PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL
Dear Leadbeater,
It is with heartfelt hope that I write to seek your
co-operation and assistance in the context stated below.
I am Barrister Adediran Benson, an advocate and Solicitor at
law. I am the Personal Attorney to late Mr.John Leadbeater,
a national of your country, who unfortunately was one of the
victims of the AF4590 German Concorde plane that crashed in
Germany, 2000.
Check the site:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
Late Mr.Leadbeater, was a foreign Oil consultant/contractor
with the Royal Dutch/Shell Group of companies. He was on his
way on a business contract,on the 31 day of July 2000,
before he died. on further investigation it was confirmed
that his wife and three children were also involved in the
crash.
All persengers on the plane lost their lives. Since then I
have made several enquiries to his embassy to see if i can
locate any of my clients extended elatives,this has all the
while proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts,I decided to trace
his relatives (i.e.same surname) over the Internet,to locate
any member of his family, as my late client made a Deed of
will giving authourity to claim, by any surviving relative
incase of his death, but all this to no avail, hence I have
contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the money
left behind by my client before it is confiscated or
declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposit
is lodged. Particularly, the Bank where the deceased had an
account valued at about $10.5 million dollars has issued me
a notice to provide the next of kin to the deceased or have
the account confiscated by the end of next month quarter,
since the interest is being rolled over with the principal
sum.
Since i have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives I
seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the
deceased since you are still a foreigner,so that the
proceeds of this account valued at $10.5 million USD can be
paid to you. 50% of the fund will be for me, 40% to
you,while 10% should be for expenses or tax as your
government may require.
I will obtain 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 thelaw.
I trust this mail will meet you in good health and i know
that you will assist me regards this matter. you can contact
me via my private number below for more details.
I await your Urgent response
Sincerely,
Barrister Adediran Benson
NB: Kindly forward all response to
adminchambers@hotmail.com, as i do not regularly tend to the
address i e-mailed you
with.
Thanks for your understanding.
