help wanted

[jpi]

Dear Friend,

I wish to approach you with a request that would be of immense benefit to both of us. I am an attorney based in Scotland United Kingdom. I want you and I to make some fortune out of a situation that I am obviously left with no other better option. The issue that I am presenting to you is a case of my client that willed a fortune to his only daughter. It is unfortunate that he and his daughter died on the London Bomb attacks on 7 July 2005. The wife died of heart attack on receiving the sad news a week after. I am now faced with a problem of getting a trusted person who I will make the beneficiary that I would pass the fortune to. And according to the law such fortune is supposed to be bequeathed to the government if there is not any relatives or next-of-kin of the decease that would surface for claim of the fortune.

However, I personally dont belong to such school of thought that proposes that such fortune be given to the government because this is cheating and is possible that the top government officials for their own selfish interest could divert the fortune. Because of this I am contacting you to seek your acting as the beneficiary of the will. I am my client attorney and I alone knew about his will. Upon indication of your interests, all I will do is to amend the will by fitting in your name as the supposed next-of-kin and back it up with a sworn affidavit, which automatically became valid. This amendment should be between us and must not leak out to anyone. It is absolutely confidential.

I have complete information of his bitcoin wallet details with an outstanding balance of $48,550,000.00 BTC ($48.550 Million bitcoin). To make you be sure of this, I can provide you with details of his bitcoin to enable you to log on to his account to confirm this balance. I know that you would be apprehensive and feel that this is a big sum, but it does not matter because this is a legacy being passed on to a next-of-kin and you are the available next-of-kin.

As I am not very sure of getting your consent yet on the issue, I prefer not to divulge my full identity so as not to risk being disbarred. Until I am sure of your consent and full cooperation then I will not be afraid to give you my full identity. At this point I want to assure you that your true consent, full cooperation and confidentiality are all that are required to enable us to take full advantage of this golden opportunity.

I shall make representation to the legal courts to facilitate the amendment process within three working days. Since this is a transaction of immense benefit to both of us, I would want that we shared all expenses according to our agreed sharing ratio of the fortune. The sharing ratio shall be 60% BTC for me and 40% BTC for you. This shall also be applicable to all expenditures that would be incurred in the course of the transaction because I wouldn't want either of us to feel cheated. Please note that this is a legal and risk free bitcoin transaction that does not in anyway hamper the monetary laws of your country. It is an inheritance fund.

If you are interested to work with me, please provide me with your bitcoin address. On completion of this, I will send you a copy of the amended WILL which you will e-mail to the Bitcoin authorities with a back up letter written by your good self requesting for the release of the fund to you. I will also write to the Bitcoin central bank as the legal representative of my client before his demise, ordering for the transfer of the fund to you, as the beneficiary of his will.

I will appreciate your urgent response in this regard. Thanks for your anticipated cooperation. You can as well reach me by sendig 10 BTC to 1Jv3APkm3APMHexVGVzxCk4NCGUy4Csm67

Yours faithfully,
Kirk Murdock.

Please think of the children.

You can provide me with details of his bitcoin what?

[morpheus]

This post is hysterical! I almost feel like sending the 10 btc for making me laugh so hard.

Best parts:

I have complete information of his bitcoin wallet details with an outstanding balance of $48,550,000.00 BTC ($48.550 Million bitcoin).

So is that 48 million bitcoins or $48 million dollars worth of bitcoin. Both being impossible.

On completion of this, I will send you a copy of the amended WILL which you will e-mail to the Bitcoin authorities with a back up letter written by your good self requesting for the release of the fund to you. I will also write to the Bitcoin central bank as the legal representative of my client before his demise, ordering for the transfer of the fund to you, as the beneficiary of his will.

Bitcoin authorities? Bitcoin central bank? Ha!

please do so, i'd really like to see "$48.550 Million bitcoin" (is it $ or bitcoin now, choose 1 please) with my own eyes,
besides that, i'd like to know how to log on someones bitcoin account.

I will also write to the Bitcoin central bank as the legal representative of my client

good luck with that

You can as well reach me by sendig 10 BTC to

guess you'll have to send some coins to the Bitcoin central bank too, to reach them,
it's probably easier to reach your dead client.


don't try to scam a system you don't understand, read some papers first.  

[Mahkul]

This thread and the hackerking one are the funniest here now.

[ribuck]

I don't think you should dismiss this out-of-hand as a scam. I sent the requested 10 BTC and have already received an email copy of the WILL so that I can send it on to the bitcoin authorities together with my endorsement.

If anyone has an email address for any of the the bitcoin authorities, please send them to me by PM. I'm having a bit of difficulty with that part. Thanks in advance!

[sirius]

Duh, copypasta.

[chris200x9]

Hey how did you get my 48 million btc wallet information?! Also I'm not dead you insensitive clod!

[davout]

I will also write to the Bitcoin central bank

Haven't gotten anything so far

All the people taking this blatant joke at face value = fail!

It's an imitation of the old nigerian inheritance emails with a British twist of sarcastic humour.

[Stephen Gornick]

Yes, it's a scam, ... but it's making money!  0.1 BTC so far.

im sure a few of those posts were serious. you don't type a long post correcting somebody of their mistakes/logic errors when you think it's a joke.

That email probably took 30 minutes to write.  At that rate, it would take 250 hours to generate 50 bitcoins, or about 10.4 days.
