Subject: Re: Assistance
Dear Sir.
I am Barrister Abbas Duruh (Esq.), a Senegalese Solicitor & Financial
Attorney/Consultant.I decided to send this first letter write through
email while subsequent ones would be secured. I was the personal attorney
to late
Mr. Essam Panak a foriegn contractor who died among many others in a
car accident along Sicap Express Road in Dakar Senegal.
Before his death, he was an expatriate mining consultant and
Gold/diamond machant within West Africa sub-region. Mr. Essam Panak here-in-after
referred as my client was also a category "A"contractor for Senegalaise
National Petroleum Corporation.He satisfactorily executed some
contracts for Senegalaise National Petroleum Corporation and the sum of Twenty
million United States of American Dollars is an outstanding debt owe to
him by the Corporation. Unfortunetely,it is after his death that
Contract Award & Suppervisory Committee of the Petroleum Corporation
approved this payment and sent notification to my chambers in accordance
with my client's instructions-that any correspondence in respect to his
dealings with the Petroleum Corporation must go through my chambers.
The Petroleum Corporation has consequently asked me to contact his next
of kin to claim this outstanding contract fee owe to him. All attempts
to trace his next of kin(s), even through search in the internet, were
fruitless. I also discovered that my client did
not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents with the
Oil industry. I have contacted you to assist in claiming this money
from the oil corporation
for benefit of two of us before it is confisicated or declared
unserviceable as warned by the petroleum corporation. This claim would not be
suspicious since i am the authority to nominate my client's next of kin.
I discovered your contact during my tidious search in the internet for
a legitimate next of kin of my late client.
Note that this transaction is simple and 100% risk free because I am
the authority to nominate my client's next of kin and secondly, I will
provide legal documentations
that will present and authenticate you as the true next of kin as we
intend to claim. I wish to point out that after the claims, I would want
10% of this money to be shared among some charity organizations, while
the remaining 90% would be shared equally between us after deduction of
expenses expected to be incured by both parties in the course of this
claim.
Most importantly,I would also require your assistance towards investing
my share in your country or anywhere as you may advice.If you are
interested, please contact me immediately with your private details which
shall include telephone/fax numbers. Upon your response, I shall provide
you with more details and how we shall proceed with this claims. I
expect you to observe utmost confidentiality and be rest assured that this
transaction would be profitable for both of us. It will take us about
5(five) day to complete this claim if there is no delays on your side.
Awaiting your urgent reply.
Thanks & Best Regards
Barrister Abbas Duruh
