hence I contacted you. I contacted you to assist in repatriating the money
left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the security company where my client lodge these huge
deposits.

US$13.2 Million US Dollars onceal in box deposited with them as
family"TREASURE"for safety, has issued me a notice to provide the next of
kin or have the consignment sized within a short period of time.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over some years
now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased
since you share the same surname him so that the proceeds of this amount of
US$13.2million can be paid to you and then you and me can share the oney,70%
to me and 30% to you I have all necessary legal documents that can be used
to back up any claim we may make, 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 the law. Please reach me on this my private phone no: 00233 244
