I REQUEST YOU TO BE MY GUARDIAN AND THEN HELP ME TO COME OVER YOUR COUNTRY:
Good day and how are you today? I hope fine? After going through your profile, permit me to inform you of my desire of asking you to be a guardian or foster parent to me and then help me out in what I am about to tell you. I know this may sound strange to you, receiving a mail from an unknown person, but my condition has forced me to do that.
I'm Ms.Celina Toma 21 years old, the only daughter of Late Mr. & Mrs. Joel Toma my father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant here in Abidjan, the economic capital of Cote d'Ivoire. He was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outings on a business trip in France, my mother died when I was a baby.
Before the death of my father on 12th February 2008 in a private hospital here in Abidjan, he secretly called me by his bed side and told me that he has the sum of six million Five hundred thousand United State Dollars USD ($6.5million) he deposited in United Nation Diplomatic Custody there in Jakarta-Indonesia, which the United Nation Diplomat will delivery it to you or you travel to Jakarta and claim it in person, because of the legal valuables Insurance.
He then strongly advised me not to seek for assistance in the investment of the money from his lawyer or any of his friends here but to seek for a foreign partner from a country of my choice (outside our country, Cote d Ivoire) that will assist me in the wise investment of the money. I have since left the money in the Diplomatic custody with the view of my making use of it for investment purposes after my education carrier. But as you may be already aware by now, our country (Cote D' Ivoire) is presently at political crises.
Rebels have already taken over the whole Northern part of the country and making efforts towards to capture the commercial center of the country, Abidjan, where I am now.
I want an investment purpose like real estate management or hotel management. Because of this I am honorably seeking your assistance in the following ways with honest:
(1) To serve as a guardian to me and then assist me receiving the money into your care. (2) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my education and then settle there permanently.
If you accept to stand as my guardian or foster parent to me, I need not discuss on any percentage with you as you have to see the whole money as yours and then assist me invest it. But if you still want a percentage, I am willing to offer you, 30 % of the total money as compensation for your assistance. Please tell me if you feel the percentage I offered is not ok by you. As soon as I receive your concrete assurance to assist me with my proposal and also your full contact address/phone number and pictures, I will give you the United Nation Diplomatic Custody contact to reach MR.KENNEDY MURRY and know their legal procedures to release and deliver it to you as I want to come over to stay with you permanently please.
You shall then be giving me information on when the transaction will be over. I shall also send my pictures to you. No matter what your decision may turn out to be, please I beg you to keep this highly secret for my safety, as I believe that those people that killed my Daddy are still after me here. For more explanations regarding my situation here.
Thanks and God bless you. Best regards. Miss Celina Toma. Private Tel:+22505513336 Please Be Honest With Me.

Wow thats one of the worst ones I've ever heard. Even before computers if someone recieved that in a letter delivered by horseback I think they could determine it was a scam.
I don't know, I want to have sex with my wifes sister. As fun as thet would be something bad will come of it.
What bad will come out of it?
I'm not using my real name, I'm not going to give my real address (I have aliases I use for both if questioned on the spot), I'm not going to ever meet this person, and I sure as hell will never spend money on a long distance phone call.
I'm just going to make THEM call ME. I'm going to lead them around in circles til they get dizzy, then push them over and laugh.
This is just going to be too much fun for me.
That site is GOLD, it's where I originally got the idea to try this!

Google Voice is great, set up an account, and tie it to your cell, and home phone so when they call you it'll forward. They call a number you can throw away later, and everyone wins.
I am Mrs. Oliva Baker an aging widow suffering from long time illness. I have some funds I inherited from my late husband, the sum of US$8,400,000.00 and I needed a very honest and God fearing Christian that will use the fund for God's work, I found your email address from the internet and decided to contact you. Please if you would be able to use the funds for the Lord's work, kindly reply for further details.
Yours in the Lord, Mrs.Oliva Baker
Hmmmm ... sounds kinda' familiar. Do you think it's legit???

I have my full name, address, and number already taken care of. I'm working on getting an I.D. to use. When I find something I'll let you guys know.
Just do one in Paint. Use a Bozo picture or maybe Count Dracula.
Remember, a lot of these scammers come from places that still believe in witchcraft and evil magic. You can really mess with their minds later on to get them to do stuff.
Sometimes you may have to be firm.

I'm going to use GIMP or PS. I'll use a fake picture... but it's gonna be a real person.
I will be firm in order to get them to spend money for me. I'm going to get a couple days by telling him/her that I need a little time to scan the images to get to her.
I was thinking of something more like Alfred E. Neuman. You should be able to Photoshop the image below to look like a bad drivers license or passport photo ... e.g. mask out the background, desaturate the color and pump the contrast to look like a bad flash, and then insert some "official looking" wallpaper.
"What, me worry?"

I really like how she says her father was "poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outings on a business trip in France", and then in the very next paragraph, she states "Before the death of my father on 12th February 2008 in a private hospital here in Abidjan"....

That's just because her English isn't to good. He was poisoned in France and didn't die until he was flown back to the private hospital in Abidjan.
OMG Jason Bourne......that would be frickin hilarious.

------------------------
From the 419eater site FAQs:
Question. The scammer is asking for some of my identification or a copy of my passport. Where do I find some fake ID to send to him?
Answer. We now discourage people from sending fake identification to scammers. There is the possibility that the scammer may use the very ID you send to him, to fool a real victim, and although you may create what you think is a totally unbelievable ID featuring some well known celebrity or funny name, there is a possibility that a real victim may be totally unaware of that celebrity or perhaps comes from a country where because of the language differences does not recognise the amusing name as such.
You will find plenty of suggestion for sending garbage files instead of IDs to a scammer on our very busy FORUM. One favourite method is to select a random (and large!) .DLL file and rename it to something like "passport.jpg". Of course the scammer will not be able to display it on his computer, but that's not your fault is it?!
------------------------------------------
I'd say that's good advice. Don't send them something they can use to scam someone else. I like the dll file idea...
