This isn't a way to get money, this is a way to either safely deposit illegal money, or a way to get into the US(Or weherever you may live) legally.

Back in the '96 when I just got in the US for a year, a girl next to my house, who was also freshly off the boat, got a mail informing her that she won 11,000,000 dollars. All they need is her to send them about $15 for shipping and handling cost. They even list the people who won across the country with their contact numbers and everything.

I thought "wow, America. The money come so easy!" This girl is so lucky, she doesn't even do anything.

So my friend sent the $15 dollars money order.

She's still waiting for the $11,000,000.

It could be the early part of an attempted identity theft.

Here's one that I got:

Quote:
FROM : MRS AHLAM ABDUL HAQ

PRAISE ALLAH, THE MOST BENEVOLENT.

I am the above named person from abidjan the capital of ivory coast. I am married to Late mustapha abdu of blessed memory who worked with Kuwait embassy in abidjan for nine
years before he died in the year 2005. We were married for eleven
years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for
only four days.

Before his death we were both very devoted muslims.
His suden death rise my blood presure which now lead to my stroke despite my formal fibroid and tumour which i use to soffer when he was alife . When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum
of$10.Million (ten million U.S. Dollars)
with one of the security company here in abidjan.

Presently, this money is still with the Security Company. Recently,
my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months due
to those problems. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke
sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to
either a moslem organisation or devoted muslim individual that will
utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here-in.
I want this muslim organisation or individual to use this money in all
sincererity to fund mosques, orphanages,widows and also propagating
the word of ALLAH and to ensure that the society upholds the views
and beliefs of the holy Quran.

The holy Quran emphasized so much on ALLAH benevolence and this has
encouraged me to take this bold step. I took this decision because I
dont have any child that will inherit this money and my husband
relatives are new Christians converts and I dont want my husband
hard earned money to be misused by people I call unbelievers.
I dont want a situation where this money will be used in an unholy
manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I know that
after death I will be with ALLAH the most beneficient and the most
merciful.

I dont need any telephone communication in this regard because of my
health because of the presence of my husband relatives around me
always. I dont want them to know about this development.
With ALLAH all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I
shall give you the contact of the Security Company. I will also issue
you a letter of authority that will prove you as the original-
beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the Muslim community where
you reside to always pray for me.

My happiness is that I lived a life of
a true devoted muslim worthy of emulation. Whoever that wants to serve
the ALLAH must serve him in truth and in fairness.
lease always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your
reply will give me room in sourcing For a muslim organisation or a
devoted muslim for this same purpose.
Until I hear from you, my dreams will rest squarely on your shoulders.
May the almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect you. Regards,
MRS AHLAM ABDU HAQ


Praise ALLAH!
