very urgent very urgent please

Hello my dear friend,    I am writing to inform you that your over due fund of $459,000.00 which has  been delayed since years ago is now ready for payment but i don't know how i  am to explain this to you because a man named Mr Jack Petersen who claimed to be your representative,stated that you are dead, and he brought an account to replace your information in other to claim the said fund which is now lying DORMANT and UNCLAIMED.    This approved amount is only but $459,000.00 which i don't know how i am to send these funds across to you because your partner Mr Jack stated that you suffered and died of throat cancer and you signed a POA for him to claim the funds before your death.    Please confirm if you are alive by responding to me.    If you are still alive, then you are to contact me immediately so that i can instruct the bank to send you the money in your account.    Hope it is safe for you to receive the funds?    Thank you.  Yuriy Feduleev  Assistant General Manager  Barclays Bank
