Dear Sir,
PROPOSAL
My Name is Barrister Peter Hilary of the above address and personal Attorney to one Mr.Peter craig a national of your country now late, he died on his way
to a seminar in auto crash on the 10th day of October 2002. My late client was the Chief Executive officer of {African development Oil Company} for 25 years and was retired on the 30th day of September 2002.
He was re-contracted as a petroleum consultant to the company before this unfortunately incident occured on the above date just after a month. He left all his
credentials with my chamber for the drafting of his new contract agreement that will bind his new contract with african development company.
Before his death my client made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve calendar months valued at US$7.5M with the International Trust bank of Nigeria
plc with open beneficiary and No one will ever come forward to claim this fund since his sudden death and according to Nigerian banking law the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian government if
the account owner is certified dead and nobody comes forward to claim it after five years.
So far the bank has just written my chamber a routine notification to provide the next of kin of my late peter Craig or have the account confiscated within the next ten official working days.
I would like to appoint you as the next of kin so that I can procceed with forwarding the sum of(US$7.5M)to you for safe keeping and our sharing on 50% 50 basis.
I have all the necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make. 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 acknowledge this letter if you're minded to assist through my financial attorney's mail (bzpoganne@yahoo.co.uk ) He will handle the whole process as
soon as you respond back to this proposal indicating your interest to assist.
Thanks for your anticipated reply
Sincerely yours,
Barrister Peter Hilary
