How do they get your e-mail?
So I get this e-mail this afternoon-
Quote:
My Dear Friend,
It is with heartfelt hope that I write to seek your co-operation and assistance in the context stated below. I am Barr. Chukwu Obi James, a lawyer. I am the personal attorney to my late client, An American; who was a contractor, and physician George Brumley Jr. On Saturday, July 19 2003, my client and his family were involved in a plane crash in which all occupants of the plane died.
My client deposited as family belongings in the sum of Twenty million United State Dollars only (20,000.000.00) with the hope of transferring it to his country as soon as his contract expires. Since his death I have made several enquiries to his embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, but this attempt so far has been unsuccessful.
According to the {DEED OF WILL} made by my late client, He wrote a {DEED OF WILL} that if anything should happen to him, That i should locate any of his family member, With this {DEED OF WILL} I decided to trace his last name over the Internet to locate any member of his family. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 3 years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased.
I agree to pay you 40% of the fund, 40% to me and While 20% can be also paid to you as the next of kin and incase if you
spend any money for an {AFFIDAVIT OF TRUE NEXT OF KIN}.
All I require is your honest co-operation. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please accept my apologies, keep my confidence and disregard this email if you do not appreciate this proposition I have offered you.
However, if you wish to help me actualize this, do get back to me so I will let you know what is required of you.
Best
regards,
Barr. Chukwu Obi James

I have a spam blocker and my trash fills up quickly anymore. More so since I moved south.
Which leaves me wondering why things like this sometimes slip through and if any of you out there would like to take this obviously honest man up on his generous offer?
