Compliments!
I barrister Abel Dabul have decided to bestow this trust on you, which I
pray you will not ignore or betray.I appologize in advance for any
inconviniences this may cause you. I am Barrister Abel Dabul the Personal
Attorney to late Mr George K.Marshal, who was a contractor here in Benin
Rep. Who, on December 2003 with his entire family perished in the Air-Crash
on board From Cotonou. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3348109.stm
As a matter of fact, my client made a fixed deposit Amount, valued at
(USD$10.7M) with a Bank here in Benin Rep, and upon the duration time of
their agreement,his bank started contacting him but no response.
Conseqently, the Bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin to the
deceased as his personal attorney or have his account confiscated after
four years as it is in the law of this country.
Since then, I have made several contacts to His country's Embassy in order
to locate any of my clients extended relatives which had also been
unsuccessful. Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for
over two years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of
the deceased since none of his relatives were no where to be found so that
the proceeds of this account valued at $10.7m could be transfered into your
account, thereafter, we will both share it in percentage according to our
contributions to boost the success of this great transaction. I have all the
necessary legal documents that can be used to back up all the claims we will
make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us make this great
benefiting transaction successfully.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that
will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me as
fast as possible through phone and mail also to enable us discuss further
the progress of this business.
With best wishes,
Hon:Abel Dabul Esq,
Senior advocate of Benin(SAB).
