Free Ericsson and Nokia Laptops and Celphones | SCAM

Today I received one of those chain emails that say you can get your free Ericsson T18 or R320 laptop. First of all, T18 and R320 are not laptops, they are celphones! The message instructed that you have to send a copy to anna.swelung@ericsson.com, as you can see, the email address belongs to ericsson.com. However if you try sending an email to it, it will return a Mailer Daemon Failure notice. I checked the Ericsson website regarding this issue, and they said the following:

"About the "Free Phone" Email Hoax
Ericsson is not giving away free phones. The chain mail you have received is a fraud and there is no person with the name of Anna Swelund working at Ericsson. At Ericsson, we are constantly looking at new innovative ways to market ourselves, chain e-mails are not one of them. We kindly ask you not to forward the chain mail further.

Thank you." Source: http://www.ericsson.com/ca/hoax.shtml

So there you have it. If you receive an email like that, don't pass it on.

Attn:

I am MR KENNETH KINGIBE Bank Manager of Union Bank of NIGERIA.I have an urgent and
confidential business proposal for you. I got your information in my search for reliable
partners who can assist me actualize this arrangement.

PROPOSAL:

On June 6, 1999, an American oil merchant and Contractor with the NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM
CORPORATION, MR KEN POWER, made a numbered time Fixed Deposit for twelve (12) calendar
months, valued at US$28,000,000.00 (Twenty-Eight Million United states Dollars) in my branch.

Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.
After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers,
THE NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION that MR KEN POWER died from an automobile
accident.

On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL and all attempts to
trace his NEXT OF KIN were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered
that MR KEN POWER did not declare any KIN OR RELATIONS IN ALL HIS OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS,
INCLUDING HIS BANK DEPOSIT PAPER WORK IN MY BANK.

This sum of US$28,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled
over with the principal sum at the end of each year. NO PERSON WILL EVER COME FORWARD TO
CLAIM IT. According to NIGERIAN LAW, at the expiration of 9 (NINE ) YEARS, the money will
revert to the ownership of the NIGERIAN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IF NOBODY APPLIES TO CLAIM THE
FUND.

Consequently, my proposal is that I WANT YOU TO STAND IN AS THE NEXT OF KIN/BENEFICIARY OF
THIS FUND DEPOSIT SO THAT THE FUND CAN BE RELEASED TO YOU FOR OUR MUTUAL BENEFIT. If you will
assist me, send down the following Information’s.I will require them for operation.

1: YOUR FULL NAMES AND ADDRESS
2: YOUR PRIVATE PHONE AND FAX NUMBERS
3: YOU’RE OCCUPATION, MARITAL STATUS, DATE / YEAR OF BIRTH.

WILL BE MY OWN SHARE WHILE (5%) WILL BE SET ASIDE TO COVER ALL INCIDENTAL EXPENSES MADE BOTH
AT HOME AND ABROAD BEFORE CONCLUSION OF THIS DEAL.

THIS TRANSACTION IS 100% RISK FREE as all the paper works that will be required to effect
this fund transfer will be obtained from the federal ministry / high court of justice by an
Attorney hear in Nigeria, and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful
execution of this arrangement.

More so, ALL ASPECTS OF THIS TRANSACTION ( FROM THE FIRST TO THE LAST ),WILL BE CONDUCTED
LEGALLY in such a manner that it will not constitute a breach of the Law either in your

Dearest One.

My name is Lora Dan, the only Daugter of Dr Albert Dan from Republic of Cote D'Ivoire.
I know it is normal and natural for you to wonder why I contacted for assistance in this transaction when we have not met each other before, I am pleading that you be patient with me because I have no choice than to do what I am doing now since it is the only way out of this problem I found myself based on the fact that most times in life, One must confide in another Person to survive,

I therefore decided to contact you to find a solution to my problem irrespective of the fact that we never knew each other, please do not misunderstand me since a journey of hundred miles starts with a step, I am therefore begging you to accept me with an open heart and mind, it is the situation I found myself that made me to contact you and ask for your assistance.

I am contacting you to assist me transfer the Sum of US$5,500.000.00 I inherited from my Late Father which he made from the sale of Crude Oil and Coco Business for investment in your Company under your Management while I continue my education because my education stopped abruptly due to the death of my Father. My mother died after giving birth to me, so I never knew my mother. Behold, my only hope and courage in life which was my father was brutally killed by unknown assasins.

Moreover, I am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as compensation for your effort/input after the successful transfer of the fund into your nominated account overseas, while 5% will be set aside to offset any expenses we may incur.

Many thanks to you if you can help me Please contact me immediately you receive this message through this email address if you are interested; lora_dan2009@yahoo.fr
