Hello Dear,
How are you doing today? I thank you for giving me your email ID it show the progressive nature of our conversation, I am here to tell you more about myself as I did not give you a full introduction in the match.com. Here are some few things you need to know about my background.
My name is Michael Peters from Lancaster(England),united kingdom and the only child of my parents but my father is late leaving only my mother as my only parent.My mother is white south African while my father is a Briton.I had my university Education in University of Lancaster University ,where I obtained first and second degrees in mechanical engineering and Environmental Science respectively.currently,I am working as independent contractor in marine supply equipment to oil companies world wide(it is my father owned business that I succeeded after his death).but my Elementary and High school was in Cape Town South Africa due to my mother's influence in the family.Because of my fundamental educational background in South Africa and also the environment I found my self as a kid,my accent is more like South Africans. Now you understand I am British but mixed.
I am straight forward in my dealings that is why I am explaining all this to you my dear, but I do hope accent does not matter in a relationship but good heart,understanding,care and love.What I long for is nothing but a healthy relationship based on love,trust and sacrifice for one another.
I was married with a crown male child called (Michael Jr) well,I have been separated from my wife by death.This occurred during her second birth child which took the life of her and my second child.It happened two years ago,in fact I suffered two death in that year because my beloved father died the same year.I loved my wife so much but death never allowed us to fulfill our dreams.Now am searching for my soul mate,I want someone who will love me the way she loves herself.Who understand that family is sacred and should have respect and value for the family.Honest and sincere. I am moderate christian (Catholic) I do not believe in stereotype,I judge individually.What that matters in relationship is the good heart and trust.
I am currently in USA on a business trip but will be in UK in a couple of weeks.I will be glad if you can send me an introduction message.I have attached a few pictures of me and wish you can send me some of your pictures.Feel free to ask me any question.
I really wish to hear from you soonest.
Have a nice day.
Best Regards,

He sounds like a fraud to me, but I supposed I just want to make sure. His email style is new, I couldn't find much example of this, and I must say, the contents are quite convincing. Except the bad spelling and punctuations, and very strange use of phrases and names.
I'd post the pictures he had posted me, except I'm at work now, and all photosharing sites are banned from the intranet.
