Dear Friend,
PROPOSAL REQUEST FOR YOUR COOPERATION TO ACT AS NEXT OF KIN
I am Dr. Lambert Mann, a personal doctor to Mr. Gill Thomas who used to work with shell development company In Nigeria. On the 21st of April 2004,my client, his wife and their three children were involved in a car accident along shagamu express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to his embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the Internet, to locate any member of his family but of no avail, hence I contact you. I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the money that belongs to my client before they get confiscated or declared Unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged, the Bank where the deceased had an account valued at about US$50 Million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next twenty official working days. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives, for over One month now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since I now have no alternative, so that the proceeds of this account valued at $50 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 Death Certificate of Mr. Gill Thomas 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 as I am already in good contact with the bank for this funds transfer. I only need now to present your information as the next of kin. Please send the following information immediately:
1. Your full legal names, contact address, mobile phone and fax numbers
2. Your date of birth, sex, marital status, occupation and a copy of your passport or driver's license.
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 by my email to enable us discuss further.
We will employ the services of an accredited Attorney to the bank here to obtain affidavit and other necessary legal documents from court for a legal transfer when you respond to my mail.
Please reply urgently with your information through my email: lambertmann@latinmail.com

Dr. Lambert Mann
