Dear friend,
I am Barrister, Michael Dunn, a solicitor at law.
I am the personal attorney to MR MARK DANIELS............,
a National of your country who works in England
he is also known and referred to as my
Client. On the 21st of August 2003,my client, his wife
and their three children were involved in a car
accident on a summer holiday along High Road Buckhurst
Hill England. Unfortunately all the entire family lost
their lives in the tragedy. Since then, I have made
several enquires to his embassy to locate any of my
clients extended relatives but all my efforts proved
unsuccessful and to no avail.
After these unsuccessful attempts failed, I decided to
track his last name in the Internet to locate any
member of his family or his national hence I contacted
you.
Now my contacts to you is to assist me in repatriating
his estate in dublin and the money which is been
lodged in a security/courier company in a trunk box
in London and, before the money in the box
will be confiscated or declared unserviceable by the
security/courier company where he deposit this money
valued about $10,500,000 More importantly, the
security/courier company where the deceased client
deposited these huge sums of money has served me a
write of notice to provide the NEXT OF KIN of my
client or the box(money) will be confiscated.
Since I have tried and failed on several occasions in
locating his relatives I am now seeking for your
consent to present you as the next of kin to the
deceased so that the money will be paid to you while I will
come over to your country for the sharing. I will take
60% while you will take 35%.and 5% will be for
expences incured during the transaction.
I have all the necessary legal documents that can be
use to backup any claim we may want.
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us
see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be
executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you and I from any breach of the law.
Finally, if you are interested in this mutual beneficial transaction.
Please furnish me with your contact phone and fax number to enable me
speak you immediately for More information.
I await your urgent response to this message.
Yours sincerely,
Michael Dunn
