Internet and locate any member of his family but of no avail. Hence, am
contacting you. I need you to assist in securing the money and property left
behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by
the bank where his huge deposits were lodged.Particularly, the bank where

hundred thousand United States Dollars{$5}.
The bank has issued a notice to provide the Next of Kin or have the account
confiscated within the next one month. Since I have been unsuccesful in
locating the relatives for over one year now I seek your consent to present
you as the next of kin of the deceased since you have to bear the same
surname so that the proceeds of this account valued at $5 million Dollars
can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money.50% to me and 50%
to you.I have all necessary documents to back up claims as Next of Kin on
your behalf. 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 from any breach of the law.
