ein freundlicher Schmeichler... Das kann ja nett werden. Dummer weise kann er kein Deutsch, aber egal. Hoffentlich wird sein Englisch noch schlechter.

Dear Mr. Peter S.
I will like to thank you once again for your acceptance and readiness to receive this funds into your account in Austria. The fact is that I do not speak German neither do I speak French and I do not see language as a barrier is this type of deal since it is just all about money transfer although you will need to make some telephone call and yet you have to speak English just the little you know and I assure you that Nigeria is a peace loving country as we accomodate strangers here. So, you will not have it tough on phone with anyone that may be involved in this deal.
Dear partner, I will like to advice you to immediately send the required information to us in order that we might start the necessary process of some approval and remittance documents before you are back from Paris. You quite understood the urgency, therefore I will be expecting you to forward the information to me today in order that we may start necessary processing of the transfer since you could acess your email from Paris as well.
During a meeting session with the Director General of the Ministry of Finance, it was ressolved that all outstanding contract payments should be forwarded to the table of the Honorable Minister of Finance for an approval forthwith and your file ought to be forwarded as well in order that we might have an approval for the remittance.
I am waiting for your immediate response and full co-operation.
Yours sincerely,
Engr. Michael Howard

NOTE: Your English is quite ok as I give you kudos for the little you have done.

Sehr freundlich, mein Geschäftspartner, muss ich schon sagen. Ach sowieso Nigeria ist so friedlebend und nett, nur dass es hier lediglich um Geldtransfer gehen soll, ich glaub das kaum. Mein Anliegen ist das am wenigsten. Interessant auch. Diese mail ist jetzt im html-format gekommen. Aber noch über Webmail.
Peter S. wird nicht vor morgen antworten, denn er hat sich immernoch vorzubereiten auf sein wichtiges Geschäftstreffen in Paris...
Er hat recht schnell geantwortet. Ungefähr eine Stunde nach meiner ersten Antwort kam das hier:

Subject: Kindly treat as urgent pls
To: Peter Sackhaar
Dear Sir,
I believe that my explanation and proposal is very comprehensive and articulated for your easy understanding. All I am requesting from you is just to help us accept the sum of $15.5 million USD into your account. The details have earlier been written in my last mail to you. I never made any mistake and I only needed a trustworthy partner for this deal. If you could do this for us, I am prepare to compensate you with 30% of it while 60% will be for us and the remaining 10% shall be used to take care of any expenses that may be incurred in the process.
It is risk free and I hope you can do it for us. We will need to link you up with the bank with necessary documents and all I requested of you is to act as the original contractor. All arrangement has been put in place for a successful transfer of the funds into your account. If this is ok by you, you can contact me and let us start immediately.
Kindly note that this is risk free provided that you could keep it as a confidential matter between us and you.
I shall be expecting your prompt cooperation in this regard.
Yours faithfully,
Engr. Michael Howard

Yeah Baby, dein erster Fehler ist, den Mist überhaupt in die Welt zu schicken! Nun, einen vertrauenswürdiger Partner bin ich alle mal. das sieht man ja auch schon an meiner e-mail Domain. Während Michael jetzt von einem yahoo.co.uk Account schreibt, habe ich mich mein account bei http://www.elvis.com.
Fand ich passend - das ist die offizielle Seite von Elvis Presley und am Start kommt ein kleiner Flashfilm mit dem Song "Hound Dog"
Wir erinnern uns:
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Cryin’ all the time.
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Cryin’ all the time.
Well, you ain’t never caught a rabbit
And you ain’t no friend of mine.
When they said you was high classed,
Well, that was just a lie.
When they said you was high classed,
Well, that was just a lie.

Find ich als Einstieg dieser wunderbaren Geschäftsbeziehung erstmal ganz passend. Peter wird sich später noch als Elvis-Fan outen, zunächst schreibt er aber unter beruflichem Druck nur diese paar Zeilen:

Subject: Yes, I'd like to be in the deal
Dear Michael Howard,
I'm in the deal! I will love to make business with you very much. But my English its not so good. I'm from Austria and therefore I was wondering if you speak German by any chance?
Well, I have to prepare myself for a business meeting in Paris (France) right now. Unfortunately I'm leaving tomorrow for Paris and will stay there until the middle of next week.
After that I will be happy to send you the information you asked for. What do you thing, as your questions seems to be very urgent, are you interested to do business with me?
Best regards - Peter Sackhaar
