Subject: private financial consultant
Hello,
I am William Smith, a private financial consultant /Account portfolio manager.
I happen to have managed a Particular account for a Resident Foreigner, here
in The United Kingdom, who accidentally died with his wife and three children
were involved in a car accident along Cardiff Express Road. All occupants of
the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Leaving in our care a reasonable
amount in a Domiciliary United States Dollars Account. The Highly confidential
nature of our client and our Business Confidential
Disposition on Client to client Basis did not warrant us to have an easily
Identifiable next of Kin to this particular Client. I have made several
enquiries to locate any of my Client’s relatives immediate and extended, this
has proved unsuccessful. Hence, I am contacting you. I need you to assist in
securing the money and property Left behind by my client before they get
confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Finance House here in The United
Kingdom where his deposits were lodged. The Finance House has issued
Government Mandatory Formality, notice to provide the Next of Kin or have the
account confiscated within the next one month.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating any of his Relatives for over two
years and convinced that no one Is coming up and having satisfied the
mandatory legal Requirement of Beneficiary/next of kin Notification, I Now
seek a Reliable and Trustworthy person, With your consent and perfect
understanding, to Present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that The
proceeds of this account valued at Twenty One Million, Three Hundred And
Twenty Thousand United States Dollars, interest Inclusive, can be paid into An
account to be provided by You (preferably outside
The United Kingdom Financial Institutions or its Isles), as the perceived Next
Of Kin Legally and Otherwise.
I have all necessary documents to back up these claims As Next of Kin on your
behalf. All I require is your honest cooperation and confidence in me, which I
Believe that it is not easy, as we have not done similar transaction before
and not by reference. Hence the reasons I choose to call this a Deal, as it
will be based on trust to enable us see this transaction through. I guarantee
that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect
you from any breach of the law. I would advise that you give This a positive
consideration and get back to me soon I would be very flexible as well as
considerate in Percentage share that will be given to you for your Assistance.
Upon receipt of your response l will send to you my Private number so that you
can reach me for further Discussion regarding this project. Please send mail
to my private email for security reasons
Best regards
William smith
