$15million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have
the account confisicated within the next ten official working days. since i
have been unsuccesfull in locating the the relatives for over 2 years now I
seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since
you are from the same country so that the proceeds of this account valued at
$15 million dollars can be paid to you and then you and me can share the
money.
55% to me and 40% to you,while 5% should be for expenses or tax as your
government may require, I have the ertificate of deposit that can be used to
back up any claim we may make. All I require is your honest cooperation to
enable us see this dealt through.
