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 Khalid Useni , 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 a
fixed 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 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 willcompensate 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 Khalid Useni
