"Hi,

I am now owing a hotel bill of £1050 and they wanted me to pay the bill soon else they will have to seize my bag and hand me over to the Hotel Management., I need this help from you urgently to help me back home,need you to help me with the hotel bill and i will also need £1600 to feed and help myself back home so please can you help me with a sum of £2650 to sort out my problems here.I am sending you this e-mail from the Hotel i am staying and I only have 30 min, I will appreciate what so ever you can afford to send me for now and I promise to pay back your money as soon as i return home, so please let me know on time so that i can forward you the details you need to transfer the money through Money Gram or Western Union.
Please get back to me as soon as possible, I really need you to help me out of this situation.

"I am so sorry to hear about your terrible predicament. I am very worried about the safety of wiring you any money but happy to send you my bank details so hopefully you can withdraw enough money to cover the hotel bill, If you need more then I'll have too visit the Bank on Monday to arrange a transfer.
I hope the weather is nice in Nigeria becuase its awful back at home.
What are you doing in Africa, is it a wedding or are you buying flowers?
Much Love Jules"

"Sorry for the late reply,i was unable to reply to your mail earlier due to the fact the Hotel manager is angry with me and i don't know what to do,he only allow me to check my mail once in a day,Thanks for the mail and i do appreciate that you want to send me your bank details so that i can withdraw the money needed to come back home,i would have loved to do as you wish but i can't due to the fact that the connection here is bad as i can't access my account here because the connection says error and interuted.
Please kindly transfer the money to me through Western Union money transfer or Money Gram so as to enable me to get back home in time,the reason why i want you to send me the money through Western Union is that they are fast and reliable and scam free.
If you send me the money and scan the receipt that will be given to you in the Western Union outlet,i will easily cash the funds here and will pay my bills because the weather here is bad and i can't get myself as i'm having fever,please get back to me and just to let you know that am facing serious embarassment here,the hotel manager told me last night that if i don't pay the hotel bill by Monday he will easily sent me out and that will be a shame me on me,please don't let me down,i'm afriad because i might be sent out of the hotel if you don help me and please assure me that you are going to send me the money on Monday.
Here's my details below :-
Receiver's Name :- ******
Receiver's Address :- 109 Campus Cresent,Ebute Metta
23401,Nigeria
Text Question :- What for
Text Answer :- Emergency
I'll be expecting you to get back to me with the sender's name and address or you can scan and attach the receipt to me.
Hope to hear from you.
God bless"

Scamming the scammers is always the best policy 419eaters gave me hours of entertainment a couple of years back
The time they spend replying to people scamming them is time they arent spending fleecing someone who really is retarded enough to fall for the tripe they send so keep up the good work and think of it as charity work because you are saving the hard earned cash of the "special people"

Quick update; day 3 of the Nigerian Scam
Helen, you really don't sound like yourself. You must be terribly ill. Would you like me to send you your medication by DHL? I have arranged to take time off work tomorrow morning to sort out the money.
Are you on your own or is your mum with you?
Stay calm and remember we are all keeping you in our prayers. I bet Nigerian telly is crap!
Lol Jules x
Good Morning,
I'll like you to please keep me updated on what's going on.
Hope to hear from you
Hi Helen
I hope we find you in good spirits and you are feeling better than yesterday, I pray it's not the malaria that has not taken a hold.
Good and bad news for today.
I went to the bank today but during the night we've had a minor earthquake, which set off the fire alarms and the sprinkler system has wet all the money, so the bank was closed today. The bank manager Mr Uve Binhad says tomorrow should be Ok to wire the money to West Union Bank so first thing I'll send a email with the paperwork.
While at work I spoke with Mr Barder who by coincidence has a small transport plane travelling to Lagos in Nigeria to collect some leather handbags. If you can get yourself to Lagos airport for Thursday I'm sure Douglas would be able to squeeze you onto his small plane, it's a Fokker with a pretty green & brown colur with some red and blue dots on it.
Mr Bader says that Lagos is famous for handbags and I wonder if once we've sorted out the payment you could bring some back with you, we might even be able to make a small profit. If you are bored you could visit the local markets and estabilish if this is possible.
Anyway must dash as I have to meet Anett Kurtain she just does not seem able to pull herself together at moment.
