Subject: Very Important/Response Required:
Hello,
I will like to solicit your help in a business proposition, which is
by nature very confidential and a Top Secret. I know that a transaction
of this magnitude will make any one worried and apprehensive but I am
assuring you not to worry, as all will be well at the end of this endeavor.
I am Mr.Daniel Jones,Client Service Manager of Capital Trust Bank London.
My partners and I have decided to seek your help in transfer of some amount
of money requiring maximum confidence from my bank.
A foreigner, Late Dr. Edward Barksdale who was until his death an oil dealer
and had extensive contacts in the middle east who met his death onboard
the ill fated Kenyan Airways bus {A310300} bound for Africa was our customerand
had a Balance of US$32 million which the bank now expects his next of kin
to claim as the beneficiary.
So far, valuable efforts has been made to get to his people but to no
avail, as he had no known relatives amd more because he left his next of
kin column in his account opening forms blank. Due to this development
our management and the board of directors are making arrangements for
the funds to be declared unclaimed and subsequently paid into a reserve
purse.
To avert this negative development my colleagues and I have decided to
look for a reputable person to act as the next of kin to late Dr. Barksdale
so that the funds could be processed and released into his account, which
is where you come in.
We shall make arrangement with a qualified and reliable attorney that
will represent you in liaising with my bank for inconveniency of you coming
to my country. All legal documents to aid your claim for this fund and
to prove your relationship with the deceased will be provided by us. Your
help will be
appreciated with 20% of the total sum (US$6,400,000).
Please accept my apologies, keep my confidence and disregard this letter
if you do not appreciate this proposition I have offered you. Thank you
very much
for your time.
I wait anxiously for your response.
Yours faithfully,
Daniel Jones
