Subject: Attn
Attn,
I have stressed out my research looking for some one
like you. I feel the surprise this mail will bring to
you at frist sight but I assure you that I came with
the best of intentions and good will. It is my
pleasure contacting you now, as I have longed to get
in touch with anybody who knew Mr. David riff
Dalton. I am Tony Chuk, personal accountant to
Mr. Dalton who died along with his family on
the 01 FEB 1997 in a plane crash, the aircraft name is
Hawker Siddeley HS-748-353 Srs.2A.This crash happened
in Tambacounda (Senegal) in Africa, and the
registration number of the aircraft is 6AV-AEO. My
client had deposited 6million, US. Dollars (Six
Million US Dollars) in our bank, while working with a
tourism development centre in west Africa as the head.
Since then, there have not been any trace of claim
from any person as the fund remains dormant in his
account. Although, I kept this information
confidential within my jurisdiction to enable me put
claims and transfer the said amount through a
trustworthy friend overseas whom I shall present to
the transfer department of my bank as the bonafide
next-of-kin to the deceased for a profitable and
successful project. The very issue in this is that the
very next of kin of my client died along in the same
crash so this is all some how and calls for my duty.
And he was raised by a single parent (mother)who is
now late.(r.i.p)so this has made my search so hard
that I have even tried contacting the rotary club to
help out in this but it still failed them. Right now,
our bank is threatening to seal up this deposit if
there is no response soonest as a result of no next of
kin. This could lead to failure, and total forfeit of
my late client's deposits. Please, if you are related
to my client in any way or you know my client's actual
relatives, then re-contact me, if not, I could
interview you and get a little contact of yours to see
if I would have options with you as the transfer
department of my bank is offering me a very little
chance of at least some one with the same last name
and from the same nationality.I do not know you in any
way and wish and pray I am not making a mistake in
letting you know about this.I only got your email
contact on my private search of people of your last
that I could get this help from.I pray the lord would
not let me make any kind of mistake like always
because money is just the route of all evil and doing
this with the wrong person would be the biggest
mistake of my life. I do not want and cannot watch the
deposit be forfeited, as I expect to benefit from it
also. I believe we really need to sort things out. the
very issue here is that you are from the same country
with my client and this might just work out between
us.The very issue in this is that the transfer
department of my bank is saying this transfer must
have to be made to your country and your country alone
.That is then when I can only have an access to my
percentage in this.Then you have to send back to me
70% of the whole fund as the person that introduced
you into this.That is why I need your help because
that is the only way I could have access to this
deposit. All documents and proof to enable you get
this fund will be-carefully worked out.And more , we
are assuring you of 100% risk free and legitimate
involvement. It is expected that the transaction will
run for 12 to 13 bank working days of transfer
proceedings,so your immediate reply is needed with
your interest indicated so that all necessary
procedures will commence. Your reply is highly
expected. Kindly get to me immediately . Thanking you
in anticipation of your co-operation. All I need in
this is my %tage for my work to see this through
because I have suffered for this and deserve to get
paid from this deposit ..
This whole transaction could be done through the
internet communication just incase if you are too busy
to come down here.
May the lord be our strength in this.
Sincerely.
Mr. Tony Chuk
