Well, this is a new one. I am being invited to do business with "one of the greatest business Mongols of all time." I feel so special!

Anyway, thought I'd pass this latest scam along for what it may be worth. It's funny, anyway.

Best Regards,

Dear
Please permit me your attention to introduce to your organization a very lucrative business. I work as a junior executive in a consultancy firm. My name is Mr.Oliver Kone.

My boss is in business with one of the greatest business Mongols of all time.We are talking about Alhaji Mabolo Dongo.The president of Dongo Group of Farms.The owner of the biggest cattle farm in West Africa and The Biggest fish farmer.This is the man they call the food basket of Africa. His cocoa and palm tree plantations are the biggest and his vegetable oil plants are located in the 16 West African countries.

Now my boss supplies this Business magnet an essential vaccine at the price of US4,900. per carton, and sometimes we supply up to 2000 or 3000 cartons. Briefly,I am contacting you because my boss traveled to china and he will be there for two month. Now,I received a letter from the Dongo Group, requesting two thousand cartons supply of the vaccine.I have called back to the Dongo Group and informed them that my boss traveled,he will not be back soon and since they need the vaccine urgently,that I will introduce them directly to the Manufacturers of the vaccine from where my boss buy.

The President of the Dongo Group invited me to his Presence and I confirmed my word to him, and he promised me his confidence and to deal only with me if I can do this.HOWEVER I TOLD HIM THAT THE MANUFACTURERS RECEIVE 70% ADVANCE PAYMENT BEFORE THEY WILL SELL THE VACCINE. I know where my boss buy this vaccine in Europe. The Price of the vaccine is US$2000. per carton. I will need you to contact Alhaji Mabolo Dongo and Inform him that you are the manufacturer of the vaccine and that you will sell to him at the price of US$4,400 per carton.

You will inform him to make 70% advance payment as is the Procedure.He will not hesitate to send the money immediately. If your organization is interested to be my partners in this transaction, please contact me immediately in my private mailbox.The box is🙁 oliver_kone25@yahoo.fr ) so that we can discuss on how to execute this lucrative deal.

Sincerely.
Mr.Oliver Kone.

If you have an anonymous email account (dynamic IP address is a good idea, too) you might consider wasting his time for as long as you care to. Always a good time, especially if you can actually make them mad. 🙂
 
Ask him to mail a photograph of himself holding up a board on which is written:

'T.W.A.T. (Trustworthy With All Transactions).'

Just to prove he is who he says he is.
 
Write back that you represent an investment company and are interested in a greatly expanded business opportunity with him and his leader.
 
write back that you had a similar offer from another company in West Africa, but that the advance payment was 80%, Their selling price is $5995 per carton, but their purchase cost is only $1500. Sp why would you bother with him.

Then tell him to produce a letter of credit from an International Banking House for the number of cases he wishes to purchase from you at $3000, a special discount due to his urgent need, and you can ship directly from current stock in your Lagos, Nigeria warehouse.
 
OK, can we get off the Mongol jokes, please? Those who know me, will understand why.

I think the writer meant to say biggest Moron. 🙂

Remy, I believe he meant "business mogul"... a great personage, a magnate (not magnet of course!). Writer did really get it messed up.

But oddly enough, "mogul" in English, now implying a powerful rich business person, seems to have derived from a powerful personage, the Great Mogul or Mughul, one of the Mongol conquerors of India or their descendants. So it does wrap back to the term the writer wrongly used!
 
actually, the word surprised me, it's clear the person who wrote it has some bare french skills, though in french Mongol designates either an inhabitant of mongolia, or it's a rough (bad) way to designate a trisomic person.
