Attention:
On behalf of the Trustees and Executor of the estate of Late Engr. Jurgen
Krugger. I once again try to notify you as my earlier letter was
returnedundelivered. I hereby attempt to reach you again by this same
email address on the WILL. I wish to notify you that late Jurgen Krugger
made you a beneficiary in 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 travelled man, he said he met you sometime in the past or
simply you were nominated to him by one of his numerous friends abroad who
wished you good, I am not too sure again. Jurgen Krugger until his death
was a member of the Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic &
Electrical Engineers and a German property magnate. He was a very
dedicated christian who loved to give out alms to the poor,hungry and
needy. His great philanthropy earned him numerous awards during his life
time. Late Jurgen Krugger died on the 13th of December,2004 and his WILL
is now ready for execution after 4 years of thorough investigations.
According to him, this money is to support your humanitarian/medical
activities and to help the poor and the needy in our society. 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. I hope to hear from you in no distant time.

I await your prompt response and one very important thing I would like to
share with you is that you should remain confidential; please do not
disclose this with anybody. The process is very transparent and
legitimate; therefore ensure that my advice is adhered to at all times
even after you have finalised this transaction. I wish you well as you
prepare to carry out humanitarian activities of the late Engr.Jurgen
Krugger.
