ATTENTION PLEASE,

Complement of the year,

It is my pleasure contacting you now, as I have longed to
get in touch with anybody who knew my late client. I am
BARR.CALVIN STONE,A Nigerian citizen and the personal
attorney to Mr,Donald Jones, My late client who died along
with his family on the 28 NOV 1987 in a plane crash,the
aircraft name is Boeing 747 -244B(Operator)South African
Airways,This crash happened in Mauritius, Indian Ocean in
Africa, and the registration number of the aircraftis
ZS-SAS.My client had deposited about Ten million
US.Dollars (10 Million US Dollars)in a finance Bank with
an account number 023645364,here in Nigera while working
with a tourism development centre in west Africa as the
head.

Since then, there had not been any trace of claim from any
person as the fund remains dormant in his account with his
bank(STANDARD FINANCE BANK)here in Nigeria. Although, I
kept this information confidential whitin my jurisdiction
to enable me put claims and transfer the said amount
through a foreign trustworthy friend overseas whom I shall
present to the bank as the bonefide next-of-kin to the
deceased for a profittable
and successful project.Ever since I have been trying to
locate the next of kin or any of the relatives to come
forward and make this claim, but to no avail.Right now, the
bank is experiencing some internal problems which could
lead to failure, and total forfeit of my late client's
deposits. Please, if you are related to my client or in any
way you can assist me to transfer this fund to your account
i will be very grateful for your help and assistance.

I also assure you that this matter will be executed under a
legitimate arrangement that will prevent us from any break
of the law in the time of transaction.then re-contact me,
So you can come up and make the claim, because I do not
want the money to be forfeited, as I expect to benefit from
the money also.please contact me via my alternate
Email:attorneycalvin2005@yahoo.it

My Regards.
Att.Calvin Stone. Esq
