Dear One ,
I am Barrister.Uppa Mikel
,a solicitor at law ,personal attorney to .Mr W. Robert, a national Of
your country, A contractor Here in Lome Republic of Togo. Herein after
shall be referred to as my client. On the 21st of April 2006, my
client, his wife and their only daughter were involved in auto crash
along Ecowas express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately
lost there lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to your
embassy here to locate any of my clients extended relatives,
This
has also proved unsuccessful. After these several
unsuccessful attempts, I decided to contact you for you to stand as his
rightful beneficiary next of kin so that we can claim out this fund
from the said financier company, to locate any member of his family
hence I contacted you. I have contacted you to assist in repatriating
the fund valued at US$20.5 million left behind by my late client before
it gets confiscated by the finance company where this huge amount was
deposited.
The
said Finance Company has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin
or have his account confiscated within the next fourteen official
working days. Since I have been successful in locating the relatives
for over 5 years now, I seek the consent to present you as the next of
kin to the deceased since you have the same last names, so that the
proceeds of this account can be paid to you. Therefore,
on receipt of your positive response, we shall then discuss the sharing
ratio and modalities for transfer. I have all necessary information and
legal documents needed to back you up for the claims. All I require
from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction
through.
I
guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that
i will protect you from any breach of the law, I also assured you once
again that their is error or any consequence that will arise during
the execution of this transaction as long as you will only fellow my
instructions/Advise.
Send
me your full contact information then i will be waiting to hear from
you to enable me give you the necessary information on how to contact
the bank for the releasing of the fund to you as the real and rightful
beneficiary next of kin to my late client. Best regards.
Barrister
Mr. Uppa Mikel , (ESQ).
