I believe that rule #1 for any criminal is "don't involve people you don't know unless it is to make them the fall guy" This e-mail is an obvious scam because they are asking a complete stranger to handle the money they illegally acquired. If this was real, they wouldn't risk sending this to someone they don't know that might put this on the internet and expose them.
Scam e-mail Below:
From: Mr. Daniel Okonkwo
47 Road C Close House 23,
Dolphin Estate, Ikoyi,
Lagos Nigeria.
Compliment of the day!
I am sorry for contacting you through this medium without any previous notice. I am a senior staff with Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, (NNPC). I and a colleague over-invoiced a contract award to the tune of $8.5MUSD. All arrangement has been concluded on how to transfer this fund into a safe foreign account after the original contractor has been fully paid.
As civil servants, we are not allowed to operate foreign account; this is why I am seeking for your mutual assistance. Please, should you be willing to assist, I will furnish you with the full blue print. There is no risk involved and the fund approval will have a full legal background. Is rest assured this is open and transparency?
Please treat with utmost confidentiality.
Best Regard,
Mr. Daniel Okonkwo
