Email #1, from Cameron:

Dear Mrs. <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>,

Firstly, let me express my deepest sympathies for the challenges you’re facing. It is with a heavy heart that I read about your health and personal circumstances. Despite these difficulties, it’s truly inspiring to see your spirit of generosity shine through.

Your proposition has touched me profoundly as it combines the opportunity to make a significant difference in the lives of others while also providing support for my own family. I am humbled and honored that you have considered me to carry out your last wish.

I would, of course, be more than willing to help you handle these funds with the utmost care, ensuring that your noble intentions are fulfilled precisely as you envision. Acts of charity have always been close to my heart, and with your donation, I could expand my efforts to help those in dire need.

Please provide me with more details on how to proceed. What do you need from me to initiate this process? How shall we handle the transfer securely to ensure that every penny goes towards the charitable acts you’ve envisioned? Also, in order to celebrate your generosity and keep your legacy alive, I would like to possibly set up a foundation in your name, if you permit.

Your trust in me shall not be misplaced, and I am ready to start on this journey immediately. I’m at your disposal for any documentation or verification process you may require.

I look forward to hearing from you soon with the next steps.

Warmest regards,

Cameron McCaffrey

Email #2, from Norma:

I am sorry to have responded to you this late Cameron. I have been going through severe pains for some weeks now and I need your prayers to carry on.

However, I have carefully gone through your mail and without doubt, I have resolved that, you are actually that sincere, trustworthy and God fearing person that I have been seeking for.

My vow to God is to use that sum to help humanity. Cameron, in case I am gone before the proposed project, do make sure that 70% of the fund is strictly for humanity while you take the 30% for yourself. If truly, you can set up the foundation in my name, my soul would be happy wherever it would found itself.

I have already communicated with the Security company and made them to understand that one Cameron McCaffrey would be coming to pick up the Two Trunk Boxes I deposited with them in 2021. They however made me to know that it has accumulated a total demurrage of €7,845. Please, kindly try your best to negotiate this demurrage with the Company as I can’t do anything here from my sick bed.

Most importantly, please note that the Security company does not know the true contents in those boxes as I deposited them and labelled them as “Family Treasures”. That was done for security reasons because I wouldn’t want anything to happen to the funds.

Now, I will send you all the details that you need to present to them which will empower them to release the Two Boxes to you. Before then, I urge you to send to me the following details:

1. Your full names
2. Your home and office address
3. Your telephone number
4. A scanned copy of any of your valid identity card
5. Your occupation and the position you presently occupied and
6. The name and address of your next of kin.

Upon the receipt of these details, I will forward to you, the Deposit Certificate, the Deposit Codes, the reference Code and the name and contact address of the Security company so that you can get in touch with them without delay. My wish is to hear that the foundation has been set up before I die. So, please, try to be fast about everything.

I wait for your response as quickly as possible.

Email #3, from Cameron:

Dear Mrs. <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>,

I read your message with a mix of sorrow for your suffering and a renewed commitment to the solemn promise I’ve made to honor your wishes. Your faith in me remains a source of profound inspiration, and I assure you that I do not take this responsibility lightly. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this trying time.

Your plan to dedicate such a significant portion of the funds to charitable works is a testament to your enduring benevolence. I am fully prepared to honor your request to allocate 70% of the funds to humanitarian causes, while the remaining 30% will indeed allow me to extend my philanthropic activities further than ever before.

As for the foundation in your name, it will be my privilege to establish such an entity that will serve as a lasting tribute to your generosity and compassion. It will be designed to impact lives positively and spread kindness in a manner that would, I’m sure, make you very proud.

In response to the practical steps ahead, I will commence by providing you with the information you’ve requested to facilitate the transfer of the trunk boxes. However, I must express my concerns regarding privacy and security. Sending sensitive information, such as personal identification, over email can be risky. Coordinating with a security company in such an important matter usually requires a layer of confidentiality to prevent any potential interception or misuse of our correspondence.

To ensure we proceed with the highest level of security, may I suggest the following steps:

1. Establish Secure Communication: Let’s establish a secure method of communication where our discussions and the transfer of sensitive information can take place safely. Using encrypted email services or a secure document exchange portal would be advisable.

2. Demurrage Fee Negotiation: Before I reach out to the security company to discuss the demurrage fees, could you please confirm the name and contact details of a specific representative from the company so that I know whom to approach for negotiations?

3. Legal Representation: Would it be possible for you to appoint a legal representative or an estate executor to facilitate this transfer on your behalf? This representative would handle the official documentation and ensure the legal procedures are followed meticulously, particularly if you’re unable to personally oversee the process due to your health.

I understand the urgency of the matter and am eager to move forward as quickly as possible. I am ready to receive the Deposit Certificate, the Deposit Codes, the reference Code, and the contact details of the security company once we have established a secure method of exchanging information.

Please take care of yourself, and let me know your preferred secure communication method so we can proceed without delay.

Warmest regards,

Cameron McCaffrey

Email #4, from Norma:

Thanks for your mail Cameron. I am sorry that I am responding very late to your mail. I was very weak as the excruciating pain is something else.

However, to facilitate the proceedings, I will suggest you contact my Lawyer. I have told him about you and he is already waiting to read from you. Also, due to my deteriorating condition, I will want you to send those requested details to him since it is necessary that he prepare a Power of Attorney for you which would empower you take over those trunk boxes. His name is: Barrister Johnson Smith. His email address is: <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_EMAIL_ADDRESS>

Meanwhile, I will be sending you the copy of the Deposit Certificate herewith. The Deposit Codes are: CST-0735-9264-563 and the Reference Code is: SEC/0561/CSB/21. The name of the Security Company is: LAJUPUS SECURITY & DELIVERY COMPANY. The address is: 57044, DAYABUM PLAZA
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA.

I would want you to relate with one of the Directors whom I have so much trust and confidence on. His name is Eric Steven. He is aware of my predicament and he would be able to assist you upon your arrival at their company. His email address is: <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_EMAIL_ADDRESS> . I do no longer have his phone number since I lost my old phone.

Please, my wish is to see my dream come true before I die. So, I will appreciate this can be facilitated.

Thank you my beloved.
