What I have learned is that the late president Kennedy was murdered as an act of revenge by a professional killer. The killer was hired by the jealous wealthy husband of one of Kennedy’s many women on the side. The hit man was paid $30 Million to kill the President.

In 1971 my father was approached privately by an elderly man (known as Samuel) who gave him a key to a box held in a storage company in Dallas, Texas stating that there was $26 Million dollars in cash waiting for the owner of the key.

Samuel man told my father that the real hit man, Bob Dunnitt, had spent about $4 Million dollars of the money and then found religion and was repentant for his actions. Bob placed the money in a Dallas storage company and asked Samuel to give it to Jackie Kennedy Onassis as an act of genuine repentance. As you may know, Jackie passed away some time ago.

Samuel mentioned that he was the only one who knew of the money because Bob was killed in a car accident soon after he had asked Samuel to take care of the money. Plus Samuel stated that he had only months to live, without heirs. He knew of my father’s reputation and Kennedy connection and he wanted the key to be placed in the hands of a reputable man.

In August of 2001 I was rummaging about in a box in our attic and found an old book with the key inside and a detailed letter attached. Written in my deceased father's hand, the letter states that my father did nothing with the key because he was concerned about the FBI surveillance on all his high-level activities. My father had top-secret clearance and was routinely checked, as was every one else with that clearance. Suspicious-looking activity of any type would have jeopardized his stellar career of public service.

As his only child, I am the rightful heir to the $26 Million dollars. And I have seen the money with my very own eyes. I learned about this money just before the September 11th terrorist attacks last year. With all the heightened security issues, I think that it would be best to get the money out of the country, because how can I explain this incredible story? Who would believe me? The tax liabilities alone would be overwhelming.

That is why I am coming to you. I want to use this money for humanitarian purposes. My conscience will not permit me to use this money for myself. As I have thought about this, I can see no other option but to invest this money in the continent of Africa.

I must be careful to select a person of your reported caliber, who will help. You must possess pure motivation before Almighty God, or we cannot go forward together with this transaction.

Before I can outline further what this operation requires, I would ask you first, whether you would wish to proceed in assisting me. I need an initial idea from you as to how you would invest this money for humanitarian purposes. It is essential that you keep this matter highly confidential. Extended family members are close friends of both the United States President and the upper echelons of Aristocracy. It would be highly embarrassing if details of this proposal were leaked to the United States Press. I can also say that you will be handsomely recompensed for your assistance, for which I propose an amount in the region of 20%.

All logistics are in place and all modalities worked out for the smooth actualization of this transaction within ten to fourteen working days of commencement. If you are interested and you wish to be my partner in this beneficial transaction it is imperative you furnish me with the following information: your personal telephone and fax numbers, the name of Company you would want to use as the benefactor of this funds, also I need your idea as to how you would invest this money for humanitarian purposes.

The above information will enable me start the process in favor of your company or name and it is important to state here that this transaction is entirely based on trust and that it is 100% risk free.

Please, by reply, signal whether you are interested in having involvement with this matter. I will of course furnish you with more information in how we are to proceed. I have been reliably informed, that you are a most decent person and possess the integrity, formidable intellect and confidence required to assist with this delicate and important operation.

Also, please reply initially by email. As I feel more comfortable with you, I will then give you more specific contact information. I do hope to hear from you shortly.

May God bless you,
Harvey Wankel, Jr.

Abbass Dubai

He then responded with an email stating, "Please Do Not Contact Me Again"...

We responded with...
Dear Abbass:

I am perplexed by this email in which you state that you do not want to be contacted again. Why is this? Are you not prepared to help with this large amount of money? Are you afraid to help with this particular project? Do you not have the kind of government contacts to make this happen?

It was told me that you are able to enter into this business transaction. Perhaps I have been mistaken.

Warm regards,
Harvey Wankel

No further response from Abbass...

*******************************************************************

Dear sir,

I am sorry to reply you mail this late. I went on a business and investment trip. I have heard what you said and I am very sorry to hear your story. Truelly speaking I had the same experience last year but now the whole issue is settled.

If you really need my help I have no other alternative but to introduce you to someone who helped me save the money during my own time but I must be frank, it will cost you some money.

So please get in touch immediately so that I can link you up at once because I will be leaving for South Korea for business purposes to make sure I utilize my money.

Expecting your response. Take care and with prayers all will be well.

Kind regards from a friend,

Alexander Nyerere

Dear Sir
I am interested in your proposal for business. Let me have the details.

Fred Brume

omo Niger, we are together.

*****************************************************************

Dear Harvey,

My name is Dennis Gibson Mitchell. I am a United States citizen USA. I am an Engineer, preferably in human resources selection, Development of Mining Industries, Environmental Specialist and laying of Submarine Pipelines & Shell Shaking.

My Dad and Mom live in the xxxxxx St., xxxxx N Y xxxxx USA, but I live in the xxxx St., Ste xxxx Rosslyn, VA xxxxx USA. My personal office is in the xxxx Street. My Phone is 703-xxx-xxxx (Now program on Voice/Fax because I am out of the Country for now). My Dad has his Office/Company in Kansas City, that is xxxxxx xxxxxx CO., xxxx xxxxxxStreet, Kansas City, Missouri 64110 USA, P.O.Box xxxx. My Dad is the Chairman/CEO the Company that exports Olive Oil, Welding Electrodes, Sea Foods, Latex Gloves, Sugar, and Corn.

Right now I am in Nigeria West African Country since June 1998. I am executing some contracts with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). The Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria owns this Corporation (NNPC). I am working with this Corporation since June 1998(Maintenance of the Oil Facilities to conform to the international standard and Replacing of the aged, rusty and worn out Oil Pipelines in the Niger Delta Oil Producing Area here in Nigeria as a way of curbing incessant cases of Pipelines leakage and vandalization).

Meanwhile, this is to acknowledge the receipt of your mail to me dated Sat. 12 January 2002, posted by 21:12:26-0500. Really your mail came as a surprise to me but your good explanation regarding been gotten my good recommendation from a reputable persons in the United States that recommended me as a good business tycoon and trustworthiness fellow has completely convinced me because I am a well know hard working Engineer and business dealer in the USA chamber of commerce. I am giving you the assurance that I will maintain al your information very confidential for the conscience nurtured by trust. I really know that this is a confidential deal.

But in this regards, as a fellow American citizen, I do and truly believe and remember that the President was assassinated on that November 1963 although I was still under age then but I can remember the even at the Texas. But I must say, however that I am not convinced that your offer is a true one, since I have received request like this in the past that was last year from some unknown Guys from Madrid Spain seeking for my assistance in transferring a looted money of 86,000,000$ directly into my account in the New Jersey branch. This event happened on the February 2001. I gave to them all they requested from me, my bank account of the New Jersey Branch bank, ABA #, Bank name and bank address. Along the line, I still spent the total sum of 2,645,000$ ( two million, six hundred and forty five thousand United states dollars.) and just to see that the funds get to my account safely and smoothly. Yet till now I have not even received a cent. Of course, when I indicated to these Guys that I will not make any payment up-front again for any reason again, they no longer corresponded again.

So if you truly know that your own offer is a true one, then this is my option and offer to you. i. I will accept into my account the money of the 26,000,000$. Only into my account in the Australia. I cant accept into my account here in Nigeria because the government of Nigeria may suspect that the money is looted from their own account as it has been every day by day process in the expense of Nigeria government seeing Government of Nigeria Top Directors exporting huge money into accounts therefore there is a code of conduct bureau that will not allow me to accept into my account here in Nigeria. I will only accept into my account in the Australia. I will not accept into my account in the United States to prevent the FBI Surveillance. If not I have a lot of accounts in United States, even in the Texas too. That is xxxxx national bank Texas and a lot of them. ii. Here is the account details: 
BANK: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx   xxxxxxxxxxxx BANK
ADDRESS: 7 xxxxxxxxxx STREET xxxxxxxx, xxxxxxxxxxx, AUSTRALIA xxxx
SWIFT CODE: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ACCOUNT #: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ACCOUNT NAME: DENNIS GIBSON MITCHELL

I need more explanation. Give me your phone and fax # for discussions. I am waiting for your response.

Regards,
Dennis G. Mitchell.

------- WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THESE SCAM ARTISTS? -------

Not much. We don't want to sound fatalistic, but the reality is that the scam artists hide behind untraceable email addresses, sending their scam letters from pay-by-the-hour Internet Cafes. The governments of Africa are generally in a survival mode, with little interest in dealing with some Internet scam artist in a local village. There are always bigger fish to fry. 

Plus we have actually talked with West African government and business officials about their perception of these 419 scams. They have expressed amazement that anyone could be fooled by the  empty promises contained in emails from a stranger in Africa. In their eyes, the culpability goes both ways. "Who could be such a fool to give money to someone they have never met?" This is a valid question for all of us to ponder...

What we have done at The Freeman Institute is to provide a free service to warn individuals who may be flirting with the idea of great wealth coming their way. Our motto is: Run, don't walk, away from these scams and then do what you can to warn people about this pervasive problem. Feel free to provide a link to www.freemaninstitute.com/419.htm -- so that more people can see the truth about these 419 scams.
