Subject: Urgent Response !
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Femi Cole, a lawyer with the Association of
Catholic Lawyers,a legal Solicitor and I was the
Personal Attorney and legal adviser to Mr.Peter
Smack,a national of your country, who was a
contractor with oil companies in West/Africa.On the
7th of April 2002, my client,his wife and their two
children were involved in a car accident along Uyo
Express Road.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their
lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to
your embassy to locate any of my clients extended
relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided
to trace his relatives over the Internet, to locate
any member of his family but of no avail,hence I
contacted you.
Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the the
relatives for over a year now, I seek your consent to
present you as the next of kin of my late client since
you have the same last name so that the proceeds of
this account valued at 8.5million dollars can be paid
to you.I have all necessary legal documents that can
be used to back up any claim we may make.
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us
see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be
executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you from any breach of the law.I am not
imposing this transaction on you,It is a thing of self
willingness,so it is either you write me back and tell
me you are willing and I will know the next step to
take because this fund must be claimed either with
your help or the help of somebody else.I will require
your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal
through.I guarantee that this will be executed under
a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from
any breach of the law.
Also I shall require your contact details as your Full
Names; your Contact Address; your Telephone # for a
conviction of interest.Contact me via my private email
(femicole56@yahoo.co.uk) to enable us discuss further.
Best Regards,
Barr: Femi Cole
