Email #1, from Elena:

Hello

My name is Mrs Elena Domnita from Romania, wife of the late Sgt.Tom Balinisteanu who died on March 2nd 2014 when their helicopter crashed in eastern Romania while searching for a missing fighter jet.

Feel free to open this web file to believe me than treating my message as scam.

https://www.rferl.org/a/romania-militar ... 33611.html

My late husband made a fixed deposit of five million, eight hundred thousand dollars with a Financial company which i am in control of all the documentation.

I want to recommend you as the beneficiary to the funds. I cannot stand to make the claims because of my late husband family members. Reason is: (1) I have no (CHILD) for him. (2) I have no legally marriage certificate with him, (3) To Create an eye brown to the Romanian government, questioning how a soldier can come across such a huge amount.

I never want his family members to come for it due to the fact that they did not support my marriage with him. For your information, i have taking my time to consult to know what it will takes to have the funds in your Country. I have the money to get all the legal documents but you will only spend $200 for the bank stamp duty. That is all you will spend.

In this regard, I want you to know that this message is strictly for mutual benefit between you and me.
Please send me an email confirming that you can be trusted and ready to work with me. I have a lawyer to perfect all the necessary documents.

Best Regards
Mrs <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>.
