Subject: VITAL INFORMATION, (APPLICATION ATTACHED).
Dear Katharine,
Attached on this email is a sample of the application which I want you to fill out and return to me for corrections. You will be standing as the next of kin to my late client after whom the fund will be transferred into your account via wire transfer. At the end of the transfer, I will be moving down with my family for that is when I will collect my share from you. The late Mark Peter note peter is the middle name was a citizen of United-State, but also a citizen of Belgium and UK. The dads name is Williams why the Mum's name is Vivian and they were both Christians. Have it in mind that I have never had opportunity to come across the parents because I knew Mark as an Orphan. The fathers died in 1976 in Belgium were Mark was brought up and trained, while the mum died 5 yrs after. Engineer Mark (55 yrs), had a wife named, Amber she was 45 before her death, and two sons, Michael (25 yrs) and Kenneth (18 yrs), as well as his daughter, Misti (10 yrs).He was transferred from
Belgium in the year 1988.The parents are late and he was residing at 96 STAINES ROAD HUNSLOW MIDDLESEX TW3 3JB.Please try to get used to this information’s before calling the finance company for it will be very useful when you make the call to them.
Once again thanks for your willingness to assist me. Attached on this email is a copy of the text of application which I want you to send to the finance company right after this email but after filling it, you have to send it down to me for my perusal and corrections if there is any to be made, then you can send it down to the finance company but I will advise you call the finance company first before sending the application to let them know of your sudden intentions, the email address of the company is guardiantrust@financier.com and the companies direct number is +448700672710 :fax:+448709122398 and if you are connected, tell who ever picks the phone that you want to speak with Dr Henry White, he is the DIRECTOR OF INTERNATIONAL REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT, and if he is connected to you, I want you to tell him whom you are and why you have come, if he cares to know how you discovered that your family had such an amount of fund with them, tell him that your family discovered some
documents that shows he deposited such amount of fund with them.
I know this will come like a surprise to them but I do not think there is nothing they can do, because the money does not belong to them. If he wants to know why you have not come for this claim after such a long time, I want you to tell him that you have being very busy with business engagements outside your country and that has kept you away. I want you to be very calm and composed when you are speaking with the director of international remittance department that is Dr Henry White. He knows what and what they will be requiring as proof so let him ask and I am there to provide to you what ever he needs so do not bother. If they want to know some of the documents you have to make this claim, I want you to tell him you have the DEATH CERTIFICATE, DEED OF LODGE,AND CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT which are documents signed on the day the fund was deposited in the finance company and it is a very vital and important document as it stands as evidence that such fund was kept under their
care and that makes it undeniable by them.
