Subject: Funds Remmitance
Attention,
My names are Barrister George Eyakwe. Actually, I got your contact
information through the U.S.A. public records while searching for a last
name similar to my late client. A business magnate by name Dr. Dewayne , Who
lived in Spain for Thirteen years, he died along ago with his family during
the Tsunami catastrophe,which occurred December 2004.
Prior to my explaining further, I must first make an apology for this
unsolicited mail to you. I am conscious that this is certainly not a
predictable way of approach to foster a relationship of trust,because of the
circumstances and urgency surrounding this claim.
Before the catastrophe; He deposited One Trunk Box/Diplomatic Personal
Treasure, containing the sum of $9.8M (NINE MILLION, EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND
US DOLLARS) with a security company here in Spain , Because of security and
personal reasons.He did not disclose the exact content of deposited
diplomatic box to the treasure house. As the attorney to late Dr. Dewayne ,
the security company has mandated me to present a member of his
family(heir/inheritor) to make Claims, or the vault will be confiscated and
taken to the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, as unclaimed.
After preliminary efforts of search for a direct family member which came to
no avail, I was given an ultimatum at the beginning of the New Year to look
for some relative to come for the claim or have the Vault liquidated and
made unserviceable in accordance with existing laws. Against this backdrop,
my suggestion to you, is that I will like you to stand as the next of kin.I
know you may not be anyway related to my late client but having a common
surname with him, and the modality I have in place I can guarantee that if
you follow my instructions (The rule of law) the vault will be release to
us.
Mind you that this transaction is 100% risk free; there is no atom of risk
connected to this business. As I have worked out all modalities to complete
the operation effectively. Once the diplomatic consignment is released to
you, we shall divide the content in the ratio of 50% for you, 50% for me as
our benefit. ($4.9 Million each)
Kindly indicate your responses to this mail either via my office email
address, my private email address,you can call or send me a fax for further
clarification.Also please be kind to get back to me, if you are not willing
to collaborate with me. So that I can further my search for another partner.
Kind Regards,
George Eyakwe.
(E.S.Q).
