He left the sum of Five Million, Dollars (USD$5,000.000.00) to you in the Codicil and last testament to his WILL. This may sound strange and unbelievable to you, but it is real and true.

I think this may not be legitimate because it did not originate from Nigeria.

Now that's interesting. Where all does the barrister practice law, last week he sent me an email telling me a good friend of mine in Kenya had passed away and they needed to expedite his estate and transfer funds to me (some absurd amount that I cannot remember). However, my first contact with Mr. Branca was when he was working for the FBI and wanted me to contact him reference a friend who had passed away in Johannesburg before he could make it back to the US and him leaving me a huge sum of money. <sigh> I know, I have a lot of friends with lots of money that have died. But don't weep for me!
