i just got this in the mail

I am Edward ____, the Auditor General, Crown Investment Limited UK.
In the course of my auditing, I discovered a floating fund in an account which was opened in 1990 belonging to a dead foreigner late Mr. K.P. ___ who died in 1999. Every effort to track and member of his family or next of kin has since failed; hence I got in contact with you to stand as his next of kin since you bear the same last name ( Just so you know he got my last name completely wrong). He died leaving no heir or a will.

My intention is to transfer this sum $15.5 M in the aforementioned account to a safe account overseas. I am therefore proposing that you quietly partner with me and provide an account or set up a new one that will serve the purpose of receiving this fund. For your assistance in this venture, I am ready to part with 30% of the entire funds to you. After going through the deceased person's record and file, I discovered that:
1. No one has operated this account since 1999
2. He died without an heir; hence the money has been floating.
3. No other person knows about this account and there was no known beneficiary.


If I do not remit this money, urgently it would be forfeited and subsequently converted to company's fund which will benefit on the director of my firm. This money can be approved to you legally as with all necessary documents approvals in your name. However, you would be required to show some proof of claim which I will provide with and also guide you on how to make your application.

Please do give me a reply so that i can send you detailed information on modalities of my proposition. I completely trust you to keep this proposition absolutely confidential. Kindly forward your telephone and fax numbers where I can reach you easily. I look forward to your prompt response.


this was in my mail, i swear

The ugliest ones are deliberate missed calls in the UK. Got one, called back then realised it was an 0845 number, which means that it costs a bomb per minute - hung up after one minute (put on hold) but the damage was done. Stupid me...*
