Subject: NEXT OF KIN !!!
BARRISTER JAMES ONYEZE
44, KOFO ABAYOMI AVENUE,
VICTORIA ISLAND,
LAGOS - NIGERIA.
Dear Friend,
I am Barrister James Onyeze, a Solicitor. I am the Personal Attorney to
Mr. Steve, who used to work with Chevron Oil Development Company in
Nigeria. On the 21st of April, 2002, his wife and their three children
were involved in a car accident along Abuja Express Road.
Unfortunately, they all lost their lives in the event of the accident .
Since then I have made several enquiries to your Embassy to locate any
of my client Relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these
several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over
the Internet to locate any member of his family but to no avail, hence,
I contacted you to assist in repatriating the money left behind by my
client in a Security Company.
Particularly, the Security Company where the deceased deposited the
US$15 Million (Fifteen Million United States Dollars only).
Consequently, this Security Company issued me a notice to provide the
Next of Kin to claim the US$15 Million (Fifteen Million United States
Dollars only) in their custody within the next ten official working
days. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over
2 years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of
the deceased to claim the fund as the Next of Kin to him so that the
fund will be transferred to your account by the Security Company.
Upon receipt of the fund, I will come over to your country to meet with
you for the disbursement of the fund and then you and I will share the
money inthis order: 55% will be for me, 40% will be for you, while 5%
will be use don expenses incurred.
I have all the necessary legal documents that can back our claim we may
make with the Security Company.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 from any breach of t! he law. Please, get in touch with me by my
secured and confidential email address at
(onyezejames2005@yahoo.com.hk] to enable me clarify you further .
Best regards .
Barrister James (Esq)
