Dear friend,

First and formost,i want to thank you for responding to my proposal and i bet this will be a blessing to you.The amount in question is US$60m(Sixty million USA dollar).I have all the clue as concerned this funds from my late client since i worked very closely with him while he was alive.I am in a very desperate situation now because the finance security company where the aforementioned sum was deposited has given me an ultimatum to provide my late client's next of kin ,else the table would be turned around and that means invoking the property act and the fund confisticated.

I want to present your information to the company as the next of kin.You can still decide to appear in person if you have the chance.I have all the legal/legitimate documents to back this claims.The security company has assured me that they will release the fund as soon as i present the next of kin to my late client.You do not have any thing to lose,no risk involved,all i need is your co-operation.

Before we continue i would want you to know that i am ready to share the fund 50/50 with you after it has been released to you.

I want you to forward to me the following information for the application and necassary papework:

1.Your full name
2.Direct phone number
3.Fax Number
4.Home address

sorry i could not get connected to you on phone.

I await you urgent reply

Regards,
John Scot
