Subject: More Information Given, Kindly get back to me.
Dear Megan Crabtree,
I contacted you in this transaction for our mutual benefit and for a lasting business relationship, having made unsuccessful attempts upon my several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives. After these several unsuccessful attempts,I decided to contact you as you have the same last name with my late client.He might be or might not be in relation with you but in as much as you have the same last name with him, You are liable to take up the responsibility on retrieving the fund from the bank.All that i need to do is to back you up with the necessary documents as the heir to the fund as i am the late deseased attorney.
As the attorney to the late deseased, Any body i presented to the bank remains the heir to the fund.I am presenting you to the bank now and all that i need from you is your maximum cooperation and everything will work out fine and it will be a cause of celebration expecially this xmas season approaching.
Firstly, be rest assured that this our mutual benefit transaction is 100% risk free as all the original documents that will be needed in a transaction of this nature ascertaining you as the bonafide beneficiary next of kin of Late Engr. P.A. Crabtree, will duly and legally be issued and obtained in your name and favour.
Please understand that I am an adult with family only thinking of how to establish the legacy for my children and that is exactly why I am contacting you in this business. Let me go straight to explain more on the event that led to this before I expatiate on the project proper.Engr. P.A. Crabtree, was a big customer of the finance company. He operated a coded account with the firm before he died On the 5th of May 2004 with his family through motor accident along Gege express road.
You must understand that in the financial institution opportunities like this are common but not heard. People put their monies in financial institutions and some of these accounts are either coded or confidentially operated, therefore, when such people die what do you think that happens to these monies when nobody comes for their claims? Well, this is one of the numerous avenues monies are made within and amongst the financial institution management.
In fact,Engr. P.A. Crabtree, was one of my best clients and I did not mastermind his death and I did not operate or manage his account. I did all I could to locate his real relatives and was unsuccessful. It was after the unsuccessful attempts to locate his real relatives that I then came to remember his informing me of his early live and experiences.
Normally, when something like this happens in financial institution it is reported to the management.The Management can only wait for four years for a next of kin to show up without publishing it or making it public because of false claimants must definitely show up. Therefore, it is not published and the respective financial institution only informs the customer’s attorney as the case may be and then only waits for the real heir to show up as the availability of such funds are expected to be in the late "customers will" which would be the only source of knowledge of it by anybody who is entitled to such estate. So the firm gives four years for this, and if no claimant comes forward then the Management sends the money to the Debt Re-conversion Department and the account is closed.
Now the question is, who runs the Debt Re-conversion Department and who is the Management? The answer is simple. The Chairman, Managing Director and Board Members. These are individuals and these monies are shared by them and nobody asks questions, period. In fact, these issues are not even discussed outside board meetings.
To explain myself properly, I am not a board member and of course, I am not part of the Management and I do not work with the finance company. I am not rich, therefore, if I have this opportunity and throw it to the wolves, then I must be the "stupidest" the most "foolish-man" that has ever lived. I have fully put everything in place and since this is an opportunity open to anybody , I do not see anything wrong in what I am doing as long as I am not hurting who should not be hurt period. I can only tell you that it is just destiny that brought us together. Because I am quite sure of what I am doing that is why I am committing myself in this project because I know what the catch is and it is worth it, my conscience is clear and I have no genuine reason to worry about. The procedure of establishing the next of kin would be taken care of.
I am a legal Practitioner and I was late Engr. P.A. Crabtree's Personal attorney as earlier informed you. As previously informed you also, after unsuccessful attempts to locate the real relatives of my late client, I resorted to independent search and by divine inspiration I got your contact by divine aspiration at the office of the Chamber of commerce and Tourism in Lome-Togo as I was going through some directories, therefore my contacting you in respect of this transaction of great mutual benefit.
For the fact that he has the same last/surname like you, you can with my aid as his personal lawyer be approved by the firm as his next of kin because I have all the secret information that are contained in this security file jacket with the firm that will facilitate that. It is only myself that knows that you are not the real relative.
Unfortunately my late client did not have any Will before his sudden death. Although he had earlier notified me of that in the near future.
It is therefore with absolute confidence that I wish to inform you more of the details of this transaction of great mutual benefit. Now be advised my friend that in line with my operational master plan for the success of this our mutual benefit business, what you are required to do now is to tender an application to the finance company as next of kin to this deceased customer putting claim over his balance with the firm. This application will then faxed to the firm for immediate action and processing to start.
For being involve in this transaction, I have therefore resolved to offer you 35% of the total sum as gratification in helping me champion this business. 60% will be for myself while 5% will be used to take care of the settlement of all expenses that might come up in the course of this transaction as soon as the fund is into your bank account. Please, understand that I put so many things into consideration before offering you this 35% and I do hope that it will be appreciated.
Therefore what you are expected to do is to prepare an application letter as next of kin to the deceased customer, putting claim over his balance with this firm and wanting his balance be transferred directly into your designated account.
As soon as you give me your hands of co-operation, I will send to you the specimen of the text of application you will send to the company and the transaction will commence immediately.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
My regards to you and your family and God bless.
