Dear Sir,
I am Mr. Fred Kuba, a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney to Mr. Alfredo Ramirez, a foreign national, who was a contractor in South Africa. On the 21st of April 1999, my client, his wife and their two children were involved in a car accident in which all occupants of the vehicle died.
My client (Alfredo) deposited as family belongings in a bank in South Africa, the sum of $17.2 Million, with the hope of transferring it to his country as soon as he is on leave.
Since his death, I have made several enquiries to through his country's embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, but this attempt so far has been unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family and that didn't work.I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Bank where the deposit was made.
Now the Bank has issued me a notice to provide the Next of Kin or have the money confiscated within the next twenty- one (21) official working days.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 2 years now. I seek your consent to present you as the Next of Kin of the deceased since you have the same last name, so that the proceeds of this deposit (17 Million, Two Hundred thousand United States Dollars) are sent to you for own benefit. All legal documents to aid the claim for this fund and to prove your relationship with the deceased will be arranged for. Your help will be appreciated with 25% of the total sum. All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us seeing this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please accept my apologies, keep my confidence and disregard this email if you do not appreciate this proposition I have offered you. However, if you do, please include your phone and fax number in your response for better communication.
You can reply me through my preferred email address:
God bless you and your family.
Best regards,
Mr. Fred Kuba
(Tel: 27-73-880-8491.)
