Hallo!
As a longtime reader and one-time kindly contributer, I was searching for a truly funny submission.
Sadly, our Lads are getting smarter and some of my more outrageous attempts quickly petered out.
But one day, I got a letter that a GERMAN bank customer died! Ach du lieber!
Being German myself, I decided to reschpond with my finest Colonel Klink--Dieter from Sprockets --
Insert your German Stereotype here-- persona.
Feel free to use the name Richard DeLarge, it's not my name...
DR MARK AKPUFrom the Desk of: Dr.Mark AkpuUNIVERSL TRUST BANK PLC, NIGERIA . ATTN: MANAGING DIRECTOR/CEO, Sir/Madam, Permit me to introduce myself to you. My name is Dr.Mark Akpu Manager with Universal Trust Bank Plc, Lagos-Nigeria. I came to know about you in my private search for a reliable person/company to handle a confidential transaction on behalf of my Colleagues and myself.As a matter of fact, I got your information from the Nigerian Chamber of Commerce and Industry/Nigerian Export Promotion Council. Proposition A German Mr. Wolfgang Schinister, 66 years of age and a prosperous oil merchant had in our Bank the sum of US$35.5m in a domiciliary account. He named his wife, Mrs. Helga Schinister as the next of kin. Unfortunately, two of them were killed in the recent plane crash involving concord AF4590 in Gonesse, France. blah blah blah ... 35 million, 20% to you, 23 skidoo... I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not disappoint me. Best Regards. Dr. MARK AKPU. What is doubly funny is that "Schinister" is not even a German name. No German would carry a name like that! RICHARD DeLARGEHallo Herr Dokter Akpu,I havfe read your letter mit der great interest. You see, I am German, und mein Englishe ist not so good, but I could easily in place stand for zis personliche, Herr Schinister.

RICHARD DeLARGERichard DeLarge, gets his lederhosen in a twist at not be addressed properly Hallo Herr Doktor Akpu,I wish to addresse some auf zis points in your e-mail. markakpu@hotmail.com wrote: Dear Richard, German people are not like other peoples of za world. We do not immediately call each other by za first name all freundlich-like und such. In Germany, we address each other by our titles und names. You vill notice that you are a doktor, und so I address you as Herr Doktor. My title is Oberbootsmanführer, a position I worked very hard. In future e-mails, please address me as "Herr Oberbootsmanführer DeLarge". I am in receipt of your particulars,thank you. Be informed that the processing of the transaction has commenced.I have submitted the application on your behalf with your particulars as you sent it. Excellent. You are very correct,you talaphone number may not be necessary since you do speak English and I cannot speak your language either. Germans are always correct, it is our national manner. Both at zis time, und für all times. It is my hope that one day you vill schpeak my language, and that all people of all nations vill shpeak one language togezer. Please I will like you to comfirm your ability to travel to Amsterdam,Netherlands to sign the payment release documents and receive the funds over there.This is very important for the finalisation of the transaction.You do not need to be worried about your English when going there. Ze Nederlanders do speak a language similar to my own, but not za same. Why must I go to Nederlands to sign za forms? Why can't you post them to me? Why can't I accept payment in my Deutchebank in Reichsmarks? If travel to Amsterdam is required, I vill go, aber bitte show mich WHY I must to for to taking zis trip? I will send the relevant payment release documents you need to travel with to Amsterdam. You vill send zis before I go to Amsterdam, ya? Also, vill you be there also? I look forward to your reschponse, Alles beste und Sieg Heil, H. ObFhr. Richard DeLarge DR MARK AKPUDr Akpu gets humble with his bad self. Dear Herr Oberbootsmanführer DeLarge, Thank you for your mail.The issues raised in your mail were well understood.First of all I sincerely apologise for having to address you by your first name,it was an error on my part.I beg your pardon. You are right,I forward to speaking your language some day.And hope that the whole world will speak one language some day.It will be wonderful. Yes,it is very important you travel to Netherlands.I had to chose that option because it will be easier for you to travel to Netherlands than coming to my country.It is primarily required for the beneficiary of the funds to sign the documents in the presence of the officials.The documents are classified documents and cannot be posted.And it is not within my power to authorise such.It is also very good because it gives the opportunity to personally direct the officials to assist you in the lodgement of the funds in your bank.It is equally very good because it will be a cash payment with adequate security provided for you. I will prefer you travel to finalise the transaction.I will make arrangement to be with you in Netherlands depending on my work schedule and how soon I am given visa.Otherwise,my personal assistant will come. However,note that I do not want the officials to know that this transaction was initiated by me.This is because every document has been prepared in your name as the beneficiary and it is official.So you do not have to tell the officials that you know me by the time you are contacted.All you have to do is to follow their instuction and the transaction will be successfully completed. The processed documents shall be sent to you before you travel.That is what you will present to the officials to show that you are the beneficiary of the funds.Your identification is also very important.You will use your International Passport or Driver's licence for identification.I will urge you to work towards trvelling before the end of next week. Take good care of yourself and good luck. Expecting to hear from you. Best wishes, Dr.Mark. DR MARK AKPUDear Herr Oberbootsmanführer DeLarge,Our project refers. I wish to confirm if you actually got my mail of yesterday?I have been eager to hear from you since morning. The documents have been successfully completed in your name as the beneficiary of the funds.I will send them to you on Monday next week. I would like to inform you that you may be contacted any moment from today for the finalisation of the transaction.Please ensure to co-operate fully with the officials when they contact you.Incase there is anything you do not understand from the officials,please do not hesitate to notify me immediately so that we can look at it together. Note that this is a very crucial stage of the transaction and should be handle well.I know that you are well able to handle it well considering your years of experience in business. Expecting to hear from you soon. Best wishes, Mark.

Hallo,I am Helga, die secretary. Herr Oberbootsmanführer Richard DeLarge has nicht called mich on der phonen. His flight must have landed three hours ago. Did the security company meet him? He gave them strict instructions und they said they would send out their protocol office to collect him. Do have a number for the security company? Is it a mobile number (316, 318-19, 3116)? Because calling a mobile number from Germany requires a special code, und I don't have za code. It must be 3120 number.... Seig Heil, Fraulein Helga Grossenbruscht and then: FRAULEIN HELGAHerr Dokter Akpu,Ich bin ein Helga. I just sent you an e-mail about Herr Oberbootsmanführer! I know nothing, nothing! about where he is or whom collected him. Worried und anxious be I also! You said you woukld bring ein present when you come to Germany? What will you bring mich? Are you single? I am unmarried and it hard to find a good man. If you sent me your picture, I will sent you mine. I work for Herr Oberbootsmanführer, that is all. He is a very respected man. Seig Heil, Fraulein Helga Grossenbruscht DR MARK AKPUIt seems Doctor mark isn't buying Helga...Dear Herr Oberbootsmanführer Richard Delarge, I am confused and somewhat disappointed.How come your "secretary" have access to your private email box?Initially,I beleived but I have taken time to study the language and I am very much in doubt of "her" claim. Why should you do this to me?I have put my resoucrces into this transaction and even had to borrow to be able to get the transaction to this stage.I want to appeal that you do not jeopardise my chances of realising the transaction.You have to be very careful with what you send to the Security company please.I do not want them to start suspecting that this is perhaps a deal.I have secured the vital approvals in line with due process.The transaction must be realised. I have resorted to prayers.Let God take control of the situation.I want to sound it very clear that I mean good for you and I. Expecting to hear from you. Best wishes, Dr.Mark Akpu. FRAULEIN HELGABut Helga isn't giving up without a fight... Herr Dokter Akpu,Ich bin ein Helga.

My family und his family has lived in same village for as long as anyone can remember, over 500 years or more. Herr Oberbootsmanführer speaks very little English, und cannot write in English. All za letters you recieved were getranslateired by mich! Now, I am considering calling the police, as Herr Oberbootsmanführer has not called und you have not given me a number to call the Security company whose protocol officer was supposed to collect him. It is 10 pm and I am shaking in tears. Please send me the phone number (my seconds request) so I kann find our beloved Oberbootsmanführer. The job market ist nicht so gut in Germany, und if anything happened to Herr Oberbootsmanführer, I would be work loose. Seig Heil, Fraulein Helga Grossenbruscht What will happen next? Will Helga find true love? Will Herr Oberbootsmanführer get lost in the cathouses of Amsterdam? Will Dr Mark learn more German? All this and more in "AS THE SCHNITZEL TURNS!" THE LADS ARE REGULAR READERS :-) I actually got an e-mail this morning from Dr Mark (who read the letter on Scam-o-rama), it simply said, "YOU ARE A BASTARD". That's love. Keep up the good work. All the best, der Oberbootsmanführer |
