Dear FRIEND
I write to seek your cooperation as my foreign partner
and your assistance
to enable me to own properties and invest in the
stable economy of your
country. I apologize if this mail message does not
suit your personal or
business ethics.
My names are JAMIE OLIVER an attorney to a deceased
Immigrant property
magnate who was based in the U.K., Also referred to as
my client.
On the 25th of July 2000, my client, his wife and
their two Children died in
the Air France concord plane crash bound for New York
in their plan for a
world cruise, Since then, I have been managing his
properties here in the
U.K. and some of his properties, which he put out for
sale. Which I
monitored the payment as his attorney, has been bought
and paid for. Now the
money paid was deposited into his account. 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 his bank.
Particularly, the bank has issued me a notice to
provide any of his next of
kin or have the account confiscated within a short
time. My late client (MR
ANDREW CLAUDE)has an account valued at $17,700.000.000
dollars. Since I have
been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for some
time now, and with the
bank giving me deadline, I now seek your consent to
present you as the next
of kin of the deceased, so that the proceeds of this
account valued at
$17,700.000.000 dollars can be paid to you and then
you, and I can share the
money. 50% and 40% for you amounting I have all
necessary information that
can be used to back up any Claim we may make.
All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us
see this deal
through. I guarantee that this will be executed under
a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of
the law. Trust me, as
his attorney; this is a risk-free relationship.
Send me your full names and address, telephone and fax
numbers to enable us
discuss further about this transaction.
A swift acknowledgement on the receipt of this mail
would be appreciated.
Please reply to my official
email:attorneyjamie@lawyer.com
I remain obliged,
JAMIE OLIVER
