All the family of my client lost thier lives.
Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any
of my clients extended relatives but all to no avail. After these several
unsuccessful attempts, I decided to contact you to assist in repatriating
the money and propertyleft behind by my client before they get confiscated
or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly,the finance companywhere the deceased had an account
valued at about USD$7.5 million dollars has issued me a notice to
provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next
few weeks.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 2
years now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the
deceased since you have the same last name so that the proceeds of
this account valued at USD$7.5 million dollars can be paid to you and then
you and me can share the money in the following ration:55% to me and 40%
to
you, and also 5% for any expenses that may be incure during the
process of this transaction, telephone bills.
I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any
claim we may make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us
see this deal through.I guarantee that this will be executed under a
legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the
law.
Please if you are interested to work with me with one mind, get in
touch with me by my email and send to me your full name and residential
address,telephone and fax numbers to enable us discuss further on this
transaction, and also your banking details and address where this fund
will be released into.
I hope to hear further response from you regards this transaction.
God bless you.
