Barrister Jean Celestin Zouri Esq claims to be the legal advocate of Mrs. Merriam Ouedraogo and would like you to manage two million dollars that the client left behind.
Of course, this is all a scam and designed to drain your bank account and steal your identity so do not respond to it – it is to make you aware only!
Thanks to Sheenamae who brought this to our attention! Here is what Sheenamae had to say:
hi this is sheenamae from china,and i just recieve a message like the other victim said,and i name is merriam quedraogo.she said b4 she have a sick like a cancer.so i do not believe them bcoz they want to take my money,and they ask my bank account number and my bank account name and the detailed of my bank account,we need to be careful to them. because they want to take our money not to help, and they said they want to donate 2,000,000 USD.
so it impossible to give. but for me i am telling the truth that i want to help people by their help. because i know god is always here to guide me to what i want do and mybe i need to do my mission if the people approach me to help people. i am interesting or willing to help those poor people in my country.. but we need to be carefull. except if you didnt know the people. dont responce them.
AND THIS IS THE LAST REPLY FROM THEM…THAT I RECIEVED..
Permit me to formally introduce myself; I am legal advocate of Mrs. Merriam OUEDRAOGO who passed away apparently Four Weeks ago. Initially when my late Client was receiving medical treatment for her Pancreatic Cancer at the Hospital in custody of her Doctor’s she revealed to me that it is her intention to award a potion of her Wealth under your expertise in China for Charity Ministries. I am contacting you this day regarding to the Fund which my Client has approve to you; I want to seize this opportunity to speak to you regarding the prevailing Matter. I was compelled to speak to you before, to confirm when you will visit this Country to receive the Charity Funds. Permit me to inquire from you about the exact date that would be convenient for you to travel down to this Country for receiving the Two Million US Dollars approved is your names by Mrs. OUEDRAOGO.
Before the death of my late Client she inform me that she rightfully approve a donation Sum of US$ 2,000,000.00 based upon this Information I was suppose to oversee the context but my attention was distracted due to the death of Mrs. OUEDRAOGO in the last Week of May.
I did receive Update from my client regarding your Identity & Personality, your Credential & Residence Address where tender to my Chambers last Month, including Telephone Numbers. In view of the update
I, Barrister Jean Celestin Zouri, receive from my Client last Month I wish to inform that your Credentials were all received and review but I was not having the free chance to handle the context until date, due to untimely death of Merriam OUEDRAOGO. Firstly’ I would like to express my sadness over the death of my Client; it was shocking to see that she finally & painfully pass away after suffering for many Months with the Illness. Because of these circumstances beyond human control I will now visit the Bank remittance Office on Monday to inform the Director regarding the Payment Order of Funds approves to you.
The basic reason why I couldn’t go to the Bank is due to the Death of my Client as she passed away, It is with deep regret and heavy heart I am contacting you this day. There is nothing much to speculate about the death, the sick Woman could not basically survive the attacks any longer and No one is happy about the Death of such a great philanthropist but the fact is she is dead and there is nothing anyone of us can do to bring her back to Life.
Over the past 3 weeks I was totally engaged with legal affairs of my late Client but right now I am less busy with official Duties, therefore I, Barrister Jean Celestin Zouri, would execute the context from henceforth. I wish to inform you that you are required to present the Original copy of your Identification Passport or Identity Card, and inclusive of when you wish to visit this Country for receipt of the Two Million US Dollars.
It is my duty to henceforth inform the Management of the Bank regarding the instruction given by my late Client. Notwithstanding the very sad Event and the Circumstance I would do my possible best to visit the Bank first thing Monday to inform the Director of the Bank regarding the Payment Order approve to you, the Matter would surely be reported to Executive Director of the Bank, but I need to be informed when you are coming to receive your Funds or’ how you precisely want the Funds transmitted from this Country to your Country.
I, Barrister Jean Celestin Zouri, would be waiting for you to indicate when you would visit my Office here in Ouagadougou city; I shall take you to the Bank for withdrawal of Two Million United State Dollar whenever you are able to Travel down to my Country (Burkina Faso). I shall proceed to incorporate the Bank with your Case & submit to the Bank Power of Attorney for the USD 2,000,000.00 regarding the Fund approved as donation for Charity Ministry. Now I request to know when you are visiting this Country to receive your Funds or’ how do you want the Two Million U.S Dollars transmitted to China. I shall contact the Bank with this feedback immediate I know exactly when you shall visit my Country. I advice you to Phone to speak to me immediately after reading this Update;
