Good day,
I apologise for this unsolicited nature of my email, it was
out of desperation and eagerness that made me contact you.
Following my previous research, I am very happy to inform
you that I have a good news for you as regards to the
current development of my deceased client who bears the same
last name with you and he is from your country,who was my
trusted, wealthy client who died in the January 27th Bomb
blast here in my country.
In respect to introduction my name is Barrister Luke Rotimi
a legal attorney with great vision as I am the private and
most trusted attorney to my client. However my Client was a
very wealthy business tycoon formerly working with the
Nigeria Airways for over 20 years till this date before his
sudden death in the January 27th 2002 Bomb blast that rocked
his residence in Steven Toba street, G.R.A Ikeja, here in my
country, in view of this please kindly view the BBC web page
below to know the reality of this urgent matter that I have
contacted you for.On Sunday, 27th of January 2002, my client
were involved in a terrible bomb blast that took lives of
innocent souls and unfortunately over 1000 people lost their
lives and my client and his family were part of the people
that lost their lives. In view of this please view the web
page
below:http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/2698081.stm
Am speaking authoritatively and I am very happy to let you
know and understand that my client left three Million eight
hundred and seventy thousand (USD3.87M) United States of
American dollars presicely here in the Oceanic Bank of
Nigeria Plc which is the main point to drive home at. I have
made so many attempts to locate any of my clients relative
but all attempts have proved unsuccessful that's why I am
counting on you and I need you to give me good courage and
faith that we can work as two partners in progress in coming
to the realization of this transaction for the betterment of
both us and our Families.
Since, I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives
for over 2 years now, I seek your prompt consent to present
you asthe next of kin of the deceased since you have the
same name so that the proceeds of this account valued at
(USD3.87 M) dollars precisely can be transferred into your
account and then you and I can share the money according to
any agreed ratio because this fund is almost maturing to
confiscation.
All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see
this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed
under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any
breach of the law.Please enclose your other names and your
phone numbers in your response as soon as you show keen
interest. Be rest assured that as you comply to my
directives this transaction will be executed in a legitimate
arrangement that will prevent you from any breach of the law
in your country as it would be backed with official
documentation endorsed by the supreme court of Nigeria to
legalize the claims of this transaction.Finally, all I need
from you is your honest co-operation as this transaction is
not related to Imagination or otherwise but pure and for
real. I crave your indulgence to present you as the
surviving next of kin to the deceased so that we can reap
from the fruit of this old man's labour before some group of
bad and corrupt leaders in my country get rid of this money
and share it for their own selfish interest instead of both
of us sharing it for the betterment of ourselves and our
families. I am awaiting your Prompt response with some good
news!!! Thanks and God. bless you.
Truly yours
Barrister Luke Rotimi
