A request from John Grisham
 
You have to laugh! These people never give up, do they? But it's amusing that they have progressed from the Finance Minister of Nigeria to a well-known American thriller-writer. The giveaway, of course, is that it's far better-written than the books of the real John Grisham.

Dear friend,


I wish to seek for your consent to present you as the beneficiary to the total sum of US$35,200,000.00 in the intent of a deceased.

The deceased has no written "WILL, and he was the only survival of his family before he past away few month ago. As his Attorney, I decided to do this so that you can claim the inheritance as his next of kin for you and i to share before government get to know about it since he has no written WILL and family member who can take over the inheritance.

Can you handle this? Kindly get back to me for further discussion if you are interested. I hope to hear from you.
reply me back by email: barr.grisham-esq@qq.com

Respectfully yours
Barrister John Grisham

Brian, there is a belief that they are not quite so dumb.
If their come on is literate and credible they have difficulty in sorting out likely marks, this way they can be reasonably sure that that only real dummies respond.
Best wishes,
Jim

You mean... I shouldn't have given the nice Mr Grisham all my bank details? Am I not going to share the 35 million dollars with him, from my relative who pasta way few month ago? :eek:

This is a patent fraud. The deceased lack all intent.
