Compliment dear,
Do you know late Dr. Jonathan Mann once a human right activist on HIV/AIDS who died with his family in Swissair crash in 1998? The CNN webpage below will tell you more about my client anyway; http://www.cnn.com/health/9809/03/dr.mann.profile I was his personal accountant while I was working with Barclays bank Plc here in London, United Kingdom.
My proposition to you is to seek your aid in partnership to present you as the next-of-kin of my late client, so that BARCLAYS BANK will pay you the sum of US$30 million into any bank account you are going to provide. Then we will share the amount on a mutual agreed-fifty/ fifty percent to enable me use part of my own share to carry out my wife kidney transplanting surgery operation. This will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
However, if you are willing to save my wife soul kindly get back to me ASAP to enable me give you the details/ operational method on how to proceed with this project. This venture will establish a verbal telephone communication to each other and this will bring you into a much better picture of the deal.
EMAIL BACK via asmith1@portugalmail.pt
I wait to hear from you.
Mr. Alex Smith.
