Wow! Why all the different e-mail addresses in different countries? You must be quite a traveler, eh? I guess being a barrister has its perks?

On behalf of the Trustees and Executor of the estate of Late Engr. Juriaan Kugger. I once again try to notify you as my earlier letter were returned undelivered.

This is good news! No, not the part about the Late Freddy Krugger, or whatever his name is... Thanks for letting me know I am not receiving all your other letter. My mom has been writing to me and all her letter were returned, too. Personally, I think it has to do with her use of plurals. But never mind that.

I wish to notify you that late Engr. Juriaan Kugger made you a beneficiary to his WILL.

Okay, I don't mean to offend you or anything, but I am suspicious (a little) about all this, because you keep referring to Jurrian as a 'Late Engineer.' Every engineer I ever met was totally early to everything. I mean these guys are punctuality freaks. Once an engineer friend showed up a day early for a party at our house. Sure, they look at their shoes when they talk to you, but they are never late.

He left the sum of Thirty Million, One Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$30,100.000.00) to you in the Codicil and last testament to his WILL.

Holy crap, that's a lot of money. I feel bad. I didn't get you anything.

This may sound strange and unbelievable to you, but no doubt it is a life reality and true.

Your cunning use of the term 'life reality' clinches it for me. I know you are legit.

Being a widely traveled 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 well and good.

Oh no... you don't understand. Krugger and I were like this. We sat behind each other in Great Issues in Jr. high, studied Chemistry together (I invented Cialis), were drinking buddies until the age of 9, and shared the driving across the USA on a unicycle. I am the right person.

Engr.Juriaan Kugger until his death was a member of the Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic & Electrical Engineers. Please if I reach you as I am hopeful, endeavor to get back to me as soon as possible to enable me conclude my job. You are advice to contact me with my personal Email: f_barrandreawesq@live.com
Await your prompt response.

Well, here I am. Send me the money. I suppose all I have to do is divulge everything personal about myself? By the way I have $25,000 hidden between my matresses, and I am never home between 8am and 5pm every day.

Yours in Service,

BARRISTER ANDREAW FRASER ESQ.
PRINCIPAL PARTNERS: Barrister Aidan Walsh.Esq Markus

Be sure to say hi to Marvey for me.

  2. Just got one of these letters today on the business website. Funny thing is that I am a member of IEEE.
    I wonder how many people actually reply back. Perhaps we could run an engineering analysis.....
