Subject: PLEASE RESPOND(NOT JUNK)
I humbly crave your indulgence in sending you this mail,if
the contents does not meet with your personal and business
ethics,I appologise in advance. I am . Barrister Adiva Azizah,I
am an advocate and solicitor at law. However, I was moved
to contact you base on the present situation of this
oppurtunity which i may say that it is god given
timeoffer.there is a foreigner who lived here in Dubai ( U.A.E)
long ago , and it happen that the man registered to
me as his private/personalattorney. he was a fisherman as
well as a one time secret agent in lifting oil to overseas
for their former minisers.in the month of actober,2000. my
client died with his wife and their only daughter when
their ship capsized in high sea.but my client made afixed
dopsit valued at (USD$5.9M) and upon the maturity this bank
started contacting him but no response. Conseqently, the
bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have
the account confiscated after six or seven years, as the law of
this land says.Since then I have made several enquiries to
your thier Embassy to locate any of my clients extended
relatives, this has also proved 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 you are you are not
going to let me down,and you have to be smart to act when is needed
and also bears the same surname, so that the
proceeds of this account valued at $5.9m can be paid to you
and then you and me can share the money.I have arranged all
necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any
claim we may make waiting for your permission to submite
them to the bank on your behalf for the approval of the
payment.All I require is your honest cooperation 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 get in touch with me
both through email (emailaddress) to enable us discuss further.
finally, you have to maintain the high secrecy this
business demands as the Bank does not know that I am using
you to claim the money on my own, besides, I will
compensate you with 30%of the total money for your help and
assistance,and you will still help me again, because I
want to invest my own part of the money in your country
base on your advice.
So, if this terms are acceptable to you, go ahead and send me your
personal information such as;
1- Your Full Name
2- Your Present Nationality
3- Your Age.
4- Your telephone Number
Upon getting this, I will draft an application which you will forward to
the bank, after which I will get a lawyer who will get other required
legal documents that will back up the application for this claim on your
behalf.
thanks as I await your reply
best regards,
Barrister Adiva Azizah
