He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates. That due to the incessant political crisis in this country and to avoid been kill by his enemies I should seek fo
r a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose such as real estate or hotel management.

Email "her" back asking if she's in West Africa, why she has a french email address.

And why she can't remember how to spell her dead mother's name.

And how she could come to her father's death bed when was poisoned, remember poison works fast.

And how a small girl can type so well and know so much about these matters...

SHE = FAIL

Seriously though, if you actually are stupid enough to fall for one of these scams, do you really deserve your money?

You can find different versions of on it on alot of websites.

How does it go? "A fool and his money are soon parted."

My mom got one but the guy was in Brazil, she got some entertainment for a couple of hours.

But stupid on your part to advise this guy on his obvious mistakes. Next potential victim won't have some easy ass holes to see through.

It's called "Advance Fee" fraud (also known as 419 fraud, since that's the penal code used in Nigeria where most of these scams originate).
When used as a con it is often refered to as the "Spanish Prisoner"

You are invited to help them, usually a charity, church or foreign dignitary, to release large amounts of capital from their country. But they claim they require some outside funding, or bank account to set the transfer up.
If you give them some set-up fees, you will never see the money again.
If you give them any personal details they will use them to commit Identity Fraud.

I run training sessions in avoiding this kind of thing.
If you want any more information, let me know.
