Hello Dear,
I am Mr. Lauren Barry and hereby wish to inform you that the business we had in the past is been completed. Though, you had tried to help me transfer the sum of Eighty Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($80,500,000.00) into a foreign account but it failed us. Therefore, I wish to inform you that the above mentioned fund was later transferred through the aid of a foreign partner from the United States. Now, I have to compensate you with the sum of $9.5M which has been arranged in a check written and signed in your favor for trying to assist me in the past despite it failed.
Meanwhile, you should be advised to contact my personal assistant in person of Buya Oloyeh on her details as stated below so that she will help advice you on how you can receive the funds; $9.5M in a check.

What Is This?
This Email with the Subject "Contract/Inheritance Fund!" was
received in one of Scamdex's honeypot email accounts on Sun, 28 May 2017 09:27:39 -0400 and has been classified as a
Advance Fee Fraud/419 Scam Email. The sender shows as Mr. Lauren Barry <sherylhallmark@gmail.com>,
although that address was probably spoofed. We recommend that you do not attempt to contact any persons or organizations referenced in
this email, as you may expose yourself to scammers and, at the very least, you will be added to their email address lists for spam purposes.
Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
