Embassy of Libya, The Hague, Netherlands; Fund Transfer Assistance
Dear Sir,
I have decided to contact you to assist us transfer and deposit this sum of money mentioned below into your personal account or any other account you decide safe.
In a brief introduction, I am an embassy attaché with the Libyan Government in The Hague, Netherlands. We are currently auditing and rectifying the account of our Foreign Missions and Embassies abroad and in particular in Europe. This excise is necessitated by the on-going political change in my country under the National Transitional Council (NTC). It is expected that there will be new Ambassadorial posting in the coming months which will definitely affect the present Ambassador and all staff of Libya Embassy in The Netherlands.
However, in the course of our auditing, we have huge sum of excess money in the tune of US$8,500,000.00 (Eight Million, Five Hundred Thousand U.S Dollars) which is lying loose and unclaimed in one of the local banks here in The Netherlands. We have quickly and smartly in collaboration with the Ambassador and some authorities in the National Transitional Council (NTC) decided to keep this money to ourselves. We are taking advantage of our position and that of the political instability in my country to do this knowing that nobody will find out. However, we would like to move this money further to another foreign account, preferably outside The Netherlands.
To this effect, and for reason of anonymity, we have chosen you through the international search directory to assist us in transferring and depositing this money in your personal bank account or any other account you deemed safer. This recommendation is based on the fact that you will not betray the trust and confidence we are reposing on you. We have decided thereafter, to give you 30% of the US$8,500,000.00 for your assistance and corroboration while the rest 70% will be safely kept for us.
Please kindly indicate your interest to assist us keep this money in your account as soon as possible. It is also my pleasure to inform you that every arrangement to release the money from the bank here has been concluded. This business is totally risk free.
Finally, we expect you in confidence and trust to keep every aspect of this transaction secret and confidential as any mistake will put my future career in jeopardy. I may invite you or visit you for one on one discussion and perfection of the deal as soon I confirm that you can handle the transaction.
Thanks for your anticipated co-operation, while waiting for your acceptance to assist us.

There must be loads of money lying around because I get a couple of similar every day in my spam box. A recent trend was for the emails to include lots of warning to be careful about all those other spammers/fraudsters.
Some people must be falling for these or they'd just give up. Does anyone know anyone who has fallen victim to this, because I don't.

I know someone who conned the 'Conners'.
This was before they changed their tactics. At that point, they put money into your account just prior to re-extracting it and the remainder of your balance.
He had it all transferred, immediately, into a second account with a different (legal) name and closed down the original account.
He can't touch the transferred sum but he has benefit of the interest from it and can show it as a 'deposit' in his credit.
