My Dear,

Please do not take this fax for granted despite that we do not have any formal relationship. I got your fax number on a data base after my serious considerations on whom I should WILL this fund to.
I was married for about 27 years without a child before my husband died in February 2005, and I did not re-marry again because of my deep love for my late husband. Presently am undergoing a medical treatment for cancer, and now the doctors have finally said that I have little period of time more to live due to my problem.
Now with my health condition, I have decided to entrust some fund to your favor as the next beneficiary. My late husband has a cash sum of £2,500,000.00 (Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Great British Pounds) in the self deposit safe of a private security bank in London, UK. I want you to inherit this money as my dying wish hence I don’t have a child.
Forward me the following information to my lawyer: (Your full name, your contact address, and your telephone and fax number) to enable our family lawyer give a letter of undertaking to the security bank to instate your details as the beneficiary of the fund. Also contact our family lawyer: Mr. Steve Johnson, Email: [email protected] TEL: 00447924517819 FAX: 0044872 331 0973 for all the necessary legal assistance to ensure the transfer of the money to your account.
Your urgent response to this email as quick as possible is very important.

Welcome RobMcDonald,
thank you for submitting this warning. It goes to show that some scammers still rely on sending faxes to make first contact.
