Subject: PARTNERSHIP
FROM MR J. J PETERS
1 CANADA SQURE ,
CANARY WHARF, LONDON E14
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM .
Dear Partner,
My name is Mr.JOHN J PETERS. I work with One of the FINANCE HOUSE here in
London as an Account-Officer. I hereby solicit your assistance for an urgent
and very confidential business, which will benefit both of us. On 11th June
1998, a Las-Vegas Chess Organizer based here in London by name Mr.Ken Horne
made a (Fixed Deposit) in my Bank for twelve calendar months,valued at BPS4.8
million (Four Million, eight-hundred thousand British Pounds Sterling).
Upon maturity, I sent a routine Notification to his Address but, got no response.
After a month, I sent the last & final reminder and discovered that he died
along with his wife Gwen in a Plane Crash on August 20th 1999. On further
investigation, I also discovered that he died without making a "WILL", and
all attempts I made to trace his Next of Kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that he did not declare
any Next of Kin or relation in all his official documents in his file, including
his Bank Deposit in my Bank. Right now, the money is yet to be claimed by
his Next Of Kin. As it is, no one will ever come forward to claim this money.
Hence, I've been unable to locate his Next Of Kin for over 4 years, I seek
your consent to present your Name to my Bank as the NEXT OF KIN of the deceased.
For us to claim this money in your Name will not pose any problem/s for us
because, a lawyer will handle everything for us. I shall also send you the
Account Documents from his Account file and you shall contact my Bank to
effect a Next of Kin claim and get the Fund paid to you as his sole Beneficiary/Next
of Kin.
To do this, I will hire the services of a Lawyer who will prepare the necessary
documents here in London which will state that you are the Next of Kin to
the deceased as required by Law. The Attorney will Authenticate the Notarization
of the "WILL" and also obtain a LETTER OF ADMNISTRATION/PROBATE from the
Ministry of Justice in your favour for the transfer of the fund to you.
Do not be afraid of anything because, it is 100% risk-free. All documentation
for this transaction will be handled by the Attorney legally here in London.
To share the money among us will be in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% for
you. If you are interested, please respond immediately via the private e-mail
address below.
(jjpeters@myway.com)
Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant
informations that will help you understand the transaction. All I require
from you is to be honest & maintain utmost CONFIDENTIALITY of the business
until we secure the money in your Bank Account. Remember also that we have
a deadline to claim the fund from my bank before it will be confiscated as
unclaimed bill.
Awaiting your urgent response.
MR JOHN J PETERS (Account-Officer).
