Still another orphan in Ghana is trying to get Captain Mal to take possession of his inheritance; the only unusual aspect is that he claims to be Ghanaian.
The scammer’s emails are date-stamped; my comments are in bold.
21 March 2022
Sir/Ma this is Charles Koffi i wanted to discuss about my inheritance with you, my late dad who worked with Local Community Gold and diamond milling in Ashanti (Ghana) for over 48 years before he passed away on Coronavirus disease early last year, i have summoned courage to contact you regarding some large amount of Gold, Diamonds and cash in various currencies i discovered about this few months ago when the Security company where the community secures their gold and other valuable items, the security unit called, to ask of my dad that he's cell phone has been off and she's not responding to any message, before i told them that he has passed always over a year ago, after their condoles, few days later they called me again to inform me about large amount of Gold, Diamonds and cash in various currencies that my dad have in their position, i have made the necessary inquiries on getting all my inheritance but the security company still insisted that my dad said i have to come over with a foreign beneficiary or investor before they pressures item will be in my position
With all necessary steps I have taken, they said you're a good man and the only one who can help me in this situation,I believe it is the wish of God for me to come across you now. What God Cannot Do does not exist, I was pushed to contact you and see how best we can assist each other. The security company has assured me that they can move all my inheritance to any provided address outside our nation
Please, what do you think ??
Can You do this for me ??
I would love to know your business ideas, Do you have any investment plans?? What is your percentage in investment, or in such a business ??
Best Regards
Charles Koffi
Let’s start with a question the scammer won’t be expecting.
Mr Koffi
Here's a question for you.
You wrote, "they said you're a good man and the only one who can help me in this situation" - who are "they"?

I think the scammer mixed up his scripts a little (text in red)

Best Regards
Charles Koffi
Mr Koffi
The camp control officer told you about me? That's as may be, but I have to tell you this; I don't think God made our paths cross. I have no religion and no belief in divine providence. Things happen because they happen.
You posed some questions. I'll answer as best as I can.
Can You do this for me ??
I don't know.
I would love to know your business ideas,
I don't have any
Do you have any investment plans??
No
What is your percentage in investment, or in such a business ??
I don't understand the question.

Hello Sir Malcolm Reynolds, Good Evening
Thanks for your response, Yes we all have our believe but i just want to meet someone honest, someone who knows what is right and how to do it,
Sir Malcolm Reynolds the assistance I request from. you is a very peaceful assistance, 85 kg of Gold bars and 1.3 million dollars in cash with the security company, i will need your assistance to move this out of my country here, but you will need to come over, because if i want to change the names on it to your name, For the security company to ship it to you, it will cost a lot of funds,
What i mean by the below question is how many percentage will i give you for your assistance
What is your percentage in investment, or in such a business
Best Regards
Charles Koffi
Mr Koffi
Just hold it there buddy! What's this about "change the names on it to your name"? I don't get it.

Sir Malcolm Reynolds the assistance I request from. you is a very peaceful assistance, the Gold Bars and the large amount with the security company is available for investment and i can't invest it in my country here because of the corrupt government, so i want to move it out my country and invest it in your country under your name and i will be giving you 30% of the total funds for your assistance
28 March
Sir Malcolm Reynolds are you there?
Mr Koffi
This is not live chat. Bear that in mind.
You say I need to come to Ghana. Why?
Malcolm Reynolds
29 March
Malcolm Reynolds It will be easier for us to get everything done if you're here in person, because i will really love to take you to the company and for you to see everything yourself, Please if you will be interested in helping me, i will allow you to contact the company and request for the gold bars and the funds to be handed over to you and from there we can proceed
What do you think
Best Regards
Charles Koffi
Mr Koffi
Coming to Ghana ain't quite as easy as you seem to think. There's the matter of vaccinations and visas, for one thing. And for another, my livelihood was ruined by the pandemic; I've barely started to get back on my feet after close to two years of lockdown and closed borders. Plus, I'm in Australia, which ain't well placed for a casual flight there.
So what I need from you is an explanation of what would need to be done, and how. In my former career as a United States Marine, planning was second nature, and planning meant getting all the information needed to judge the right course of action.
Ball's in your court, mister. You need to provide.
Regards
Malcolm Reynolds
30 March
Hello sir Malcolm Reynolds I really want to know your plans, Are you coming or you want to inform the company to make plans to ship the Gold and the funds??
Secondly, they can't recognise your opinion now until I present them with your full details as my partner and beneficiary, before they can give me their rules and regulations of the company and the procedures to ship it to the address you will provide
What do you think
Regards
Charles Koffi
Mr Koffi
I've tried to call you, but every time your phone was switched off. Why give a phone number and then make it impossible to call you?

It's up to you now. Make it happen.
