BAMAKO MALI WEST AFRICA.
I am contacting you in regards to a business transfer of a huge sum of money from a deceased account. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make anyone apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day. We decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.
PROPOSITION;
I discovered an abandoned sum of $10M(Ten Million United states Dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his entire family.
Since his death,none of his next-of-kin or relations has come forward to lay claims to this money as the heir.
We cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. Upon this discovery, i now seek your permission to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased as all documentations will be carefully worked out by me for the funds $10M(Ten Million United states Dollars) to be released in your favour as the beneficiary's next of kin. It may interest you to note that i have secured from the probate an order of madamus to locate any of deceased beneficiaries.
(1) Full names:
(2) Private phone number:
(3) Current residential address:
(4) Occupation:
(5) Age and Sex:
These requirements will enable me file a letter of claim to the appropriate departments for necessary approvals in your favour before the transfer can be made. I shall be compensating you with 40% on final conclusion of this project, while the rest shall be for me. Your share stays with you while the rest shall be for me for investment purposes in your country. If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust we have bestowed in you, I await your urgent email.
Best Regards,
Foda Bama

As you can see from the contents of above mail, you will see that this is snare to capture a potential prey, however as I always done whenever I received such mail from unknown and faceless person sending business mail proposal, I will do the following to ascertain some data and part of it are the following.
1 Starting with mail address from which Mr Bama is sending his mail from (mc4real@mc4real.com), You can see that, his is sending from "legitimate" mail address which is host on a server somewhere in the world and slicing the mail apart, we will see that he is sending his mail from a web address called http://www.mc4real.com however when you check that site at http://www.mc4real.com, you will discovered that no contents existed on that site, hence your curiousity you should be raised, as these guy claimed to be in possession of $10M(Ten Million United states Dollars) and can not avoid to get someone to design a website for him at rate of $100
