FROM THE PRIVATE DESK OF;
CHARLES PATRICK B. (BARRISTER AT LAW).
I am Barrister Charles Patrick B., a South African residing and practicing Law in United Kingdom. I specialise in family law, will, probate and tax saving strategies. On May 12 2010, one of my senior clients MR. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN a DUTCH died in a plane crash that happened in libya.
Here is a link for your view: LINK REMOVED

MR. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN stated his wife as his next of kin but unfortunately she died also in the crash along with Mr. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN and their three children. I am the executor of Mr. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN's will and have shared his assets and properties to his extended family members and they have gone since December 2010. But Mr. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN deposited the sum of $4.5 million United States Dollars in a fixed deposit account in a bank in United Kingdom not known to anybody.
On December 15th 2014 the bank wrote me as his lawyer/executor to bring along the next of kin/beneficiary of Mr. VANGEERAARD HUSSEN to inherit his funds (US$4.5m). I have therefore decided to contact you to present you as the next of kin/beneficiary to Mr. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN to enable you receive the fund on our behalf as Mr. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN spouse and dependant all died in the plane crash with him. All the documents required to claim this funds will be prepared by me in the High court of London. I will forward to you all these documents required to claim this funds.
All I need from you is to indicate your interest to be the next of kin/beneficiary to MR. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN and I will present it to the bank. This is 100% legitimate. When you receive the money in your account I will come over to your country for the sharing as follows; 30% for you and 65% for me. The remaining 5% will be set aside for expenses that will be incurred by both parties during the course of this transfer to your account. As the fiduciary/trusted representative of the deceased, and as the manager of his assets, properties and financial affairs when Mr. VAN GEERAARD HUSSEN was alive i have absolute duty to properly administer the estate for its beneficiary. When I receive your positive reply I will furnish you with my full name, address and telephone number. Await your response.
Best regards,
Charles.

The funny thing about these is that there must be people out there that fall for them because if there wasn't they wouldn't waste their time sending them out.
