I need your help .Really I beg you to help me to suceed in my life .To tell you the truth,people think that I am terrorist with my name ''EL HADJI'' and they refuse to pay for my school as I am muslim.Others think that I am a scammer and that I try to suck money from them as I am an African and my home country is Senegal (West Africa) .''GO TO WORK TO EARN MONEY'' is a usual word I hear.

This is below my full name and address .You can deposit it at the police station before you bring me any kind of assistance, It is a suggestion and it is more secured I guess... FULL NAME: El Hadji Dembo Drame
ADDRESS: Keury Kao Rufisque
BP 334 SENEGAL (West/Africa)

all my hope is in you to succeed and to reach my aim of studying .Also you may recruit me after my graduation

I am looking forward to hearing from you soon with a positive reply !

Sincerly,
El HADJI DEMBO DRAME

(from Senegal)

Ps : I have no cell phone that is why i cannot give you a number where you can reach me

This sounds like one of those 416 / 916 or what ever the number is scams. Always originates from somewhere in Africa and asking for money for a "sure thing" or to help some poor lost soul. I remember finding a web site dedicated to messing with these people. The folks who ran the site would spend hours each day just messing with them. Some of the people even made money off the scamers. Very funny stuff. If anyone knows the name given to the scam, you can google it and find the site. Very entertaining reading.

Edit.
Just found it on google. They are called 419 scams. Very funny reading.

My message is not about a scam, i will try to send a message to you which is not right. Infact to find a scholarship application is not easy, that is the reason post this message to airline forum and i think i will meet a sponsor

Once again, contact the twu and ask them for assistance with your tuition. They will also help organize your particular cell in Africa. Good Luck

Sir,

I know about scammers, they destroy the life of people. They are criminals also. I am not ready to be a scammer. If i post this message, it is because i am in the need of a sponsorship to pay for my education the Florida Institute of Technology. Sir, please understand that education is very important.

Please send me the e-mail address and mailing address of TWU so that i may apply for a scholarship.

I wish to start my classes on August 2012, Fall semester.

El Hadji Démbo Dramé
