Subject: Good day Wouters
FROM THE DESK OF,BARRISTER BYRAN COLEMAN,COLEMAN & ASSOCIATES (SOLICITORS -AT -LAW)LONDON -ENGLAND. Good day Wouters.I am sorry for contacting you through this medium without a previous notice,I had to
use the E-mail because it is an easier and more confidential way of making contact
with people around the world.My name is Barrister Byran Coleman,a Forty Five (45)
year old Attorney in practice here in London-England.I had a client by name Mr.Victor
Wouters, a businessman based here in London , now deceased.My client lost his life
on the 27th of October 2005 alongside his wife and their three children in an auto
crash along the Blackwall tunnel , London, England, United Kingdom. Prior to the Death of my Late Client he made a fixed deposit of $8,750,000.00 USD
(Eight million seven hundred and fifty thousand U.S. Dollars) in a bank / security
company in London,England.As his personal Attorney before his death,I have been
officially notified and instructed by the bank here in U.K where the money is currently
deposited that I should provide and forward the particulars of Mr.Victor Wouters's next
of kin so that the Funds in his Account can be remitted into his Next of Kin's Account
in accordance with British Inheritance laws. However, as the personal attorney and close confidant of late Mr.Victor Wouters,I
want you to know that My late Client died intestate,i.e,He died without leaving a will.Hence,all my efforts to locate any of his relative whom I can present to the Bank has
proved abortive.Therefore I am seeking for your consent to present you as the
deceased relative/next of kin since you have the same last name with him and
subsequently the beneficiary of the fund so that the proceed of this account valued at
US$8,750,000.00 Million can be paid to you for subsequent disbursement between
you and I . 60% for me ,40% for you .If you can cooperate with me and receive this
funds as next of kin to Mr.Victor Wouters,confirm your interest by contacting me
through my E-mail. I can assure you that the deal is 100% risk free because I am in possesion of the
deceased personal file which contains all information which I shall use to prove your
relationship with the deceased therefore the money will be paid into the account of
whomever I present as Mr.Victor Wouters's Next of kin with proofs that I will present to
the bank when needed. When I receive a positive response and after proper discussion with you,I will furnish
you all relevant information that will facilitate the release of the Funds to you. An
Application will have to be filed to the Bank for processing of the release of the Funds
into your nominated Bank account. I wait to hear from you.Barr. Byran Coleman
