Subject: Barrister Chanka A. Dillis
Dear,Butcho
I am Barrister Chanka A. Dillis, a solicitor at law. I am the
personal attorney to Mr. Butcho B. Bhagat,a native of your country, who
used to work with Shell Oil Development Company in Nigeria.Here in
after shall be referred to as my client. On the 21st of April 2003, my
client, his wife and their three children were involved in a car
accident alongs agbama express road. All occupants of the vehicle
unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several
enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended
relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided
to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any memberof his
family hence I contacted you. I have contacted you to assist in
repatriating the money and properties left behind by my client before
they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this
huge deposit were lodged.Particularly, the AssuranceBank Limited where
the deceased had an account valued at about US$10.5 Million has issued
me a notice to
provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the
six(6)weeks.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over
Twenty three (27) months now, I seek your consent to present you as
the next of kin of the deceased since you has the same surname with
late David . By presenting your names as the next of kin, the
inheritance will be transfer to your name as the sole beneficary and
the proceeds of this account valued at US$10.5 Million can be
paid to your account. You and I can share the(INHERITANCE) money 60%
to me and 40% to you. I have all necessary legal documents that can
be used to backup any claim we may make.Besides i'm the legal
signatory to the account and it is the duty of the chamber to give
clearance to any person standing as the next of kin. My involvment
into the transaction makes the claim risk free and legitimate.
All I need from you is your honest co-operation to enable us see this
deal through. I guarantee that this inheritance transaction will be
executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from
any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me immediately as I do
not have much time in my disposal. Call me as soon as you get this
email and reply to my private email box :chankadilli@yahoo.com
