Subject: Get back to me...Mcminn
Dear Friend,
Please, do not be offended if this message comes to you as I ought to have
sought your consent and approval before e-mailing this proposal I acted as I
did due to the importance and urgency of this business.Which ever way you
may look at it, let it please you to respond quickly either negatively or
positively.
I am Barrister Joel Willams,a solicitor at law,personal attorney to
Mr.W.H.Mcminn,who used to work with Shell development Company in Lome Togo.
Here in after shall be referred to as my client. On the 21st of September
2003, my client,his wife and their two children were involved in a car
accident along Kara-Sokode expressway while arriving from a Holiday to Lome.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives.
All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives. Since then I
have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives,
this has also prooved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful
attempts,I decided to track his last name over the Internet,to locate any
member of his family hence I contacted you.
However,i contacted you to assist in repartrating the fund valued at US$10.5
million left behind by my client before it gets confisicated or declared
unserviceable by the BANK where this huge amount were deposited. The said
BANK LOME has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have his
account confisicated within the next twenty one official working days.
Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for over 2years
now, I seek the consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased
since you have the same last names, so that the proceeds of this account can
be paid to you.
Therefore, on receipt of your positive response, we shall then discuss the
sharing ratio and modalities for transfer. I have all necessary information
and legal documents needed to back you up for claim.
All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this
transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me for more details.
Best regards,
Barrister Joel Willams.
