Dear Friend,
I want you to patiently read this confidential business offer that will
be of mutual benefit to both of us. After much consideration I decided to
contact you through email, which I feel is more secure.
I am Rasheed Waziri a Solicitor. I am the Personal Attorney to Engr.Irfan
Orkan, a Foreigner who used to work in an oil-servicing firm in Nigeria.On
the 21st of May 2002, my client, his wife and their two children were involved
in an air crash of an (ADC) plane (local flight traveling from Kano to Abuja
in Nigeria) All passengers on board unfortunately lost their lives.
Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended
relatives, this has proved unsuccessful hence I contacted you. I have contacted
you to assist in claiming the money left behind by my late client before
they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge
deposit were lodged. The bank where my late client deposited US$6.8 million(Six
Million Eight Hundred Thousand United States Dollars)has issued me a notice
to provide the next of kin or have the money confiscated within the next
twenty official working days. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating
his relatives for over two years, I decided to seek your consent to present
you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this amount
valued at US$6.8 million dollars can be paid to you and then you and me
will share the money. Which we shall discuss on the ratio of sharing as
soon as I hear from you on your acceptance to work with me.
I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim
we may make. All I need from you is your sincere co-operation 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.
If this my humble request is okay by you, please get in touch with me through
this my email to enable us discuss further.
Note: This business is personal, so it should be treated same.
Best regards,
Rasheed Waziri.
