Here is an actual email that I believe is part of this terrible scam. I must assure you I did not answer this email. Telephone: 228084460
Dear Sir,
I am Akunor Rawlings, a cousin of former president of Federal Republic of Ghana, Jerry Rawlings, and I also held an appointment during his 10yrs in office as General Manager in charge of Ministry of Solid Mineral such as Gold, Diamond, Bauxites etc.
During this 10yrs tenure, I managed to secure a large quantity of Gold and Diamond secretly before he handed over power to his successor Mr. John Kuffour. When he took over power, information got to me that new president is aware of this large deposit of Gold and Diamond that is in my possession, and because of this, I have to look for a way to dispose it.
To this end, I contacted a friend of mine in a neighboring Country Federal Republic of Togo, who helped me to sell Gold and Diamond for a total of $18.5Million (Eighteen Million, Five Hundred United States Dollars), which is now deposited in a security company in Lome, Togo.
Because of my relationship as cousin of former president of Federal Republic of Ghana, Jerry Rawlings, my Togolese friend suggested that we should move this entire fund Overseas to avoid being traced by present Ghanaian president.
However, I am now asking you to be my partner in this transaction. Therefore, if you are interested, kindly contact me through my e-mail address or call me on my telephone number in Togo: 228084460 so that we can discuss on modalities for a smooth transfer of entire fund into your nominated bank account Overseas.
For your participation, I will offer you 15% of entire fund but which is subject to negotiation.
Meanwhile, I am looking forward to hearing from you so as to plan on next line of action to execute this mutual beneficial transaction.
Yours sincerely,
Akunor Rawlings.
