Dear Mullmacher,
I read your mail with many thanks.
The best steps you are to take right now is to provide me the following information below:
Full & native name:
Address, private phone & fax number:
Date of birth & place of birth:
Occupation:
Scanned copy of your international passport/drivers license:
Father’s first and second name:
Father’s occupation:
As soon as you provide this information, I will proceed to the Court (Royal Crown Court of England) to meet with a lawyer who will arrange the marriage certificate that you are to use to contact my late father attorney so he can provide other documents, which my late father used in depositing the funds with the Bank after providing the documents to you, he will also give you the contact information of the Bank and the person in charge of the deposited funds.
Note that this marriage certificate will cost money and since the both of us are going to share the money 50%!! It means we will both pay whatever the expenses together for the bank to transfer the funds to you.
I will be looking forward to hear from you with the required information.Best Regards
Grace Smith
