I received an email from Wanita Efua where I am promised millions of dollar for my assistance. It contains a lie heart touching story of civil war. Initially I have responded but soon I come to know about the scandal.
Have you ever received an email from a stranger in Nigeria promising you millions of dollars for your small assistance?
If yes! Then just delete it because it is a full lie head breaking story, known as an “Advance Fee Fraud” scandal. If you start responding, then sooner or later you will be asked to pay a advance fee for processing of documents. If you pay, another fee will quickly come up, and it will continue till you give up or run out of money. You never see the millions of dollars because they never existed but you will loose your money.
In Nigeria and their surrounding countries, has become an industry of fraud mails. Daily thousand of emails are sent to people all over the world and criminals spending lots of their time in these activities.
We can’t stop the fraud, but we can have some fun, and make the criminals use their time in vain. Some of the mail which I have got from Wanita Efua is shown below.
For more about scams see Nigerian Fraud Mails.
See the mails and enjoy it but do your comment to make other's know.

Subject: i have been keeping this as a secret
good morning my love,how are you and how is your work? l hope all is in good condition,i have been praying for God to send me someone who will take me as his own to help me out from this situation,i thank God for bringing you into my way and i strongly believe that the blind trust which i have taken the decision to bestow on you will not be let down by you.
When i remember that it has really been a long time since someone talked to me in such loving and caring words as yours,i cant help than to rely on you. please l would like you to know that l have my late father's statement of account and death certificate here with me which l will like to send to you to assist me,because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in a leading bank which he used my name as the next of kin.
The amount in question is $3.8(Three Million eight Hundred Thousand US Dollars).So l will like you to assist me transfer this money to your account and from it you can send some money for me to get my traveling documents and air ticket to come over to meet you. I want to go back to my studies because i only attended my first year before the tragic incident that lead to my being in this situation now I have got in touch with the bank in mail and made them to know about my plan of withdraw this money,l also got them aware of the death of my father and they have acknowledged it with all there confirmation.
However,they advise me to get in touch with a very responsible person who will stand on my behalf as my trustee as regards to this money since l am presently in refugee my status over here wouldn't be permitted to handle this amount of money.
I just have to let you know about this so that you can assist me to be my trustee on this money.like l said l want you to call me because l have a lot to tell you.l kept this secret to people in the camp here the only person that knows about it is only the Reverend father here.
Have a nice time and think about me, l hope to hear from you soonest.
yours .

Hello!
I received the following mail 2day and I started to search the Google... I knew from the start that there's something wrong with it...
"Hello How are you doing today?I hope every thing is under control ,? if so thanks be to God almighty who made it so ,My name is wanita. I come across your profiel and address in this site ( www.disabled.gr ) i personaly became interested in being your friend even more than that ,but as time gose on we will know better , though we can not meet face to face for the moment ,but all is the same . I want you reply me now so that i can send you my pictures and tell you more about myself okay Hoping to talk to you soon ,have a nice day and ramain Bless. Regards, wanita"
I got this email from her:
"Hello, am a young single girl never married seeking true love for a long term relationship with marriage potentials,i am happy to contact you after going through your profile in ( th.cross.tv) which got my interest! i -will love us to be good friends or a lot more,you can contact me through mail so that i will send you my photos,till i hear from you,bye and kisses!"
hu uh....nice site
I got this letter as spam in my email I looked at it and replied cause I thought she was in despite need of help but of course by the pictures I could tell it was all a damn lie I can’t believe there are people there who would lie about something like this I’ve never felt so disgusted in my life whoever sent or started this despicable scam I hope they get their ass caught and sent to jail cause what they did is unforgivable and most defiantly un human. And what makes it scarier is that they or whoever sent it to me found me from a web page. This just shows that the internet is not safe cause of bastards like them. And if you think I will let this go hell no. I’m taking actions to stop this so as a warning I’ve told people around me about this so don’t be like me or any of the others who replied and believed in this files of lies use your logic and put aside your heart aside cause people will use it against you.
i replied to her but i aint send her any money or stuff well come on of course its fraud how come she knows our emalis????
And from camp???
Sheesh.....
The pictures used in these mails are not true of scammer's, but those are managed from magazines and books of celebrity for attracting people.
Normally emails add are taken by scammers from popular free social sites where innocent peoples use to come for interaction.
see these are the common now to get such type of mails. Every one's father and their family killed and they have lot of money deposited.Even they will send you deposite receipts printed in your name also.
For crying out loud! I am also her latest victim! She was in my spam box one morning. Saying that she had found me on gumtree.co.za. next thing you know she is all up with her heart rendering story and what not about living in a refugee camp and all that and having little to eat. But hey I guess I was being stupid, I mean like hey look at those pictures she's sending her victims. She looks well dressed and well fed. How could I be such a fool. luckily she doesn't have any money from me yet
klintaruvinga@gmail.com
i also got same from her
i searched in Google (EFUA AND CO. INDUSTRIAL COMPANY LTD)
thanks for u r information
I'm too much late to look over the about this fucking lady. Let the God be blessed like what she has done to others. Amen....

(my name) i did not have any hope again i may last my life like my family do its really difficult to me hear in this camp i dont know what to do,
Wanita" what is she trying to do i need help!
omg i recived that emails too.
she promised me 3.8 milions USD.
i insulted and blocked her. i just cant figure out where did she found my email adress.. I am from east Europe!!
guys when u receive this email-spam do not answer or if you want to know more informations about these people just search on google or other searching engines..NEVER ANSWER JUST DELETE THE MESSAGE!
I think it is one of the most popular scam here in America.
You guys should do what I have been doing and have fun with it I know I am I bet she's getting pretty mad tell her stuff like hi neighbor I'm in the camp next door I have an idea y don't we walk to the bank together then we will have a happily ever after
I request to readers not to write their e-mail id or their phone no. in comment, as it can give new input to scammers. Instead they can give their name and place(optional).
