Last year we had a great deal of fun at the expense of the 419'ers. In the interest of spreading the joy I've posted some of the exchanges here. The original is like this and we are 914.

Sir,

As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me,because, I
believe everyone will die someday. My name is Mahmoud Ahmed a merchant
in Dubai, United Arab Emirate.

I have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. It has defiled all
forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to
live,according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my
life so well,as I never really cared for anyone (not even myself) but
my business.Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always
hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only
thing I cared for.But now I regret all this as I now know that there
is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the
world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this
world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it.

I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate
and extended family members as well as a few close friends. I want God
to be merciful to me and accept my soul so, I have decided to give
also to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good
deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity
organizations in the Kuwait, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health
has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore.

I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and
distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in
Bulgaria and Pakistan; they refused and kept the money to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contempted
with what I have left for them.

The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of
eighteen million dollars $18, 000, 000, 00 that I have with a
Finance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me
collect/receive this deposit and dispatched it to charity
organizations.

You can also reply me on my direct email address of
(mahmoud30a@hotmail.com) for confidentiality as I'll be awaiting your
response, as i have set aside 10% for you for your honesty and also to
cover your domestic expenses.
you.

Warm Regards
Mahmoud Ahmed.

Dear Mahmoud,
I am devastated to hear of your desperate straits. I could not bear to have another human being suffer so I've been busy on your behalf. I found a cure for you ! There is a secret essence called 4-Herb Tea that only a highly skilled professional like me could have researched. This is an actual unsolicited testimonial.

“I had another great report and the Drs. even extended my check ups to yearly instead of every six months. Yes - you hear from me every six months after my checkup. I am a five year stomach/esophageal cancer survivor. When I was in the hospital for surgery, my neighbor/friend got me started on 4-Herb tea. I have continued to take it daily for five years - three to four times each day along with COQ10, Beta Glucans and B-12.”

I'd be happy to share the location of this elixir for a small fee. As a gesture of good faith I'll share a secret miracle acne cure that is guaranteed to heal you quickly : http://secretsiteacne.com/

Your family must be huge since I know your brother well. He works with me. But he's not at all like the family you speak of. He gave me money yesterday – a whole 31 rupees and never even asked for a receipt.

Have you made funeral arrangements yet ? It would be a shame to have nobody to take care of your dead remains. I know people in the concrete business.

What do you sell ? I could use some new merchandise to sell here in Benin. My pigs knuckle shelf is a bit bare.

Please contact me with respect to my domestic expenses.

Yours sincerely
Havildar Singhes
