I appologise to you for any inconveniences caused if his mail does not meet your demands,though I do not intend to embarass you by the contents of this very mail. I am Barrister Keith Harris. I was the personal Attorney to Late Engr David Singh who was a citizen of your Country but lived and did his business here in London with his family and he was the CEO of Suh Properties before his sudden death along with his family. Since then, several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives have also proved abortive. Hence, after these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.
This mail is written to solicit your assistance to present you as next of kin to my Late Client.Before his sudden death,he made a fixed Deposit valued at USD22million (Twenty Two Million United States Dollars Only) with a bank here. Unfortunately he lost his life aboard a British C-130 military transport plane crashed in north of Baghdad. He left no clear beneficiary as Next of Kin.

The Bank has searched for the relatives for more than four years without any success and after 6 years,no claims are made by any of the deceased next of kin,the money will be sent to unclaimed accounts and embezzled by the corrupt bank or government officials. It is against this bank drop that the bank has contacted me as the Late depositor's Attorney to contact and present to them my late Client's next of kin so that the deposit can be paid to him or her.
This is why I have contacted you.Anybody I present to the bank as the next of kin will be accepted and therefore I wish to present you .
Upon your acceptance, I shall give you other details for the successful claim of the fund. I have secured from the probate registry, an order of Mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries, and more so I am assuring you that this business is 100% risk free. If this proposal is acceptable by you, please endeavour to reply me immediately,if not please disregard this email.
Thank you very much for your anticipated acceptance while I expect your prompt response.
Yours faithfully,
Barrister Keith Harris
