Using 10.6 million Pounds Sterling as bait, this fellow first says he is withholding the name of the person who left the money. He then goes on to say I “bear the surname identity”.

That means my family name is the same as the deceased. Now that is an obvious advantage if I were really to inherit some money!

But, he does not actually say my name, does he?

That way this message fits anyone who gets it. That is obviously an advantage for him. That way he will get more people to answer this message.

Take note that he is using a telephone number with the international code for Great Britain.

This is a further variation of “I have cancer and a pile of cash to give away” kind. It has been adapted to look as though it is from someone from the UK. The “British Rail” quote is quite funny though.

I am the above named person but now undergoing medical treatment in London,England. I am married to Dr. Richard Cox who worked with British Railway Commission in Chelsea England for over a decade before he died on 5th of July in the year 2003. We were married for fifteen years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for two weeks. Before his death he made a vow to use his wealth for the down trodden and the less privileged in the society.

Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of £18 Million (Eighteen Million US Dollars) with one Finance House .
Presently, this money is still with the Finance House.

Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next 150 days due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke which has impeded my speech.Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to an individual or better still a God fearing person who will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want an individual that will use this to fund and provide succor to poor and indigent persons,orphanages, and widows and for propagating peace in the universal. I understand that blessed is the hand that giveth.

I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not inclined to helping poor persons and I do not want my husbands hard earned money to be misused or spent in the manner in which my late husband did not specify.

I do not want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner, hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom of the Almighty. I do not need any elephone communication in this regard because of my health, and because of the presence of my husbands relatives around me always. I do not want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Finance House . I will also issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the original beneficiary of this fund. I want you to always pray for me.

My happiness is that I lived a life worthy of emulation. Whosoever that wants to serve the Almighty must serve him with all his heart and mind and always be prayerful all through your life.Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for an ndividual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act according to specification confidentiality and mutual trust entails by this business.Some personal questions?Are you married?How old are you?Your Phone Number/Fax? What kind of work / business do you do?Note: please contact me through this e-mail address or i will not see your reply because i don’t normaly check this box ok.

Somehow I don’t think she has managed to achieve that this time.

This is just a “lady with cancer and a pile of cash to give away” kind of e-mail.

There has been a decrease in the numbers of lottery e-mails during the last weeks. I doubt that it means that there is a shift away from that type of scam e-mail. I am sure we will be seeing it in circulation for some time to come.
