Engr.
Jürgen Krügger was a very dedicated Christian who loved to give out. His
great philanthropy earned him numerous awards during his life time. Late Engr.
Jürgen Krügger died on the 13th day of December, 2004 at the age of 80
years, and his WILL is now ready for execution. According to him this money is
to support your humanitarian activities and to help the poor and the
needy in our society.
We want to acknowledge the receipt of your email in this chamber and also want
you to know that you have absolute right to reject this WILL as much as you
have the right to accept it as well. If you wish to turn it down then let me
know so I can send you a WILL rejection form to fill and revert back to this
office. I am not going to impose it on you but just doing my job here.
I
can imagine that the late Engr. Jürgen Krügger must have known that you will
put the money to good use for the less privileged of which he was aware that
you can achieve, that is why he selected you. Also, understand that I don't
know you neither have I met you before, but my contacting you is based on the
recommendation of late Engr. Jürgen Krügger.
Be further informed that these funds will not be released to you without
some proper identification. I have never met you before like I said and to be
able to carry out our duties effectively as sole executors of the WILL of late
Engr. Jürgen Krügger, We must be convinced that you are who the testament says
you are.
And please re-confirm to us through the above stated fax or via email;
your full contact details to include your full name and address telephone and
fax number (if any) and if you have moved to a new address then indicate both
the new and old one for my verification with what I have in my file. Any
difference or discrepancies in the information provided by you will mean that I
am contacting the wrong person and I will stop all communication with you out
rightly.
Your
information would be taken to the probate division of the International Court
of Justice for verification. After the confirmation, the probate division would
now release your letter of administration for claims to this bequest/funds.
This document as well as the Certificate of Deposit issued by the Deposit Bank
to Engr. Jürgen Krügger when the funds were deposited by him will then be
released to you, this will give you the legal backing to receiving these funds.
We sincerely hope that the above requirement will be sent to us sooner
than later for us to proceed with the documentation. And note that we cannot
send any document to you until we are fully convinced that we have the true
beneficiary,and that we also have a period of (14) working days to conclude
this so I can move on to the next beneficiary on the WILL of my late
client.
I
await your full details for verification.
Yours in Service,
BARRISTER DAVID SMITH ESQ.

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.
