Dear Beneficiary,
Firstly, I would like to thank you for taking your time to write back as i
expected. A donation of $800,000.00.USD (EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED
STATE DOLLARS.) is made to you. I’m not used to writing a lengthy message,
but I think I would make this brief. I still find it very difficult to
introduce myself, I'll rather let someone else do that for me.I am
François Pinault, a French Citizen and a businessman, 82 years old, worth
about $33.4 billion US dollars.You can verify this information from my
Wikipedia:
https://www.forbes.com/profile/francois-pinault/
OR
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fran%C3%A7ois_Pinault
I know the internet is compromised and people find it hard to embrace such
great opportunity, the intention of this email is to be of immense blessing
to people and the world in general and not to rip from anyone, I cannot
continue to amass wealth without giving out, I might not have the liberty
of time due to my ailment (Dementia), therefore, I am doing this
now.Through the help of our longtime partners, Microsoft Cooperation, we
generated fifty thousand (50,000) email ID's from a pool of over 25,000 web
of distinguished professionals and individuals drawn from Europe, America,
Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Middle-East, Africa and North & South
America. Beneficiaries are selected through the Microsoft Computer Ballot
System {CBS}. However, your E-mail Account was among the final 5,000
Beneficiaries that was luckily selected.
I have handed all my wealth to my children, but there is part of it which
nobody is aware of I have been putting it away for this purpose since a
long time now, I want to cede it out as gift for you to help Orphanages
homes in your country, hoping it would be of help to you and others too, as
this is my last wish to appreciate God for his grace upon my life.
I would have done this myself but for my health reason and if I do it
through my eldest son, François-Henry Pinault, I am very certain he will
not take it serious. François-Henry Pinault took me to court the last time
I gave out money out of generosity but he is still my son. I have made life
worth living for myself and my family, it is my hope that you are able to
receive this money, all I want from you is to be honest with me and help
others from it too. One can never put a price tag on the feeling of doing
genuine good deeds without any consideration of recompense.
As I wait for your quick response, I wish you a wonderful day.
Yours Faithfully,
Mr. François Pinault

I am Francois Pinault, I am a French Citizen and a businessman, 88 years old, and worth $30.1 billion US Dollars.
The intention of this email is to be of immense blessing to people, at my age, I cannot continue to amass wealth without giving out. I might not have the liberty of time due to my ailment (Dementia), therefore, I am doing this now. I have handed all my wealth to my children, but there is part of it which nobody is aware of. I have been putting it away for this purpose for a long time now. I want to cede it out as a gift for you to help Orphanages homes in your country, and hoping it would be of help to you and others too, as this is my last wish to appreciate God for his grace upon my life.

I have made life worth living for myself and my family, it is my hope that you are able to receive this money, all I want from you is to be honest with me and help others from it too.10% of my worth I've been putting away in a private deposit for a long time now and have reached an amount of $73,500,000.00. I am trying to cede this money in portions through the bank I deposited it to as many as can benefit from it because I don't really have much to do with it. As I send this message to you, I am also sending to churches, Orphanages, and individuals, 10% to you and others each to whom I have contact with already. Now, all this being said, if you know you are ready to receive the funds $7,350,000 (Seven Million, Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand United State Dollars).

Then I will give you a letter to receive your portion of the money from the bank. This is my personal money and does not need many formal procedures, some beneficiaries have received theirs. My only term is that you be sincere to me and help the less privileged people that's all. Please make it fast because I have only a few days to use a computer since the doctors have given instructions to stop me from using electronics.
As I wait for your response, I wish you a wonderful day.
