I apologize for the testing that I have had to do to make sure that you are a business man in United State Of America or from any others country. I have to be very careful. My name is Dr. Brad Mark.

I work FOR WESTERN UNION. I am Director of Transaction Security department for eight nations in West Africa (but I am based in New York City).

I have an idea that can make both of us a LOT OF MONIES.

Every year, thousands of Western Union and Money Gram transfers are never picked up by the recipient.

Most are small ($2,000 to $1,000) but some are over $4,000.00 and above. Even though many transactions are small, if you pick up a lot of these, you can make a lot of money quickly.

The usual reason a transaction was not picked up is this: A tourist gets robbed or loses his wallet. He asks relatives in the USA or any others countries to send him money via Western Union or Money Gram Secure. He gets home without picking up the money, Then he discovers that the money can only be picked up in the country where he was traveling - it is not worth his time to travel back for $100, so he forgets about it. These abandoned transactions are called "orphans" here at Western Union. There are thousands of them!

After 180 days, the MTCN or reference number drops off the web and can no longer be checked on the internet. But it is still a good MTCN, and I HAVE ACCESS TO ALL THE ORPHAN MTCN'S References Numbers FOR EIGHT NATIONS.

I cannot travel to foreign countries myself to claim the money - it would be suspicious for a man in my position with Western Union to travel to most of the foreign countries, and then to have a lot of orphan transactions getting paid out. What I can do is give you the MTCN's, give you the question and the answer for each transaction, and change the name of the recipient to your name.

As a test, I will send you 20 relatively small MTCN numbers (total about $15,000) for whichever country you want out of my set of eight countries. You pick up the monies.

You send me one-half BY MONEY GRAM so that it cannot be traced to me.

Once you send me one-half, I will send you another set of 20 MTCN's to be picking up. Then another. Then another. And then another. There are thousands of these orphan MTCN's in each of my eight countries. Many of these transactions are larger than $4,000, and some are in excess of $3,000.

If you fail to send me 1/2, you will never hear from me again. But if you are faithful in sending me my percentage, I will send you lots of MTCNS!

Are you interested? Are you in United State or from which of the country? I have over 15 deference MTCNs that has to be activated for picking up by you.

If you are interested, I can give you my direct phone number.

Let me hear from you.

Thanks.

Dr. Brad Mark
