Challenge
I have sent an email to Dr. Bojan Franc from Suntan Specialist hospital, Cotonuo, De Republic of Benin
Here I have used his misspelling of Cotonou on purpose. I have challenge him to Contact the US embassy & prove to them that Suntan Specialist Hospital does exist. He has never responded to that challenge which is now a week old.

Romance Scam
Dear Mr Briggs,


This is Dr. Bojan Franc from Suntan Specialist hospital, Cotonuo, De Republic of Benin. I hope i have the right email. I am writing according to the instruction given to me by our new patient Miss Tara Fadely. She was rushed into the hospital at about 2:15pm today by the public ambulance after a fatal accident on her way back from the international airport. She is very lucky to made it out of that fatal accident alive because the driver died at the spot of that accident. Honestly, she is very lucky to be alive because the public emergency traffic ambulance arrived at the point of the accident fast and she was rescued. She suffered so much injuries on her head and one of her legs. She's in a critical condition right now but we are extremely glad that she was brought down here in time. Though she can't talk well, all she does is cry, i think that is due to the pains she suffered. We are running different scans on her to make sure she hasn't suffered some internal injuries.
Miss Tara, when asked about her people and relatives that we could contact, she gave me her diary from which i found a male picture and i think is you with your name and email address on the back of the picture as her fiance.. Stated as .. "Stephen Briggs, My husband, my fiance, my love." That is what was written at the back of the picture... I got another contact which i think is her aunt and church details too. Her aunt which i wrote hasn't replied yet but the church responded about immediately after i wrote them and they already sent two people down here. Yes, they are inside the ward with Tara now. I assure you that we have done our best to save Tara's life and she would be fine in due time. Kindly put her in her prayers.


I would gladly anticipate a reply to acknowledge this email, so that i can give you further updates about her condition since you are her fiance.


Yours Sincerely
Dr Bojan Franc
Suntan Hospital.
Cotonuo,
De Republic of Benin
