Dear friend,



Thank you for your prompt response, I appreciate your interest in this transaction. However I would like to be sure of your willingness, trustworthiness and commitment to execute this transaction with me, I cannot afford to compromise these virtues considering the money involved, it is necessary for me to be sure of the person to whom I will be entrusting in this transaction, my trust is not given out lightly.



First, I would like to introduce myself. I am James Reese, a Top male crew member in British Air ways and I live in the United Kingdom. I am a native of black American and I am 52 years old now. I have worked with the Air way company for 22 years now and I am married with no kid. I got your contact from group of recipients of a forwarded circulating email message.



Now the situation is this, Eighteen months ago before I resumed duty again as a crew member in British Air Ways after recuperating from a health problem, I was opportune to come across an abandoned perfectly sealed leather made box luggage of about 10.2kg weight size in the Air plane that contained an amount worth $6.5 million US dollars and with a tiny silver colored key at the side opening which was meant to be delivered by the Air way Courier department ‘In deceit’ as a box of African cloths. This perfectly sealed leather made box luggage was suspected to be owned by a dubious corrupt government official from one of the African nations who may have attempted Money Laundry.



Upon my discovery, I quickly took this perfectly sealed leather made box luggage to a security company and I registered it as an abandoned Valuable in the Great United Kingdom before I now went for my medical treatment. When I returned and resumed duty again after 18 eighteen months it was brought to my notice that Argos Travel Insurance has paid for the missing box on behalf of the British Air Ways that I work for and the issue has been laid to rest since 13 Months ago.







In regards the legality of the transaction, Being a foreigner and total avoidance of risk for now and in future, l want you to stand as the legitimate Owner of the Box Luggage and the claim shall pass through all international laws in my country and yours, my Attorney shall start handling the entire documentations, he shall be responsible for drafting and notarization of the Affidavits which will eventually put you in place as the legitimate owner of this luggage with the security company. He would handle all matters of probate on your behalf, hence you would not have to be here physically, and you will not be required to be in Court, in order to obtain the Affidavits from the probate registry that will be issued in your name and automatically makes you the legal beneficiary to the funds for the both of us. To enable my attorney file necessary documents at our High court probate division, details he would need is stated below:



YOUR FULL NAMES

YOUR FULL MAILING ADDRESS

YOUR DATE OF BIRTH AND PLACE OF BIRTH

PRESENT COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE

PRESENT OCCUPATION

TELEPHONE/FAX NUMBER



Normally, I am always away from the UK and returns once in every two months to visit my family and this is due to my job schedule in overseas as an airline staff. What I proposed to you is that you will assist me in transferring this fund from the UK to your home country where I shall visit you once I return back to the UK from my work station.



And It is VERY important you note that We cannot make use of your old bank account for security reasons because l want to be sure that my Attorney becomes the only signatory to the account, for the purpose of this transaction you would be required to open first, A Fresh Account in your name where this fund could be deposited by the Attorney here in the Great Britain and which we both will have equal total control over. However l will avail you more details and modalities of this transaction immediately l hear from you with the full contact details for the attorney to proceed the legal documentation as explained above.



I have handed over the key of the box to my Attorney so that he could open the box luggage once it is been claimed from the security company himself and deposit the sum in a Bank account here in the UK before an onward transfer is effected as this will make this transaction 100% risk free for the both of us.



Any tax incurred in your country and any other expenses as well as your expenses to include your telephone bills for this transaction will be deducted from the whole fund, the balance would be shared in a ratio of 70% for me while 30% for you in this regards all expenses incurred should be noted down if possible an evidence of the payments made both for telephone bills should be calculated and kept aside for records on the time of sharing both from your side and mine. I shall keep my records and also notify you of my spending on the legal process.



Upon the agreement of the above terms and conditions l will want you to send me the information needed along with any payment of your utility bills to confirm your address so that I would know I am dealing with the right person and feel free to ask any questions in regards to this transaction and a brief description of your self will be highly appreciated in your response.



My regards to you and the family.



Mr. James Reese

Every day, we are assaulted by stories of stupid people -- many of whom use their stupidity for personal gain. From time to time, though, we hear of those who strive to achieve new levels of stupidity.

Nice one Donald.

I wouldn't call it original but it is at least slightly different from the usual scam mails which are little more than regurgitated stories with names and details changed.

Unfortunately scammers capacity for thinking through a story is pretty hopeless. This description is brilliant

‘In deceit’


His description of the lost property sequence of events shows a complete lack of knowledge of anything like the proper process, and for some bizarre reason has even introduced probate into the equation though there is no mention of anyone dying.

The inclusion of the following words/phrases immediately condemns it as a scam

modalities
100% risk free
l want you to stand as the ......

We cannot make use of your old bank account for security reasons because l want to be sure that my Attorney becomes the only signatory to the account, for the purpose of this transaction you would be required to open first, A Fresh Account in your name where this fund could be deposited by the Attorney here in the Great Britain and which we both will have equal total control over.


This paragraph is ridiculous and illogical. If the Attorney is the only signatory to this new account then only he will have control over it. The scammer is clueless and trying to make the transaction sound complex and requiring his expert knowledge when, in fact, he demonstrates that he doesn't know what he's talking about.
