Dear Friend,
The purpose of this letter is to briefly introduce myself and I would like
to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to
you. My name is Mr.Christine Stevens Ubaka,I work in executive capacity with
CARGO HANDLING& SECURITY TRUST COMPANY in (Lagos) I joined the services of
this company in 1985.I come to know you in my private search for a reliable
and reputable person to handle this confidential transaction, I decided to
contact you believing that you will become my overseas Business assocaites
in acquiring an investment placed under our management more than seven (7)
years ago. I have worked with this company for over 20 years,within this
period of time I watched with meticulous precision on how Head of State and
government functionaries have been moving huge sums of money with the aid of
their foreign partners abroad. They bring in theseconsignment and declare
the content as jewelries, Gold, Precious Stones, Family Treasure,
Documents,etc.
These people have at one time or the other deposited consignments with us
and their foreign partners, relatives and Next of Kin are Claiming most of
these consignment and a lot more are laying here unclaimed for as much as 7
years, as no available information to anybody except the depositors, and
most of them are dead. Since the inception of the year 2004,the Management
changed!the procedure of claiming of consignments.
As soon as you are able to produce all the information as contained in the
secret file of the company as regard the consignment, it will be released to
you upon demand. From our records, more than 10 consignments belonging to
these people has been claimed in the past six months and this is why I am
seeking for your co-operation and assistance to help execute this pending
deal which has been unclaimed for so long as I know no one will ever come
forward to claim it because the deceased left no next of kin. The amount in
question is very small compared to what my office has sent overseas for this
people.
I will provide all the documents needed for this purpose as I was the
account officer who handled most this transaction on behalf of this
client.For the release of the consignment, Our Overseas correspondent will
demand for some documents and the security code of the consignment, you will
call on me to supply you with every detailed Information as regard the
consignment.
As soon as they have confirmed it to be correct, the company will invite you
for the collection, or you may insist that the consignment be delivered to
you instead.
I hope to hear from you to enable me provide you with the complete picture
of this deal. Funish me with the following FullNames/address/Telephone and
fax numbers.
Best Regards
Mr.Christine Stevens Ubaka.
