From: t_bruckley@mchsi.com (THOMAS BRUCKLEY ESQ.)
Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2007 11:56:33 +0000
Subject: BEQUEST.
INTERNATIONAL FINANCE CORPORATION.
4 Millbank, London SW1P 3JA, United Kingdom.
Hello: SIR/MADAM
My names are THOMAS JAMES BRUCKLEY Esq., a Senior Executive to the
International Finance Corporation, UK. I am writing in respect of a Foreign
Investment Portfolio with ID.IFC/EKF1521329BDC35 held at our treasury with
accumulated interest valued at Ten million eight Hundred and twenty thousand
dollars ($10,820,000USD)owned and serviced by Mr Morris Thompson, an American
citizen, and one of Alaska's native and prominent leaders and businessmen. He
was also a one-time special assistant to the Secretary of Interior during the
Nixon years. Mr Morris Thompson was also a former president and Chief
Executive Officer of Doyon Ltd., a Native corporation formed in 1971 as part
of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. The corporation has 12.5 million
acres of land, making it the largest private landowner in the United States.
On the 31st January, 2000, Mr Morris Thompson was involved in an air-plane
crash. All occupants of the Alaska Airlines Flight 261 unfortunately lost
their lives. Read more about this on visiting this webpage:

I have made several enquiries to the United States Embassy to locate any of
the extended relatives and this has been unsuccessful, I have also sent
letters to his address in Alaska but it was never answered.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name
over the Internet to locate any member of her family. In view of this I got
your contact through a google search on foreigners. Since I have been
unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over the past 6 years now, I seek
your consent to present you as the Next of Kin to the deceased since you are a
foreign person and can receive the funds on my behalf so that the proceeds of
this Investment portfolio valued at ($10,820,000USD) can be paid to you for us
to share 50% will be for me as the initiator of the deal and 50% to you as my
foreign partner whom will receive the funds, or else the funds will get
confiscated or declared unserviceable by some unscrupulous British officers at
the IFC.
This is because the IFC constitution prohibits such investment portfolio to
last 7 years. Your nationality and area of specialization does not matter, as
all modalities have been concluded to present you as the next of kin and
consequently, the beneficiary of the fund.
N.B:
INHERITANCE is not a crime all over the world, but may be a crime only when
you did not follow the Rules of the International Law of Inheritance. In this
transaction we shall follow strictly all the rules of the International Law of
Inheritance as I have obtained all the necessary documents from the
appropriate authorities to prove his death and that the inheritance/fund is
legitimate and genuine. I will log into the IFC treasury system at my office
and key in your data as the Next of Kin to Mr Morris Thompson, this means that
you have all rights to the funds and no law shall find you guilty both at
local and international because the treasury blueprints will clearly state
your data as the true beneficiary and next of kin, so this transaction is 100%
risk and hitch free. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you and me from any breach of the law both at
local and international.
Please note, I am the only one aware of this transaction in my office and I
have all legal documents of my late customer in my briefcase, I want you to
take this as top secret and very confidential. Please do not inform any third
party about this so that we can successfully execute this transaction under a
legitimate arrangement that will protect you and me from any breach of the law
both at local and International levels.
If you are ready to give me your full cooperation then confirm your interest
by contacting me through my personal email below. After then I will furnish
you with an adequate detail of how you shall receive the funds on my behalf. I
assure and promise you that this transaction will be executed and concluded
legally as quickly as possible.
Upon your sincere interest on this, kindly please write back to my private and
personal email address:bruckleyconsults@yahoo.co.uk. I look forward to it.
Thanks and Regards.
God Bless you.
THOMAS J. BRUCKLEY ESQ.
