REF: NEXT OF KIN
ATTN: BENEFICIARY CLIENT
PRESIDENT/CEO
I am Benny Coker, an attorney at law. I am the personal attorney to
Andreas M.Schranner who
was the President/Chief Executive Officer of SHV Holdings and also into real
estate referred as
my client. Mr.Andreas M.Schranner died from an air crash along with his wife
their daughter and
her husband and two other children were involved on the 31 July,2000 in an
German Concorde
AF4590 ghastly plane crash from western German city of Moenchengladbach with
other passengers
on board.On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a
WILL, and all
attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless
You can confirm this from this from the website below.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
All passengers in the plane unfortunately lost their lives, May their gentle
souls rest in perfect peace Amen. Since then I have made several enquiries
to locate any of my clients extended relatives,as his familes to whom he
willed his assets were also involved in the crash. But this has also proven
unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, to locate any
member of his relatives hence I contacted you. I have contacted you to
assist me in retrieving the funds in a certain investment account of his
valued at about US$25.6 M (TWENTY FIVE MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED
DOLLARS)
I therefore seek your utmost assistance to be able to clear these funds and
them moved to
another security company before they get confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the authorities / the security company in Europe where
these huge deposits are lodged. However, his security company has issued me
a final notice {as his attorney} to provide them with any of his family
members or the account runs the risk of confiscation in the nearest future.
This to me would amount to a huge waste of fund. Therefore, on this premise
I seek your assistance to secure as it were this fund. Upon my receipt of
your positive response, we shall then discuss the necessary modalities. I
have all necessary information and legal instruments for this claim.
Note that for your assistance you will be entitled to share 45 % of the
total inheritance while
5% will be set aside for any unexpected expenditure and 50 % for me and my
colleagues. I
consequently request your maximum assistance and approvals to facilitate the
clearance of his
consignment and acquire his properties before they get confiscated or
enthusiastically declared
unserviceable by the authorities and the security company in Madrid Spain,
where these huge
funds were deposited as family personal treasures.
Finally, I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will exempt
both of us from any breach of the law. Your involvement in this is only
known to me. I crave
your indulgence to give your best shot.
Awaiting your urgent response
Best Regards,
BENNY H.N COKER Snr (Esq.)
