mailed-by: gmail.com

Dear Fund Beneficiary,

I am still in great shock and confusion as to why you have decided to
abandon this great fortune. Even if you did not meet up with the
provisions of the required payment for the delivery of the Atm Card
,is it not necessary that you explain things to me???

I was made to believe that maybe you are not the real owner of this
money because if you are you would have talked to me and sought a way
to get funds safely.

Well, my dear, do you have anything to say as someone was here last
week and claimed that you are dead and before your death that you
brokered your debt to him, thereby making him a sole beneficiary of
this fund. He came with the little delivery fee and requested from you
and he was ready to pay the money before I stopped him.

He gave us your funeral pictures and also an affidavit to this effect.
I was convinced because when I saw the picture, on second thought, I
said I must send an email to your email address to see if they are
saying the truth or not and that is why you're receiving this email.

So please ,if you are alive, this is your chance to make amends and if
you are dead as they said, they will get the money by next week

Thank you.

Regards,

mailed-by: gmail.com

Dear Beneficiary

I am very sorry for not contacting you with details of this payment
for this long now. I have been very busy, that's the cause. Please
accept my apology..

There is an unpaid fund bearing your email address here long time ago
, the money was willed to you by a dying cancer woman by name Mrs
Maria Stubbs, May her soul rest in peace.. I do not know if you were
not properly informed about this as I suspected. Some group of
officials wanted to divert the money to their private account because
it was done by a random email address selection before you were
selected among others...

You guys were 4 people in number who were lucky to be shortlisted as
benefiting beneficiaries and 3 people out of this 4 have received
their inheritance but I see that some people wanted to use this as an
opportunity to enrich themselves, while the fund beneficiary stays out
there in dark due to that lack of proper information because of their
selfish gains.

However, on resumption of duty to this new office, I decided to take
it upon myself to see that you receive your fund in good condition
since all your home address as recorded has been erased from the
system by my immediate past boss which was discharged from office by
our newly elected President due to corruption. I was only able to
manage to get this name and this email address which
was used in the spinning. thats why i contacted you via the email
address hoping to speak to the right, my faith does not accept such
ill-treatment to humanity.

We have made a prepaid Visa card that has a daily cash withdrawal
limit of $100,000,00, You can use up to $500,000.00 USD daily on POS.
You can also transfer from your new card to any account for limit of
$250,000.00 daily .

The card was deposited the card with the shipping company long time
ago but to my greatest surprise they called me and complained that
you abandoned this card, so it was returned back to us, not really
knowing that you have not even been informed in the first place due to
their evil intentions towards your fund.

So now that you are here you have to send your information for the
delivery of the card after your fund release approval documents is
issued to you.

Send the following details:....................
1. Your full names............................
2. Your delivery address......................
3.Your telephone number...........................
4..Your Occupation..................................

Your cell telephone number will be needed where the dispatch rider
will call you on the arrival of your Atm card parcel in your country.
I will also call and speak with you before we will ship out the Card..

Get back to me urgently so that we can conclude matters regarding the payment .

I have attached the copy of the funeral picture they presented to me
and my picture with them.

Let me have the requested information so that we can proceed. The card
contains your US$5.5M being your bequeath
Thank you.

Regards,
