CONFIDENTIAL

Sorry to bother you. I came across your email address and I thought I would
forward you a business proposal which I believe you might find of interest, and
also to solicit for your assistance.

My name is Major Jose Santos, I was a high ranking officer of the rebel group
of Southern Angola ( UNITA ) which was led by the late General Jonas Savimbi
who was shot and killed last year in a shoot out with Angolan National army.

At the time of the death of our General , I was in the Netherlands arranging for
the purchase of arms and military hardware for our army on his behalf , because
peace talks with the government had broken down and a major offensive by
government troops was predicted. Unfortunately before I could finalize the
purchase, the news of his death was announced.

I was suddenly left with US$ 26,000,000.00 (Twenty six million United States
dollars ) which I brought into the Netherlands through diplomatic means and
meant for the arms purchase. I immediately deposited the money with a securities
company here in the Netherlands and declared it as a consignment belonging to
my foreign affiliate, and quickly soughtrefugee status.

Currently this proposal is to inform you that I want to transfer this money out
from the Netherlands into your personal or company account as soon as possible
for safe keeping, since my asylum status here do not permit me to hold such huge
amount, it can be freeze if the source is revealed.

Please note that this transaction demands the highest degree of trust and
confidentiality between us, moreover I can assure you it is risk- free in the
sense that only three people knew about this money and the arms purchase, ie;
General Savimbi, Capt. John Kowanyi and myself.
Unfortunately The two died the same day in the Government offensive. I have also
taken all proper care of all formalities regarding it.

In appreciation of your assistance , I have worked out the sharing ratio for
this transaction as follows :

70% for my investment in your country under your close supervision and
direction,

25% for your efforts ( help and assistance) and shall set aside

5% for all incidental expenses.

Please reply on the above email address or you can call me on the private
telephone number below as to give me your private telephone and fax numbers for
confidential communication.

As I urgently wait to hear from you, be informed that all communication on this
transaction shall be confidential. Please , this no no game and if you feel you
can't help , please do not reply. Please send your reply to email :
[email protected]

Thank you for your anticipated co-operation.

Best regards ,

Major. Jose Santos

i cant remember the site for the life of me but there are ACTUALLY people out there waiting for serious replys.

what the member of the website does is basically email them back pretending to be interested and thus gets some of the senders details.

the guy on the website has pretended to be a 16 year old girl wanting a foreign penpal

also pretended to be well keen and then backed out at the last moment prompting the funniest flaming emails back

also pretended that his english was shit

fucking hilarious
