very close to him till the point of his death and this puts me in the
position to present a bonafide next of kin since his death,
I have made several inquiries to your embassy to locate any of my
Late’s client close relative but have proved abortive.
My client left the sum of $19.7 million worth of cash with a bank here.
Thus I have been mandated by virtue of my position as his P.A to affect
the release of the properties and cash to any person approved by me.
Since the bank has given me a deadline to produce the Next of kin or
have the account confiscated, it becomes Imperative for me to solicit
your assistance to receive this money in your account for me.
All i need from you is your honesty and confidentiality to see this
through.
