Since the death of my client in May, 2002, I have written several letters to the embassy with an intent to locate any of his extended relatives who shall claim and stand as beneficiary of his abandoned personal estate and all such efforts have been to no avail.
Moreso, I have received official letters in the last few weeks suggesting a likely proceeding for confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in line with existing laws by the bank in which my client deposited the sum of US$4.9M dollars (Four
Million,Nine Hundred Thousand US dollars)
On this note I decided to search for a credible person and I was urged to contact you, that I may, with your consent,present you to the "trustee" bank as my late client's surviving family member so as to enable you put up a claim to the bank in that capacity as a next-of-kin of my client.
I propose that 50% of the net sum will accrue to you at the conclusion of this deal, if I do not incur further expenses.

I will not fail to bring to your notice this transaction is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the for the completion transfer. You should contact me immediately you receive this letter.
However, you will have to assent to an express agreement which I will forward to you in order to bind us in this transaction.
Like I said, I require only a solemn confidentiality on this.Please let me have your opinion as soon as possible and send to me your telephone and fax numbers to enable us discuss further on this transaction
