Dear Friend,

I write to seek your cooperation as my foreign partner and your assistance
to enable me to own properties and invest in the stable economy of your
country. I apologize if this mail message does not suit your personal or

My names are REV ROBERT JAMES KIRTON an attorney to a deceased Immigrant

On the 25th of July 2000, my client, his wife and their two Children died in
the Air France concord plane crash bound for New York in their plan for a
world cruise,


Since then, I have been managing his properties here in the U.K. and some of
his properties, which he put out for sale. Which I monitored the payment as
his attorney, has been bought and paid for. Now the money paid was deposited
into his Local account here. I have contacted you to assist in repatriating
the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated
or declared unserviceable by his bank.

Particularly, the bank has issued me a notice to provide any of his next of
kin or have the account confiscated within a short time. My late client has
an account valued at 15.5 million dollars. Since I have been unsuccessful in
locating the relatives for some time now, and with the bank giving me
deadline, I now seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the
deceased, so that the proceeds of this account valued at 15.5 million
dollars can be paid to you and then you, and I can share the money. 50% to
me amounting to US$7,750,000.00 dollars and 40% for you amounting to
US$6,200.000.00 and 10% amounting to US$1,550,000.00 for miscellaneous
expenses that might arise. I have all necessary information that can be used
to back up any Claim we may make.

All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see this deal
through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Trust me, as
his attorney; this is a risk-free relationship.

Send me your full names and address, telephone and fax numbers to enable us
discuss further about this transaction.

A swift acknowledgement on the receipt of this mail would be appreciated.

Please reply to my confidential email:robertjameskirton@excite.com


I remain obliged,
