Note that my late client left no one behind as his next of kin/sole
beneficiary till he died. I Have made several enquiries to your embassy
Here
to locate any of my late Clients extended relatives acting on the
directive
of the STANDARD TRUST BANK PLC,issued to me on the 18th of December
2002,
where my late client left behind a deposit of US$7.4 million American
Dollars to come forward as his next of kin and lay claim to the funds
he
left behind so that the Bank can renormalize the account and remit the
funds
to the person.After several unsuccessful attempts at locating his
relatives,I have contacted you to come forward and claim the money for
you
and me from the Bank,before it gets declared unserviceable and
confiscated
by the Bank.
The said Bank has issued me another notice to provide the next of kin
or
have the account confiscated within the next Twenty One official
working
days,so we have to act fast.Be informed that you have nothing to worry
about
with regards this fact,you see the inheritance law clearly leaves any
proof
of who is or is not the next of kin,to the deceased's lawyer to
prove,as the
lawyer of the deceased the law states that I have the final say on who
is
and is not the beneficiary of the deceased's estate and properties,all
is
well I am in possession of vital information and legal documents needed
to
back you up for this claim.All I require from you is your honest
cooperation
to enable us see this transaction through.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement.
I await your urgent response to enable us start this transaction in
earnest
so we can proceed and also discuss the sharing ratio for the money
between
us and the procedures to make the claim.Be informed also that this
account
has been declared dormant by the said Bank from my Investigations and
as
such you would have to apply to the bank as the sole beneficiary to the
funds for the claim of the money,after which the Bank would direct you
on
how to re-activate the account back to normal and then you would
instruct
the Bank on how you want your funds transferred to you.Upon your
responseI
will furnish you with the text of application letter you would send to
the
Bank and the necessary information's to back up the claim application.
Your nationality does not matter as all modalities have been set to pay
whomever I present as the next of kin it will take us few working days
to
conclude as soon as you indicate your interest. For prompt
action,please
contact me urgently by email:barristermikeorlando_law@yahoo.com
shall
role out the modalities for the actualization of this project as soon
as I
receive your email response.Please, do accord this transaction the
confidentiality it deserves.
