the Supreme Court of Togo
No 16 Boka Ajololo.
Lome Togo
ATTN: Gerard Vloemans,
I am Barrister Omiesam Bapakaye,a solicitor at law and a personal attorney to Late MR M.A.Vloemans, herein after shall be referred to as my client.My client worked as an independent contractor to the Shell Development Company here in Lome Togo.
On the 2nd of December 2003 my client, his wife and their only daughter were involved in a car accident along Bagida express Road and all occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives.
Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessfull. I have contacted you to assist in repartrating fund valued at Two Million Six Hundred United States Dollars .($2.6,000,000.00) left behind by my client with Eco Bank here in Lome Togo before it gets confisicated or declared unserviceable by the Bank where this amount Was deposited.
The Director of the Eco Bank contacted me on friday 15-08-2004 and asked that I as the attorney Of the Death person should present either his cousins or his next of kin so that they will release and transfer the fund left in their custody to them.
Ever since then, I have made several attempts to locate any of his cousins or next of kin so that they will come forward to put in claims to the said fund but unfortunately, I discovered that in all his files with my chambers,he never metioned having any relatives nor cousin's.
After several attempts to trace any of his relative,I decided to track his last name over the internet in search of his cousins hence I contacted you.
One fact remains clear,that anybody I present to the Bank as his next of kin, shall inherit the fund and it is based on this fact that I ask you to get back to me immediately so that we both will discuss on terms of pertnership in this issue so that I will forward your name to the bank as his legitimate next of kin backed up with a sworn affidavit of oaths from the magistrate court of Togo.
Be advised that this transaction is 100% risk-free as this transaction will remain sealed at the conclusion of which will not take more than Three weeks for the money to be release and transfer to your account. I await your immediate response so that I will give you a more comprehensive details as regards to this transaction.
Awaiting For Your Quick Response
