From: Reverend Justin Timberlake
To: Abraham Nelson
My dear brother in Christ Mr. Nelson,
Bless the Lord JESUS CHRIST almighty for your email. I think I
may be able to help you. Please call me ASAP on my private business
line to discuss this proposition. My contact number is (United Kingdom)
044 7092 037 387.
Now some information about myself, my name is Justin Timberlake,
I am in fact a man of God, my full title being the Reverend Justin
Timberlake. I am in charge of my local church, The Holy Church of
Bread and Wine. We are of course a Christian church AMEN! Please
find attached to this email a photograph of our beautiful little
church.
I think we may be able to help you in your plight. You see, as
an officially registered religious donator, our church assigns funds
to help out with deserving cases, by donating funds or help. Surely
I am the men to give you what you TRULY DESERVE.
Your case seems very worthwhile, and whilst we cannot donate large
amounts, I think that the church would be able to send you the small
sum of US $44,330 (forty four thousand, three hundred and thirty
dollars). We are usually able to donate larger amounts but at the
moment are funds are quite limited as we are at the end of our financial
year and my wife needs new curtains (my wife's beef curtains are
sadly worn through constant use). This money would be sent to you
in a manner of your choosing, and hopefully it would enable you
to realise your dream of helping other Christian people, AMEN!
Of course, we do not send out payments without going through the
proper procedures, so if you would like to claim the cash, these
are the steps you will need to take:
1. The Church or Bread and Wine will send you a agreement form,
which you will have to fill in and sign.
2. On receipt of the form, we will require a photograph of you,
or a trusted representative as proof of identity. You will have
to get a NEW photograph taken, holding a symbol of ours. This proves
that the person in the photograph is genuine. Passport or other
photographs will NOT be accepted, neither will fakes of forgeries.
If you agree to the two conditions above, we will attach the agreement
form for you to complete, and then after that we will explain to
you what type of photograph we need from you. On receipt of a SATISFACTORY
photograph, we will immediately forward the $44,330 to you in a
manner of your choice.
Sincerely.
Rev. Justin Timberlake.
The Holy Church of Bread and Wine.

Dear Justin Timberlake.,
Thank you for your response. But can I know the procedure, and if
that is all your procedure can you please forward your agreement
form to us. And can we please know how realisitic this assistance
will be.
Thanks
Abraham
From: Reverend Justin Timberlake
To: Abraham Nelson
Dear Abraham,
Many blessings for replying to my letter so soon my brother in Christ.
Please find attached the agreement form. Please complete the blank
sections and email or fax it back to me. My fax number is (United
Kingdom) 044 7092 037 526
Once the completed form has been received then you must arrange
to have your photograph taken and then send it back to us. This
is a requirement of the church donations board, and payment will
not be made until a suitable photograph is received. However, to
be certain that the image you send is not a forgery (some fools
try to send us false images) you MUST follow this procedure:
You may choose either a loaf of BREAD, or a bottle of WINE. You
MUST have your photograph taken holding either of these items. However,
because it may be possible to find another fake picture of someone
holding a bottle of wine, or even a loaf of bread, you MUST hold
them in a unusual position, this way the church will know that the
image must be genuine.
1. If you choose a loaf of bread, you must place it upon your head.
2. If you choose a bottle of wine, you must hold it in a position
where it looks like you are pouring it in your ear.
PLEASE NOTE that it is VERY IMPORTANT that the image you send is
LARGE and CLEAR. Unsuitable, unclear or small images will not be
accepted.
I know the request above seems strange, but it is
the only way in which you can prove the image you send is 100% genuine.
Once a suitable image is received, your application will be immediately
approved, and as soon as you let us know your preferred payment
method we will forward the payment immediately at some time in the
future, if ever.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
God bless,
Rev. Justin Timberlake.

Sir,
After feeling this agreement, are u telling us that we should hold
any wine and do it as if we are pouring it on our ear or we should
put loaf bread on our head? is that all? [Is that all?! Damn,
I should have asked for more!]
I am really interested in knowing more about your believe and let
me know the requirments to join or to promote this belief in my
country as well.
Thank you
Abraham
From: Reverend Justin Timberlake
To: Abraham Nelson
Dear Abraham,
Thank you for your email, and may I take this opportunity to bless
you and your gonads.
I am sorry that the request seems strange, but it is this very
reason why we can be 100% sure that the picture is genuine. Please
note that you do not have to use a full bottle of wine. Please make
sure you keep the lid on, or you will end up with wine all over
your face. The reason for choosing the Bread or Wine is of course
that is what our church is called.
If you are interested in our church, we are always looking for
new people to join us. Once I receive your photograph I can send
you some of our leaflets/information when I send your payment.
Sincerely,
(Rev.) Justin Timberlake.

about it, I just wanted him to think he was doing something 'official']

Dear Rev. Justin,
This is Mr. Abraham Nelson. Attached is the said agreement form
you asked me to complete.
So what's next? [Taking the piss out of you of course]
Abraham Nelson
[Mr. Nelson's signed agreement form]
[I congratulate Abraham on his form completion,
and again remind him of his new requirements]
From: Reverend Justin Timberlake
To: Abraham Nelson
Dear Mr. Nelson,
Thank you for sending the signed agreement. I am happy to tell
you that you are now one step away from completing the required
procedure and receiving your payment. BLESS THE LORD AND HIS DISCIPLES,
AND PRAISE OUR HOLY BOLLOCKS.
As you know, you are now required to send the church a photograph
of yourself, and on receipt of an acceptable photograph, the payment
will be made to you in a manner of your own choosing (Western Union,
Cheque, Wire Transfer etc.). [I think we can all take a good
guess at Abraham's preferred option]
However, being a large organisation, we are very often contacted
by people who try to trick us into giving a donation, so to prevent
this and prove your identity, we request that you have a photograph
take with a bottle of wine, or a loaf of bread (because of course
this is the name of our church). The reason we ask this is because
a picture like this is almost impossible to forge.
You may choose either a loaf of BREAD, or a bottle of WINE. You
MUST have your photograph taken holding either of these items. However,
because it may be possible to find another fake picture of someone
holding a bottle of wine, or even a loaf of bread, you MUST hold
them in a unusual position, that way the church will know that the
image must be genuine.
1. If you choose a loaf of bread, you must place it on your head.
2. If you choose a bottle of wine, you must hold it in a position
where it looks like you are pouring it in your ear (note that the
bottle can be empty if you prefer).
PLEASE NOTE that it is VERY IMPORTANT that the image you send is
LARGE and CLEAR. Unsuitable, unclear or small images will NOT be
accepted.
[Lets try and appeal to this lads greedy side]
IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE BOTH THE BOTTLE AND THE BREAD TOGETHER THE
CHURCH WILL DONATE AN EXTRA $1,000.00.
Once a suitable image is received, your application will be IMMEDIATELY
approved, and as soon as you let us know your preferred payment
method we will forward the payment of $44,330.00 immediately.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
God bless,
Rev. Justin Timberlake.

Dear Mr Nelson,
I do apologise. As mentioned previously, Mr. Walker was our last

his name correctly from the computer database. I have attached a
revised version.

we can send the money. If you get the agreement back to use before
4pm GMT today, we will be able to send your payment today.

Dear Mr. Nelson.
Good morning to you sir.
I am sorry for the delay in the processing of your payment, but
I am afraid that I have to ask you for some more information. Police
inspector Jack Clouseau who is in charge of the case probing the
death of the Reverend C. Inpiss has been keeping me very busy.
Inspector Clouseau has informed me that you will be required to
submit a short statement detailing the way you will be spending
the donation money. Please would you forward me a list of the people/charities
that will be benefiting from our donation payment to you? The inspector
has also requested a copy of your passport.
As soon as I have received this I will forward it to inspector
Clouseau, and hopefully we will then be able to finally make the
payment to you.
I am sorry for the delay, but after such a mysterious and tragic
death, certain procedures must be followed.
Bless you,
Rev. Justin Timberlake.
[Abram replies, but seems to have missed the significance
of me mentioning the DEATH of C. Inpiss. He was only ill a short
while ago when he sent his get well soon card!]

Thank you Reverend.
About the details you requested of, these are as follow:
- We have a very big plan first for unemployed youths that are
involving themselves in robbery and other activities such as prostitutes
and so on, we are having plan that we shall use part of the money
to establish a vocational training which at the end of the day they
will be on their own and we then give then money to go and establish
business on thier own base on what they have leanrt.
- We planned to visit the below orphanages house:
- God first Orphans house
- Soul Rescue Team House
- There are youths as well which they don't have a financial
support for the continuation of the academics, during our town to
town awareness we have planned to sponsor them to the length of
a good education.
- Creating a primary schools to the villages and creating boreholes
as well
[Ahh... All worthy causes Abram]
However, anything we do with this money shall be accounted for,
and by the special grace of god we shall invite you our country
to come and see our achievement so far.
We shall then put the logo of your church there being our sponsor
of this programme we have ahead of us.
The whole Commitee of this foundation is sending the condolence
to you for the death of one of your member may His gentle soul rest
in perfect peace, Amen.
I will send my passport to you later in the day.
Thank you.
And do not hesitate to ask any questions if need arises for
it.

Dear Abram,
Sorry but there is a problem. The passport picture you sent is
not a passport picture. Please send a PASSPORT image.
Also, why does the man in the photograph not look like anyone in
the group picture that you sent to me? I thought that the man holding
the bottle was you. The 'passport' picture you sent to me looks
nothing like you.
Please clear up this matter ASAP.
