And I have been monitoring this account since I discovered this information.
In this case I have concluded to contact you, and if you are reliable to execute this transaction with me, then I will instruct you on how to claim these funds as the next of kin to the late Mr.T.Thompson,so that the funds can be transfer from the A/C, if only you can co-operate with me and not to betray me at the end when the transfer of the funds has been made.
As the General Auditor Of CITI BANK, I have the power to influence the release of the funds to you as the next of kin to the account, with the correct information concerning the account, which I shall give you. There is practically no risk involved, The transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of law. And the sharing of the funds is 65% for me, 30% for you and the remaining 5% will be for expenses incurred during the transaction.
