My evil stepmother
Latifa Dogba
Dear Friend,
Please, I decided to contact you because of the urgency of my situation here and with this, let me introduce myself. I am Miss. Latifa Dogba(24yrs.)The Daughter of Late Dr Leki Dogba,who died during the Cote D' Ivoire civil disturbances in 2004.I am constrained to contact you because of the maltreatment I,m receiving from my step mother. She planned to take away all my late father's treasury and properties away from me since the unexpected death of my Father.
Meanwhile I wanted to escape to the United Sates but she stoled my international passport and other valuable travelling documents. But luckily she did not discover where I hid my father?s deposite File where important documents are kept.So I decided to seek for asylum in Dakar Senegal to contact you confidentially from the refugee camp.
She have even closed all my late father's bank accounts just to put me into suffery and starvation. Now I urgently need an assistance of a reputable and trustworthy Foreigner like you to help me receive and subsequently invest on my behalf the sum of US6.500.000.00 (My late father kept in a (A BANK IN EUROPE) before his death. with my name as the next of kin. It therefore became very necessary and urgent that somebody in your foreign position should render a helping hand to safe-guard this fund for me in safe haven over there until my arrival in your country. It is my intention to compensate you with 15% of the total money for your services while 5% will be kept aside for any miscellaneous expenses incurred by both of us and balance kept for some good investments in your country or other country as you may advice me.
This is the reason why I decided to contact you. Please all communications should be through this emai address only for confidential purposes.(latifa_dogba2@yahoo.com)
So the fund being a huge amount of money would require your help as a reputable businessman who can invest in any foreign country outside Africa. As soon as I receive your positive response showing your interest I will give you other details. In the light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely.
Thanking you in advance for your understanding and co-operation.
Yours Sincerely,
Ms.Latifa Dogba.

Dear LatifaYour evil stepmother sounds like a nasty piece of work, stealing your passport and other documents. I too had an evil stepmother, but I managed to escape her clutches with the help of seven friends who hid me in their small, yet fashionable hut in the words. It's a long story involving witches, apples and numerous songs, but luckily we all lived happily ever after.
I fully understand your predicament and would like to help you in this matter. My husband, Prince Cuthbert, has advised me to offer whatever assistance I can to ensure that your fathers funds are returned to you as soon as possible.
Kind regardsS White

Heigh ho dear Lafita
How terrible for you, only being allowed to go out on Mondays and Fridays! I too have limited access to the outside world, mainly due to an ASBO, but also because of mental health issues.
I gather you're emailing me from Rev. Timothy Esoh's PC? Didn't he used to present a gameshow on BBC2 some years ago?
Religion plays a big part in my life, especially as I've just been confirmed in the holy church of fairytales. My pastor, Rev Tinker Bell, is a guiding light in my life and has often prevented me from going off into nevernever land, a place of no return.
Anyway, there's me prattling on, so I'm off to contact Standard Life and will email you when I have further information.
Regards and lostboysS White
PS: I've asked Father Buster to write to the bank as I'm not very good at dealing with complicated issues.

We have contacted Standard Life to inform them that a fake email address is currently being used in this scam.Our reply
Dear LaiftaOne of the nuns at our church, has asked me to contact Standard life for her, regarding your request for assistance. Sister White has advised me that I should contact you to let you know what is happening as she is not very good with words and is also mentally unstable.
I would like to introduce myself to you by informing you that my name is Father C Buster, chief accountant and assistant fiddler for the Holy Church of Webmail.
Like Sister White, I was most concerned to learn of your predicament, however, our church has a strict policy of not interfering with people life's when they are not of our faith. For this reason, I must request that you agree to join our religion before we can proceed any further?

Our reply
Dearest LaiftaOur religion is based on electronic mail and is Internet dependant, mainly due to our massive worldwide following. We help charitable causes, people in need and genuine cases of server abuse. Our continuing battle against Internet viruses takes up much of time, Father Intel recently contracted one of these viruses and was laid up for weeks, but luckily Sister Celeron caught the symptoms in time, so he's made a full recovery.
Anyway, I've enclosed an application form for you, so if you could return it as soon as possible, we can then continue with this matter.
