In my search for someone to trust and share this golden business
opportunity that is currently at my disposal, with a view to making success
out of it, I decided to search the Internet Peoples Finder Directory,
where your contact was obtained. However, it is pertinent to introduce my
self formally before going to the details and purpose of this proposal.
I am Dennis Mbassogo, an Attorney at Law, a national of Equatorial
Guinea, practicing in Dubai,United Arab Emirates. May I use this medium to
convey the death of late MORRIS THOMPSON an American who unfortunately
died in plane crash involving Alaska Airlines, Flight 261 which crashed
on January, 2000, including his wife and daughter. See detail on

Before his death he made deposits of Eighteen Million Five Hundred
Thousand United States Dollars (US$18,500,000.00)with FRONTLINE SECURITIES
SERVICES Dubai , United Arab Emirates.
In my capacity as the family lawyer / legal adviser to the late Morris
Thompson, I had access to the classified documents relating to these
deposits. I now wish to source for a foreign partner who will front to
receive this fund on my behalf for our mutual benefit and investment. To
make it much easier there is no record indicating that he nominated any
next of kin while making the lodgements. Since non of his kin or
relative could lay claims to the funds, I, as the family lawyer with your
active connivance would apply and procure all necessary paper work
nominating you as NEXT OF KIN. We have agreed on disburse the fund on this
ratio (30%) for you (60%) for investment while (10%) earmarked for
contigencies.Kindly respond on time to enable us expedite action on the
subject matter since all machinery for a hitch-free transaction is already in
place. NB: This transaction is very confidential and 100%risk free as I
have a copy of his LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT which would be altered to
affix your name as the TRUSTEE & EXECUTOR. This transaction shall be

any breach of Law. Forward your full name, address and telephone number
