Dear Friend,
My name is Mr.Earl Spencer.I am the Personal Assistant to the great Atlanta Physician and Philanthropists Of Your Country Late Mr.G.Brumley.
Late Mr.G.Brumley and all his family were among the victims that died a charter plane crash on Mount Kenya. The flight crashed into the snow-capped, 16,355-foot Lenana Peak on Mount Kenya destroying the entire planes and killing passengers on board.Late George Brumley died on the month of July 2003 at the age of 68.
My Late Client Was a widely travelled man and devoted most of his time and wealth to charity and humanitarian work.

I have made several enquiries to locate any of my client,s extended relatives but this proved Unsuccessful.After all these several unsuccessful attempts,since it's not compulsory that the next-of-kin must be a blood relation to the deceased, hence I contacted you because you are from the same country with my late client,Be informed that a next-of-kin can be anybody,friends or organization.
Presently,the Bank where the deceased (my client) had a Deposit valued at Five Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$5,100.000.00 )issued me a notice to provide the next-of-kin to my client to receive its benefit or have the account confiscated, so I have contacted you to assist me in repatriating this benefit left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Bank.
To this effect, I now seek your consent to present you to the Bank as the next of kin of the deceased (my Client) so that the proceeds of this Deposit valued at Five Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$5,100.000.00 ) can be paid to you and then you and I can share the money; 50% to me and 40% to you, while 10% should be given to any Orphanage Home.I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me with the below details immediately you acknowledge the good receipt of this message.You are to contact me at earlspencer_esq@myway.com immediately providing the following information:to enable me start the processing.
