Subject: THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY.
Good day friend,
I have 100% taken time to study your very short reply to me. The theme of my consideration now is" TRUST". But at this point, I think I have provided bases for that which you will understand in the future proceeds of this. I think I can consider you a states man who knows his civil duties and who is sincere to himself. Now Let me let you understand why am contacting you in the first place.
My client worked with me for some period of time before his untimely death after we met at a golf course. After his death, I tried my best to trace his relatives as he died along with his entire immediate family but with no success. His last known address was in north London where he lived and worked as a private Contractor to different oil companies .He was raised by a single parent (mum) who is now late(R.I.P) and he was the only child of his mum. I gave up the search for his relatives two years back after going through the embassy and the rotary club because it was costing me so much for nothing and I felt I have reached out enough that one day his relatives will trace me but until now nobody came.
The finance firm where he has his deposit came along with notice after the auditing they had at the end of their last year's work section and issued me a warning to get my late client's beneficiary to claim this deposit or have it liquidated and declared unserviceable by the end of next month as the account has been dormant for a very long time . I have therefore resumed the search since then but to no avail. I have thought it wise to trace anybody with same last name with my client and who will be capable and trust worthy to stand as the beneficiary/next of kin to this gesture. Because the finance firm would only let this fund out to an account that bears the same last name at least with my late client's according to them and not any local account around here. So this is exactly why I am Writing all these to you. The deposit will have to first get to Your account you will provide in the future proceeds on this, Then I will let you have 40% of it all then you have to send
to me 60% back,.This is why trust is the theme on this all. I think this percentage is completely alright because I have Some other people that has helped me out to secure this that I must see to. I have suffered for this and have to get paid accordingly. This is all why I am talking and thinking about complete trust. I need to hear from you comprehensively and see if I can introduce you to the next level involved in this. I am a man of integrity and honour and will not be a part of any arrangement that will contradict the law.For now, I will need you to provide me with these..
Full name.....
Contact address......
Phone and fax numbers......
Date of birth.......
Your kind of work.......
Family size........
You need to have my phone line for a perfect correspondence.
PHONE: +447024018460
Get back to me as fast as you could as we are almost behind the time frame for this.We need to take two steps at a time to make sure oppositions stay two
steps behind us. This proceeding can be fully handled through this internet means just incase you cannot be able to make it down to UK. Note that as a convenience.
Please note also that I do not need you to help me finance this in anyway. Secondly please be of the best intentions towards this and try and save this relationship that is trying to exist between us for the better. I demand you correspond to this email on time and give me a call for better correspondence to see if we can work anything out.
May we have the strength to follow our days..
Best regards,
barr michael clark (Esq)
