NOTIFICATION OF BEQUEST:
On behalf of the Trustees and Executor of the estate of Late Mr. Edwin
Gabriel, I once again try to notify you as my earlier letter was
returned undelivered. I hereby attempt to reach you again by this same
email address on the WILL. I wish to notify you that late Mr. Edwin
Gabriel made you a beneficiary to his WILL. He left the sum of Ten
Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$10,500.000.00 ) to you in the
codicil and last testament to his will.
This may sound strange and unbelievable to you, but it is real and
true. Being a widely travelled man, he must have been in contact with you
in the past or simply you were nominated to him by one of his numerous
friends abroad who wished you good. Mr. Edwin Gabriel until his death was
a member of the Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic &
Electrical Engineers. He was a very dedicated Christian who loved to give
out. His great philanthropy earned him numerous awards during his life
time. Late Mr. Edwin Gabriel died on the 16th day of February 2004 at the
age of 90 years and his WILL is now ready for execution. According to him
this money is to support his Christian activities (may his soul rest with
the Lord) and to help the poor and needy.
Please if I reach you as I am hopeful, endeavour to get back to me as
soon as possible to enable me conclude my job. I hope to hear from you in
no distant date.
Yours in His service,
Frank Brian Esq.
I wonder if I am one of Mr Edwins “christian activities” or “the poor and needy”.
Gimme a break.





I am so happy for you!
Now you can buy this great bridge I have for sale…..

Fantastic – all our worries are surely over with Ten
Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$10,500.000.00 ) coming your way – flights to Australia have never been so easy – or flying your friend from Australia over to see you….

I’d go with “poor and needy” — likely to up the total a bit.

But it says “it’s real and true”. Why do you have to be all pessimistic – I don’t think Frank Brian Esq. would lie.
Would he?

I’m glad they added the 500 hundred to the 10 million…I keep hearing Dr. Evil’s voice from Austin Powers saying this number!
