Posted by: mcamp999 - 10-04-2006, 12:11 PM - Forum: Banter and ALL - Replies (7)

Confidential Document.

Hello My Good Friend.

I am Mr.Zuma Johnson the chief auditor of NED BANK of South Africa. I got
your contact address from your country s website. Your impressive and
managerial records made me to solicit for your partnership in these regards.
You are the only person that I have contacted for this business as at now,
with the believe that you will not let me down. After going through some old
files in the records during the audit for the year in my own department
which I am heading now, I discovered that there was an account opened in
our bank since 1992, and since then till now, nobody has operated on this
very account.

The owner of this account as I discovered secretly from our bank new record
is late Mr.Zoran Sanford, a foreigner from the Anglo-Gold Platinum Mining
Company in Mafikeng south africa here, as a geologist by his profession he
died since 1992 and since his death his family members dont know that he
keeps such money in our Bank , Up till now, and no other person knows
about this death man's account or anything concerning his money , no other
persons name or group was putting as the beneficiary ( next of kin ) of
this money because according to my investigation which I made last few
months ago proved to me that his family and his company does not know
anything about this account , because the company have fold up after the
death of late Mr.Zoran Sanford, the said foreigner in south Africa here

And the amount he deposited in this discovered account was $ 5Million. SO I
want to transfer this $5 Million (Five Million Us Dollars) to your safe
foreign account in United States . But I need a trusted foreigner from
United States who I Will change his name as the next of skin to Mr.Zoran
Sanford, so he can claim this money in his or her name as the beneficiary
which I will secretly replace the name of any willing persons inside file at
our bank hence this money is own by a foreigner not a citizen from United
States.
I am just contacting you as a foreigner because this money can not be
approved to a local bank here, but can be approved to any foreign account
because the money is in US dollars and the former owner of the account
Mr.Zoran Sanford, was a foreigner as I said and this money , needs to
involve a foreign account according to bank procedures.So I need your full
co-operation in order for both of us to make this money smoothly and
secretly because the management is ready to approve this payment to who so
ever that has correct informations to this very account of which I will
give to you later, if you are able to handle such amount in secret
confidence and trust according to my instruction and advice for our mutual
benefits because this opportunity will never come again in my life.

I need your strong assurance, honesty, trust and reliability because with my
position now in the office now! . There is nothing to be afraid of again.
With my full position now at my department I can even transfer this money to
any reliable account, which you can provide to me with assurance that this
money will be intact pending my physical arrival for sharing of this money,
I will destroy all documents of the transaction immediately you receive this
money in your account to avoid leaving any trace of this account,
You can also come here for us to discuss with me face-to-face then the
remittance will be made in the presence of both of us. Then we will fly to
your country at least two days ahead before money gets into your private
account.
Be assured that you stand no risk of any kind as the fund belongs to us now.
Therefore, after the eventual stage of the transfer of this fund, I am
offering you 35% of the total fund, 50% will be for me while 10% will be set
aside for expenses that we may be incurred during the course of transferring
the money .
I strongly believe that associating with you to embark on this fund will
yield a very good fruit of getting this money out for the benefit of both of
us. I will use my position to influence the approval for the onward
transfer of this money to your personal account with the appropriate
clearance forms from the ministry of Finance and foreign exchange
Remmittance department.
I am counting on your sense of confidentiality, as it is my desire now, keep
this to yourself. Unless otherwise indicated or obvious from the nature of
this transmittal, the information contained in this email message is
privileged and confidential information intended for you as individual or
identity named above. Please to fasten this transaction, kindly give me your
private or personal contact address, phone number, fax number for easy
communication on this money. Am Looking forward to hear urgent response
from you.

Note : You don`t need to pay any money from your pocket regarding this, I
have to see that I get a sponsor whom will take care of any payment of the
transfer ,


YOURS FRIEND
Mr.Zuma Johnson.
Chief auditor of Ned bank of South Africa.

  What would motivate you to attend a cookery school/ lessons?
Posted by: Cheffie - 10-04-2006, 08:57 AM - Forum: Food Matters - Replies (34)

Hi all

I am conducting some research into what would motivate you to attend/ sign up for cookery lessons, learning from a professional.

Any comments would be appreciated along with any experiences you have had whilst attending cookery demo's/ instructions.

My questions are as follows:

a. What would be your primary motivation?
b. What kind of food would you like/ love to learn how to cook?
c. What is the amount you're willing to pay for lessons?
d. Have you ever attended cookery lessons/ school?
e. Would you prefer 'hands on' or 'demonstration' type of lessons?
f. Can your other half cook?
g. Would you be interested in doing 'couple's cooking'?
h. Would you be interested in learning just a few dishes and mastering them or a wider selection?
i. Do you panic at the thought of hosting dinner parties?


I'm sure there'll be follow up questions along the way but feel free to make any other suggestions.
G

  How to get a Porche on the NHS
Posted by: Joan - 09-04-2006, 02:27 PM - Forum: Banter and ALL - Replies (4)

Sunday Times 9 April 2006..

Just briefly:
Snr health managers are being provided with luxury cars... some receive up to £6,600 per year to lease cars they can subsequently buy at a discount.


The bill for leasing the 35 000 cars for NHS staff is now close to £90 million.... it coincides with t growing cash crisis in the NHS with total deficits estimated at more than £88million and trusts cancelling operations and threatening more than 5,000 job cuts (nurses, etc and not health managers!!!)

Last year the government paid outside consultants £2 000 per day to review the scheme nationally, but despite this excercise, the annual cost of lasing each company car rose by £175.

Perhaps we should all become consultatants to the NHS.....not of the medical kind, but those that supply financial advice?


Now we know how to get a Jaguar, Mercedes, Lexus or even a Porche on the NHS

  Card Scam
Posted by: Oom Rob - 09-04-2006, 02:02 AM - Forum: Banter and ALL - Replies (1)

Received this information from a trusted friend:

For your information

If you receive a card through your door from a company call PDS (Parcel
Delivery Service) saying that they have a parcel awaiting delivery instructions and can you contact them on 0906 6611911

DO NOT call the number as this is a mail scam originating from Belize

If you call the number and you start to hear a recorded message you will already have been billed £15 for the phone call.

If you do receive a card with these details, then please contact Royal Mail Fraud on 02072396655 or ICTIS at <http://www.icstis.org.uk> or your local trading standards office. This is a genuine scam.

ICTIS have the following information about this number. This is a card posted through your letter box from PDS Parcel Delivery suggesting that they were unable to deliver a parcel and to call the premium rate number in question. This service costs £1.50 per minute. This service is under investigation by ICSTIS.

Please be aware of this scam and forward this information to as many as possible.
Should you receive a card from this company please follow the above instructions
