Sequel to your non response of our earlier letter to you on behalf of the Trustees and Executors to the Will of our late client. I wish to notify you that you were listed as a beneficiary to the total sum of $11,500,000.00 (Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in the codicil and last testament of the deceased. Until his death he was a major share holder in big companies which include textile and construction companies.
He was a very great philanthropist during his lifetime. He died on 9th January 2004 at the age of 68. He was buried on the 3rd of February 2004. Even though he was a foreigner living and working here he requested before his death that he be buried here in his words, "I regard here as my home and the people as my people".
We therefore reckoned that you can receive this fund as you are qualified by your name identity. All the legal papers will be processed on your response. In your acceptance of this deal, we request that you kindly forward any proof of identities of yours, your current telephone and fax numbers and forwarding address to enable us file necessary documents at our high court probate division for the release of this sum of money.
Thank you for your time and consideration and hope to hear from you soonest.
Congratulations.
Yours faithfully,
Barr. Benson Boyd

Hello Barr. Benson Boyd,
He was a major shareholder in big companies? He regarded there as his home and those people as his people?
This sounds like my long lost uncle Harry. Was the deceased name Harry? If so, I want very much to help.
I so dearly miss my uncle Harry. I don't know why it took a month to bury him - I can only assume it was because he was over 400 pounds. Someone that big could take one full month to bury.
My new friend Barr. Benson Boyd, I accept this deal and I would like to know what you want me to send to show that I am qualified. I attached my driver's license and would like to know what else you need.
I'm coming Uncle Harry!
Ocala,

Dear John Reed
I received your mail and I wish to thank you immensely for your response. I hope this will turn out to be a long and lasting business relationship together. This transaction is 100% safe and legal as you'll get to see as we go along, all procedures leading to the transfer of the funds to your local account or through our correspondence bank has to be secured with strict adherence to statutory provision of the law. As soon as the machinery to commence is set in motion, all the proof and copies of the documentation shall be sent to you in the course of the transaction and as at when due.
Due to the very sensitive nature of this pending transaction, please bear with me if I am being a little vague at this early stage as I am as skeptical as you are with communicating with a total stranger,but please be rest assured that the funds will be backed up with documents stating the origin of the fund and that it being funds for an inheritance going by the documents that will be secured, you will not have anything to worry about. It is a given thing that trusts is earned, it is not given out lightly, However, because of my dire need for a foreign partner in this transaction, I request your assistance to stand as the next of kin to the beneficiary of the estate of the deceased. The reason why i contacted you for this transaction is because you bear the same surname with the deceased. The name of the deceased is Mark Reed .
My client died in auto accident with his immediate family, All my effort to locate his relations was fruitless because the information i have about the deceased background is limited. The deceased has no next of kin to inherit his funds deposit. Based on the law of my country the funds will be forfeited to the bank where the fund is deposited as unclaimed fund if I did not present to the bank the next of kin to enable the bank release the fund to the person. The
reason why you are contacted for this transaction is because you bear the same surname with the deceased and that makes it possible for you to stand as the next of kin to the deceased to make claims on the inheritance fund for our mutual benefit. I will use my
influence and position as the deceased personal attorney to authorize the release of the fund to youfor our mutual benefit. For this, I urge you to propose a reasonable percentage of the total funds as your share and also expression of my gratitude for your assistance and
partnership, thus encouraging you to guaranty that my share of the funds will be secured and transferred to me as when required. I shall require some information and a brief profile of yourself and upon receipt of the information, I shall immediately forward it to the Holden bank to begin the processes which will lead to the approval and release of the funds to you as the bonafide executor and next of kin of the depositor going by the documents that will be secured. After all the necessary documentation for the funds release are met and satisfied, approval shall be given by the legal department of the bank for the eventual release
of the funds to you. If you do not want to give out your bank account, I can apply on your behalf for the fund to be paid to you by certified check.
When the funds is transferred to you, you have to transfer percentage of my share of the funds to me through an account that I shall give to you at that time. I shall equally require your assistance in advising me on good investment opportunities in your country as I might invest the remaining part of my share of the funds in your country. I am expecting your response to enable us proceed. Note: I want you to keep this transaction to yourself
alone to enable us achieve a successful transfer of the fund to you for our mutual benefit. Feel free to contact me on my private telephone line: + 234 8080702774. I will be expecting your call.
Kind Regards
Benson Boyd

Dear John Reed
This is how we are going to proceed for the actualization of the transfer. I will go to the bank to submit application for the immediate release of the inheritance fund to you as the rightful beneficiary/next of kin. Immediately the application is approved the bank will contact you officially to notify you when the fund will be release to you.
First of all, I want you to understand that i really appreciate the effort you have shown so far in this transaction. What i want you to do in this transation is this.
(1) I want you to stand as the next of kin to the deceased so that the fund will be approved for transfer to you for our mutual benefit.
(2) I want you to understad that the deceased has no next of kin who will inherit his fund deposit. This is the reason why i decided to use my influence and position as the deceased personal attorney to authorize the release of the inheritance fund to you
for our mutual benefit. The information i have about the deceased background is limited and that is the reason why i find it difficult to locate the real relations of the deceased.
(3) I want you to understand that if the fund remains unclaimed within the next few weeks, the fund will be forfeited to the bank as an unclaimed fund based on the law of my country. If the fund is forfeited to the bank where the fund is deposited, I want you to understand that the people that will now benefit from the fund are those greedy top bank officials who will like to reap where they did not sow. This is the reason why i decided to use my influence and position to authorize the release of the fund to you for our mutual benefit since the deceased has no next of kin. Based on the fact that you bear the same surname with the deceased which makes it possible for you to be legally acceptable to stand as the next of kin to the deceased to make claims on the inheritance fund for our mutual benefit.
(4) You have to make sure that you keep this transaction to yourself alone. Do not involve any other person into this transaction. You know very well that you are not in any way related to the deceased and as such you have to keep things to yourself. I am assuring you that i will use my influence and position as the deceased personal attorney to authorize the release of the fund to you for our mutual benefit. You have to abide to my instructions to enable us achieve success.
(5) I propose that we share the fund 50% each.
(6) I have decided to invest my own share of the fund into real estate investments or any other profitable business opportunities in your country through your assistance.
(7) I will come over to your country once we finalize this transaction for the sharing and we will utilize the opportunity to see each other face to face and also discuss further on how you will help me to invest my share of the fund.
I do not want a situation whereby people will be aware of the transaction and thereby start to raise their eyebrows on the fund which will certainly jeopardize the good chances we have to actualize the smooth and easy transfer of the fund to you for our mutual benefit.
Rightnow, I want you to bring out your mind and let us put our heads together with one mind to enable us conclude this trasaction successfully within a short notice. I want you to understand that this transaction is supposed to be finalized in the next 7 days based on how fast both of us can communicate. This transaction is a golden opportunity which i cannot afford to loose.
I will be expecting your response once you recieved anything from the bank. Feel free to contact me on telephone number + 234 808 324 5096. I will be expecting your call.

Dear Akintola Williams,
I submitted the requested copy of the legal documents to be forwarded to your office TWO DAYS AGO!
I suggest you look again and find it. I thought I was doing business with a professional legal department! You are like school-children!
I submitted the requested copy of the legal documents two days ago and you have the nerve to tell me to submit it again!?
I am now giving YOU 24 hours to find the document or my lawyers and I will find you and Mr. Benson Boyd in breach of a legal contract as recognized by the International Legal Guild, LLC, Section 2248-12, Paragraph 14, Line 3-5.
Failure to comply will result in federal confiscation of you electronic, poultry, and furnished goods both inside and outside your offices and private residences until just compensation is achieved as recognized by the International Legal Guild, LLC, Section 2248-31, Paragraph 2-8, Line 11-98.
Furhtermore, should the transfer of the funds fail to complete as scheduled and the promised sum not delivered you will be found as accomplices in the theft of said sum and therefor responsible for the delivery of said sum, in full, to the account as discussed in Subset A four two nine, as recognized by the International Legal Guild, LLC, Section 2287-01, Section 1, Paragraph 1, Line 3-27.
Find the requested copy of the legal documents I forwarded to your office two days ago or I will be forced to proceed with very vicious legal action.

Thank you so much for your understanding and the interest you have shown so far to assist in this transaction. You did not dialmy telephone number correctly. This is my telephone number. You have to dial it this way since you are making a long distance call from your country, 011 234 808 324 5096. I will be expecting your call.
I have applied in the bank for the release of the inheritance funds to you. Hopefully the bank will contact you any moment from now when the application is approved. Please do inform me whenever you receive any email from the bank.

Hello Benson,
Do you know what I feel like doing right now? I feel like understanding and showing interest in assiting the transaction.
I dialed your phone number again just like you sent me: 011 234 808 5096 324. I called and I called and I called and it did not work. I am thinking over and over how I can get this wrong but I do not know. I do not dial international very often and I think I am missing something.
The bank contacted me already, but they were very rude. They asked me to send them some form so I did, and then they told me to do it again. We're talking about a large sum of money and they are acting like children!
Can we do this transaction with another bank? Can we find someone else at the back to work with? I do not like sending the same form twice!
Please help.

I managed to resolve the issue with the bank management. Rightnow,Ican understand that you are not in any way a reliable person.

Dear benson Boyd,
Excuse me!? How dare you call me an unreliable person!!!
You came to me for help and I decided to help you. You asked me to send you information, personal information, and I sent it. You asked me to communicate with the bank and I did.
I have done everything you asked of me. EVERYTHING!
I do not have any doubt about this transaction. I do have doubt about you. If anyone should be questioning anyone's behavior it should be me questioning your behavior instead of you questioning my behavior because my behavior has been spectacular as opposed to your behavior which has left much to be desired.
Mr. Benson Boyd, I still want very much for this transaction to take place because we are talking about a large sum of money. I have done everything over here that you have asked of me, the problem is over there where you are.
I am going to give you one last chance. Let's start over so there is no more confusion and get this transaction done!
