Subject: Let me know- Robert Horton
Smith & Williamson
No 1 Bishops Wharf
Walnut Tree Close
Guildford
GU1 4RA
Good Day,
I am Robert Horton Director of Restructuring & Recovery, SMITH & WILLIAMSON
private Banking. I am contacting you concerning a deceased client of mine
and the deposit he placed under my care in a security and vaulting company
after he instructed me to liquidate his deposit and move it to this vaulting
company for an investment requiring cash . I would respectfully request that
you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of
the information you come by as a result of this mail. I am making this
contact with you based for a need of an individual/company who is willing to
assist me to stand as the next of kin to my deceased client.
Being the deceased financial consultant before his death .I am the only one
who has the knowledge where these funds ($10million) was moved to .From the
presure i receive from the security and vaulting company over the inactivity
of this deposit.By practice, the Security/vaulting firm will broadcast a
request for statements of claim to SMITH & WILLIAMSON Private Bank, by the
end of this financial quarter failing to receive viable claims most
probably revert deposit back to SMITH & WILLIAMSON Private Bank.
As far as SMITH & WILLIAMSON is concerned, the transaction with my late
customer concluded when I sent the funds to the security/vaulting firm.The
Security firm has no single idea of the previous history of the deposit.
They simply await instructions to release the deposit to any party that
comes forward. This is the situation.
My proposal is that; you share similar details to the late fellow; I am
prepared to place you in a position to instruct the Securities/vaulting firm
to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation known to me.
That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release
the deposit to you.You will assist reprofile funds and we will share the
proceeds.If i ask the funds be released to me, it would draw a straight line
to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit.
I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is for you to
betray my confidence. Hope to hear from you soon if you are interested.
However, i will appreciate it that you reach me henceforth via my private
mail account rramah.1965@yahoo.com.cn
Thank You.
Respectfully
Robert Horton,
