From The Desk of Mr. Stanley Hall,
Dear Sir,
STRICTLY A PRIVATE BUSINESS PROPOSAL
This is a proposal in context but Actually an appeal soliciting your
unreserved assistance in consummating An urgent transaction requiring maximum confidence.Though this approach appears desperate, I can assure you that whatever questions you would need to ask or any other thing you will need to know regarding this proposal will be adequately answered to give you a clearer understanding of it, so as to arrive at a successful conclusion.
I am Barr. Stanley Hall, a London based Attorney and Solicitor.
THE PROPOSITION: My late client, An America Mr. Morris Thompson who is
an Oil consultant/ contractor with CPL Petroleum had in a Bank the sum of GBP10.m in a domiciliary account who died on plane crash of Alaska Airlines Flight 261 which crashed on January 31 2000,including his wife and only daughter leaving nobody to claim the money. He named his wife, as the next of kin.
Unfortunately, two of them died in lane crash. He had a closing balance worth £10,000.000.00 (Ten Million British pounds Sterling) with a bank in my country (United Kingdom). Since the tragic incident involving late Morris Thompson and his family, the bank has waited for close to Five years for a next of kin as beneficiary with no success.
Valuable efforts have been made by the bank’s management and myself to
get in touch with any of his Direct or Extended family Members but I personally found out that he died with his wife and their daughter.
The only name of next of kin given to me by Morris Thompson unfortunately was with him in the same flight that crashed, and this is unknown to the bank’s management.
Since it is the Law in Great Britain that at the expiration of Six (6)years, the funds will be marked unclaimable and reverted to the ownership of the British Government if nobody applies to claim the fund, I am taking this advantage in order to better my life and that of my family.I am now seeking your permission and assistance to have you stand as next of kin to late Morris Thompson, so that the money will be released to you as the next of kin.
All documents and proof to enable you get this fund will be carefully worked out by me because all are in my custody.
You can take time and verify from the website as shown herein for confirmation of the crash,

I am assuring you that this transaction and its procedures is 100% legal and risk free involvement. Your share stays while the rest will be for me.
The sharing of the fund between the two of us will be as follows: 30% of the total sum will go to you for your effort and commitment to the success of this transaction. 65% will be for me, and the balance of 5% for the settlementof all local and foreign expenses incurred in the course of this Transaction.
Upon the successful completion of this transfer, I will come to meet with you for disbursements in the ratio stated above, and probably invest my share in any lucrative Business in your country subject to your kind advice.
As soon as I receive an acknowledgement of the receipt of this message in Acceptance, I will immediately start up with the process of claim.
