Never mind altruism, let’s go straight for greed

November 21st, 2009 · No Comments · Smoke and mirrors

After a period when it looked like scammers had got bored with the 419, here it is back in abundance. We have received five or six of these in the course of a couple of weeks, after months of being free of them.

The four exclamation marks in the title are probably alone four more than lawyers have ever used.

This one dispenses with phoney altruism and makes a direct appeal to greed and entitlement. Should you have arrived here via Google and be unfamiliar with this kind of communication, you should know that it is a thoroughgoing scam posted for the purpose of more widely publicising its inauthenticity. You should never reply to such communications.

INHERITANCE NOTIFICATION!!!

On behalf of the Trustees and Executor of the estate of Late Engr.Juriaan Kugger. I once again
try to notify you as my earlier letter were returned undelivered. I wish to notify you that late
Engr. Juriaan Kugger made you a beneficiary to his WILL.

He left the sum of Thirty Million,One Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$30, 100.000.00) to you in
the Codicil and last testament to his WILL. This may sound strange and unbelievable to you,
but it is real and true. Being a widely traveled man, he must have been in contact with you in
the past or simply you were nominated to him by one of his numerous friends abroad who
wished you good. Engr. Juriaan Kugger until his death was a member of the Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic & Electrical Engineers. Please if I reach you as I am hopeful, endeavor to get back to me as soon as possible to enable me conclude my job.

You are advice to contact me with my personal email: barr_andfraser_esq@live.co.uk

Await your prompt response.

Yours in Service,

BARRISTER ANDREAW FRASER ESQ.

PRINCIPAL PARTNERS: Barrister Aidan Walsh., Markus Wolfgang, Mr. John Marvey Esq., Mr. Jerry Smith Esq.
