More Interesting/Worrying Buy Out Stuff in the Independent

That does not read well - not very well at all. A Nigerian and a Russian - f*cking great.

Though who knows they might be sound. Would like to know what companies they own or run.

as I mentioned on NA the nigerian bid is is probably the fella off fonejacker "hello sir I am calling from your bank , can you give me your bank account number and you sort code please".

Lets not panic before we have any real information. Lets face it. If Charlton changes hands it is going to be very likely a foreign consortium. Not all Nigerians and Russians are crooks. Who do we think are going to buy us ? A consortium fronted by Mary Poppins perhaps.

If the nigerian takes over the new kit has to be either a green silk shirt with yellow and blck pasily patterns or a bright orange top...............

You're absolutely right of course - it's just the rich ones that are crooks!

Anyone else remember the last time we had Nigerian involvement at board level? and look where that led...bankruptcy and exile.

And I'm the king of the swingers

CAFC Club Bulletin August 18 2008

Dear Friend,

I am your new owner. I sincerely write to seek your co-operation and trust
to enable my colleagues and I carry out an urgent
business opportunity in my department. I work with the
Union Bank of Nigeria PLC, currently I am the senior
manager of bills and exchange at the foreign
remittance department of my bank. I have an urgent and confidential
business proposal for you. On June 6, 2008, an Australian oil
consultant/contractor with via National Petroleum cooperation
(NNPC) Mr. Ali B. Ashraf
made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve calenderer
month valued at US$51,000,000.00(fifty _one Million US Dollars) in my
branch. On maturity, I sent a routine notification tohis forwarded
address but got no reply after months we send a reminder and finally we
discovered from his contract employee (Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation)
that MR. Ali B. Ashrafdied from an automobile accident. On further
investigation, it was clear that he died without making a WILL.
All attempts by the Australian to trace his next of kin were fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Ali B. Ashraf did
not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents
including his deposit document in my bank. The total sum
US$51,000,000.00 is still in my bank as dormant acct.
No one will ever come forward to claim it.

According to Nigerian banking law, after five years, the money
will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government. If the account
owner is certified death and nobody comes forward to claim it. This is the
situation , and my proposal is that I am looking for aforeigner who will stand
in as the beneficiary/next of kin. This is simple. All you have to do is to
immediately send me the details of a bank account anywhere in the
world for me to arrange the proper money transfer document. The money will then
be transferred into the account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for
me 30% for you while the remaining 10% will be set aside for expenses
incurred with here and there. There is no risk involved. I am using my position
and connection in the bank here to do all the document work for the
transaction. We shall employ the services of an attorney to draft the
will and obtain all necessary documents and letter of administration in
yourfavor for the transfer. This transaction is risk free guaranteed. If
you are interested, , I will send to you the text of the application
that you will send to the Union Bank authority for an approval to
submit your claims.

Send your reply through mydirect and private email
address ( director@cafc.co.uk ) indicate your direct
Fax and telephone numbers for effective communication
that this transaction needs. Do not reply through the
union bank email address because it belongs to the
senior staffs for public use.

Please note that you are not to appear in person, as
every thing regarding this project will be strictly on
documentations and every banking documents needed for
this transaction will be taken care of by my self.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

I will appreciate your urgent response in this regard. Thanks for your
anticipated cooperation.You can as well reach me on director@cafc.co.uk

Yours faithfully,
Kirk Okotcha.

Actually most of the Nigerian Minister e-mails come from Russian servers.

So maybe the Nigerian offer is a stalking horse for the Russian consortium, which will be a front for an American porn website.
