Dear Sir,

My name is Steve Hamza direct KTT Wire transfer. i know you do not know me before but after a serious thought, I decided to reach you personally after this Christmas because I do not have anything against you, but your so called partners. I am the director of wire transfer/telex department FOREIGN AFFAIRS with (OAU) and ALL NIGERIA FOREIGN PAYMENT via wire transfer in collaboration with World Bank regards to debt payment.

Sometime ago your so called partner approached me through a friend of mine and requested that I assist him to conclude a money transfer deal with you as the beneficiary. According to him, he wanted us to use this strategy to transfer a huge amount of us dollars by registering you as a beneficiary that is about to be paid as contractor / inheritance. We agreed that once I did that, he will give me 40% of the total fund, 30% for YOU and 30% for himself. Having agreed on that i went ahead and programmed your name on the payment computer as the beneficiary, after doing that, your so called partners started playing pranks with me trying to double cross me because they know that i did not have any legal charges against them, but they refused to understand that the money was still on the way and had not hit your account.

etc BLAH BLAH BLAH................

Same scam. It has been picked up by the anti-fraud community. It is a classic "advanced fee scam " if you continued then you would be required to send the scammer money for fee's and charges etc.

Just a word of caution regarding receiving cheques and money orders etc from scammers. Please do NOT try to cash them, as in some parts of the USA it is an offence to be in POSSESSION of a forged instrument, and can attract a prison term of up to fifteen years, not a happy thought.
