Togo Gold Dust Scam
It doesn't take a Mensa member to figure out this scam!
This is a variation of the Advanced Fee scam. When you pay the "Exportation Fee" you can forget about hearing from these scam artists again.
This "Prince" is so desperate for victims, I received four of these emails one after the other.

Sir,
I wish to inquire if you would be interested in GOLD business or rather link me up to some interesting buyers on commission bases.
I am a Ghanaian based in Lome, Capital City of Togo by name Prince Robert Mensah, Director of ROCHGILL MINING S.A. Besides, I am a registered BROKER, representing some of the local small-scale miners (Suppliers).
I have presently in stock, 250kg of 22 CARATTPLUS of ALUVIAL GOLD DUST looking for a potential buyer with reasonable and considerable price of US$6,000 dollars per kg. This quantity is now available for Re-export under the custody of a Security Company, GLOBAL SECURITIES, located in Lome City, Togo. Sample of the species
could be dispatched to you on request. Customers are responsible for the cost of any required sample
Be also aware that complete delivery of the product to the buyer destination has been conditioned before payment. But the buyer should bear the total cost of the exportation charges, which is 6.8% of the total value of the product upon his or her satisfactory
Inspection.
Any expenses run in this regard should also be deducted from the full payment.
We are also available to sign a long-term contract agreement with the buyer under authentic conditions to implement more on the local sources for massive production. In this case the buyer will be obliged to visit this country for a table meeting on the general field as well as inspecting the mining areas.
Please contact the under named person through email for the necessary arrangement if interested. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Prince Robert K. Mensah
