Subject: Re.Integrity Chambers.
Dear sir,
With due respect and humility, I write to you irrespective of the fact that you don't know me. I got your contact through the Internet, when I was making inquiry for foreign assistance.
I am Barrister Dave Becky of Integrity Chambers & Associates, with registered office at No:27 Avenue de la liberte,Pisca-Burkinafaso. I am an International Legal Practitioner and a Consultant to Mr.A.Toufik, a Lebanese Importer of Textiles and Automobiles, based here in Ouagadougou Burkinafaso,for the past fifteen years.
Unfortunately, my client Mr.A.Toufik, and his family died in the ill-fated plane crash involving a Boeing 727 UTA chartered flight that took off from Cotonou, Republic of Benin and crashed into the Atlantic ocean on Thursday, 25 december 2003.
For details of the plane crash, please visit:

Before the untimely death of my client, he made a fixed security deposit, totaling US$7.2M (Seven Million two Hundred Thousand Dollars) with a Finance Company here.
The money is due to mature on 27th January 2006, and should be claimed by the depositor or his next of kin within 14 working days, else the fund will go to the state government as unclaimed bills.
I must confess to you that if I do not find a way to claim this funds from the Finance Institution, I will be doing the greatest injustice to my late friend and his family.
This is why I decided to browse extensively through the internet, in search of a reliable contact person who can stand in as a next of kin of my late friend and client so we can have this funds retrieved and invested judiciously.
There are no risks involved as I am the only person who has access to my client's documents. This transaction shall be 100% risk free, I guarantee.
The Finance Institution has just sent a reminder to my late client through me as his attorney, informing him of the maturity of his fund so I suggest we expedite action on this.
Once you accept this offer, your share shall be subject to negotiations.
Reply urgently, as we must conclude this transaction and have these funds transferred to you within 10 working days.
Please, do reply immediately so that we can proceed.
Best Regards,
Barrister Dave Becky.
Integrity Chambers & Associates
