Dear Friend,
I am Frank Garry and am a private financial consultant /Account portfolio
manager. I Happen to have managed a particular account for a Resident
Foreigner, here in the United Kingdom, who died Intestate, leaving in our
care a sizable amount in a domiciliary United States Dollars Investment ACC.
For some reason this client does not have an easily identifiable next of Kin
I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients relatives;
immediate and extended, this has proved unsuccessful. Hence, I am contacting
you. I need your assistance in securing the money and property left behind
by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the
Finance House here in the United Kingdom. The Finance House has already
issued a Government Mandatory formality notice to provide the Next of Kin or
have the account confiscated and this should expire within a month. Since I
have been unsuccessful in locating any of his relatives for over two years
and convinced that no one is coming up and having satisfied the mandatory
legal requirement of Beneficiary/next of kin Notification, I now seek a
Reliable and trustworthy person, with your consent and perfect
understanding, to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the
proceeds of this account initially valued at Six Million, Three Hundred And
Twenty Thousand United States Dollars, interest not inclusive, can be paid
into an account to be provided by you( preferably outside the United Kingdom
Financial Institutions or its Isles), as the perceived Next Of Kin Legally
and Otherwise.
All I require is your honest cooperation and confidence in me. I guarantee
that this will be executed under a legitimate background that will protect
you from any breach of the law. I would advise that you give this positive
consideration and get back to me soon. I'll be flexible and considerate in
the percentage share that will be given to you for your assistance. Upon
receipt of your response I'll send to you my private number so that you can
reach me for further discussion.Please you can reeach me on my private email
address fgarry3@yahoo.co.uk
Cordially,
Frank Garry.
