Subject: ATTENTION:
Greetings to you,
Pleasebe patience and go through this email which I believe that,
thisproposal will be of mutual benefit to both of us and I require
yourhonesty and sincerity. I am Barr Abdul Ghani Bin Abdullah, an
attorneyat law. I am the personal attorney/sole executor to A deceased
clientof mine who bears the same last name with you, who hereinafter shall
bereferred to as my client. He died as a result of heart failure becauseof
the death of his immediate family involved in car accident, on the20th of
Nov 2006. Iassisted My late client in depositing the sum of Six
Million EightHundred Thousand United State Dollars, (US$6.8Million) with a
financefirm here for safekeeping and the purpose of expanding his business
butunfortunately he did not achieving what he planed. After the death ofmy
client, the finance firm officials contacted me, as his attorney toprovide
his next of kin who should inherit his fortune, because thisaccording to
them is their policy in sure circumstance. My late clienthas no beneficiary
to inherit the fund he deposited.
Since thedeath of my client and his family, I have written several letters
tothe embassy with an intent to locate any of his extended relatives
whomshall be claimants/beneficiaries of his abandoned personal account
andall such efforts have been to no avail. I had to inform the financefirm
officials about my fruitless effort in locating my late clientclose
relative or his next of kin. The board of directors of this firm,just
adopted a resolution and I was mandated to provide his next of kinfor the
payment of this fund or consider this fund as an abandonedfund.
Thefirm officials had planned to invoke the abandoned fund decree
ofthe bank that after the period of three years, the will confiscate
thefund to government treasure if they did not see anyone that I presentto
them as my late client legitimate beneficiary. Also I have receivedan
official letter suggesting a likely proceeding for confiscation ofhis
abandoned personal assets in line with existing laws of theinstitution. I
reasoned very professionally that I can use a legalmeans to present a next
of kin of my deceased client. This is legallypossible and would be done in
accordance with the laws of the country.
Ido sincerely sympathize the death of my client and his family, but Ithink
it is unprofitable if I should let his fund to be submitted tothe
government or some financial institution. My aim is to retrievethis fund
and let it be claimed by anyone I find trustworthy with thesame last name
with the deceased, etc. Also use this fund for the helpof the needle, for
this I seek your assistance since I have been unableto locate any of his
relatives, I seek your consent to present you asthe next of kin/the
beneficiary of the deceased since you have the samelast name.
Sothat the proceeds of this account can be paid to you. After which wewill
then share the fund on a mature upon agreement, 60% for me while40% goes
to you for your kind co-operation and assistance. I shallassemble all the
necessary legal documents that will be used in backingup your claims to the
finance firm. I guarantee that this will beexecuted under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from anybreach of the law. All required
arrangements have been made for thecompletion of this transaction.
Like I said, I will require your solemn honesty, sincerity and
confidentiality on this. However, if this email offends your moral values,
do accept my sincere apology. Pleaseget back to me as soon as possible to
indicate your interest in myproposal to you through my private email
