Dear Fr.Ted
Thanks for your quick response to my mail.How are you today and
your pastoral work? May God continue to strenghten you. I got your
address from a guestbook which i can't even remember the exact guestbook
while i was surfing the net and the Holy spirit ministered to me
to write you this is the reason i wrote you.
[That would probably be one of the 20+ guestbooks
I placed Father Ted's details into then!]
God bless you.

From: Father Ted Crilley
To: Ojukwu Damisa
Date: 01/11/03
Dear Mr. Damisa,
God bless you and how are you today? Thank you for your explanation
of where you found my details.
Your letter has come to the right place. As you know, my name is
Father Ted Crilley of the Church of The Holy Cow. We have nearly
300 churches in our ministry.
I must say that you are working for a wonderful cause, and you
are to be blessed for passing along the word of God.
A little about our ministry: We are fundamental Christians and
Animalistic constortians. This means that we worship Almighty God
as all Christians do, but we also hold certain animals in very high
regards, as in the Indian faith, we regard the cow as the holiest
of God's holy creatures, hence out church is named The Church of
The Holy Cow. Every member who joins our ministry has a cow branded
with their name, this shows their faith in our ministry and also
saves this wonderful creature from being slaughtered for food. The
member's cow becomes adopted into the church and is saved from stress
and fear. All adopted cows are keep on our 200,000 acre ranch in
Florida.
I think I may be able to help you. You see, my ministry regularly
makes charitable donations to worthy causes, and after speaking
with my committee members, we are of the opinion that your cause
is indeed very worthy, and if you will allow us we would like to
make a donation to your cause to help you in seeing your dream of
a ministry become a reality. Hopefully you will also agree to forward
the word of God more easily.
Your case seems very worthwhile, and whilst we cannot donate very
large amounts because we have already made many successful donations
this year. The donation committee has agreed that we would be able
to send you the small sum of US $274,330 (two hundred and seventy
four thousand, three hundred and thirty dollars). We are usually
able to donate larger amounts but at the moment are funds are quite
limited as we are at the end of our financial year. This money would
be sent to you in a manner of your choosing, and hopefully it would
enable you to forward the word of God much more easily.
Of course, we do not send out payments without going through the
proper procedures, so if you would like to claim the cash, these
are the steps you will need to take:
1. The Church of The Holy Cow will send you a agreement form, which
you will have to complete and sign.
2. On receipt of the form, we will require a photographs of you,
or a trusted representative as proof of identity. You will have
to get a NEW photographs taken, holding two symbol of ours. The
two symbols we need you to hold are a logo of our church and bottle
or carton of milk (the name of our church). This proves that the
person in the photograph is genuine. Passport or other photographs
will NOT be accepted.
If you agree to the two conditions above, we will attach the agreement
form for you to complete, and then after that we will explain to
you what type of photograph we need from you. Please do not send
a photograph until we have explained how we want the photograph
to be taken. On receipt of a SATISFACTORY photograph, we will immediately
forward the $274,330.00 to you in a manner of your choice. Please
do not send the photograph until the donation committee have informed
me how they would like it to be posed.
Please let me know ASAP if you are interested in my offer Mr.Damisa,
and I will forward you the agreement for your signature ASAP.
May God bless you,
Father Brian Potter
The Church of The Holy Cow.

Dear Fr. Ted,
Thanks for your mail. Infact i am very happy that your ministry
will help me in this cause and it will be my joy to send whatever
passport or photographs to you.
Please let me know how to proceed.
May God bless you.

Dear Mr. Damisa,
Bless you for your quick reply. Please find attached the following
images:
holycowchurch.jpg
This is a photograph of one of our smaller churches, which we opened
last month.
holycowlogo.jpg
This is the logo of The Church of The Holy Cow.
damisaagreement.jpg
This is the agreement form.
To qualify for the donation, you will need to do the following:
First you will need to complete and sign the attached agreement
form (damisaagreement.jpg).
Once you have completed that, you will need to get a LARGE and CLEAR
photograph taken of yourself. This is how the church would like
it:
You will need to print out the church logo as large as you can (holycowlogo.jpg).
Then you must find either a BOTTLE OF MILK or a CARTON OF MILK.
Sit in a chair and place the bottle or carton of milk ON YOUR HEAD
and also hold the picture of the CHURCH LOGO. Then get someone to
take a photograph of you in this pose. One you have had the photograph
taken of yourself with the MILK ON YOUR HEAD and HOLDING THE LOGO,
please send it back to me.
On receipt of a SATISFACTORY photograph and completed agreement
form, the church will IMMEDIATELY forward full payment to you in
the manner of your choosing.
PLEASE NOTE: It is VERY IMPORTANT that the photograph you send is
LARGE and CLEAR. This is so as to avoid any possibility of forgery.
I realise of course that the request may seem strange to you Mr.
Damisa, but it is because of this that the donation committee will
know that the picture is 100% genuine, after all, it may be possible
for a dishonest person to find a photograph of a man with a bottle
of milk, but it would be impossible to find one in the way we ask.
As you can understand, because of the large amount of money that
we will be donating, we have to be extremely careful with our security
procedure to make sure that only trusted partners receive the cash.
I look forward to hearing from you very soon.
Blessings,
Father Ted Crilley.
The Church of The Holy Cow.

very important that the image you send is LARGE and CLEAR so that
the photograph can be verified and 100% real.
You must ensure our logo is very clear on the photograph. The committee
(seven people) will view the image you send, and if it is passed
as acceptable and genuine then the money can be awarded to you ASAP.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.
God bless you,

Dear Father Ted,
The following in the attachment is the agreement and the picture.The
picture is clear but after scanning it the church LOGO is not as
clear on the picture as the original copy.
With the fund your ministry is donating i am planning
to establish a center where the less previledged can come and feel
at home and to teach them more about the HOLY COW CHURCH once you
enlighten me more about your church. I am very sure people will
be willing to learn about your ministry and i pray that once the
donation is granted i will get to meet you one day. Olease respond
as soon as you recieve the picture and the agreement.
God bless.

Dear Mr. Damisa,
My apologies for the late reply. I have been away on church business
and this has taken me longer than expected.
I would like to thank you very much for the photograph you have
sent to me, and I am pleased to tell you that the Donation Committee
have accepted it. We shall make the payment to you very shortly.
Please will you forward me the beneficiary name for the payment,
and also tell me how you would like to receive the payment?
Damisa, there is one last thing I will need to request from you.
As I said before, I have been away on church business, and it was
because we have had to process our donations in a different way.
According to our ministry leader, the reverend Vincent Price, some
church funds have been sent to the wrong people, so unfortunately,
it is required that before we can send you a payment that you need
to scan for me a HAND WRITTEN letters to thanks the committee for
their donation. I have attached the text that I suggest you write.
Also, please put on the end of the letter the name and address of
the person who is to receive the payment.
[TEXT FOR DAMISA'S LETTER INSERTED HERE]
Damisa, please ensure that this letter is HAND WRITTEN and then
scan the letter to us. Please ensure that the scanned image is large,
and that the writing can be very clearly read.
On receipt of the hand written letter, and the name and address
of the payee, we shall forward the payment to you immediately.
God bless you,
Father Ted Crilley.
The Church of The Holy Cow.

Dear Mr. Damisa,
On behalf of Father Ted I send my apologies for his late reply.
Unfortunately Father Ted has been quite ill for the last few days.
He has Saturday Night Fever and has been confined to bed. I am told
he will be recovered in the next 2-3 days and he has told me he
will contact you then.
Sincerely,
Father Cosmo Naut.

[Time to give Damisa some bad news]
From: Father Cosmo Naut
To: Ojukwu Damisa
Date: 25/11/03
Dear Mr. Damisa,
It is my sad duty to inform you that Father Ted Crilley passed away
in the early hours of yesterday morning. It seems his old body was
too weak to fight the Saturday Night Fever he was suffering, and
he died peacefully in his sleep. I am very sorry to bring you such
bad news.
I have been ordered by the Donation Committee to take over your
case, and I have been going through your emails to Father Ted very
carefully. I am sorry to have to tell you that Father Ted has made
a mistake with your case. Father Ted was very old, and at the age
of 87 he was getting very forgetful. Do not worry though Mr. Damisa
as the donation can still be sent to you, but I will have to ask
you to submit a different photograph,
I note that Father Ted accepted your photograph which you sent on
the 6th of November. Father Ted should not have accepted the photograph
as our church logo was not clear. The rules of the donation state
that BOTH images of must be clear, this is not the case with your
image. Unfortunately Father Ted made a mistake in accepting that
image so you will need to get a new one sent to us before we can
issue the payment to you.
I of course realise that there may be a problem for you to get a
clear image of our logo, so I will make another suggestion which
should result in a suitable photograph.
Please signal your agreement to have another photograph taken and
I will explain a more suitable pose to use in the photograph. Once
your new photograph is received then I have full authority to issue
the payment to you immediately.
Sincerely,
Father Cosmo Naut.
The Church of The Holy Cow.

Ojukwu Damisa
From: Father Cosmo Naut
To: Ojukwu Damisa
Date: 25/11/03
Dear Mr. Damisa,
Bless you for your prompt reply. I shall explain about the photograph:
It would be best for you not to use our logo again as this may not
appear clearly on the photograph, and I do not want you to waste
your time trying to take a photograph that may not appear correctly.
Here is a better plan: Sit in a chair, then take two bottles of
MILK. Place the bottles of milk to each ear (the left and right)
and hold them in such a position so that it looks like you are pouring
the milt into your ears. Please get someone to photograph you in
this pose and then send it to me for verification. As before, the
request may seem strange, but it is this very thing that will make
the photograph impossible for a unholy person to forge.
I must stress that the image must be very large and clear. Please
do not delay matters by sending a small image. Small and unclear
images will not be accepted.
I wish you well with your endeavour Mr. Damisa and I look forward
to receiving your image very soon.
God bless you.
Father Cosmo Naut

Dear Father Cosmo,
Thank you for your quick response. I will want to verify one more

do i take it with the image of the church also as i will not want
to make any mistake.
Let me know immediately sir,
Ojukwu Damisa

To: Ojukwu Damisa
Date: 25/11/03
Dear Mr. Damisa,
Thank you for being sensible enough to check with me. It is good
to see that you are making a good effort to proceed correctly. I
will explain a little more clearly for you.
1. Sit in a chair.
2. Hold a bottle of MILK in your RIGHT hand.
3. Hold a bottle of MILK in your LEFT hand.
4. Hold one bottle to your RIGHT ear so that it looks like you are
pouring it in your RIGHT ear.
4. Hold the other bottle to your LEFT ear so that it looks like
you are pouring it in your LEFT ear.
Have your photograph taken in this position.
I hope that explanation is clear for you Mr. Damisa?
There is no need for you to show the church logo, but if you can
find a way to display the logo at the same time then I am sure the
donation committee will look on this very favourably.
Take care my friend,
Father Cosmo Naut.
