Dear Frend,
Compliment of the day! First, Let me start by introducing myself properly
to you. I am Barrister Anthony Tobi , a solicitor and attorney at law. I
am the, personal Attorney to Late Engr, Allen Biggs, a national and citizen
of American, who worked with an Oil Servicing and Exploration Company in
bayelsa state, here in Nigeria. My client, Late Engr,Allen Biggs Died In
odi bayelsa state massacre when the odi youths carry out kidnaping and killing
the oil workers On the 21st of April 2001,Late Engr,Allen Biggs with his
wife and their two children died While trying escape through Port Hartcourt
a nearby state to Lagos where they where residing before they meet there
untimely death while runing for there life.
My client Deposited the sum of $15million dollars in a Local bank abroad,
before his untimely death, whose Deposit Certificate was kept under my care
as his Personal Attorney. He had wanted to transfer this fund to his country
as soon as he is on leave, but his hope was cut down because he died before
carrying out his wishes. As his personal Attorney, Since his death I have
made several enquiries to locate any of his extended relatives, this has
also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts to locate
any of his relatives,I decided to contact you so that you and I can work
together in repatrating the money left behind by my late client.
Meanwhile, I got to know of you in my private search for a reliable and
reputable person to handle this transaction, I got your email address through
the Chamber Of Commerce here in Nigeria. I have contacted you to assist
in repatriating the money left behind by my late client before his account
get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Bank where this fund was
Deposited.
Presently,the Bank has issued me a notice to provide the Next Of Kin of
my Late Client or have his account confiscated within the next (14) official
working days, mandated by the Bank, failure to provide the next of kin within
this period the fund will be declared as UNCLAIMED FUND.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for some couple
of years now, I seek your consent to present you as the Next Of Kin of the
deceased, so that the proceeds of his account valued at $15million dollars
can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money.
1. 30% of the money will go to you for acting as the beneficiary of the
fund.(2).10% will be set aside for reimbursement to both parties for any
expenses that may be incurred in the course of the transfer, including any
taxes to be demanded by your government(3.) 60% will come to me as the originators
of the transaction.
All legal documents and proves to back up our claim will be provided when
necessary. All I require is your honest and your co-operation to enable
us see this transaction through and to reclaim the fund deposited by my
client rather than allowing the Bank to hold on to the fund and declare
it UNCLAIMED. I guarantee that this transaction will be carried out under
a legitimate arrangement that will protect you and I from any breach of
law.
Hence, If this proposal is OK by you and you do not wish to take undue advantage
of the trust, I hope to bestow on you. Then kindly get back to me immediately,to
enable me enlighten you on how we are to proceed. I will not contact any
other person or company until I hear from you, so as to enable me decide
on what to do next.you can reach me on this number at any time for more
clerification:+234-805-544-8272.
