"With respect, I seek your consent..."


          

Nnniiiiice Of course, you've all seen this before.
I got this same one from another guy named Dr. Mike Chikelu. Thought you'd all get a "kick" outta this! Isn't SPAM great? No, I mean the REAL SPAM, you know... comes in a can, has snot-like substance around it? }>

Subject: WITH RESPECT I SEEK YOUR CONSENT.




Dear Sir,

I have been instructed by my colleagues to look for
partners who can assist us execute an urgent business transaction
involving huge profits and international cooperation.

We are interested in the importation of Solar Panels,
Agricultural equipment and computer accessories. We need a foreign
partner who can assist us with the transaction involving US$21 320 000.00,
which has been set-aside
in an escrow account. We have resolved that a negotiable percentage
will be your commission for participating in this transaction on our
behalf and any other assistance you may give in this deal. A percentage will
also be set aside from the entire sum to settle any expenses we may
incur in the cause on these transactions.

My colleagues and I are civil servants and as such, it
is not possible for any of us to operate a foreign account directly;
hence we are soliciting your support. We propose to finalize the
transaction in ten working days.


If this proposal is accepted please respond to us via
e-mail to enable us provide you with the detailed modalities for the
successful completion of the project. I would also suppose you'd prefer a
voice contact which
requires sending your telephone and fax numbers to
facilitate the various processes.There is no risk involved we just need
an international contact.Moreso,it
will be of great importance you provide me with your
telephone/fax details,so we can have a more detailed conversation
regarding the whole project.

Finally, if you are not interested in this proposal, I
apologize on behalf of myself and my colleagues for any inconvenience.

Yours Sincerely,

CHARLES CHIKELU.

Gee, I think I'll get my account and contact info out right now!! }>

This one, has already, or a form of it has already been busted. Usually they say they're coming from Africa. Saw a thing on 60 minutes or some such where they actually lured the guy into the country to make a money pick-up and he went to the pokey.

I wonder if it would be possible to con the cons and agree to their deal if they would wire some good faith money, up front?

I recently saw something where a lady led them on like she was really going for it, and then she dropkicked them to the curb (so to speak). I don't know where that link is now, but it was pretty good how she got them to believe her. Then she put the smack down on them.
