This proposal to you,is to release the money to you
as the next of kin or
Business Partner to the desease for safety and
subsequent Since we got information about his death,
the bank have been expecting his Next

cannot release it unless
somebodyapplies for it as next of kin or relative to
the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines.
But unfortunately, we learnt that Morris died
alongside with hisNext Of kin, his wife, Thelma, and his daughter
Sheryl, who passed on with him at the plane crash leaving
nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery
that I and the Bank's Attorney, who controls

The Required information are your safe contact

for providing an account, 10% will be
set aside for expenses incured on both side during
the business and 60% will be for us.
Thereafter, I and my Partner will visit your country
for disbursement according to the percentages indicated above. For
the smooth and immediatetransfer of this fund to you as arranged,
you are implored to apply first to the lawyer as a business
partner,Then Office, Telephone and

charge of ALL Willed- Fund Documents/Diskette. He is in a good
psition to change All paper works in your favour as the Next Of Kin
