Heartwrenching U2U


I am looking for ways to spend this money in Baja. Any ideas?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------From Mrs Marcel Burnley.

Writing with humanitarian heart, my name is Mrs Marcel Burnley. I was married to Mr.Wardrole Burnley directors MWB Industries Cote d’Ivoire.We were married for 32 years without a child. He died after a Cardiac Arteries Operation.

Recently when I went for medical examination my doctor told me that I might not last for the next six months due to my cancer at it advanced stage (cancer of the liver and partial stroke). Before my husband died last year, there is this sum of $8.8 Million USA Dollars that he deposited with a Bank here In Ivory Coast. Presently this money is still in the Vault of the finance Company.

Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to any good God fearing brother or sister that will utilize this fund the way I am going to instruct herein.

I prayed for one who will use this fund according to the desire of my late husband to help the less privileged, orphans, widows and propagating the word of God. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this fund, and I don't want in any way where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I took this decision to hand you over this fund.

I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I want you to always remember me in your daily prayers because of my up coming surgery.Respond via this email (burnley.marcel@yahoo.com)

Mrs Marcel Burnley…

Not an e-mail, but a U2U?


Well that must mean it is legitimate! After all, to send a U2U, one must be a Nomad and that, of course, means she must be a really good person. :lol::lol::lol:

Congrats

Now you tell me! I just wired 4 mil to get 8! ;D

I am familiar with the 419 scam. Posted this so others may see it. Thank you for your concern and it is appreciated. It is amazing that these scams continue. The only reason is that there are some who are either desperate or uninformed. I rarely get U2U's so I was suprised to see one in my inbox and then had a good laugh when I read it. I do not plan to reply.

Thanks. I've never seen one of these things up close, but I can see that, if presented to the more naive individual, it could be taken seriously.

These guys have a lot of time on their hands. I like it when the use the word "hence". I think it's part of the Nigerian culture to scam and then actually believe that's it's true. I have dealt with these guys before with insurance claims and they have no conscience. Hence, don't fall for the scam.

Just in case you use craigslist.org or new to it....

One must be very careful indeed.

Good learning tools here:

Any great offer / need for help ...from strangers is most likely a scam.

About 2 times a month right now, someone creates an account then spams about 20-80 users via u2u. Frequently, it's this scam.

Most people just forward me the u2u to let me know. I remove the u2u's from the database from those not having opened them yet. With this one Gato posted, they sent to about 35 users here, with 4 having opened it already. I've removed it from the remaining inboxes.

Ah Shucks----you are stopping people from being given all this money. :lol::lol:

When we first set up the new e-mail accounts for the Bahia Asuncion WebSite, the first two e-mails we received on both accounts were of this nature. One would think after all this time they would quit, but I guess someone must still fall for them. :o

Matteo,

Mrs. Burnley had me in her prayers as well. Too bad we both didn't respond as I'm sure that between the two of us we could have found many ways to make the world a better place with that much moola.

I forwarded my u2u to Doug. Thanks Doug for taking care of all that.

I believe Mrs. Marcel Burnley I would contact her if only I had her e-mail address. I want in on the financial bonanza! It would be great for my future retirement.

We could have saved a lot of turtles and bought a penthouse suite at that soon to developed rotating skytower at Playa Requeson, and that's just for starters! The oppurtunities would be endless! :dudette::lol:

I should have sent it to Doug but I thought I was the only one. Figured the gal new a bit of spanish and picked up on the 'loco'?

Thanks Doug!
