Good afternoon Miss Young,

Some time ago I received this email.

Mark Ferguson
Attn: Jeremy,
 I  write this letter to you based on my recent findings and situation at hand. Understandably, I know this letter  will   surprise you because we've never met. 
I am Mr. Mark Ferguson,  a Real Estate Consultant and  Broker.   
The purpose of this letter is to ask for your utmost cooperation in procuring my client's Bonded Fund that was lodged with a Building Society in Europe. My client,  named Mr. Hubert Jeremy, died without any WILL. And till date no one has been able to locate any of his relatives despite several attempts by the building society to contact his  heir.
The deceased  owned assets  valued Thirty-Three million, Three hundred Thousand ($33.3m) United States Dollars approximately. And the Building society  has issued a notice to provide the Next of Kin or have the account confiscated within the next few months.
I request your consent,  to present you as the next of kin of the deceased, since you  bear same last name. In so doing, the proceeds of this account can be paid to you and then we can share the money in an agreed ratio depending on your contributions to the project.What I need from you is  confidence, trust, and honest cooperation to enable us reach our goal without any breach of the law.   
Kindly get back to me by email  if you are interested in my proposal, so we may discuss the modalities for the Inheritance and areas of investments.
Thanks.
 
Yours sincerely,
MARK FERGUSON

Dear Jeremy,
 
I received your mail indicating your interest to partner with me to collect this fund rather than allowing it revert to the state as unclaimed money. I also received family tree history from you.
 
However, be informed that I contacted you in the first place because you have the same family name with the deceased and can stand as his next of kin, since he died intestate. He did not write a Will. I also believe it will provide me with the opportunity of keeping his memory alive by opening a foundation in his name to help the indigent people of the society. Having received your reply, I am highly elated that at last the laudable dream of launching a foundation in his name can be achieved with your full cooperation.
 
All what is to be done now is to begin documentation on your behalf at the Probate Registry in line with the rules and regulation of United Kingdom to
authenticate you as the next of kin to the deceased. All arrangement for smooth
conclusion have been perfected.
 
Therefore indicate your willingness to partake in this project to enable me give you detailed mail on what we need to do to achieve success.
Your urgent reply is awaited,
Regards,
Mark Ferguson,

That was followed by several other documents two of which are attached followed. When pressed for verifiable documents he was unable (possibly unwilling) to produce them.
 
It is my view that Mr. Ferguson is a dishonest individual who should  be stopped and prominently placed on 419.bittenus.com so that he will not continue to scam other individuals.
 
Now that I have challenged him to produce verifiable documents he is no longer responding to my emails.
 
His other email address system is: mfgk1@yahoo.co.uk

The best words I have for future respondents on receipt of such letters as generated by Mr Ferguson and his ilk, is to repeatedly ask for verifiable third party confirmation capacity. Without that being supplied, treat the project as a scam and back away until otherwise proven. And don't supply any financial information - ever.
