    Subject: GREETINGS from mrs Caroline Haafkens.


    Dear Beloved in Christ,

    It is by the grace of God that I received Christ,knowing the truth and
    the truth have set me free.Having known the truth I had no choice than
    to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God for eternal life and
    in the sight of man for witness of God?s mercy and glory upon my life.
    I know you will definitely take this as a deceptive e mail,because
    of the swindle news we hear everyday and now it happens am from
    Netherlands where it seems to happen more often.Let me first of all inform
    you, i got your e.mail id from a mail directory and decided to e.mail you
    for apermission to go ahead.


    I am Mrs Caroline Solange Haafkens from Netherlands.I am married to
    Dr.Franklyn Haafkens who worked with Chevron/Texaco in Nigeria for twenty
    years before he died in the year 2001.We were married for twenty-seven
    years without a child,He died during one of the riots in the Niger
    Delta region of Nigeria.He was held hostage and slain to death by
    protesting youths of the region before his death we were both born again
    christians.

    Since his death I decided not to re-marry.When my late husband was
    alive he deposited the sum of 8.6 million dollars (Eight Million six
    hundred thousand U.S.Dollars)with a bank in the Netherlands. Presently this
    money is still with the bank and the management just wrote me as the
    beneficiary to come forward to receive the money or rather issue a letter
    of authorisation to somebody to receive it on my behalf if I can not
    come over.

    I am presently with my laptop in a hospital where I have been
    undergoing treatment for cancer of the lungs, I have since lost my
    ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I have only a few months
    to live.It is my last wish to see that this money is invested and at the
    end of every year distributed among charity organisation.

    I want a person that is God fearing that will use this money to fund
    churches,orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure
    that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand
    that Blessed is the hand that giveth.
    I took this decision because i know that there are alot of poor people
    suffering from different kind of disease and nobody to come to their
    aid.With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I
    shall give you the contact of the bank.I will also issue you a letter of
    authority that will prove you as the new beneficiary of this fund.You
    will be entitled to 10% of every profit you make in a year.

    Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.

    I await your urgent reply.

    Yours in Christ,

    Mrs Caroline Haafkens

    Thanks..

    Saw the name and thought "Ey. that sounds du...[scrolls on].. WTF?"

    Just another 419 scam. Apparently targeted at americans. I don't know what's worse. That apparently they think that many americans fit that bill, or that there probably are people who will fall for this.

    it would take a great deal for me to leave hostboard....
    i may take time every once in a while and break
    from this place, but as i said... it would have
    to be pretty big to get me to never come back.

    i'm sorry to hear about your year.... i hope
    your schooling wasn't involved... unless it
    was for the better.

    again... you come around any time you want
    i'm always here for ya
