Attention: Mr/Mrs.
I am james hooper, a legal practitioner and personal attorney to late
Engineer M.N Sulak. an international contractor in the oil industry before
his untimely demise on the 27th of September 2003 United Kingdom.
Before his death, I assisted him in the deposit of some contract funds
valued
at $22 million with a bank. The funds have remained unclaimed since his
death
and such unclaimed funds are appropriated and returned to the treasury after
Six.
years as a matter of banking policy. Considering the lack of success in my
bid
to locate any of his relatives for over 3years now, I here by solicit your
consent to enable me present you to the bank as the beneficiary Next of Kin
to
my deceased client.
I am contacting you for two reasons because I strongly believe that the
Bank does not deserve to confiscate the funds and these reasons led to my
resolve to contact you to claim the funds.
Know that this deal is 100% risk free because I have in my possession the
personal file of the deceased which contains some of the information we
shall
need to prove your legal relationship with my late client,which means that
the
fund will definitely be paid into the account of whoever I present to the
bank
as his next of kin. Moreover this is a legal and risk free transaction that
does not in anyway hamper or contravene the monetary laws of your country
because it is an inheritance fund.
All I require from you is your assurance that my share of the funds shall be
held in trust for me when it is released into your account by he bank. Be
rest
assured that the fund shall be released to you by the bank upon presenting
all
the necessary legal documents that will be used to substantiate whatever
claim
we make on your behalf at the bank.
On my receipt of your consenting reply, i shall give you a detailed briefing
on
this proceedings.
I await your immediate response,i appeal to your sense of fairness,
