John Trundle January 7 at 9:23pm Report
Dear Wong,

I am Barrister John Trundle, Personal attorney to Late Mr. Frederick M. Wong, a contractor with one of the biggest oil servicing company here in Togo. He died along with his wife Lila C. Wong and 217 other passengers on board the Egypt Air flight that crashed into the Atlantic Ocean off Nantucket island on November 1 1999 with people on board.

I am contacting you to assist me in claiming the sum of US$15.8 million which my late client deposited with a bank here in Togo since you are a foreigner and share the same last name with my deceased client. I know how to go about it, in recommending you to the bank as my client’s next of kin, in line with banking procedures.

Visit the website below for more understanding;

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/502503.stm

Reply me back via my private email address for more detail informations: (barrister.jtrundle@yahoo.com)

Yours Sincerely,
Barrister John Trundle.
Question is, how should I spend my $15.8 million?

Tell him to take a picture holding a sign with your middle name "REVSCENE" on it to prove who he is.

There are literally millions of these scam emails sent out daily and it's nothing new. There's nothing special about this message you got, what was your thought process in creating a new thread on Revscene just to post this instead of hitting delete and going on with your day?

Ask for a picture of himself holding his "Official Lawyers Identification Card" which has his name, skin colour, penis size, and "Law Specialty" on it while balancing a watermelon on his head.

This is strictly business and only to ensure authenticity of his story.

So this douche I did work for ended up not paying me at the end. I get a call about a month later and he says he has $500 of what he owes me.

I meet up with him at a bar and we have a very awkward beer, as I really want to spit in his face.

He says, "don't worry, I'm going to have your money and more, because I'm going to start funding a bunch of projects really soon, and you are in on the ground floor"

He passes me this piece of paper, and it describes the transfer of 10% of 10 million dollars. He describes that he's getting the 10% for aiding in the transfer yada yada yada.

I look at him and say that I need to wait for a Nigerian scam to come true before I get paid? I'll start holding my breath.

Never did get paid.

You should have told him that you work on behalf of the Nigerian and to transfer the funds through you
