Before his death, he deposited the sum of $3.2,000,000.00. usd (Three
million two hundred thousand us dallar) made from contracts he executed with Oil
Companies over 6 years here in Nigeria and the proceeds are with our Commercial
Bank . Few weeks ago, the Bank tried requesting that the next of KIN to the
deceased should come up to claim his fund deposited with our Bank.I am the
Manager in charge of unclaimed funds hence my contacting you.
After much effort has been made to trace a valid information of the deceased
, I decided to contact you to stand in as the next of KIN to the deceased
and claim the fund so that the bank will not declare the account dormant ,
freeze or confiscate the amount as they stated in the letter sent to my
Department Of which I will fax to you.
If you can stand in,I assure you that this is a risk free as I will advise
you on what to do to have this fund moved to your account and we can agree on
terms of sharing. All you have to do is to consent to this by giving me the
go ahead to have you presented to the Bank as the next of kin through a
lawyer.I will tell you how to get a lawyer but it has to be confidential who will
apply and present you as the next of KIN.
AS soon as we make application, obtain the necessary approval, the money
will be paid through here or any of the banks payment centre Overseas.This will
take us about 14 working days to conclude depending on how you respond to our
correspondence. Sharing ratio can be discussed amicably, and I will like to
use my own part of the fund for investment in your country. Please if you are
interested in this regards let me have your personal information such as:
1) YOUR FULL NAME/MAILING ADDRESS 2) YOUR PRIVATE PHONE/FAX NUMBERS 3) A
COPY OF ANY OF YOUR ID. 4)YOUR COMPANY NAME/POSITION IF ANY. 5)YOUR MARITAL
