Default Who would fall for this?

Greetings dear.

I hope this message meet you in good faith

I humbly write to solicit for your partnership to assist me transfer and investment of my inheritance funds (€ 8,700, 000, 00 Euro) from my late father. I am Ms. Lansana Jeneba, and am the only child of my late parents. Please I decided to contact you for this offer based on trust and your understanding hoping that you will find it interesting to assist me with your good mind.

It was very eventful that my father died mysteriously and according to the culture and tradition here when a man dies, if he does not have a male child, the brother takes his property leaving the wife and the daughters empty handed. This is the exact case with me as I am the only daughter, I lost my mother when I was barely a year old and my father refused to re-marry despite all persuasion by friends and relatives, because he felt solely responsible for my mother's death, as he only concentrated on his business that he rarely pays attention to family affairs, He ensured that I will had everything that I wanted. It was as a result that he made me the next of kin to his fund deposit with the bank and stated that in the event of any eventuality, I should have a direct access to the funds only when I am 25 years, otherwise I should have a guardian to intercede on my behalf for the release of the funds for investments purpose.

Unfortunately he passed away and I am not up to the age as bank stated in the agreement with my late father, of which the reason the bank have refuse me direct access from this funds despite my present predicaments, This is the reason I am contacting you to stand and intercede on my behalf as guardian, so that bank can release and transfer this fund to your bank account for investments in your country.

I don't want people to take advantage of me that is why I decided to written you for the first place to seek for you're trustworthy and your concern to stand on my behalf to intercede and retrieve the fund to your bank account,

Please kindly indicate your interest to proceed with me if you can be of assistance for this offer. I am willing to offer you 20% from the total fund for your kind assistance once the fund is retrieved and secured to your account.

Please endeavor to let me know your decision to proceed.

Regards
Jeneba

Anyone over age 30 who does NOT know of this Nigerian scam needs to yank their head out of the sand (or wherever else they've plunged it). And if they refuse, they need to contact me so I can intervene on their behalf and open up a bank account just so they can help this poor young woman out. I just need $1500 in Amazon gift cards.

For those who are considering the offer, that's equal to:

$10,524,511.80 x 0.20 = $2,104,902.36.

Never underestimate the stupidity and ignorance of some people. I will read a story about a Darwin award nominee's stunt and think how stupid can you be but there is always someone even more stupid that I hear about the next day.

This is a classic that’s been around since about 1987.
