Dear Friend,
I am Barrister Kamala King, a Solicitor and Advocate, the personal attorney
to late Mr. Keith Hughes a National of America, who used to be a private
contractor with the Shell Petroleum Development Company in Saudi Arabia,
herein after shall be referred to as my client. On the 21st of April 2001,
he and his wife with their three children were involved in an auto crash;
all occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives.
Since then, I have made several enquiries with his country's embassies to
locate any of my clients extended relatives: This has proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to contact you with
this business partnership proposal. I have contacted you to assist in
repatriating a huge amount of money left behind by my client before they get
confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Finance/Security Company where
this huge deposit was lodged. The deceased had a deposit valued presently at
$12million US Dollars and the Company has issued me a notice to provide his
next of kin or Beneficiary by Will otherwise have the account confiscated
within the next thirty 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 / Will
Beneficiary to the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at
$12Million US dollars can be paid to you. This will be disbursed or shared
in these percentages, 60% to me and 40% to you.I have all necessary legal
documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make. All I require
is your honest Co-operation, Confidentiality and Trust to enable us see this
transaction through.
I guarantee you that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with
me urgently by E-mail: collinmich1@post.cz. I am presently in London.
Please, provide me the following:
1. Full Name
2. Your Telephone Number and Fax Number
3. Your Contact Address.
Your urgent response will be highly anticipated and appreciated.
Best regards,
Barrister Kamala King.
