Dear
Sir,
Thanks
for your detailed information about your Cobra posted for sale.
I
and my wife have accepted to purchase the Cobra after studying the details
and what is the final price of the Cobra?. We still want to purchase
similar Cobras in your country for rentage/resale which is after buying
your Cobra and I believe you are in better position to guide me through
as the owner/seller of the cobra.
My name is Peter Marbach born in 1936 in Oberrieden Switzerland and I am a retired senior civil servant here in Oberrieden Switzerland.
I
wouldn't want you to expose this investment because i have little problem
with my country which is the reason i want to start investing my funds
to avoid being confiscated by the government,the government is currently
investigating my assets,properties and funds deposited with finance
companies,actually there were missing funds in my office during my tenure
which prompted the government to set up a committee to investigate the
matter and I am among the people invited by the committee for a public
hearing. So for that reason, I cannot travel down to your country to
inspect the cobra for now due to the nature of the investigation, I
want someone like you to purchase the cobra on my name and when my case
is over here, I will come with my family to your country for us to see
and finalize the transaction while we sign relevant documents
together
My
wife deposited the sum of Seventeen Million Five Hundred Thousand United
State Dollars in my name to a private finance company as family safe
deposit and i want to invest this funds into cobras through you,I will
give you the contact information of the private finance company where
the available is deposited for you to contact them for the release of
the funds once I confirm that you are capable of handling this investment
so that when i settle my problems here i will relocate to your country
with my family as an investor.
Looking
for your prompt reply.
Thanks and best regard.
Mr.Marbach
—Here's the reply I sent re the first report I received from this Nigerian scambucket—
25 February 2010
Jon:
Every time I think I've witnessed the rock-bottom/nadir of Nigerian scambaggery, I get treated to something like this.
The #1 absolute dead giveaway, Jon, is that he doesn't have any questions at all about your Cobra (and moreover, no Cobra-specific type questions). He just wants to invest all of his ill-gotten funds into Cobra replicas.
Another strong hint is "Peter's" use of a 'hotmail' email address, which doesn't reveal the real country he's emailing from (otherwise—and if he used his real name—his email address would be something like <MansurAjayi@CrocRiver.ni> or something similarly revealing. But you can forget Switzerland... he's a Nigerian scambucket.
So here's a direct link to my mirthful 'Nigerian Scam Reply Letter' if you'd like to use it to send to "Mr. Marbach":
