STOP WORSHIPPING TWIGS

From a Kindly Contributor in Brazil, "Manoel Arpoador".

Dramatis personae (in order of appearance):

ZULU DURU - The Lad from Ivory Coast, currently living in a refugee camp in Senegal and trying to convince me his late father left U$ 12.5 million in a bank. Will I help him retrieve it?
MANOEL ARPOADOR - That’s me, Secretary to the head of the recently formed International Christian Alliance of Africa (ICAA). I will not only help, but bring Zulu and his sick sister to Portugal as immigrants.
LILIAN HABIB & HOWARD SOW - COMMERCIAL BANK OF SENEGAL – These guys want my account number, but won’t give me theirs – even when I say I want to SEND Zulu the money to pay for an airplane ticket! They are a bank, but they prefer to use Western Union.
MALICK DIOP – He is the barrister who wants $ 7,500.00 to produce the documents to be sent to the bank, so I can have the U$ 12.5 million.

The plot:
I tell Zulu I don’t want his money; I will send him U$ 2.143,56 to go from Dakar to Luanda, Angola, and then fly to Lisbon. Only then I will transfer the goodies to the ICAA. I also tell him that the President of Portugal himself, along with other VIPs, will help him along. And then I ask for a copy of his ID... and he sends it! Along with his sister’s... they don’t even take the time to properly sign the fake documents :-)

  Dear Mr. Zulu:

I am Manoel Arpoador, and the head of the recently formed International Christian Alliance of Africa forwarded your message to me. I was amazed to hear such a touching and sad story. Surely it was Jesus himself who put you in contact with us. As Mr. Kleber is leaving tomorrow on a evangelyzing mission, to Angola and Guine-Bissau, he asked me, as his secretary, to take charge of all matters concerning financial arrangements. I am sure I can work out the details in order to help you invest your inheritance overseas. Our Alliance could surely benefit from any amount you would find honourable to donate, but this is strictly a matter of your conscience. As Saint Peter said, "It is good to receive, but it is Holy to give".

Yours in Jesus,

Manoel Arpoador

  Ah, Zulu, my son! I read your message aloud to our congregation and some of the people wept openly at the mention of the horrors of the refugee camp where your family is being kept. In fact, we happen to have in our board (in a honorary position) Mr. Manuel Alegre, a Portuguese poet and politician who happens to know very well the situation in Africa. As you know, our country, Portugal, had colonies there: Angola, Mozambique, GuineBissau... sad times.  

But let me change the subject with good news: we can arrange for your immigration to Portugal! That's true! Mr. Alegre can provide you, your sister and your mother with a temporary 90-day visa, which can be renewed for two years. You only have to send us a scanned copy of your passport, where your name and photo can be clearly viewed. Should you like to travel with your sister and mother, send me their passport copies too. (Are they able to travel or should they wait for your arrival in Lisbon? You decide).

Send it to this e-mail, and I will arrange for our office in Luanda to provide the airplane ticket from TAP (Portuguese Airlines) and send it to you, so you can fly (via Luanda, of course) to Lisbon. Your passport number and photo are very important, as the only way to identify you amidst tens of thousands of crawling, rag-clothed, vermin-infested, fly-covered and wailing, desperate  refugees. But don't despair: Jesus will help! Don't forget to provide us with your address, or a way to make the airplane ticket reach your hands.  

I understand you will be able to refund our Mission for the expenses, as you will be in a position to claim the fortune your father left, after arriving in Lisbon. Please be aware that you will be invited to tell your story at our "Grande Festa Evangélica", a revival meeting we organize yearly to hear the testimonies of Our Lord Jesus in action, rescuing people from poverty and starvation.  

I have sent Mr. Joaquim Pentelhino, our Finance Director, the details regarding the Commercial Bank of Senegal information. He will soon get in touch with Mr. Howard Sow. Meanwhile, he is preparing the purchase and booking of your tickets, and making hotel reservations in Lisbon. I asked for a three-star Hotel, called "Borges", at Rua Garrett, which is close to our headquarters at the Loreto Church. It has running water! And beds! And walls! Ah, Zulu, my son, what a change from the refugee camp! Tell your family help is on the way!  

Yours in Jesus, and hoping to seeing you soon in the blessed land of Portugal,  

Manoel Arpoador

  Dear Zulu, my son:  

I am so sorry to hear that your sister is still ill. May God bless her with health and a speedy transfer out of the refugee camp, with all those lizards, flies, cockroaches and maggots. But I am sure she will be allright as soon as she reaches a safe, clean town. I am happy to know you have your ID CARD, you can scan it and send it to this e-mail.   

DO IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! Only then the Mission can help you. We contacted TAP and told them we will send you the money for the purchase of the ticket (Luanda - Lisbon). You can choose the date, depending on your capability of leaving the refugee camp and going to Luanda. We will be transferring also U$ 1.000, so you can travel to Angola. The total will be U$ 2.143,56.   

Mr. Manuel Alegre says your ID Card is enough to gain entrance to Portugal, provided we have the date, time and flight of arrival, and a copy of your ID card. This is essential, otherwise you can be deported! Thousands of illegal immigrants arrive every year at Lisbon's airport, and face prison and deportation.   

I am sending a copy of this message to Dr Howard Sow, and I want to know if we can transfer the U$ 2.143,56 to him, so he can give it to you. I understand you prefer to bring your sister afterwards, when she recovers a little bit.    

We can then work in the details of your investment. There are good opportunities in the educational field in Portugal, and maybe you could sponsor a school for ex-prostitutes that we maintain, to help these poor souls become nuns.  

  Hope, courage, Zulu! We await anxiously your answer, and news from your family.   

Yours with Jesus,   

M. Arpoador

  Zulu, my son, how good to know your sister is getting better. Did you tell her she will be starting a new life in Europe? Tell me her name, so I can include her in our prayers. God will help her recovery. Didn't Jesus help Lazarus? Well, I think her case is not so difficult, but who knows what terrible infections lurk in the desolate alleys of a refugee camp... come to think of it, upon your arrival maybe a short quarantine will be mandatory. But let us deal with it later.   

I have contacted CBS and asked for the information which is necessary for us to transfer the funds that will allow you to reach our country. We are all very eager to see you in good health, amongst us. This will be proof that in this terrible times we're living, there is still place for kindness, compassion, trust and hope. I am awaiting your documentation, please read very carefully the message I have sent to Ms. Lilian Habib, Mr. Malick Diop and Dr. Howard Sow.   

And now I end with a little pray: "Shall your days of waiting be as short as winter in the Dead Sea".

  Dear Lilian:

  I am sending a copy of this message to Mr. Malick Diop and Dr. Howard Sow, concerning the transfer of the Duru mamily funds. However, there are two things I don't understand:  

- whose "death certificate" are you asking me to provide? I don't think this is necessary for any of the arrangements. This is very weird. Maybe the message you sent me was intended to be sent to some relative of another recently deceased refugee who perished among flies, maggots, lizards and scorpions in a rat-infested, jackal-surrounded, vulture-haunted hole in the middle of the desert. But I digress.  

- what was arranged with Mr Zulu Duru was the transfer of U$ 2,143.56 from the International Christian Alliance of Africa to an account in your bank, provided you guarantee that the money can be delivered personally to him, so he can travel to Luanda and then fly to Lisbon, where he is to receive a temporary political refugee Visa.  

Please understand that I am forced by the Alliance internal policy to conduct all our contacts via e-mail, so this is the reason I am not calling you. Also understand that you can wait till Mr Duru is safe in Portugal before you proceed with the transfer of his funds. We would prefer to open an account for him in our bank (BCP-Millenium, Chiado Branch) but his refugee condition would be revoked if the government discovered that he possesses so much money. So we will have to proceed afterwards with the transfer to our account.  

In order to allow us to transfer the U$ 2,143.56, please provide us with all the details concerning the account of Mr. Howard Sow. We will also need a scanned image of his ID Card or passport, where his photo and ID number can be clearly viewed. This is due to the accounting practices adopted in the European Union following the attacks of September 11, 2001. I also asked the same documents from Mr. Zulu, and I printed his e-mail authorizing Mr. Sow to receive his airplane tickets money. Due to the sad and extreme conditions of his present situation, this will serve, in our files, as proof of his will to receive the money via Dr. Sow.

  I also want to clarify that U$ 1,000 should be used to travel from Dakar to Luanda, and the rest (U$ 1,143.56) will pay for a TAP (Portuguese Airlines) airplane ticket to Lisbon. Please remind Mr. Duru that he has to present his ID card to TAP in order to purchase the ticket, and to inform the attendant he is travelling on a special arrangement involving the International Christian Alliance of Africa refugee program. This will circunvent the need of a passport, as his name has been sent to the TAP headquarters by Mr. Manuel Alegre.  

HE MUSTN'T FORGET to tell us of his date, time and flight of arrival in Lisbon, so we can be waiting for him at the airport and help him during is interview with the immigration officers. THIS IS ESSENTIAL to avoid deportation!

  Yours in Jesus, and waiting for the information requested,

I took note of your preferences concerning the transfer of the U$ 2,143.56 via Western Union, which we find weird, considering you work in a bank that is wiiling to transfer U$ 12,500,00.00 to a perfect stranger, living in Europe, not the next-of-kin of the deceased and not a relative either. I only made contact with you following the express recomendation of Mr. Duru, who told us you were to be trusted with his funds, and now I learn you will not help him with the airplane tickets which could make him and his poor sister escape from the shabbyness and squalor of the refugee camp! I really don't understand... Anyway, suit yourself; we will try to send the money directly to Mr. Duru.

  Dear Zulu and Tina, my children:  

Bless God! I have already received the documents! I showed it around and everybody liked your faces, instantly. You seem so honest, so reliable! They asked me why your signatures are simply "Tina" and "Zulu", and I told them that in Africa people are not as worried as we are with genealogy or family names. Or maybe the manufacturing of the documents was made in a hurry, before the advance of the rebel troops, to escape the looting, raping and murdering frenzy of the machete-hurling, blood-hungry marauding teenage soldiers that have turned your country into a chaotic living hell.  

As I explained before to Mr. Diop and to Mr. Sow, we would rather proceed with the transfer of your father's funds to Portugal AFTER you arrive safely in Lisbon, hopefully - God helping us - before the end of this month. Then you can contact CBS and pay the necessary taxes and bribes to Mr. Diop (he asked for $ 7,500.00 euros, which I personally find outrageous, because with half this ammount you could buy a whole province in Zaire); afterwards, you can order the deposit of the U$ 12,500,000.00 into our account. Do you mind if we set aside one percent - U$ 125,000 - as a donation to our Alliance? A small price to pay to flee from the refugee camp, don't you think so? And a big help to our effort to transform ex-prostitutes into nuns.  

We had already prepared the transfer of the funds to CBS - the U$ 2,143.56 you will need to travel to Angola and catch the TAP flight to Lisbon - but Mr. Sow refused to provide a bank account, so we will have to ask Western Union to do it. You told us we could send him the money, but he said "NO" - take a look at what he said: "I AM UNABLE TO SENT YOU MY PRIVATE BANK ACCOUNT AND PASSPORT COPY / ID CARD  BECAUSE THE NATURE OF MY JOB CONTRACT WITH THE (CBS) BANK THOSE NOT PERMIT MY PERSONAL CONTACTS TO BE INCLUDED ON THE BANK SIDE EITHER OR BY ASSISTANCE".  

This is unheard of! The board of directors found it suspicious, because in Portugal money transfers to Africa using Western Union are usually preferred by shady, greasy, unshaven, sunglassed, flashy characters of the drug-traficking, prostitute-smuggling underworld. They wear long raincoats, gold earrings, grunt constantly and are very rude. Do you really trust Howard Sow? I happened to do a Google search on his bank and name and could not find any references. Why don't CBS have a domain name registered in Senegal? Is it really a bank or a ramshackle hut with ceiling ventilators, a derelict wooden table and a telephone salvaged from a third rate french-colonial drunk diplomat office? However, considering you are languishing in a refugee camp while your sister Tina rots in a canvas bed, you don't have many choices. That is what I told the directors, and they agreed to wire the money.

  So Zulu, my son, please send me details for the wire transfer - we are not familiar with the proceedings of Western Union. Do we have to take the money there, or can we write a check? Don't forget to write when your money arrives, and remember to print the document I am attaching, to be presented to TAP airlines in Luanda. It is a letter of invitation, signed personaly by Mr. Jorge Sampaio, President of the Portuguese Republic. You will need your ID card, too.

  Yours in Jesus and anxiously awaiting your arrival,

 Dear Scamorama:

Below is the end of my conversation with Mugu Mr. Zulu Duru, and I thought it would be interesting to enclose the TAP airlines ticket I sent him, so he could fly from Dakar to Lisbon and meet me. A much better forgery than the ones he sent me... I also manufactured a personal invitation from Portugal's President, so he could skip Immigration.

I wondered what would happen when he arrived at TAP's Dakar offices with this printout, looking for Ms. Maria Bucetagrande (BigCunt) or Mr. Joaquim Paupequeno (SmallPenis) to get his boarding pass. I thought he'd go there - because I hinted he could get a refund on the ticket I (allegedly) purchased. But he apparently made some enquiries...

I also hope your readers have as much fun as I had. I think I could go on and on insulting Zulu Duru, while he waited for the 500 euros, but I'd rather prepare for the next Mugu.

Keep up the good work.

P.S. - S0U#8URR0, Zulu's TAP reservation code, means "I'm an Idiot" in Portuguese. A pun lost.
P.S. 2 - Weirdly, a Google search on "Zulu Duru" reveals his scam. Dumb criminal!

Mr Zulu & Sister

Dear Zulu, your words regarding Dr. Sow are very wellcome. I was worried, because I learned the board of directors is conducting a secret investigation on this whole affair, and I had to submit all the information I have. They consulted with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and are very suspicious of CBS. I want to tell you here and now that regardless of the transfer of your late father's funds, the Alliance has agreed to help with the immigration of you and your sister. You don't imagine how ruthless these investigators are. They started to spread rumors, and to say I was to gain from the transfer of your millions to Portugal! I swore by my late grandmother's bones that all I was trying to do was to help a fellow-cristian, but they don't believe me! I can lose my job!

You understand that due to the investigation being carried by the auditors, we are unable to send any money via Western Union. But don't despair! Jesus and Nossa Senhora de Fátima are taking care of you and Tina!

What you will do is to proceed to the TAP offices in Luanda, present your ID card and the attached document and receive your airplane ticket. Mention the code "SOU#OTARIO#2005" to the attendant. There is a refund form to be filled by you, and right away you can receive the US$ 1,000 we promised to help you with your expenses when travelling from Dakar to Luanda. You see, we keep our word: my friend Paulo Portas, the TAP Angola manager, devised this plan to give you the money and charge us later. TAP has a daily flight from Luanda to Lisbon, so I didn't make any reservations. But don't forget to tell us your date, flight and time of arrival. Avoid being detained, searched, tortured, bound, gagged and deported.

ONLY ONE ticket is available, you will have to let Tina languishing in the refugee camp; after you arrive in Lisbon we will try to bring her too. You see, it is like the movie "Sophie's Choice". You live. Tina rots. That's life. But when you are rich, maybe you decide to buy the refugee camp and turn it into a resort, Algarve-style, with golf courts, casino and private safari ranch, and a Tina Duru Memorial Crocodile Pond. She would probably do the same for you!

Please leave the refugee camp as soon as you can, because if you fail to travel to Portugal the investigators will blame me for everything, of inventing this whole story, of trying to illicitly transfer money abroad! Pray for me, son, so we can help you reach the safe, cristian shores of Portugal and later bring your sister and your father's money!

Yours in Jesus,

Manoel Arpoador

Dear Uncle,

Please be serious on what you are saying i mean how can i fly from Dakar Senegal to Angola without or my air ticket at hand uncle.

Meanwhile, i never want you to lost your job because you want help me and my sister to come and invest our funds there in Portugal to have new lifes uncle.

I have printed the documents which i will provide to the TAP AIRLINE OFFICE IN ANGOLA rightnow and while awaiting for my air ticket from Dakar Senegal to Angola uncle.

Please if you know that your are serious in all you said, ask for the money for my air ticket to angola.If not i will start to look for another entrusted foreign partner who will be willing to assist us without delaying us because the more time we waste here is the weaker we became.

Since, there's no money with uncle. I am very sad and worried over this your arrangement with your church.

For your informations, if your church do not believe us or do not wish to help, then just tell me and my foreign about the processing because i myself do not want to lost my funds to unknow person too.

Reply as soon as you get my mail.

Your's Truly Son,

Mr Zulu.

Zulu, I have the auditors on my back, my troubles are mounting, please don't doubt our Alliance and my personal commitment! Remember Job had patience and waited for God's deliverance from his troubles! Prepare for the good news!

It took me time and a lot of trouble, but I managed to arrange for the purchase of a ticket from Dakar to Lisbon, WITHOUT PASSING THROUGH LUANDA, so you don't have to spend your money. I was avoiding that... The problem is that the Alliance still doesn't have an account with the TAP Dakar branch. I had to buy the ticket with my own money. I know you are an honourable man, so I count on you to refund me when you arrive. Another thing, you will have to pay the airport tax in Dakar. It's around U$ 18.

I made the reservation and paid through the TAP website. Attached are the details. Print it and go to the Dakar Office / Escritório TAP - Rue Amadou Assane Ndoye, r/c 3. There you can look for Ms. Maria Bucetagrande (mornings) or Mr. Joaquim Paupequeno (afternoons). Mention the Code S0U#8URR0, present the reservation details, your ID card and the invitation I sent you before, and they will give you your ticket. Your plane leaves on Friday, November 25, at 02:55; TAP flight number 210. It means that you have to be at Yoff airport on Sunday, before midnight. Don't arrive late or you will lose the plane! If this happens, the refund is only 80% of the price! We lose 20% and will probably have to remain in Dakar!

I suggest you take these few days before leaving Senegal to pray and say goodbye to your friends in the refugee camp. Please tell them how Jesus delivered you from misery and squalor, and how they should convert from worshiping twigs and ants into Christianity.

I will be waiting for you in Lisbon, at the airport. I am sending an attached photo, so you can recognize me. I will not be alone, so please don't mention anything about the millions your father left. It is our secret, many people are not to be trusted, even in a religious organization. You must know that, living in a refugee camp where people would murder their own family for a roasted lizard leg...

Your plane arrives at 06:40 in the morning. We can have breakfast together and then proceed to the Alliance headquarters, at the Loreto Church, where a few of the members will be waiting. Again, please don't mention the money. For all purposes, I helped you just out of christian compassion. We will surprise them when you announce that you will be helping with the building of an orphanage! But let us first bring the money to Portugal, with the help of Mr Sow and Mr. Diop.

Another thing, because of the auditors investigation, we will not be able to use the Alliance's account, so we will have to transfer the money to my personal account. But we can take care of it later.

Yours in Jesus, and praying for a happy deliverance,

Manoel Arpoador

So i advice you recall your money for the air ticket back and beside i was informed by that the same senegal airport authorites police that i will need a valid passoprt with visa , air ticket and minmun of 1000 Euro money in my pucket before i will be allowed to pass through they airport or i will be luckup by police take to JALL for 3months and after that i will be deported back to my country without noting While my sister die in hunger here uncle.

Please think about it, i will not ganble my self while i know that my fund and sister is here for that matter, so i advice if you want us to come there you should have let us to finish this transaction first and along the processing you will send us only but little money at lest 500 Euro, to enable i and my sister to arrange our passports for the trip legaly uncle.

Beside, i can't go out of senegal without conclouding of this transfer, because it's our only hope of tommorrow and i will like you to understand that there's no way we will can go out of senegal without not confirming that our fund has be transferred to the conutry we are going to restart new life uncle.

As we do not want to anything to happen to our fund uncle and we don't want to lost the fund to unkown parson or to be betray by someone that's all i think before i change my mine not to travl until my fund is out of senegal and confirm the successfully.

I wait for your suggestion or we will start to look for another capable entrusted parson to help us and receive this fund uncle.

I wait for your reply soon.

Mr Zulu & Sister.


Did he go to TAP’s Dakar Office looking for Ms. Maria Bucetagrande (BigVagina) or Mr. Joaquim Paupequeno (SmallCock)? Did he mention the Code S0U#8URR0 (IAM#IDIOT), and asked for a refund? I think we’ll never know...
