Wumi Abdul Date:Tue, 25 May 2004 15:08:25 +0200 From:wumi.abdul1@virgilio.it Subject: RE: FROM MISS WUMI. PLEASE HELP US. (IP address is 192.168.70.228, originating from Amsterdam) [192.168.70.228 is 'non-routable', but we're sure Major Tennant did his homework.] Dear Respectful One, GREETINGS, Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship with you. I got your contact from the International web site directory. I prayed over it and selected your name among other names due to it's esteeming nature and the recommendations given to me as a reputable and trust worthy person I can do business with and by their recommenddations I must not hesitate to confide in your for this simple and sincere business. I am Wumi Abdul; the only Daughter of late Mr and Mrs George Abdul. My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan,the economic capital of Ivory Coast before he was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outing to discus on a business deal. When my mother died on the 21st October 1984, my father took me and my younger brother special because we are motherless. Before the death of my father on 30th June 2003 in a private hospital here in Abidjan. He secretly called me on his bedside and told me that he has a sum of $20.500.000 (Twenty Million, five hundred thousand dollars) left in a suspense account in ABIDJAN, that he used my name as his first Daughter for the next of kin in deposit of the fund. He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth and some huge amount of money his business associates supposed to balance his from the deal they had that he was poisoned by his business associates, that I should seek for a God fearing foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose, (such as real estate management). Sir, we are honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways. 1) To provide a Bank account where this money would be transferred to. 2) To serve as the guardian of this since I am a girl of 26 years. Moreover Sir, we are willing to offer you 10% of the sum as compensation for effort input after the successful transfer of this fund to your designate account overseas. Anticipating to hear from you soon. Thanks and God Bless. Best regards. Miss Wumi Abdul NB: My Younger brother Hassan is also with me. Christopher Tennant Date:Sat, 29 May 2004 23:51:25 +0100 (BST) Dear Miss Abdul, I read your email with much misgiving. It is intolerable that your father should be murdered by his business associates. That is not the way things are done here. Here we sue people for what we want. Did your father's business associates have unorthodox lawyers? Life does not seem very pleasant for you. Especially since you are still considered a girl at the age of 26. That's no life for anyone. I'm sorry it's taken so long for me to reply; I have only just returned from holiday in Amsterdam. How can I help? God bless, Dr Christopher Tennant Wumi Abdul Date:Sun, 30 May 2004 15:28:52 +0200 Subject:may God bless you in all. From Miss Wumi. Dear Uncle Christopher Tennant, Thanks and may the great God bless you for your williness to assist me in this transaction. As a matter of fact i will please advise that you should send me your phone number and your fax number, to enable me send you the document my late father use in depositing the money and also the contact of the bank, where my father deposit this money, to enable you contact them as my late father foreign partner that his coming to claim the money from them immediately. but please assure me that if you receive this money in your account, before my arrival to join you in your country, you should please not treat me bad, because this money his the only hope i have in life. thanks and remain bless, as i wait for your soonest respond, to enable us proceed immediately for the transfer of this fund to you immedaitely without any delay, because i realy want to invest this money with you in your country. Good day and May God bless you. From Miss Wumi. Unfortunately Miss Wumi appears to suffer from a rare medical condition that makes her send multiple emails saying exactly the same thing. I received the above twice. Christopher Tennant Date:Sun, 30 May 2004 21:24:17 +0100 (BST) My dear Miss Wumi, thank you very much for your quick response. From the tone of your email, it sounds as if you are in dire straits- I hope you have decent food and a roof over your heads. If not, you'd be surprised how much edible food is thrown out by restaurants. You can just go through the rubbish. A few tramps do that here at the hospital, but I wouldn't recommend it. They would eat the contents of bags labelled 'Hospital waste - incinerate only', and end up in casualty. I remember I haven't yet told you. I work at the Kingdom Hospital in New York. It is a very large hospital, and we are proud of our accomplishments. I work in the neurology dept, where people with head injuries go. This department is highly distinguished, yet I confess to a drop in morale since Dr Helmer became the head of dept here. He's rude and arrogant, and he steals people's research. He won't last long! The address is Kingdom Hospital, Lowdertosch St, Manhattan, New York, NY 90210. I live in the doctors' quarters of the hospital, so I am always near by in case of emergencies. I live with my wife, Janet, and my seven year old son, Jason. I think he'll follow in his dad's footsteps; he's very interested in playing doctor with his little friends already! We do not have a fax. They are antiquated pieces of junk. Can you not scan the documents and send them via email? That would be much easier. And unfortunately I cannot talk to you over the phone, since I am deaf. A few years ago there was an accident involving liquid nitrogen, a syringe and a drunken nurse, who is now rotting in a jail cell. It was most distressing. I have a text phone, though, if you'd like to communicate using that. The number is 718-722-0712. What is our next step? My regards to your brother.

Christopher Tennant Date:Tue, 1 Jun 2004 22:14:12 +0100 Dear Miss Wumi, You must be desperate indeed. In your anguish you've sent me the same email three times in less than a minute. I assure you I am doing everything I can. I will contact the bank as soon as I can work out a plausible story. The bank will wonder why a cocoa merchant had a neurosurgeon as a business partner. Don't worry, I'll think of something. But first, I've got to sort out a little problem at the hospital. Some fool has been driving an empty ambulance into the hospital at the same time every night for the last month. He even sends the same radio messages. Must be some sort of practical joke. I plan to catch him tonight; this is wasting our valuable time. Regards to your brother. Best wishes, Uncle Christopher Christopher Tennant Date:Tue, 1 Jun 2004 22:22:27 +0100 (BST) Subject:Mr George Abdul's legacy To:Miaobank_ci@yahoo.com Dear Dr Henry Mohammed, I believe that Miss Wumi Abdul has already been in touch with you about the transfer of the late Mr George Abdul's hard earned cash to my bank account, where I may use it as the future provision for his children. I am Dr Christopher Tennant, a former business partner of Mr Abdul. (But not one of the partners who killed him. Miss Abdul would have to be stupid indeed to entrust her father's dosh to such shady characters) I have known Mr Abdul for many years, even though ten years ago I started work at the Kingdom Hospital in New York. Mr Abdul highly valued having a neurosurgeon on his staff. It is well known that working with cocoa can trigger life-threatening brain tumours, and I saved many a man's life with a Swiss Army knife and some duct tape. What do you require from me for the transaction to go ahead?

I must apologise for my own delay in replying; recently the basement started flooding here, right during a meeting of the Brethren. It was most inconvenient. Everyone lost their attention and poor Dr Helmer's nose was badly cut with the epee we were using during the ceremony. There are only a couple of questions I'd like to go through before we go any further. 1) Why do I need to come to the Ivory Coast in person? Is it a legal requirement? I think I'd prefer to send a lawyer on my behalf. I will look for one through your national Chamber of Commerce. 2) I do not understand this instruction- 'PLEASE YOU SHOULD RE-CALLFIRM YOUR CONTACT AND SEND IT TO US.' What does it mean? 3) I cannot send you a scan of my passport or driver's license. The internet is full of people wanting to steal details of documents like the ones you mention. You must agree that for my own security I cannot comply with your request. Could you make do with my passport number? As for the other details, My full name is Christopher Sean Tennant.

But Dr Mohammed at the bank keeps on giving me such vague instructions on what I need to do that I despair that we will ever get past this incompetant banking clerk. Dr Helmer, by the way, continues to be most unpleasant. It's getting most upsetting, seeing him steal other people's research. I've taken to being a test subject in our sleep laboratory, where you get paid to sleep and have your brain monitored. It's restful, but I keep on having dreams about heads in lockers and cannibals. Most odd.

After spelling things out in words of one syllable and resorting to emotional blackmail, they might have expected things to speed up. But now things get interesting. You see, I was quite busy around this time, and couldn't write long emails. So to keep them quiet for a few days, I gave them this off the top of my head- Mrs Drusse Date:Wed, 9 Jun 2004 22:51:36 +0100 (BST) To:wumi.abdul1@virgilio.it Good morning. This is an automated reply. Unfortunately Dr Tennant cannot reply at present, since he has been hit by Dr Helmer's car in the hospital car park. As soon as he recovers he will get back to you. We expect it to take a few days before he comes out of his delirium. Yours, Mrs Drusse Secretary to the Neurosurgery Dept, Kingdom Hospital And it worked! I received absolutely no emails from anyone until Tennant recovered. The amount of concern Wumi showed for Tennant's broken body truly tugs the heart strings. Christopher Tennant Date:Sat, 12 Jun 2004 17:10:35 +0100 (BST) Subject:Accident To:wumi.abdul1@virgilio.it My dear Miss Wumi, I have had a most disagreeable week. Dr Helmer ran me over in his Citroen. One moment I'm walking along the street, the next minute this black monster rears up from nowhere and I find myself lying on the floor. He's trying to sue me now for scratching his paintwork. I'll do a lot bloody more than that to him once I regain the use of my legs. That said, I'm not sure I'll have to. During the emergency operation, I almost woke up from the anesthetic. (This happens sometimes to our patients) I'm sure there was a little girl in the room who was pointing to Helmer and saying 'Death'. But I've never seen this girl before. She hasn't appeared since. It's troubling. But back to business. I cannot leave my hospital bed right now, but I'm sure I'll be able to find some way to help the bank, even if they are incompetent. They have to be constantly prodded to provide information on how I am to help them. If this all fails, my dear, I'm sure it'll be their fault. I hope the rebels are not giving you too much trouble. Have you tried calling the police? It's very effective over here in New York. You asked how I married. Well, I met my wife while we were still students at Camford University. I was studying medicine, she was studying business. We married soon after graduating; since we were so attached to the medical department of the university, we decided to tie the knot in one of the lifts. It started on the ground floor, then on the second floor we had been married and everyone else got off the lift, and by the time we reached the top floor Jason (our son) had been conceived. Do let me know how it's going with you. I'd hate to see you or your brother die under gunfire before this deal is complete. Best, Uncle Christopher Christopher Tennant Date:Sat, 12 Jun 2004 17:15:05 +0100 Dear Dr Oseey, I would be transferring the money now, but unfortunately I am indisposed at the moment. You will have to wait awhile. I was involved in a car accident and cannot yet leave my bed. How much money did you want me to send again? Yours, Dr Christopher Tennant Will they mind if I call Dr Mohammed 'Dr Oseey'? Of course not.

From Miss Wumi. Christopher Tennant Date:Tue, 15 Jun 2004 20:33:58 +0100 (BST) Subject:I tried to go to the bank My dear Miss Wumi, thank you very much for your kind message. I hope to prove very shortly that I am a 'reliable person' by sending the bank the money needed. Indeed, so moved and shocked was I by your email, I tried to get to the bank at once. Once I realised that I was not going to get there by dragging myself along the floor with my hands, I convinced the nurse to get me a wheelchair, on the condition that I didn't actually use it. My plan was to get down to the bank unseen, as there would be an uproar if anyone knew I had moved from my bed. As soon as she had gone, I climbed into it, released the brakes and shot off down the corridor. I couldn't use the lifts, or I would have been seen, so I used the fire exit stairs. Unfortunately I could only get down one flight before the chair tipped over, and had I not been wearing a seatbelt I might be in more pain than I am now. I resigned myself to the fact that I'll have to wait to get to the bank, and waited three hours to use the lift unseen to get back up to my room. Hopefully the nurse won't notice the small bruising when she next comes in. So my dear, there is nothing else for it. If the rebels get to you before I can, you'll just have to run. That's what my grandparents did during the Second World War when Hitler invaded France. They had to beg their way over to Portugal via Casablanca, where they could sail to England. (My grandparents, the Lazlos, were important fighters in the Czechoslovakian resistance movement, and obviously the Nazis would have killed them) But don't worry. I'm sure you won't have any trouble from the rebels in the long run. Best wishes, and regards to your brother, Uncle Christopher Wumi Abdul Date:Wed, 16 Jun 2004 14:27:40 +0200 Dear Uncle Christopher, I am very worried towards the delay in this transaction, because as i told you ealier this money his the only hope i have in life. so please act fast and claim this money from the bank immediately, because i must confess to you that am not happy towards your delay in this transaction, because right now the bank are waiting for you to open this account with them, to enable them transfer this fund to you immediately without any delay. please you should kindly send the money to the bank immediately, dont you know anything can happen to the money, if you delay so much, please i have promise with name of God that any money you spend, you should take it out, once you receive the fund in your account. Furthermore, i have already send the document which my late father use in depositing the money to the bank and i have also do the change of ownershilp document in your name as my late father foreign partner who his coming for the claim, please do act fast and claim this money from them, without any delay, because right now the bank are waiting for you. I will please that you should try and reach the bank today and pay them for the opening of this non-residental account in your name, to enable them lodge the fund in, for onwards transfer to your nominated account in your country. thanks and may God protect you. From Miss Wumi, TODAY? The amount of pestering that Tennant is getting is staggering, considering he's now paralyzed from the waist down. If it weren't so funny, it'd be disgusting. No, wait, it's both funny AND disgusting. Wumi Abdul Date:Fri, 18 Jun 2004 13:27:00 +0100 (BST) My dear Miss Wumi, trust me, I am acting as fast as possible. But you must appreciate that it is very hard to move when you are tied to a life support machine. I have been trying to get back to normal life as fast as possible. I insisted on being allowed to operate on a patient today, and they acceded to my request. Unfortunately my wheelchair was not high enough for me to lean over the operating table, so I rigged up a little contraption allowing me to hang from the ceiling over the patient. Luckily it could take my weight, and everything was a complete success. I am very much afraid that I am going to have to get Nurse Rachett to send the payment on my behalf. Do not worry; I shall tell her nothing about you or your predicament. I will simply tell her it is payment for some of my wife's relatives, who have been stranded in Africa after their jeep broke down. That should be enough. I will get onto the bank as soon as the nurse comes back. Best wishes, Uncle Christopher Even that couldn't satisfy the avaricious Miss Wumi. The following was sent twice.

From Miss Wumi, Christopher Tennant Date:Fri, 18 Jun 2004 15:44:41 +0100 (BST) My dear Miss Wumi, do I detect a note of impatience in your email? I appreciate that you may be over run by rebels with heavy artillery at any moment, but since I cannot use my legs I have been in a severe quandry. You have never been out of my thoughts, and I have spent a lot of thinking about how to handle this. Fortunately Nurse Ratchett has just come back with the Western Union details. I shall forward them to the bank. Best wishes, Uncle Christopher PS- Regards to your brother, as always. Bello Oseey/Dr Henry Mohammed Date:Fri, 18 Jun 2004 15:53:25 +0100 (BST) Dear Dr Mohammed, my nurse has sent the money to Mrs Smith via Western Union. The details are- Sender's name- Angela Rachett Question- Who is my favourite director? Answer- Lars von Trier I don't know if you have seen any films by Lars von Trier. I chose his name because it is rather obscure, so there is less chance of people successfully guessing. I mean, imagine if I chose George Lucas. Not that anyone would choose George Lucas after the last two disasterous Star Wars films, but anyway. That doesn't matter. I hope we can now get a move on with this. I apologise most sincerely for the delay, but I still can't walk. I hope to do so by the end of next week. Yours sincerely, Dr Christopher Tennant Bello Oseey/Dr Henry Mohammed Date:Mon, 21 Jun 2004 04:18:06 -0700 (PDT) Attn: Mr Christopher Tennant, This is to inform you that I was in the office of western union money transfer this morning to collect the money you sent to open this non-residental account in your name where your fund will be lodge in for onward transfer to you, but to my greatest surprise the money was not sent. As a matter of urgencey can you find out from the nurse and get back to me. I was highly humilated by this kind of thing, anyway try as much as possible to include the full details on how the money was sent,such as the control numbers, the full name of the sender. I look forward to your urgent response. Be Well, From Dr Henry Mohammed.

Dear Christopher, I have just had a call from the bank that you gave them wrong information asper the money you said you paid for the open of the account. please if you know you are a joker, you should not let me down, because this money his the only hope i have in life, am not here to joke with anybody,i realy need someone to assist me not to delay my furture or do you think this transaction is a childs play or what. i need your urgent respond to this mail. From Miss Wumi, No WU payment was made? Shock! Horror! The banking official and the orphan were so befuddled I again received multiple emails from both! And the plot is about to thicken! Wumi Abdul Date:Mon, 21 Jun 2004 20:25:44 +0100 (BST) Dear Miss Wumi, I am confused as to why the bank officials could not pick up the payment. I am going to look into it. You'll hear from me quite soon. Please rest assured that I'm taking this as seriously as you. After all, it is my money I'm using in this affair. I don't want to lose it unnecessarily. Regards, Christopher Christopher Tennant Date:Mon, 21 Jun 2004 21:16:22 +0100 (BST) Subject:Nurse Ratchett took the money My dear Miss Wumi, I have now found out what has happened. It is quite incredible. I would have trusted Nurse Ratchett with my life, yet she betrayed me. She betrayed the whole hospital. She has vanished into thin air with my money, and not only my money; we strongly suspect her of embezzling hospital funds. Funds for extra beds, funds for charity work, funds for building renovation, and she even took that large thermometer drawing we were using to indicate how much money we had in our Raising the Roof appeal. Not to mention the basket of fruit left for Mrs Edwards in the neurosurgery department. Mrs Edwards would have been devastated if she were conscious. For the past hour, I've been informed, the Mantle Clinic has been on the phone to our department. They run the charity Anacephalics'R'Us, and the director was distraught. We had raised almost half a million dollars for them, and Nurse Ratchett took it. She took over $3 million! Police are crawling everywhere. They are convinced she is still in New York, but has gone into hiding. As soon as he heard this, I am told, Dr Helmer lept into his car, despite having been suspended from driving after having hit me, and drove off. I do not know where he has gone. So of course the bank couldn't pick up the payment, since Nurse Ratchett didn't send it. Don't worry, I shall send it again soon. I have started fantasizing about experimental surgery I could use on that damned bitch nurse. Regards, Christopher So poor Chris has now been paralyzed and robbed. The scammers don't seem particularly interested.

From Miss Wumi, Wumi Abdul Date:Wed, 23 Jun 2004 20:17:07 +0100 (BST) Subject:I've got the money back Dear Miss Wumi, I've had an extraordinary couple of days, my dear. You will be pleased to hear that Nurse Ratchett has been caught. It seems that Dr Helmer had information as to her whereabouts and went over as quickly as possible to confront her. I assume that the man was in a panic, however, since when he saw her he accelerated and hit her at about 40mph. The ambulance arrived within minutes, and Ratchett was taken to Casualty- Casualty in Kingdom Hospital. I am pleased to say that I was one of those invited to operate, and I showed her I could inflict more damage removing things from her body than she could removing things from my wallet. About about ten minutes of experimental surgery, greatly enjoyed by all, and relayed by video to the Mantle Clinic in Canada, Ratchett couldn't tell us where the money was fast enough. I have now retrieved it, and I thought it would be safer to send it myself. I have now been allowed out of my room, so I was able to wheel myself to the Western Union office. I am just about to contact MiaoBank with the details. Do not worry, my dear. Your troubles are almost over. My regards to your brother. Uncle Christopher Christopher Tennant Date:Wed, 23 Jun 2004 20:21:47 +0100 (BST)From:"Christopher Tennant" Subject:I've sent the money again To:"Bello Oseey" Miaobank_ci@yahoo.com Dear Dr Mohammed, I am very sorry to get back to you so late. People have been in uproar over here- the nurse who was supposed to send you the money stole it. You will be glad to hear that she was caught, however, and I persuaded her to give me it back. I sometimes despair of finding honest people in the world. I have sent the money myself, as I am now allowed to leave the hospital. I can stand on my own two feet again, even if I can't yet walk more than five metres. The question and answer is the same, but this time the sender is Dr Christopher Sean Tennant. I hope this will be enough for you to obtain the money.

Dear Uncle Christopher, uncle christopher if you know you are not capable to do this transaction with me, please kindly let me know on time, because i can no more take more nonsence of this, just imagine the bank called me and seriousely embarising me, that you are not a relaible person, because you told them you have send the money for the opening of this account for you, but they went to claim this money, nothing like such, why are you treating me this way or are you joking with my future or what. i am very tired of this mess. from miss wumi. Christopher Tennant Date:Thu, 24 Jun 2004 14:50:00 +0100 (BST) My dear Miss Wumi, I am not responsible for the no doubt incompetent bank officials. It is not very hard to pick money up from the Western Union office. I went to my local WU office to check up on things, and the money was indeed transferred. But nobody has been to pick it up. I can only assume that the bank is lying or is too foolish to follow through on simple instructions. It is, I confess, a bit upsetting that you believe BaioBank over me, but since you are clearly under great pressure, I can allow for irrationality. Have the rebels actually arrived yet? I am going to email MiaoBank and complain in the strongest possible terms about their ineptitude. Can you think of any other way I can transfer the money? Have you got a bank account I can use for direct transfer? Regards to you and your brother, Uncle Christopher Christopher Tennant Date:Thu, 24 Jun 2004 15:10:27 +0100 (BST) Subject:Get it right this time To:"Bello Oseey" Miaobank_ci@yahoo.com Dear Dr Mohammed, it is becoming clear to me that your organization could not use an ATM cashpoint if you were helped. You fail to pick up my money, and then heap the blame onto me. I've checked at the WU office over here- the money was successfully sent. But nobody has been to pick it up. Since two of you went to get it, I can only assume that you're blaming me in a weak attempt to cover up your own incompetence and embarrassing failure. Indeed, I have a feeling that were an entire legion of your bank clerks sent to Western Union, they still wouldn't be able to get the money. Perhaps you use chimps as employees. You do not need the control number, but here it is anyway- 3752969588. Should you have any trouble with this, please call the New York branch of Western Union that I used on 718-722-0712. Please explain the whole situation, and someone should be able to help you. There is no need to swear at me. I have been through a lot of strife over the past few weeks, and I don't need someone scapegoating me when they couldn't open a can of baked beans that was already opened. Go and try again, and get it right this time. I wouldn't even be emailing you if I weren't trying to help a young woman and her brother escape a band of vicious rebels. You are holding this up, and should anything happen to them, I hold you responsible. Yours, Dr Christopher Tennant Like last time, the number is for the NY branch of the US Secret Service. But the scammers have now had enough. After all the fun I've given them, you'd expect them to be a little more gracious. And even in defeat, they can't bring themselves to admit to me that they are scammers.

To you. so called christopher you must be a fool, because i thaught you are relaible person, not knowing you are a fool. i wanted us investing on this money, but is urfurtunate that i can not deal with someone that is not relaible and trust worthy like you. mind you i have gotting someone that his ready to assist me not a fool like you and i have forwarded all information to him about the bank, so you should please stop contacting me and the bank, because it seems you want to cause poroblem between me and the bank, let me let you know, if not the dealth of my father, i dont think i will ever plead for a help from you , because my father is capable to do anything for us, if not his dealth. may the almighty God reward you for your useless act and for wasting my time because you are full of lies with you. good day and never in your life write me again, fulk you and your so called money you send to your mum, not the bank. you never send nothing, which i know ealier that his why i did not send you the document my late father use in depositing the money for you, to not act stupid with my furture. fulk you. from miss wumi. Christopher Tennant Date:Fri, 25 Jun 2004 21:37:17 +0100 (BST) Subject:If you so choose, so be it My dear Miss Wumi, it upsets me dearly that you choose to believe the morons at the bank over me. However, I cannot sway you from your decision. But mark my words, the day will come when the rebels will be raping you while the bank managers abscond with all your money. And then you will truly regret not having trusted me. I have withdrawn my money from Western Union. No point in letting that useless bank official take it. You'll be pleased to hear that I am now walking. Nurse Ratchett continues to be a blubbering mound of nerves following her capture. No hard feelings, my dear. Regards to you and your brother. Dr Christopher Tennant What shady characters will Tennant next find in his inbox? Will they be orphans? Bank officials? Terminally-ill widows recently converted to Christianity? Will they get his money? (The answer is no.) Tune in next time! Regards, Christopher Tennant |
