The said legates are his corporate business home valued at 2.4 Million
U.S Dollars and 31 Million U.S Dollars cash in a bank account with Standard Chartered bank of South Africa.We have made several and unrelenting efforts in our bid to get across to the beneficiary of the fund, but without success believing that he is no longer existing.We therefore write you to solicit for your assistance to enable us redeem the fund into your personal banking accounts on the agreement that you retain 25% of the principalamount once transferred into your bank account.
