Subject: Seot 11 scam!

Please pass it on...

Now, for anyone who knows my business locally, it is a small dog training business and though I am in the black so far, it is enough to cover my dog related bills above and beyond covering class expenses! Not really a money maker by any means!!! However, this is the second email I have gotten - basically the same thing - verbatim - with only the name and country of origin changed. I have gone to the FBI as well as reported it to Yahoo. But I wanted to pass it on to as many people as possible to get the word out there that this scam is going on.

DEAR PARTNER,

YOUR COMPANY'S NAME AND ADDRESS WAS GIVEN TO ME ON A
REQUEST TO WORLD TRADE CENTRE (W.T.C), THOUGH I NEVER
MADE MY INTENTION KNOWN TO THEM. THE REQUEST I MADE
TO THEM IS TO GIVE ME A WELL KNOWN BUSINESSMAN WHO HAS
NO QUESTIONABLE CHARACTER AND MUST BE A SUCCESSFUL
BUSINESSMAN.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, I AM MR.RASHEED BELLO, A
DIRECTOR IN THE NATIONAL ELECTRIC POWER AUTHORITY
(N.E.P.A). ALSO I WAS PRIVILEGED TO BE A MEMBER OF
TENDER'S BOARD THAT AWARDED AND SUPERVISED THE
EXECUTION OF A MULTIMILLION U.S. DOLLARS CONTRACT IN
1994. THE CONTRACT HAS BEEN COMPLETED AND
COMMISSIONED IN AUGUST 1996,AND ORIGINAL CONTRACT
VALUE PAID IN OCTOBER 1997, TO THE FOREIGN FIRM THAT
ACTUALLY EXECUTED THE CONTRACT.

HOWEVER, AS A RESULT OF OVER-INVOICING AND SERIES OF
REVISION CARRIED OUT IN THE COURSE OF THE CONTRACT
EXECUTION, THERE NOW EXISTS A FLOATING SUM OF
US$45.5M(FORTY FIVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S
DOLLARS ONLY). THIS MONEY IS NOW DUE FOR PAYMENT IN
THE GOVERNMENT QUARTERLY PAYMENT SCHEDULE AND WE WISH
TO REMIT THIS FUND INTO YOUR DESIGNATED PERSONAL OR
CORPORATE ACCOUNTS OVERSEAS.

WE SHALL SECURE THE PAYMENT APPROVALS FROM THE
RELEVANT OFFICE/MINISTRIES HERE FOR THE RELEASE OF
THIS CONTRACT SUM IN FAVOUR OF YOUR COMPANY WITH
DOCUMENT AND INFORMATION WE SHALL REQUEST FROM YOU
TOO, WE HAVE NOW CONCLUDED ARRANGEMENTS IN THE CENTRAL
BANK OF NIGERIA TO REMIT THIS MONEY AS SUM REALIZED BY
A COMPANY THROUGH LEGITIMATE MEANS IN NIGERIA.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

THE FUND WILL BE SHARED 35% FOR YOU AND 60% FOR US.
THE REMAINING 5% TAKES CARE OF ALL INCIDENTAL
EXPENSES. TO FORMALISE THIS TRANSACTION IN NIGERIA IN
FAVOUR OF YOUR DESIGNATED COMPANY WE REQUIRE
YOUTOFORWARD THE FOLLOWING:

CONFIDENTIALITY REQUIRED IN A BUSINESS OF THIS NATURE
IN ALL PLACES AT ALL TIMES ON BOTH SIDES.

NUMBERSANDE-MAIL NUMBER OF YOUR BANK.
3.YOUR PRIVATE TELEX, FAX AND TELEPHONE NUMBERS FOR

RELEVANT DOCUMENTS/APPROVALS.

THIS REMITTANCE IS GUARANTEE IN LESS THAN 14(FOURTEEN)
WORKING DAYS UPON RECEIPT OF THE ABOVE MENTION
PARTICULARS BY FAX, HOWEVER, IT REQUIRES THE HIGHEST
CO-OPERATION, SERIOUSNESS, MUTUAL TRUST, HONEST
AND STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL ON BOTH SIDES TO AVOID
JEOPARDIZING THE POSITION OF THE OFFICERS WHO ARE TOP
GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONARIES. ALSO WE WANT TO USE PART OF
OUR PERCENTAGE TO IMPORT ANY QUICK SELLING GOODS WITH
