THE SAME THING
My dearest,
Thanks for your responds to my massage on Facebook, How are you today over there? mine was very cold over here in Dakar Senegal, My dear Age, distance, or religion does not matter, what matters is love and trust,

My name is Loreta Patrick, I'm 24 years old girl single and unmarried, I am from Sudan in Africa region, 5.8ft tall and presently i am residing as a refugee here in Dakar Senegal as a result of the ongoing war in my country.

My late father Dr Patrick Omer was the Assistant managing director to the South Sudan's oil minister (Mr Stephen Dhieu Dau) before the rebels attacked our house one early morning and kill my family, my mother and my father including my two younger ones and all my relatives run away, It was only me that is alive now in my family, and i managed to make my way to near by country Dakar Senegal where i am leaving now as a refugee.

My plans was to escape to any Western World like, Europe, America or Asia, But is very unfortunate i lost my traveling document when I was coming down here in Dakar Senegal. i don't have any relatives now whom i can go to all my relatives ran away in the middle of the war the only person i have now is Rev Kevin Albert , who is the Reverend father of (Christian church of Bethlehem located here in the camp where i send and receive emails with the church office computer, he has been very nice to me since i came here but i am not living with him rather i am leaving in the women's hostel because the camp have two hostels one for men the other for women.

We are only allowed to go out two times in a week in this camp, Its just like someone staying in a prison and i hope by God grace i will come out very soon. The Reverends Tel number is (+221774745505). you can call him and tell him that you want to speak with me he will send for me in the hostel to come and talk with you.

As a refugee here, i don't have any right or privilege to any thing been money or whatever because it is against the law of this country. Now i want to go back to my studies because i only attended my first year before the tragic incident that lead to me being in this situation now took place. Please before we continue i will like to know more about you. Your Age, Your Country, Educational status, Your likes and dislikes, Your hobbies and what you are doing presently. My hobbies are reading, watching musical videos, going to beach with friends, visiting a place like zoo and doing every other thing that gives me joy and happiness.

MAIN REASON OF CONTACTING YOU

Please listen to this, I have my late father's statement of account and death certificate here with me which i will send to you latter,because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in a leading Foreign bank in Europe which he used my name as the next of kin, the amount in question is $3.6 M(Three million six hundred thousand Us dollars). So i will like you to help 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 there to meet with you.

Already I have been in contact with the bank to claim the money by myself unfortunately they refused releasing the fund because of my refugee status here in Dakar Senegal, The only thing the bank told me is to look for a foreign partner who will stand for me during the transfer due to my refugee status. That is why i am seeking for your assistance I kept this secret to people in this camp, the only person that knows about it is the Reverend father because he is like a father to me and i will like you to keep it to yourself, please don't tell any one about it because i am afraid of loosing my life and the money if people gets to know about it.

Remember i am giving you all this information due to the trust i deposed on you. I like honest and understanding people,truthful,hardworking and God fearing. My favorite language is English and our primary languages is Arabic/English, but i speak English very fluently. However i will like to hear from you if you can help me in this matter have a nice day and think about me. Waiting to hear from you soonest.
Yours new friend Loreta

Not to be trusted
It seems too good to be true! Who on earth would trust you with $2,7 million. How can a refugee camp have computers to send out emails. I went on with it until she, Yanaka Diana, couldn't answer more questions. Its very sad to see how people can use Reverends as their escape-goats. Hope the world gets knowledge before it affect more people. Luckily I found out thanks to this site.

Scammer
I happened to receive an E-Mail from someone, who uses the name of "Elizabeth Almahdi". Here's what he/she first wrote:

Hello,
How are you doing? hope fine.
My name is Miss Elizabeth i really interested to know more about you
after reading your profile in Facebook,
but unfortunately am not always online here so i will be glad if you write me back through my
private email address ( elizabethalmahdi@live.com )
so i can write you and tell you more about my self because there is something i will like to share with you, take care and a lots of love.
May the lord bless you as i wait to hear from you

What to expect from something like that? I expect a fraud.
As the contact was going on the lady or whoever hides behind the name demanded me to contact a bank in London, so her late father's fortune of somewhat over two million pounds could be transferred to my bank account. Why would someone trust a total stranger??? This is a scammer, i'm pretty sure of it.
