<\/a>Some scam spam, derived from the old Nigerian millionaire exile, specifically tied to a recent development in international politics:<\/i><\/p>\n

ATTENTION:<\/p>\n

We have obviously not met and as such you may be astonished to
\nreceive this mail. I am Mrs Jewel Taylor, the wife of the embattled
\nformer
\nPresident of Liberia,<\/p>\n

Charles Taylor. Following the offer of a Political asylum to my husband
\nby the Nigerian<\/p>\n

Government, we arrived here in Abuja on the 11th of August, 2003.<\/p>\n

My husband is now in Calabar in the south eastern part of Nigeria while
\nI, and the rest of the<\/p>\n

family are in an undisclosed location here in Abuja. The reasons why I
\nam
\nhere is to assist in<\/p>\n

the protection of my husband’s scattered and battered investment as
\nwell
\nas liaise with the<\/p>\n

New Home Interim Government, now lead by Moses Blar and the
\ninternational
\ncommunity<\/p>\n

especially the West African Sub-regional Governments.<\/p>\n

Due to the hurried way and manner that characterized my
\nhusband’s exit from office.And coupled with the effect of the on going
\ncivil
\nwar, the activities of<\/p>\n

the rebels and the continuous seizure of my husband’s assets in the
\nWestern
\nworld especially<\/p>\n

in Swiss where over $150m bank investments has been confiscated. I then
\ncarefully concealed<\/p>\n

the sum of $45,000,000.00 (forty five million US Dollars) Which were
\nhidden,
\nand packaged in<\/p>\n

two (2) boxes and the boxes are presently being kept with a Security
\nDeposit
\nHouse as Family<\/p>\n

Treasure and the certificate of Deposit of the Treasures is in our
\npossession
\n,We are appealing<\/p>\n

for urgent assistance to move the fund to your country\/private or
\ncompany
\nbank account or<\/p>\n

any country where you believe the fund will be safe for investment.<\/p>\n

The two boxes containing the above sum in cash were moved out of
\nLiberia a few days ago. The security firm has confirmed the safe
\narrival
\nof the boxes. The<\/p>\n

certificate of deposit issued by the firm is now with me. The content
\nof
\nthe boxes are unknown<\/p>\n

to anyone with the exception of the two of us. The boxes were moved
\nafter
\nbeing marked as<\/p>\n

diplomatic cargos. In such a way that no customs will query the cargo.<\/p>\n

The reason that I write to you now is to request for your in- dept
\nco-operation
\nin claiming this<\/p>\n

cargoes from the Security firms affiliate offices in europe,u.a.e and
\ncanada
\n. Once you have<\/p>\n

declared your intension to help my family with this. I will send you a
\npower
\nof attorney, the<\/p>\n

certificate of deposit and also the address and contact phone and fax
\nnumbers
\nof the company.<\/p>\n

You will be well rewarded for doing our family this favour. 35% will be
\nyours while 5% will be<\/p>\n

sent aside for all possible expenses that may have been incurred in the
\ncourse of the claims.<\/p>\n

The rest 60% will be left for the entire family for nvestment through
\nyour
\nguide in your country.<\/p>\n

Since my movement is restricted by political law of asylum. You will be
\nintroduced to a friend<\/p>\n

and attorney of the family who is presently based in here to assist
\nyou.
\nHe is incidentally our<\/p>\n

family attorney in this country. He is Barrister Bayo Benson,his emails
\naddress will be sent to<\/p>\n

you as soon as you comply to my email.<\/p>\n

I will like to stop so far while hoping to hear from you as soon as it
\nis
\npossible. Like I said<\/p>\n

earlier, you should understand that someone enjoying political asylum
\nin
\nanother man’s<\/p>\n

country is legally bound from any form of economic transaction. This
\nmakes
\nthis ransaction<\/p>\n

very confidential. Please, if you can work with me you must keep my
\nsecret
\nMoreover, the<\/p>\n

family has given you full trust and it will be expected that you will
\nnot
\nlet us down.<\/p>\n

Thanks,<\/p>\n

Yours truly,
\nJEWEL TAYLOR.(For the family)<\/p>\n
