Skype scam

And you thought Nigerians had the monopoly on "foreign investor needed for super-safe bank transfer of tragically lost millions" scam.

"[23:24:31] silver abbas says: Good day,

Please I crave your indulgence in reading through my mail to understand
my predicaments.My names are silver Abbas, i am a Sudanese by
nationality but presently i live in Accra Ghana with my mother and my
kid sister as refugees,since the political crisis in our country Sudan
that took the life of my father who was a wealthy business man and a
opposition politician to the present regime in our beloved country
Sudan

The main reason why I am contacting you now is to seek your assistance
in the area of my future investment and also for a helping hand over
some huge amount of money my late father deposited for me as next of
kin. This money amount to ($12.750, 000, 00 USD) Twelve Million Seven
Hundred and Fifty Thousand United State Dollars only, my late father
deposited for me here in Eco Bank Ghana Limited some years ago.

Since we escaped here to Accra after the death of my father, I have
contacted the concern Managements of the Bank so many times but what
they told me was due to our refugee status they will not release the
fund to me,that I should present a foreign partner or a company to
stand on my behalf for the transfer since then we are in search of a
foreign partner to help us retrieve the money from the Bank and also
help us relocate to your country and invest in real estates.
Please help us stand as my foreign partner to make this transfer to you and in time of the investment and we can come and live with you.

We are ready to give you 30% for your assistance.

Thanks and God bless you,

David Abbas.

You can contact me via my private email: silver.abbas@live.com"

Only 30%! I think gullibility is worth more than that, don't you?
