Complaint Review: Maureen Jessy - Internet

I got an email in response to an ad on craigslist for dating. The "woman" acts very interested in getting to know me, then asks for my personal email instead of the craigslist email. She then goes on to say what she's interested in, how she was raised, and eventually talks about her parents. the story is about how her mother is all she has left, and how her father died in an explosion in Nigeria, and her mother is demanding over $22 million in compensation for the incident. Here is one of the emails as follows:

Hello 

         Am happy you are interested in learning more about me ,I have never dealt with anyone in the service nor on the Sites but you are so lovely with your caring word to animals as i also do but i have never had a pet before and my favorite food is sushi so i like taco bell also and McDonald as everyone but i usually dont dine in many restaurants as am a great cooker,lol.

 

WELL, I WOULD LIKE TO GET TO KNOW YOU BETTER .. CAN I TRUST U ENOUGH TO GIVE YOU MY PHONE NUMBER. I'LL WAIT A FEW DAYS BEFORE I DO THAT .

 

About my family its a long story to tell and touching because that make me share tears whenever i remembered the past, I will keep this short, I came out from a good combination of two, my Mom is from UK while Dad is a native of Australia,,I am the one and only child of my parent, i will count it ,I have a big Family because i dont know much about my Moms family in the United Kingdom, while my Dads part is very small town, Unfortunately i lost  my father and  a little story of my life i never tell any one about this am writing you and do pls keep this to your self than telling any friend sharing my word about my dad with any one out there or your friends.

 

since my father's death i have started to live my life by myself and not depending on my family , although i still miss my Dad because of the courage and advises he use to give to me about life , but i am glad i am whom i am today. But i  do  have to be thanking  God  all day and night that I and my mother are  happy alive .Mom do stay in UK London and I'm Planing to visit her very soon about my business cos no one else like mother to me,that's my back bone as am working into a new business of buying and selling of Arts work  and sculptures, as for now. Am so close to my God now,that i have a mission, purpose in this life cos a lot of life has been vanished, more than 88 life and some houses and vehicles including my father Auto Trading wear house burnt up in an explosion of  a pipeline as i did mention to you earlier in my previous mail,the explosion occurred due to a reckless construction using a bulldozer in the process of it's construction activities without map.

 

The explosion of  the pipeline caused by  the HI-TECH construction company whose their bulldozer burst the pipeline,Hytec Nigeria limited and the Lagos state Government and the Nigeria  National petroleum corporation and pipelines,marketing company,used the company After the government signed this contract for this part of the construction company,HI-TECH and started work, recklessly without obtaining the necessary map for the specific location of the service pipes network also they were been charged  for  not following the  international best practices on safety standards. The pipeline  passed through the area of my Late father's ware house in ijegun isolo road .The pipes were  buried 0.5 meter deep without any concrete covering,instead of 2.5 meters .I don't really wanna voice out this feeling about my bad news in life but i don't know what really came into me that am behind your feeling of friendship in my heart because have promise to start a new life in state here and not to voice out this to anyone else. All these  mistakes  caused the  fire disaster to which  i lost my father including his auto trading ware house in west Africa,Nigeria.

   

    Well back to dad, the Government realized that this affected my late father to lost  his life with his company,ware house with some people in the community of ijegun.That are involved in the fire disaster of  the pipeline explosion for some compensation.The principle of law states that where there is injury,there must be a remedy. As my father has suffered injury of losing his life of which the Government are entiled to compensate  at the end,so my mother demanded for $22 Million compensation,From the jointly and severally capable parties of lawyers as i heard they latter Finalized at the sum of  $17 Million only  been a compensation from the Government and the next meeting for having the compensation  from the Government over there in West Africa(Nigeria) with the parties of lawyers will be  soon,which i never know as i have never have more details about this since last year until I'll be visiting my mother soon because they are few things  about myself that I want you  to know,as I just discovered some vital documents of fund deposit of a possessed  some amount of Gold  in a treasure box at a data trust security Company in West part of Africa also and the Document of this funds is Save in one of the bank in United Kingdom with my name as the next of kin,am processing to visit UK  to see my family lawyer for more details about this and see my mother about my late father compensation and for my new business.well we have a lot to talk with all that my dad left for me.Life is always nice when you have both your parent beside but my is pretty tough i lost my Dad too soon, but i believe God has a purpose for everything and i know that what will be will surely be. But with time i know am a Gold to be in my family and have a better Golden future.

So come on and share it all with me, as I am not here to talk to you about general things such as partying, the weather, sports, e.t.c.
