Status: offline 		Who would have known? Apparently the Stepsout dynasty stretches far and wide across the globe. I have to wonder how many others have fabulously wealthy dead relatives? Perhaps the Cumsluts of England? or the Bitchboys of New Hampshire? or the Sissyslave4U's of France?

Edited for brevity.

"Dear stepsout,

I am a legal practitioner and attorney to Mr.Kenneth stepsout, who came to London Uk sometime ago to establish a company for oil exploration. Unfortunately, my client a widower died with his only son in a boat mishap.Since his death, I have made enquiries at his country's embassy to locate any member of his extended relations so that i can hand them over some of his vital documents in my custody but to no avail.

However, some recent developments here necessitated my extending the search in the internet. As luck may have it, I noticed that you share the same last name with my deceased client which prompted me to contact you via your email address.

I have been given two weeks in lieu of notice to produce the deceased next of kin. Considering the exhaustive efforts I have made to locate the deceased relation,since you bear the same last name with the deceased, I want to seek your consent to present you as the deceased only surviving relative .

I await your immediate response to enable me commence the procession of the claim and maintain confidentiality in this claim.

Regards,

Barrister"


He EVEN spells stepsout with a small s just like me. WHEEEEE I'm going to be RICH!!!! Now I can afford to rescue that poor Ethopian Prince and partner up with those guys in China!

Status: offline 		OMG....TNstepsout...i wonder if WE are related.  I received the same letter not too long ago.  I replied "Show ME the Money"...but am still awaiting a reply.  In the meantime, I quit my job, bought a house and have been living a life of leisure, all on credit of course, as i await this money.   I do hope it arrives soon though as this life of leisure doesn't come cheap.

I think it's fun at least.

Good post, some humorous replies.  Now, if someone can tell me just how I'm related to that missing link fella...
