Dear VIEHMAN,
I am Mr. James Kamara, the personal accounting officer to Mr. Williams
VIEHMAN,a
national of your country, who used to work with shell development
company in
Nigeria. Here in after shall be referred to as my client.
On the 21st of April 1999, my client, his wife and their three children
were
involved in a car accident
along sagbama express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately
lost
there lives. Since then I
have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients
extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessful. After these
several
unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his surname over the
Internet, to
locate any member of his family hence I contacted you. I have contacted
you
to assist in repatriating the money and property left behind by my
client
before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where
these huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly, the Horse bank plc where the deceased had an account
valued at
about 20.5million dollars has issued me a notice as his accounting
officer
to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the
next
ten official working days. since i have been unsuccessfully 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 surname so that the
proceeds of this account valued at 20.5million dollars can be paid to
you
and then you and me can share the money. 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. All you have to do is to
send
the following:
(1) Your personal phone/fax number preferable cell.
(2) Your billing address.
(3) your name in full.
(4) Your banking info
With this information? it will enable me open a file on your behalf.
Thanks and God Bless.
Best Regards.
Mr. James Kamara
