FEDERAL HIGH COURT BENIN
WHITE-HOUSE BUILDING,

COTONOU REPUBLIC OF BENIN.
ATTN :My Dear,
Compliments, I barrister Uderah have decided to bestow this trust on
you, which I pray you will not ignore or betray. I apologize in advance
for any inconveniences this may cause you. I am Barrister Godwin Uderah
the Personal Attorney to late Mr Awad Essad who was an Importer of Textiles
and Automobiles,here in Benin Rep. for the past fifteen years. Who, on the
Thursday, 25 December 2003, with his entire family were perished in ill-fated
plane crash into the Atlantic ocean involving a Boeing 727 UTA chartered
flight that took off from Cotonou, Republic of Benin As a matter of fact,
my client made a fixed deposit Amount, valued at (US$27.4M)with Reliance
Bank here in Benin Rep, and upon the duration time of their agreement, his
bank started. The money is due to mature by 28th February, 2004, and should
be
claimed by the depositor or his next of kin contacting him but no response.
Consequently, the bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin to
the deceased as his personal attorney, or have his account confiscated after
two years, as it is in the law of this country.
Since then, I have made several contacts to His Countries Embassy in
order to locate any of my clients extended relatives, which had also been
unsuccessful. Since I have been unsuccessfully in locating the relatives
for over one years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of
kin of the deceased since none of his relatives were no way to be found
so that the proceeds of this account valued at US$27.4M could be transferred
into your account thereafter, we will both share it in percentage according
to our contributions to boost the success of this great transaction. I have
all the necessary legal documents that can be used to back up all the claims
we will make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us make
this great benefiting transaction successfully.I guarantee that this will
be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any
breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me as fast as possible through mail and
my direct phone 00229-280-415 for more clarification.
With best regards,
Hon: Godwin Uderah Esq.
Senior advocate of Benin(SAB).
