My Dear Friend,
I feel quite safe dealing with you in this mutual beneficail transaction.
Though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I choose to reach
you through it because it still remains the fastest, surest and most secured
medium of communication. However, this orrespondence is purely private, and
it should be treated as such. I also guarantee you that this deal is hitch
free from all what you may think of. I am 'Mr. Paul Steve Executive Director
incharge of Claims and Indemnity of PRUDENTIAL Insurance Company.
I am contacting you based on Trust and confidentiality that will be attached
to this deal for the benefit of both of us. The Management and the Legal /
Treasury Department of this PRUDENTIAL Insurance Company in a recent
meeting, recommended that the account of ( MR. ROBERT FINKELSTEIN ) who
maintained a Life Assurance Policy, should be declared Dormant and
confisticated hence moving his unclaimed benefits funds to the Treasury
according to our Banking and Financial law. Recently, I came across a very
huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person (MR. ROBERT FINKELSTEIN).
He is foreigner, unfortunately He is now late as he was amongst those that
was Killed in the recent plane crash as you can confirm through this
websitehttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
This man was our client and has a Life Assurance Policy WORTH the sum of
FOURTY TREE Million, United State Dollars (US$43,000.00). Right now, the
fund is lying unclaimed in our custody and there is NO next of kin mentioned
in his file and there is NO HOW we can reach any of his other relatives. All
efforts made by us to establish contacts with any other of his relation has
proved abortive and unsuccessful. His Life Assurance Policy will expire in
the next few months from the date of this letter. Just last week we received
an instruction from Ministry of Social Welfare to forward particulars of all
unclaimed benefits that will expire in the next few months. Upon my personal
finding on this matter, I kept this information secret to myself until now
that I am contacting you.
In view of the fact that the deceased customer is a foreigner (from your
country), it is Officially important for the involvement of a foreigner who
will pose as a next-of-kin.I will use my exalted position in this Insurance
Company to present you as his Next of Kin as you can be his relative, friend
or Cousin and the Money (US$43,000.00) will be Safely transfered into your
own bank account in your country.
Please include your telephone/fax number/ Home Address when replying this
mail and I will give you more information as soon as you indicate your
willingness to assist in this viable transaction.I will use my exalted
position here to get all internal documentations to back up the claims. The
whole Procedures will last only 5 working days to get the fund retrieved
successfully Without trace even in future.

brothers kipper

2. PHONE AND FAX NUMBER
3. HOME ADDRESS/COMPANY'S NAME AND ADDRESS.
4. YOUR AGE AND OCCUPATION

address and telephone number to me via email urgently today so that I will

greatly soonest for cooperating with me in this transaction. After

(50% for you and 50% for me).I await your good response today. Thanks and
