Dear Ms Emmy Schaefder,Thank you for your email response. since our late client has no next of kin and no will was left behind before he died through auto crash.We want to also assure you that we will use our good position to assist you with the process of this claim and I shall be entitled to 70% of the fund and the other 30% will be for you. However, this is a legitimate transaction of the case of our late client (Sir Engr. Willy Bubenik) We are contacting you hoping that we can build up a firm relationship upon which this transaction can be executed. We are giving you a rare opportunity for our mutual benefits. As you may know already, the case of our client is an unusual one. His death was abrupt and without a will covering this sum mentioned to you. As the Residuary beneficiary, we have the responsibility to sort out the administrative details on his death. We have the authority to decide what happens to this sum as it will be administered in accordance with strict rules and regulations known as "Rules of Intestacy". This will be explained as we go on.Truly, the most important guiding principle of the Inheritance law is its emphasis on the wishes and the intent of the individual that has died. However, we cannot make claim to the inheritance because we are also his lawyer and by the same laws we are prohibited to do so. In this case,we needed a beneficiary to be nominated outside the United Kingdom otherwisethese funds become that of the crown. That was how we decided to nominate you as the beneficiary to the inheritance. We are happy to do that with you if and only if we are satisfied with your anticipated co-operation. We will be dealing with you as partner who originated this transaction so that this golden opportunity will be achieved. In all of these, the most important thing is for you to be able to obtain the grant of letter of Administration from the Probate.This is an official document, issued by the court, which allows you (as administrator) to administer the estate. A Grant of Letter of Administration is obtained by person(s) entitled according the rules of the court when the deceased dies without leaving a Will or "intestate" The situation where a person dies without making a will fully disposing the assets. The administration of "intestate" estate is governed by the Administration of Estates Act 1925. The Administration of Estates Act 1925 sets out for who can act as an administrator - that is, who has the legal right to deal with the affairs of the person who has died.This is your role or responsibility and this is major issue in concluding the transaction. As soon as the document is obtained, we are done. So having only being appointed, we shall use our position to send an application to the firm currently incharge of the fund on your behalf of that process of fund transfer can commence in your favour. The firm incharge of the fund will be contacting you directly as the beneficiary of this fund upon the receipt of the receipt of the application sent on yourbehalf and we shall guide you accordingly on what to do at every stage of the transaction.
