I'm going to be VERY wealthy, just not sure of the bank

ATTENTION: RE-CHANGE OF ACCOUNT

This is in regard to outstanding paying,I am Mr.Mark Richards; the
newly appointed Director United Nations; Legal Affairs,Security and
Investigation,The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (Chief
YAR`ADUA) and his Decision Making Body,

The Executive Arms of the government, has directed me to come down to Nigeria to Investigate your fund and to make sure that we approve all outstanding debts owned to Foreign beneficiaries by the government of Nigeria in this 2 quarter of this fiscal year 2009.

This decision was taken based on the abnormalities and inability of the BANKS in Nigeria to Release your fund into your bank account; Whereby it was discovered that some Directors in Central bank of NIGERIA being the Federal Government of Nigeria were diverting foreign beneficiaries payment to another account of their choice overseas.

In view of this,during our investigation i found out that; an account was submitted to divert your fund to a Germany account. Below is the account submitted and I want you to confirm if you are aware of the new development because we are about effecting payment to the account stated bellow today.

Beneficiary: CERSTIN WENGER SHENOUDA
Bank: FRANKFURTER BANK
A/C No.: 367840545
Swift Code: 50050201

Finally, be informed that a payment instruction has been issued and
forwarded to the Treasury Department of the Federal Government Of Nigeria
in favour of you and your company for immediate release of your; fund
to the account above without any further prejudice.

But there is no way we can approve the fund to your account without you confirming if you have changed your account for your fund to be transfer to the
Beneficiary: CERSTIN WENGER SHENOUDA BANK ACCOUNT IN GERMANY.

Contact me immediately for further clarification. to know if you have
giving instruction to transfer your fund to the above account today.

On behalf of the entire management of United Nations, we are congratulating you in advance and if you fail to contact this office on or before 24hrs from now then we will now wire the fund to the German account. Thanks for your co-operation.

waiting for your urgent response
Yours faithfully Mr.Mark Richards

Unfortunately people fall for these scams everyday despite the fact that the English is so stilted and spelling mistakes scream at you. Such mistakes as "bellow" for below!

Ignore ANYTHING from Nigeria.

Too many people fall for this type of thing. South Africa is currently overwhelmed with doctors, lawyers, engineers and the likes with their degrees obtained from Nigerians. In the industry i am in (mining) the false qualifications often are discovered only after a major accident has occured. Please don't sgream at my spelling....I'm better at figures than I am with words!

I really should send him a reply. I get 2 or 3 a day my filter usually blocks them.
This one got through I read it even though I new it was a scam. I just got a kick out of "Frankfurter Bank".

I would not be surprised if the funds were drawn on "Spaulding National". Wasn't there trade mark "we bounce higher"

If you start reporting them as I layed out in that link, you will be surprised at how few you get. I used to get them all the time. Now I can't remember when the last time I got one was.
