense account in
one of the Firm here In Dakar Senegal.
Please if you know you can assist in claiming and investing it in real
estate/property to guarantee the future survival of my family, contact me fast
so that I'll give you contact information of the Firm here In Dakar Senegal
where the funds was deposited. For your assistance i will compensate you with
25% of the total sum and another 2% shall be set aside to defray any expenses
that may arise. Please I count on your absolute confidentiality, transparency
and trust while looking forward to your prompt reply towards a swift conclusion
of this business transaction through my email address as follows:
mush@ParsiMail.com
Thanks & May Allah's blessings remain with you.
Please I await your prompt reply.
I remain yours sincerely,
Mr. Mush Bolkiah.

04-29-2006 This one claims to have $8,350,000.00
Good day,
I am david scott, staff of International Private
Banking at Bristol & West Bank. I am contacting you
concerning a deceased customer and an investment he
placed under our banks management three years ago. I
would respectfully request that you keep the contents
of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of
the information you come by as a result of this mail.
I contacted you independently of our investigation and
no one is informed of this communication. I would like
to intimate you with certain facts that I believe
would be of interest to you. In 2000, the subject
matter; came to our bank to engage in business
discussions with our private banking division. He
informed us that he had a financial portfolio of eight
million three hundred and fifty thousand united states
dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest)
on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his case;
I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as
the de-facto chief operations officer of the private
banking sector, especially given the volume of funds
he wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous
occasions prior to any investments being placed. I
encouraged him to consider various growth funds with
prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to
customers is to start by assessing data on 6000
traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers
of alternative investments. Based on my advice, we
spun the money around various opportunities and made
attractive margins for our first months of operation,
the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at
over ten million United States Dollars, this margin
was not the full potential of the fund but he desired
low risk guarantied returns on investments.
In mid 2001, he asked that the money be liquidated
because he needed to make an urgent investment
requiring cash payments in here in the United Kingdom.
He directed that I liquidate the funds and deposit it
with a security firm in here London. I informed him
that HSBC would
have to make special arrangements to have this done
and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank
would have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to
cater for banking and statutory charges. He complained
about the charges but later came around when I
explained to him the complexities of the task he was
asking of us. Cash movement across boarders has become
especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. I
contacted my affiliate in here in London and made the
funds available to the security firm. I undertook all
the processes and made sure I followed his precise
instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited
at the London based security consultancy firm, Mayfair
Securities Co. Mayfair Securities Co is a specialist
private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth
individuals and blue chip corporations that handle
valuable products or undertake transactions that need
immediate access to cash. This small and highly
private organization is familiar especially to the
highly placed and well-connected organizations. In
line with instructions, the money was deposited with
Mayfair Securities Co. The deceased told me he wanted
the money there in anticipation of his arrival from
Norway later that week. This was the last
communication we had, this transpired around 25th
February 2003.
In June last year, we got a call from Mayfair
Securities Co informing us that the activity of that
particular portfolio. This was an astounding position
as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I
managed the private banking sector I was the only one
who knew about the deposit at Mayfair Securities Co,
and I could not understand why the deceased had not
come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile
efforts to locate the deceased. I immediately passed
the task of locating him to the internal
investigations department of Bristol & West. Four days
later, information started to trickle in, apparently
our client was dead. A person who suited his
description was declared dead of a heart attack in
Cannes, South of France.
We were soon enough able to identify the body and
cause of death was confirmed. The bank immediately
launched an investigation into possible surviving next
of kin to alert about the situation and also to come
forward to claim his estate. If you are familiar with
private banking affairs, those who patronize our
services usually prefer anonymity, but also some
levels of detachment from conventional processes. In
his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the
field of private banking, opening an account with us
means no one will know of its existence, accounts are
rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and
codes to make the accounts anonymous. This bank also
gives the choice to depositors of having their mail
sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that
there are no traces of the account and as I said,
rarely do they nominate next of kin. Private banking
clients apart from not nominating next of kin also
usually in most cases leave wills in our care, in this
case; the deceased died without a testate.
In line with our internal processes for account
holders who have passed away, we instituted our own
investigations in good faith to determine who should
have right to claim the estate. This investigation has
for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned
every continent and used our private investigation
affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem.
It is this investigation that resulted in my being
furnished with your details as a possible relative of
the deceased. My official capacity dictates that I am
the only party to supervise the investigation and the
only party to receive the results of the
investigation. What this means, you being the last
batch of names we have considered, is that our dear
late fellow died with no known or identifiable family
member. This leaves me as the only person with the
full picture of what the prevailing situation is in
relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of
the deposit.
According to practice, Mayfair Securities Co will by
the end of this financial year broadcast a request for
statements of claim to Bristol & West, failing to
receive viable claims they will most probably revert
the deposit back to Bristol & West. This will result
in the money entering the Bristol & West accounting
system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and
out of the private banking division. This will not
happen if I have my way. What I wish to relate to you
will smack of unethical practice but I want you to
understand something. It is only an outsider to the
banking world who finds the internal politics of the
banking world aberrational. The world of private
banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for
those who occupy certain offices and oversee certain
portfolios. You should have begun by now to put
together the general direction of what I propose. I
alone have the deposit details and they will release
the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so.
I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as
far as Bristol & West is concerned, the transaction
with our late customer concluded when I sent the funds
to Mayfair securities, all outstanding interactions in
relation to the file are just customer services and
due process. Mayfair Securities Co has no single idea
of what's the history or nature of the deposit. They
are simply awaiting instructions to release the
deposit to any party that comes forward. This is the
situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money
trying to track this man's family; they have
investigated for months and have found no family. The
investigation has come to an end. My proposal; you
share similar details to the late fellow; I am
prepared to place you in a position to instruct
Mayfair Securities Co to release the deposit to you as
the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the
deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in
half. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next
of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We
share the proceeds 50/50.I would have gone ahead to
ask the funds be released to me, but that would have
drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in
claiming the deposit. I assure you that I could have
the deposit released to you within a few days. I will
simply inform the bank of the final closing of the
file relating to the deceased I will then officially
communicate with Mayfair Securities Co and instruct
them to release the deposit to you. With these two
things: all is done. The alternative would be for us
to have Mayfair Securities Co direct the funds to
another bank with you as account holder. This way
there will be no need for you to think of receiving
the money from Mayfair Securities Co. We can fine-tune
this based on our interactions. I am aware of the
consequences of this proposal. I ask that if you find
no interest in this project that you should discard
this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and
destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you,
delete this message and forget I ever contacted you.
Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of
my proposal.
You may not know this but people like myself who have
made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the
whole private banking sector. I am not a criminal and
what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this
may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of
my industry dictates that I make this move. Such
opportunities only come ones' way once in a lifetime.
I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find
myself in total control of my destiny. These chances
won't pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my
chance, if you will not work with me let me know and
let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I
am a family man and this is an opportunity to provide
them with new opportunities. There is a reward for
this project and it is a task well worth undertaking.
I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have
here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting
my bank. I am the only one who knows of this
situation, good fortune has blessed you with a name
that has planted you into the center of relevance in
my life. Let's share the blessing. If you find
yourself able to work with me, contact me through this
same email account. If you give me positive signals, I
will initiate this process towards a conclusion. I
wish to inform you that should you contact me via
official channels; I will deny knowing you and about
this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting
me through my official phone lines nor do I want you
contacting me through my official email account.
Contact me only through the numbers I will provide for
you and also through this email address. I do not want
any direct link between you and me. My official lines
are not secure lines as they are periodically
monitored to assess our level of customer care in line
with our Total Quality Management Policy.
Please observe this instruction religiously. Please,
again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and
children. I send you this mail not without a measure
of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within
me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that
success and riches never come easy or on a platter of
gold. This is the one truth I have learnt from my
private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence.
If we can be of one accord, we should plan a meeting
soon.
I await your response.
David Scott.
