next-of-kin has come forward to laysafe keeping in my company. Since his death none of his relations or next-of-kin has come forward to lay claims for this property as the heir, and this is basically the reason why I am contacting you.

Upon this discovery, I now seek your permission to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased as all documentations will be carefully worked out by me for the funds to be released in your favour as the beneficiary's next of kin.

in your favour before you can personally apply and appear for the claim. I shall be compensating you with 30% of the total money while 10% will be for any expenses required and the rest will be mine on final conclusion of this project. Please note that your share stays while the rest shall be for my investment purposes. If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you. I await your urgent mail. Best Regards, Bernard Molina.
