SCAMMER IN BRIEF:

Miss. Astu Daima, 24 years old woman from the Liberia, parents were killed by rebels during the civil war. Fled the country and found her way to the refugee camp in Dakar, Senegal. The late father (Dr. James Daima) had been a substantial bank deposit ($3.7 million US dollars) with the English/Scottish bank. Miss. Astu is the bank deposit's designated the next of kin (beneficiary). However, she can't withdraw the money from her late father's bank account. The financial governing laws of the Senegal states, the persons with the refugee status are not allowed to participate personally into any monetary transaction or to operate with a bank account overseas or locally. The bank had guided her to obtain a foreign trustee/guardian, who would claim for the deposit on her behalf so that the wire transaction of the inherited funds to the trustee/guardian's bank account would be possible. Trustee/guardian's commission and allowance would be 20%. The trustee/guardian would obtain the travel documents for her so that she can re-locate to live over to him and start new better life.

She obtained the lawyer (Barrister (Dr.) Kibara Baidoo) to drafting the power of attorney and the affidavit of oath according to the bank's procedure of the wire transaction. Miss. Astu would sign the documents for the Federal High Court, lawyer would representing the trustee/guardian and sign the documents on behalf him. The costs of the Federal High Court and the lawyer's fee was totally €850 EURO and should been pay immediately via Western Union or Money Gram money transfer.

Subject: I will like to know more about you‏‏‏

Good day,

I am very sorry if i may violate your policy or in any way hurt your feelings by intruding into your privacy, actually it's true that I don't know you in person and it's not compulsory that you must help me, but before that I will like you to make sure you keep this business secret and confidential if you are interested to help me out.

I am Miss Astu Daima, 24 years old, Liberia by nationality and the only daughter of my late parents Dr. James Daima. I lost both parents in the war that took place in my country Liberia last time. I am the only surviving member of the family since other relatives were killed in the war. This led to my escape to Senegal now where i am staying as a refugee under the United Nations Refugee Commission.

Listen to this: My late father has the sum of ($3.7 Million US DOLLARS) Three million seven hundred thousand USD in a bank and he used my name to deposit as the next of kin being the only child. The law of this country does not permit any refugee to deal directly with banks, so due to my refugee status, I will like you to stand as my partner to transfer it to your account, Your suggestions and ideas will be highly regarded. Now permit me to ask these few questions:

1. Can you honestly help me as your daughter or friend?
2. Can I completely trust you?
3. What percentage of the total amount will be good for you after the money is in your position?

I am anxiously waiting for your urgent response so that i will give you the bank's details where the money is deposited. I add my photo for you to know me more.

Kind regards.
Miss Astu.

ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND PLC
Head/office: 36 St Andrew Square Edinburgh, SCO EH2 2YBP Scotland.
Date: 04-11-2014

For your kind attention Mr. "xxxxxx".

I have been directed by the Director of Financial Officer/Wire transfer to write you in respect to your partner's mail which we received earlier. Actually the Executive Board Management of RBS has earlier been informed about you by the young lady the next of kin (Ms. Astu Daima) that she wishes you to be her trustee/representative for the claim of her late father's deposit with this bank.

Her late father (Dr. James Daima) is one of our late customers with some substantial amount with our bank here in Scotland. Hence you have been really appointed as a trustee to represent the next of kin. However before our bank will transact any business concerning the transfer of the fund to your bank, we will like you to send the followings immediately to our bank.

1. A power of attorney permitting you to claim and transfer the funds to your bank account on her behalf,

2. The death certificate of her deceased father confirming his death.

3. A deposit certificate of this fund issued to her late father by our bank.

4. An affidavit of oath support from Senegalese high court.

5. The full information of your bank account i.e your bank name, address, account name and account number, including your bank telephone number, fax number, where you want our bank to transfer the fund,

This Power of attorney and affidavit oath of support must be endorsed by a Senegalese lawyer. (Since the money originated from Africa and the young lady is currently residing in Senegal)

Note: The above required documents are compulsory, and are needed to protect our interest, yours and the next of kin after the transfer has been made. These shall also ensure that a smooth, quick and successful transfer of the fund is made. As you provide all the necessary required documents the transaction of this fund will be made to your account within 48 hrs,

Should you have any question (s) please contact our Chairman Executive Operational/Director of Finance Officer Mr. Stephen Hester through his telephone number +447031889225 or email for more clarifications and directives.

Yours Faithfully.
Mr. Stephen Hester.
Chairman/executive director of finance.

Subject: Dear please contact this lawyer today for the needed documents‏‏‏

My dearest, i hope you are fine. I am really glad to read from you and to read the bank's response. Honestly my dear, it is my heart desire to leave this bad situation and come to be with you. Look at my photos, i know that i am good looking from what my friends say and i was born and brought up in wealth, but here i am begging for food and cloths, depending on humanitarians to live.

Your email has truly given me fresh hope and i see myself leaving this bad situation to live a comfortable life again. I am convinced that you are an honest person and i have no doubt that you will live up to your words. You can call me any time from 9.00 to 17 GMT London time because Senegal shares same time zone with London. I hope you can be able to work out the difference.

Our priest has helped us in finding a lawyer to get us the power of attorney and affidavit of oath as the bank demands and he told me that this lawyer is the best financial lawyer here in Senegal. I have even submitted the deposit certificate of the fund and the death certificate of my late father to the lawyer as he demanded to initiate and register the transaction with the federal high court here. He gave me the contact of the lawyer.

I want you to contact the lawyer telling him that you are my foreign partner, that you need his services to prepare a power of attorney that will enable you transfer my money to your account on my behalf, due to my refugee status. I have also instructed him to send you copies of all the 4 documents immediately he has got the power of attorney and affidavit of oath from the high court.
The lawyer's contact information is as follows:

His contact detail is:
Barrister Dr. Kibara Baidoo.
Tel: +221775386439
E-mail: [email protected]

Please don't fail to do this immediately. I look forward to reading from you as soon as you contact him.

Thanks.
Your darling,
Astu.

Take care of yourself and have a nice day. waiting to hear from you as soon as you contact him. God bless you and your family.

REF: JLC/01541 YOUR REF: LMC /0549, Case No; 015181/013. Ur Ref; Letter of Authorization. 07/11/2014.

Attention,

Sequel to your request to issue to you an authorization letter for you and your partner that will enable you to stand on your partner's behalf to transfer her money from Royal Bank of Scotland PLC to your account in your country or elsewhere.

Prior to my inquiries from the bank to ascertain the authenticity and legality of such transaction, I was made to understand by the bank that there are 4 documents required by them before the transfer of the money to your account.

1. A copy of the deposit certificate.
2. The death certificate of late Engr. Felix Houphouet Kada.
It's now remaining:
3. A power of attorney, and
4. An affidavit of oath which will enable the bank to deal with you on behalf of your partner.

In view of the above and from my inquiries from the high court here in Dakar Senegal today, it will cost the sum of 200 Euro for authentication of the power of attorney, 200 Euro for swearing of the affidavit of oath at the federal high court here before it becomes valid, 200 Euro for notary stamping at the notary office (before it will go out from Senegal here) and our legal processing fee of 250 Euro.

Total (850 Euro only) to get everything done.

You are to send the money today through Western Union Money Transfer or Moneygram in the name of my accountant:

Name: Mrs. Flora Kabara.
Address: 105 rue Amadou Ndoye,
Dakar Senegal.

Thank you for allowing us serve you.
