Forum Übersicht - Millionentransfer - nun kriege ich doch noch mein Geld!

Ende letzten Jahres baitete ich als Ulf-Wunibald Baron von Gaunersleben einen Mugu in Ghana. Den krönenden Abschluss bildete eine dekorative Urkunde, die mein Mugu mit einer kurzen, aber eindrucksvollen Mail ("F*** your mother, bastard!") quittierte. Die E-Mail-Adresse, die ich für diesen Bait angelegt hatte, nutzte ich danach nur noch für die Anmeldung zu einem Abzocke-Projekt der Nutzlos-Branche in Deutschland. Darüber hinaus verwendete ich diesen Mail-Account nicht - er ist auch weitgehend spamfrei.

Trotzdem erhielt Baron von Gaunersleben vor einer Woche Post aus Mugustan. Darin wird ausdrücklich Bezug genommen auf einen verunglückten Geldtransfer, den eine übergeordnete Mugu-Behörde nun zum Abschluss bringen will. Hier ist die Mail:

Zitat von Gaunersleben

Dear Mrs. Addo,

it has been several months ago that I agreed to assist my "business partner"
in Ghana, because he decided to transfer a funds of 12,000,000 USD to
Europe. I sent the "legal change of ownership fee" (USD 720.00) to him,
but the High Court of Accra caused a lot of problems. So I didn't receive
the funds yet.

I think that I have been the victim of a criminal. I went to my local police
station, but the officer laughed and said that my "business partner" would
be a member of the "Nigeria Connection" - no chance to receive the funds
and no chance to get back my paid fee...

I don't remember clearly the name of my "business partner". May be it is
Ombo Asawubu - do you now this name? I don't believe that the end of
the contact is a simple delay. But perhaps you know more about it.

Please let me know some details. I am very interested.

Best regards
Ulf-Wunibald von Gaunersleben
