Larry Adama is trying a dirty deal

I really like using Messengers to make new contacts. Unfortunately this is also the case for the "Africans".

Just a few minutes ago Larry Adama signed off from Yahoo Messenger in a hurry. Could it be he got nervous? I must admit it did seem to take some time for him to realise that I knew what he was trying to convince me of. As the Brit's say "He seems to be a bit thick". Read it and see for yourself:

Kata Bank of Nigeria Ltd,

CONFIDENTIAL LETTER.
Dear friend,
I am the Head of Foreign Operation Department of the Kata Bank of
Nigeria Limited, Lagos. I got your mail ID from the Yahoo Chat Room. I am
writing you this letter to ask for your support and co-operation to
carry out this transaction. We discovered an abandoned Sum of
US$14.8Million (Fourteen Million Eight Hundred Thousand U.S Dollars) in an account
that belongs to one of our foreign customer (Engr. Idris Hussein) who
died along side his entire family in November 1997 in a plane crash in
Lagos. Since this incident, we have advertised for his next of kin or
any close relation to come forward to claim this money, but nobody came
to apply for the claim.

To this effect, we decided to look for a trusted foreign partner who
can stand in as the next of kin to the deceased and claim this money. We
need a foreign partner to apply for the claim because of the fact that
the customer was a foreigner. And we don't want this money to go into
the banks treasure as unclaimed fund. Every document to affect this
process will emanate from my table and I will perfect every documents to be
in accordance with the banking laws and guidelines, so you need not to
worry about this. You are required to provide bank account information
for us to use for this purpose.

We will use normal banking procedure and legal means to transfer the
fund legally and immediately within seven to ten working days. I
therefore, request your absolute secrecy and confidentiality during this
transaction. And you need to assure me that you will not disappoint me after
the fund is successfully transfered into your account.

To assure you of the reality of the transfer, the Certificate of
Deposit the deceased his with our bank and the death certificate is hereby
attached.

We have agreed that 35% of the money will be for you, 5% for expenses
incurred on the both sides while 60% will be for us here. I will send
you the transfer procedure as soon as you indicate your interest. I await
your immediate reply to enable us commence the funds transfer.
Thanks for your anticipated assistance.
Your's faithfully,
Dan Danjuma
Head, Foreign Operations
