Subject: HOW ARE U MY FRIEND

Hounslow TW2 1DL UK
Dear Good Friend,
The inspiration to contact you is simply divine providence; I am making this
proposition because I have to seek the partnership of a resource person to
help me realize this project. I John Moore, esq. a solicitor and investment
consultant based in London, united kingdom.
I was attending a business luncheon in Berlin, Germany and I got introduced
to the renowned German businessman and property mogul, Mr. Andreas Schranner
(of the blessed memory).
He engaged my services as attorney and investment consultant and my primary
assignment was to spearhead his investment forays in the United Kingdom and
Spain. Three months later I invited him to London and under my professional
guidance and based on my advice he made a fixed deposit of USD$77 million
united state dollars at a Spanish financial institution. for 5yearsnd upon
maturity I made effort to contact my client Mr.Andreas Schranner, I could
not reach him or any member of his family. I was forced to travel to Germany
and there I got the tragic news that on July 25 2000, my client Mr. Andreas
schranner, his wife Maria, their daughter Eich and husband Christian and
their
two children perished in the Air France Concorde flight AF4590 New York
bound flight;

I have made efforts to locate any member of his family since then with
strong biological links to my late client without success. The search to
find a close relation is one that has consumed time and resources.
The Spanish financial institution is asking me to either present a next of
kin to late Mr. Andreas Schranner or forfeit the deposit.
My proposal is to package, present you as next of kin to late Mr.Andreas
Schranner and process the fixed deposit and transfer custody to you for our
mutual benefit. My capacity as solicitor/investment Consultant to my late
client gives me the discretion to package and transfer the deposit to you. I
will give you 30% for your effort, 70%for me it will amount to injustice if
I do not take this decisive step To secure this deposit, and invest it. The
late schranner was also a friend in addition to our business relationship. I
will wait for your reaction and response and then together we can jumpstart
this project and nurture it to reality.
Note to complete this you will need to visit the financial instution where
funds are deposited to clear the funds.
I await your respond
DAVID POPE ESQ
