Dear ,
I am Barrister Ugo Oba,the Personal Attorney to Mr Larry , A
foreigner who used to work with Mekon Associates company in Nigeria,On
the 2nd of March 2000, my client, his wife And their three children
were involved in a car accident along Port Harcourt Road.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then
I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my
clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.After
these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives
over the Internet,to locate any member of his family but of no avail,
hence I contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist me in repartrating the money left behind
by my client before they get confisicated or declared unserviceable by
the finance house where this huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly, the finance house where the deceased had an account valued
at about 20 million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the next
of kin or have the account confisicated within the next ten official
working days. since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives
for over 3years now I seek your consent to present you as the next of
kin to the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at $20
million dollars can be paid to you and then you and i can share the
money. 55% to me and 40% to you,while 5% should be for expenses or tax
as your government may require,I have 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
transaction
through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.Please get
in touch with me by my secured and confidential e-mail address at
