Dear Respectful Sir.
Warm greetings to you and your family in the name of God. I am aware that this is not a formal approach in starting a relationship, but as time goes on, you will realise the need for my approach. My email to you will come as a surprise since i don't know you in person. But if this message comes to you out of your wish, i am very sorry. I hope that you will read through this email and understand how difficult things can be for someone in a particular period in life. I introduce my self to you with all faith, trust and hope you will understand to assist us not to betray us at the end.
My name is Susan,i was 20 Years old when my father died 2 years ago in a gold mine in MENDE, Republic of Sierria Leone. He was into legal gold minning,he has succeded in saving the sum of $9 Miilion U.S.D (Nine million United State Dollars.) in (BOA) being one of the prime banks here in Abidjan during his Business on Gold, before he went on a trip to Republic of Cote D‘Ivoire West Africa near by country to our country to save his money for security reasons because of the political problem in our country.
Since the death of our father our step mother has been trying to kill us, she has been given us a lot of problem and she have collected every thing from us and now she still need the deposit certificate to claim this fund but I can‘t give this to her because this is all we have to leave with. I am 22 years now while my brother Daniel is 20 years old of age and we still need to go to school and have a better education and start a new life.
Our step mother knows that our dad has such money but she don‘t know where exactly the fund is been deposited. Right now we are hiding here in Ivory Coast . Our father used my name "Susan Kalon" as the next of kin to the deposited fund. And we ran away with the deposit document, so nobody have access to the money now except me and my younger brother Daniel.
We need help from you to asist us to transfer this money to your country for investment and you will be sincere to invite us to your country without cheating us or doing bad to us on my arrival with my brother, we are willing to offer you 15% of the total sum after the transfer of this fund into your account in overseas. Please mail me urgently to know your stand before we start looking for help elsewhere, you‘re the first person we are contacting in this issue.

We are kindly requesting for this vital information from you if you agreed to assist us out of our problem: (1) Your full name (2) Your Personal telephone number. I will also want you to tell me more about your self in your reply to my letter to you.
Thank you and God bless you as you help we orphans. Hoping to hear from you soon. I will be expecting your urgent reply, thanks.
My regards

Reasons people respond to scams
Everybody has a weakness, and scammers target this weakness. Furthermore people almost always have a low point in their lives, points were they are in need of more money, love, security and the likes. It’s at this point they are most susceptible to 419 scams.
419ers are coming up with new tricks by the day; these tricks of theirs exploit different vulnerabilities in human behaviour while they apply various deceptive and persuasive techniques to accomplish their task. Reasons why this so called “unprofessional scams” are successful are tied to the following;
Greed-
In the early days of 419, this was apparently the needed prerequisite to falling for such scams. Even today that 419 scams has become over 20 years old, greed is still playing a major role in 419 scams such as fund transfer scams, lottery scams, black money scam, embezzlement scam and investment scam, just to name a few. Individuals, companies or even nations in which greed is inherent in its members to a far greater degree are more susceptible to classic 419 scams. People who would like to make huge sums of money without critically considering the conditions of making such goldmine.
Personalized scam-
419 scams are carried out at a personal level in a bid to make the target believe the offer is unique. Scammers take their time to build a relationship with their targets, in this period of gestation; the scammer notes the key weakness and strength of the targets. Having achieved this the scammer now moves to the aggressive phase-419ers ensure that the scams are well adapted to the needs of each of their targets, putting the strength and weakness of the victim into consideration, hence making it very difficult for the victim to escape as the trust built between the target and scammer makes it even more difficult for a third party to make the victim doubt the authenticity of the deals.
Environmental factors-
Just as in the case of the scammer the environment places a very critical role in the vulnerability of victims to some types of scams. As in cases where the victim grows in an environment where they don’t come across such acts of deceptions, such individuals are dazzled by scams such as the famous wash- wash scam (were some sort of so called rare chemical is used to was out dollar bills). Further more such individuals don’t have any idea about the dexterity of 419ers, failing to note that there are only very few with 6 million dollars in West Africa. Persons who grow up in environments where people are trust worthy and leaders fulfil their promises tend to readily trust others and wouldn’t believe that anyone would want to cheat them.
Cut off principle
Once the scammer has gained the victim’s confidence and has successfully convinced the victim to part with a little money, the scammer would consistently threaten to cut off / call the deal off if the victim doesn’t make a little more payment for phony reason- usually there would be someone to be bribed, some certificates to be acquired, some kind of payments to be made and the list of excuses continues. When the victim is milked dried, the scammer encourages the victim to borrow or use any means necessary to raise the required sum without which the deal wouldn’t sail through. The victim eyes is been focused on the windfall in contrast to the relatively small amount of money they would have to part with, this phenomenon is called “phantom fixation”.
The aim of the scammer is to delude the victim into believing that once the deal sails through, he/she would experience a lifestyle transformation. Having this at the back of one’s mind could lead many a person into commit many crimes in a bid to raise the required “small amounts of money”, which never seizes to end.

Presently, I'm in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment for Oesophagi Cancer at International Memorial Hospital Benin.

Dear Friend,
Thanks for the reply to my mail message. I am into a great treatment here and I have went to different hospital and they confirmed that i will not survive .I will be having operation next week here in Benin hospital,i dont think if i can survive it. I want you to handle this project and that is why i want to know you the more.
i will like you to answer the following questions to me.
1 Are you married.If yes how many kids do you have?
2.Tell me if the 30% is ok for you to carry on this project of Godly work?
I will send you more details for your kind understanding as soon as i receive your reply. Well as for now my present health condition is very bad and to that am not giving much privilege to speak on phone ,But i will try and speak with you even for a second.
Now I will like to give you more information on what you should do as to get all vital information to clear this fund and make sure it goes into your own account.
I have a lawyer by profession who I have already given some of the vital information before because I was so scared when the doctors pronounce my death. You know what that means. Now I will try to discuss with the lawyer today about you because he is the only one that visit me now at the hospital each day that comes and go.
I will let him understand that you are my late husband brother that we are have been waiting for a long time who will handle all our funds and who will use it to do Gods own work.
I will send his full information to you by the time I confirm your second mail reply. I will also give you the contact information of the BANK were we deposited the funds so that you can contact them by your self through the help of my lawyer here in benin.
The lawyer will have much to help you because I can not move and can not do any more thing as for now only waiting for the day God will call me to glory.
Every information you will need to get this fund cleared from the BANK here in Cotonou Benin to your own bank account will be given to you by the lawyer.
But please what you will do for me is after clearing the funds and into your account, Make sure you never forget to use 70% for Humanitarian service and also the lawyer because he is such a nice man who has the fear of God in him. I will want you to use some part of the money to build a church and to help the less privedged and use the rest of 30 percent for yourself.
Please send your address include your passport copy because the lawyer will use it for the change of name in the bank and will have to make it legal at the high court of Benin.
What you will only do for me is to gather Children of GOD brothers and sisters and pray for my soul because I really know that my time on this earth is over.
I Wait to hear from you as soon as possible to proceed.
Thanks

Now I will try to discuss with the lawyer today about you because he is the only one that visit me now at the hospital each day that comes and go.
I will let him understand that you are my late husband brother that we are have been waiting for a long time who will handle all our funds and who will use it to do Gods own work.
I will send his full information to you by the time I confirm your second mail reply. I will also give you the contact information of the BANK were we deposited the funds so that you can contact them by your self through the help of my lawyer here in benin.
The lawyer will have much to help you because I can not move and can not do any more thing as for now only waiting for the day God will call me to glory.
Every information you will need to get this fund cleared from the BANK here in Cotonou Benin to your own bank account will be given to you by the lawyer.
But please what you will do for me is after clearing the funds and into your account, Make sure you never forget to use 70% for Humanitarian service and also the lawyer because he is such a nice man who has the fear of God in him. I will want you to use some part of the money to build a church and to help the less privedged and use the rest of 30 percent for yourself.
Please send your address include your passport copy because the lawyer will use it for the change of name in the bank and will have to make it legal at the high court of Benin.
What you will only do for me is to gather Children of GOD brothers and sisters and pray for my soul because I really know that my time on this earth is over.
I Wait to hear from you as soon as possible to proceed.
Thanks
Mrs Elisabeth Koffi

Dear Alice
Am so glad that you are a spiritual person and i appreciate the trust you repose in me, but as a righteous person i would like to see evidence "no matter how small" of your claims and i would guarantee you that your funds would be effectively managed and i would do all that is necessary to facilitate your coming over to Italy. Personally i am very courteous in dealing with people i dont really know, but in your case something tells me you are genuine, but i would like to see evidence for me to be 100% sure that you claims are real.

Dear Massimo,
Thanks for your mail and for your assurance that you are going to manage my money well and that you will help me to come over to Italy for our mutual investment there.
Based on your request, I have attached the legal deposit document which the security company issued to my late father as of proof what I am telling you with my I.d card here.
For your information, I want you to know that my late father deposited the money as family valuables for security reason and the security company does not know that the box contains money.
In your return mail you should kindly send me your full contact information which I will submit to the security company for them to contact you for a way forward. Please you should keep this document very confidential .
Awaiting your response.
Thanks and God bless.
Alice Kone.
