오늘..그러니까 2011년 8월 18일이네요. 제 다음메일로 이러한 내용의 메일이 도착했습니다.
해석은 그다지 어렵지 않았는데 내용인 즉슨, 뭐 쿠웨이트의 사람이고, 기독교로 개종했으며, 남편은 병에 걸려죽고, 자신도 곧 불치병에 걸려서 2.5백만 달러를 교회나 다른 사람에게 기증하고 싶다더군요.
흠...내용상 좀 냄새가 났습니다.
저는 인터넷을 찾아봤습니다. 역시나 예상은 빗나가지 않았습니다만,,,이제는 국제적으로 사기메일을 보내는 군요.
미국인들도 많이 당했나봅니다.
편지
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From Sister Rachael Jonadab
BP [38 Rue Des Martyrs Cocody
Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire
DEAREST ONE OF GOD
I am the above named person from Kuwait. I am married to Mr. Ramsey Jonadab, who worked with Kuwait embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2004. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.
Before his death we were both born again Christian. since his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $2. 5 Million (Two Million and Five Hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) in the bank here in Abidjan in a suspense account.
Presently, the fund is still in the bank. Recently, my Doctor told me that i have seriouly sickness which is cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a church or individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein. I want a church that will use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavour that the house of God is maintained.
The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I don’t have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don’t want my husband’s efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don’t want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence i know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the Lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace.
I don’t need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husband’s relatives is around me always I don't want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the bank here in Abidjan. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the Lord is my shepherd. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life.
Contact me through my e-mail address for more information’s, any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another church or individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein.
Hoping to receive your reply
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Sister Rachael Jonadab. |

분석해보면, 저는 "
Rachael Jonadab" 에게 왔습니다만, 다른 사이트를 보면 내용만 똑같고 사람이 다릅니다.
Evangelist Sandra Nura 복음전도사 Sandra Nura라네요. Emilia DanAbidjan 도있네요.
여러분들도 속지 않기바랍니다. 오히려, 아는것이 병이네요. 영어를 몰랐으면 그런것 당할 일도 없을텐데 말이지요.
여튼 영어공부 했습니당 ㅋㅋ
미국인 블로거(사기를 당한듯)가 이것에 관해 이야기 했네요.
Hello, I am Miss Young. I received the following email. It is a socalled "Advance Fee Fraud" letter, where I am promised millions for my assistance. These stories are all lies, and if I respond, sooner or later I will be asked to pay a fee. If I pay, another fee will quickly come up, and it will continue that way until I give up or run out of money. I will never see the millions, because they never existed.
대충해석입니당;;-> 안녕하세요. 저는 앞의 메일을 받았습니다. 그것은 소위 사기메일입니다. 저의 보조를 약속하는 내용의..(맞나?) 이러한 이야기는 다 거짓말입니다. 만약 제가 거기에 답장을 하게되면 조만간 저는 요금을 요구하는 편지를 받게 될것입니다. 만약에 제가 요금을 내면 다른 요금이 또 빠르게 나올겁니다. 그것은 계속되겠지요. 아마 제가 돈이 없어 포기할때까지. 저는 백만달러의 돈을 절대 볼수없을겁니다. 그것은 애초부터 존재하지도 않았을테니까요.
If you received a similar letter, please ignore it. Do not answer it. If you do, you will end up on more of the mailing lists used by the criminals behind this fraud.
-> 만약 당신이 비슷한 편지를 받았다면, 무시하세요. 답장도 하지마세요. 만약그렇게 하면, 당신은 범죄자들이 사용하는 수신자 리스트에서 제거될겁니다.

이 편지에 관한 주의글도 접했습니다.
Have you ever received an email from a stranger in Nigeria(나이지리아로도 오나보군요;;) promising you millions of dollars? - You should just delete it, because it is a pack of lies.
->혹시 나이지리아에서 온 이상한 메일 받으신적없으세요? 그메일은 수백만달러를 약속한다는 내용입니다. 그건 거짓말 뿐이기 때문에 그냥 지워버려야합니다.
However, some people answers them, and they soon find out that they have to pay some fee in order to get the millions. Then comes the second fee, and the third fee, etc etc. No one has ever received the millions, but many have lost a lot of money, and some have even got killed.(끔찍합니다.)
->그러나 어떤 사람들은 답장할 수도 있습니다. 그러면 그들은 돈을 받기위해서 수수료같은 것을 내야합니다. 그러면 2번째 수수료, 세번째 수수료 계속해서 오게될 겁니다. 어떤 사람도 수백만달러를 받은 경우는 없습니다. 그러나 많은 사람들은 돈을 잃고 심지어는 살인을 당하기도 합니다.
This so called "Advance Fee Fraud" has become an industry in Nigeria, and the surrounding countries. Another common name is "419 fraud" after Section 419 of the Nigerian Penal code, the section that specifically prohibits this type of crime.
그것들은 소위 "Advance Fee Fraud"라고 불리고, 하나의 사업이 되었습니다. 나이지리아와 주변국가에서. 다르게는 흔하게 419사기?? 특히 종류의 범죄는 금하고있다(??)
The fraud is difficult to stop, but we can have some fun, and have the criminals use their time in vain. That is called scambaiting.
이런 사기를 멈추기는 힘듭니다. 그러나 우리는 즐길수있어요. 그리고 범죄자가 쓸데없이 그들의 시간을 헛되게 만들수도 있죠. 이런것을 scambaiting. (뭐 낚시질 같은데 자세한말은 모르겠습니다.)
If you are new to this sport, I will recommend you to look at the links-page.
모두들 조심하세요!
