Dear Friend,
This letter would definitely come to you as a surprise, owing to the fact that you and I have never had any prior communication.It is with trust and believe that I write to you, although I don't know you neither have I seen you before, but my confidence was reposed on you,I'm a Canadian but I live in Nigeria where I work as a legal practitioner . I chose to work here because My biological father hails from Nigeria, while my mother is a canadian.
My name is Barrister LORNE DUBE ,I am the personal attorney to late Mr.Kimberly from United states of America, who was a foreign oil expatriate with shell Oil Development Company here in Nigeria , before his untimely death in the hands of Niger Delta Militant force, who attacked them while they were drilling Oil in the middle of the Altlantic Ocean,and all the victims perished inside the ocean and No single corpse was recovered..
I got your e mail address during my careful search on the United states family tree search engine for those who answers the last name.
I contacted you to assist me in claiming the Fund valued at {USD$ 6 .2 Million} Six Million,Two hundred thousand United state Dollars, that was approved in favor of my late client Mr.Kimberly Being the proposed payment for the oil deal he executed with the shell Development Company here before his untimely demise.
The Management of the Bank where this us$ 6.2 Million is floating unclaimed has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin to the late contractor or have the fund seized within the next 10 official working days. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased , since you bear similar surname that will prove you without doubt his relative, so that the proceeds of this oil contract fund can be paid to you.
Therefore, on my receipt of your affirmative response, we will discuss the sharing ratio and modalities for the transfer. I have all necessary information needed that will be useful to back you up the claim. All I need from you is your honesty and maximum co-operation to enable us see that this transaction goes successfully. I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the laws.
Finally, your swift reply with your contact phone number and address is needed for easy communication on the commencement modalities of this inheritance claim.
Give me your phone number So I can call you.
Thank you.
