(TRANSFER OF us$20.5 M)
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am JACKSON KUMA, I was a financial consultant to Mr J.B Nettles,
a national Of your country, who used to work as a contractor in
South Africa. Referred to as my client. On the 30th of April 2001,
my client, and their only daughter were involved in a car accident
along Pretoria road in South Africa.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since
then I have made several enquiry?s here to locate any of my
clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to search
through with his name which motivated me to contact you, to locate
any member of his family hence I contacted you. I have contacted
you to assist in repatriating the fund valued at US$20.5 Million
(Twenty million, Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars) left
behind by my client Before it gets confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the Security Finance Firm (Bank) where this huge
amount were deposited. The said Security Finance Company has
issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have his account
confiscated within the next twenty one official working days.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over
2 years now, I seek the consent to present you as the next of kin
to the deceased since you have the same last names, so that the
proceeds of this account can be paid to you. Therefore, on receipt
of your positive response, we shall then discuss the sharing
ratio and modalities for transfer. I have all necessary
information and legal documents needed to back you up for claim.
All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us
see this transaction through. I guarantee that this will be
executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from
any breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me through the above emails or Telephone
/fax numbers for more details.
Best regards.
MR. JACKSON KUMA.
