NOTIFICATION OF BEQUEST On behalf of the Trustees and Executor of the estate of Late Engr.Fernando Sergio Morales; I once again try to notify you as my earlier letter returned undelivered. I hereby attempt to reach you again by this same email address on the WILL. I wish to notify you that late Engr. Fernando Sergio Morales  made you a beneficiary to his WILL. He left the sum of Six Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$6,100.000.00 ) 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. Being a widely traveled man, he must have been in contact with you in the past or simply you were recommended to him by one of his numerous friends abroad who wished you good. Engr.Fernando Sergio Morales until his death was a member of the Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic & Electrical Engineers. He had a very good heart and loved to give out.  His great philanthropy earned him numerous awards during his life time. Late Engr.Fernando Sergio Morales died on the 13th day of December, 2005 at the age of 80 years, and his WILL is now ready for execution. According to him this money is to support your humanitarian activities and to help the poor and the needy in our society. Please if I reach you this time as I am hopeful, endeavor to get back to me as soon as possible to enable me conclude my job. I hope to hear from you in no distant time through the email address below.
