낯선 주소에서 메일이 와서, 혹시 바이러스는 아닐까 망설이다가, "VERY URGENT(매우 급함)"이란 제목에 클릭을 했습니다.
---------------------
이 메일의 요지는, 나이지리아의 군부 요인이었다가 죽은 Abacha라는 사람의 가족이 현 정부 하의 가택연금 상태에서 도움을 요청한다는 것입니다.
Abacha는 사무실에서 피살당했고, 아들은 무고한 살인죄로 조사를 받는 등 핍박을 받는데, 이들이 스위스 은행에 맡긴 돈은 정부에 의해 인출이 동결되었다고 합니다.
그런데, 정부 모르게 유럽 어느 나라엔가 2500만불의 돈을 숨겨 놓았다고 합니다.
(이런, 비밀을 지켜달라네요. ㅡ.ㅡa)
이 가족들은 연금 상태이기 때문에 이 돈을 직접 인출하거나 사용하지 못하므로, 당장 유럽으로 와서 이 돈을 나이지리아 정부의 손이 미치지 못할 유용한 사업에 투자해 달라고 합니다.
그 대가로 이 돈의 30%를 준다네요.
ㅎㅎㅎ, 완전 소설 같은 사기네요. ^^

Dear Sir,
RE: ABACHA'S FAMILY
We were intstructed to contact you by the Abacha's family (family of the former Nigerian Military Dictator and Head of State General Sani Abacha who died on the 8th of June 1998 year while in office) for assistance in the matter stated below.
We have been consulted and our services retained by the Late Generals wife who is currently
on house arrest as a result of her family's recent confrontation with the present government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Our client's family accounts in Switzerland and some other countries was recently frozen in the bead by the Nigerian government to get hold of Late General Sani Abachas Money.see attach BBC news publication for your perusal(news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/3333557.stm).Recently
the Generals first son was arrested for a murder charge he did not commit and he had been released.see attach BBC news publication for your perusal (news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/2278292.stm).
However the late general has some money hidden some where in an European country in the care of a security and finance company to the turn of $25,000,000.00 in cash which the Nigeria government does not know about (PLEASE KEEP CONFIDENTIAL)
The funds was moved out of the country via diplomatic means during the late generals reign in power and the family would want you to immediately travel to this European country where this
security company is located or any of the affiliated offices where you will take possession of this money and filter it into a profitable business venture to avoid the Nigeria government from impounding this money.
For your effort in this you are expected to take 30% of this money.
The Abachas family are currently not allowed assess to any of their account both here and outside the country and so are relying heavily on a trusted friend you are and this money in there latest ordeal.
Please reach us Email(jerrygani@***.com ) as soon as possible with a show of interest for more details ofthis.
Enclosed your tel/fax numbers while replying this mail for easier communication .
Please treat as urgent
Yours Sincerely,
jerry gani
