Subject: Can you handle this?
Dear SIr/Madam,
I am Barr. Jeffery Daniels., a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney to MR SMITH , a National of your country who works with a petroleum Company in Holland and he is known and referred to as my Client. On the 21st of August 2001,my client, his wife and their three children were involved in a car accident on a summer holiday along High Road Buckhurst Hill London. 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 Holland and the money which is been lodged in a security/courier company in Holland and, before the money in the box will be confiscated or declared unserviceable by the security/courier company where he deposited this money valued $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 since you have the same last name with him, so that the money will be paid to you while I will come over to your country for the sharing and investment. I will take 50% while you will take 40%.and 5% will be for expences incured during the transaction and the remaining 5% will be donated to any charity organisation of our choice.I have all the necessary legal documents that can be use to backup any claim we may want.
All I require is your honest co-operation 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 this business interest you, please get in touch with me immediately via my private email address for security reasons; (jeffdaniels@lawyer.com). or call me at (+27-739594946) as i will welcome messages that come only from my private email address.Also indicate to me your contact phone and fax number to enable me call you immediately for More information.
