Dr. George Brumley as his next of kin that was why I contacted you and
proposed it as a deal between us.
Meanwhile, Official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my
Bank as the next of kin was in the name of his wife. Based on that, No one
will ever come forward to claim itI will like to seek foryour
permission as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Dr.George W.Brumley
so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not be use for financing
weapons which will further enhance the courses of war in the world in general.

for me and 40% for you and 5% for Expenses Incurred in the course of the
