For this letter is strictly personal, intimate and confidential.Forgive this unusual manner of contacting you, but this particular letter is of exceptional and very private nature. There is absolutely going to be a great doubt and distrust in your heart in respect of this email,
coupled with the fact that, so many miscreants have taken possession of the Internet to facilitate their nefarious deeds, thereby making it extremely difficult for genuine and legitimate business class persons to get attention and recognition.
There is no way for me to know whether I will be properly understood,but it is my duty to write and reach out to you. For I know that you are the only one that can be trusted to handle this project effectively without making me regret. The recommendation I got concerning you, is
enough to get business started with you,

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 $9million U.S 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.
