Subject: TRANSACTION BREAKDOWN
Dear Singh,
Thank you very much for your quick response to my proposal. I can assure you that you will not in any way regret your involvement with me. We can do this if we join our hands together and work in good faith.
Firstly I want to assure you that this transaction is 100% risk and hitch free and also you will need to assure me that I will have unlimited access to my 50% of the funds(US$15M) once the funds has been transferred into your account because the funds is going to be transfered into your account and not mine so you are the one to assure me that you will give my own part to me.
In light of the above, I will need you to provide me with the following details:
Your name and address in full;
Your home telephone and office telephone numbers
Your fax numbers
A detailed profile of yourself and company if any.
A valid identification.
As soon as I get the information I will have my lawyer go ahead to procure the relevant documents which will confer you with the rights of the next of kin to the deceased and as such I requested your information above as this documents will be documented at the probate office here in London so as to give this venture legal backing and authenticity.
Upon receipt of this information the lawyer would go ahead and procure this documents and as soon as we have secured the documents,I will help you make official application to my bank on the strength of the documents that the funds should be released to you as the bona-fide next of kin to the deceased
Immediately the document is ready and approved by my bank, it will be forwarded to the bank that is presently with the funds to release the funds to you as the bonafide next of kin, You need not to worry as I would use my position to facilitate the approval and the subsequent release of the funds to you.
Moreso, you have to bear in mind that this venture requires mutual trust and as such you have to assure me of your honesty and integrity before we commence this transaction. The procurement of this documents will cost me quite an amount of money but I am unperturbed because we stand to gain a lot more once we conclude this project.
Ensure that you keep this transaction confidential and do not disclose to anyone because of the confidentiality nature of this transaction and my work.
Looking forward to a good business relationship with you and hoping to hear from you soonest my good friend.
Best regards,
Mr David Palmer
