Subject: OVERSEAS PARTNER
Dear Friend,
The purpose of this letter is to briefly introduce myself. My name is Mr.
Kenneth Clark,I work in executive capacity with Cargo Field Finance And
Securities (Ltd).I joined the services of this company in 1983. I decided to
contact you believing that you will become my overseas Business associate in
acquiring an investment placed under our management more than seven (7)
years ago.
I have worked with this company for over 15 years, within this period of
time I watched with meticulous precision on how government functionaries
move huge sums of money with the aid of their foreign partners abroad, using
our security company.They bring in these consignment and declare the content
as jewelries, Gold, Precious Stones, Family Treasure, Documents,etc.
These people have at one time or the other deposited consignments with us
and their foreign partners, relatives and Next of Kin are Claiming most of
these consignment and a lot more are laying here unclaimed for as much as 7
years, as no available information to anybody except the depositors, and
most of them are dead. Since the inception of the year 2004,
Cargo Field Finance And Securities (Ltd). Management changed the procedure
of claiming of consignments. As soon as you are able to produce all the
information as contained in the file of the company as regard the
consignment,it will be released to you upon demand.
>From our records, more than 70 consignments belonging to these people has
been claimed in the past six months and this is why I am seeking your
co-operation and assistance to help execute this pending deal which has been
unclaimed for so long as I know no one will ever come forward to claim it
because the deceased left no next of kin. The amount in question is very
small compared to what my office has sent overseas for this people through
our overseas correspondent security company.I will provide all the documents
needed for this purpose as I was the account officer in-charge of this
particular transaction.
For the release of the consignment,Our Overseas correspondent will demand
for some documents and the security code of the consignment,you will call on
me to supply you with every detailed Information as regard the
consignment.As soon as they have confirmed it to be correct,the company will
invite you for the collection, or you may insist that the consignment be
delivered to you instead.
I hope to hear from you to enable me provide you with the complete picture
of this deal.
My Regards,
Mr. Kenneth Clark.
