Barrister John Bowe / Assurance Bank Nigeria Limited
Didn't check out.internet Ripoff! Lagos

My husband got an email saying an Engineer with the same last name died several years ago and left a hefty sum of 12 million US dollars. This would be split with Mr. John Bowe, Barrister who was soliciter and personal attorney to the deceased relative (who wasn't really a relative, but it didn't matter).

The first thing that raised suspicion was it was sent to my email not his. The second was the hushed nature and the fact it was being transmitted via email. I knew it was a scam, but emailed back and said if you can furnish legitimate credentials, death certificates, and such for our attorney to read over and if there is no money on our part involved in the process and no personal inforation such as bank acct. Numbers or SS#. Etc. Then go for it!

So I was sent back another letter with the name of a contact Emeka Emmanuel Director of Foreign Operations Dept. Lagos, Nigeria and the phone number of 234-1-4751193. I was supposed fill out their form to get the money transferred. But I looked up the banks in Lagos, Nigeria and all the branches were listed, with none having that same number or even close. I looked up the nigerian Bar for attorneys, John Bowe is not listed, nor is he listed in the yellow pages or the white pages.

So... It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out, then I came upon this web site and it sounds just too familiar. Thanks.
