Below is information about the Hajia Turai Yar’Adua scam and what to expect. I received this email today which claims to be from the wife of a late Nigerian president who packed away 45 million dollars and is willing to give you 40% if you help her get it.
Of course, it’s all a big scam, so don’t fall for this! The email is below:

Hello Dear,
I am Hajia Turai Yar’Adua, the Wife of the Late President of Nigeria Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. I want you to please help me and invest the sum of ($45 Million USD) which my Husband deposited in a security firm in Oversea before he died recently. Note, the funds where deposited as security bonds worth ($45 Million USD) before he went to a hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in November 2009.
I will send to you all the necessary documents that will mandate you to claim the security deposit bonds, as the sole beneficiary of the security deposit bonds. Please if you are willing to assist me, kindly email me back so that we will proceed immediately. After all is been done, you will take 35% out from the total sum while 5% is been set aside for any expense.
I believe you must have heard about my Husband’s death and this will not come to you as a surprise but please try and understand exactly what I am talking here. I look forward for your kind update. Please email me your willing to proceed. For security reasons contact me through my E-mail: (hajiatu@hotmail.com)
Healthy regards,

It seems that this \woman\ is still trying to do business even from her grave. I just received an email this afternoon. Content is below. I sent a response and corrected all of the spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors. It would seem if these people were actually \trying\ to get $$ from us they would learn how to write a proper letter and not handle it like they are scammers…which they are!!
P.S. ~ It’s good to know we can still do email after we are in our graves.

support of her pet project for cancer eradication but was not used because of her husbands
illhealth and subsequent death hence we want to send this fund to you for safekeeping to deter
the present Government from collecting it from us. Please you don’t have to worry about anything.

My name is Hajia Turai Yaradua the widow of the late Nigerian president who died after undergoing treatment in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia for inflammation around his heart after suffering from chest pains
I am presently in Katsina state northern part of nigeria, because we were chased out of the presidential villa after his death,my late husband worked to promote peace and stability in Africa and world over through his support of Nigerian peacekeeping efforts as well as his strong criticism of undemocratic actions in the region. He was committed to creating lasting peace and prosperity within Nigeria’s own borders for further clarification you can go through this link below

Therefore I have willed and given out most of our property and assets to our immediate and extended family.I have decided to give also to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in Haiti and MALAYSIA.
However, the last of the money which no one knows is the sum of $38.63Million usd, which i immediately contacted our family attorney to move out of the country to a secured security company abroad pending when i get a reliable and god fearing person that will assist me in receiving it and after that me and my children will come over to meet and settle down there and start a new life in your country, it might intrest you to know that i have fastest and prayed towards this issue before going to your country’s chambers of commerce to get your details.

Please endeavour to contact me as soon as you receive this letter So that i can tell you more about myself , I look forward to hearing from you.
God Bless You.

Hajia Turai Yaradua
I am afraid for you Musa, your way of thinking is abnormal and you are confused. Such scams as the Hajia Turai Yar’Adua do not target just rich men, they target everyone such as the truly kind person living in poverty trying to move up, this only keeps them down. You should see a doctor again.
But if u ask an average man to help a poor person he will feel too big to act such so why not we allow them to elevate poverty by falling as victims. …
I received this email today…..m in USA…..yeah it seems like they are sending it everywhere…..
I think I actually got this one myself, once, when I lived in England. They must have sent it everywhere.
