Subject: Dear Sir/Madam,
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Mr.Aroh Thompson. a private financial consultant/Account portfolio manager. I happen to have managed aparticular account for a Resident Foreigner,here in Senegal, who accidentally died Interstate, leaving inour care a reasonable amount in a Domiciliary United States Dollars Account.The Highly confidential nature of our client and our Business Confidential disposition on Client to client Basis did not warrant us to have an easily identifiable next of Kin to this particular Client.
I have made several enquiries to locate any of my client's relatives immediate and extended, this has proved unsuccessful.Hence, I am contacting you. I need you to assist in securing the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Finance House here in Senegal where his deposits were lodged. The Finance House has issued a Government Mandatory Formality, notice to provide the Next of Kin or have the account confiscated within the next one month.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating any of his relatives for over two years and convinced that no one is coming up and having satisfied the mandatory legal requirement of Beneficiary /next of kin Notification,I now make Bold to seek a Reliable and Trustworthy person with your consent and perfect understanding, to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at Twenty One Million,Three Hundred And Twenty Thousand United States Dollars, interest Inclusive, can be paid into an account to be provided by you (preferably outside the country Financial Institutions or its Isles), as the perceived Next Of Kin Legally and Otherwise.
I have all necessary documents to back up these claims as Next of Kin on your behalf. All I require is your honest cooperation and confidence in me, which I believe that it is not easy as we have not done similar transaction before and not by reference. Hence the reasons I choose to call this a Deal,as it will be based on trust to enable us see this transaction through.I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
I would advise that you give this a positive consideration and get back to me via this e as I would be very flexible as well as considerate in percentage share that will be given to you for your assistance. Upon receipt of your response l will send to you my private number so that you can reach me for further discussion regarding this project.
Best regards,
Mr.Aroh Thompson
