Once I got such a letter purportedly from the son of the late president of an African country who offered me 25% of the money his father had stolen.

The funny thing was that at the time I was working for the lawyers of a real son of the late president of another African country who really was trying to get hold of some money stashed away by his late father.

Some facts from an English court decision:

5. Foremost among the matters investigated after General Abacha's death was the so called security funds scandal. It is alleged that more than $2 billion was taken from the Central Bank of Nigeria ("CBN") in cash (dollar, sterling and Nigerian naira banknotes), travellers' cheques and bank transfers under the guise of votes of money for security purposes. Mohammed Abacha and Mr Bagudu have accepted that they were personally involved in the receipt of some $700 million or so of such funds. This cash was delivered by the CBN to General Abacha, handed on by the General to his son Mohammed, and by Mohammed to Mr Bagudu. Mr Bagudu banked these monies with Nigerian banks and ultimately arranged for them to be exported abroad, through the CBN, where they were deposited in the bank accounts of various companies.

Они прислали первое письмо на адрес моей "гостиницы", спросили, действительно ли объявление. Я ответила, что да. И тогда прислали вот это. На это я им ответила, что в такие игры не играю. Больше ничего пока.
