Good day, This letter is strictly personal, intimate and confidential. Forgive this unusual manner of contacting you, but this particular letter is of exceptional and very private nature. There is absolutely going to be a great doubt and distrust in your heart in respect of this email, coupled with the fact that, so many miscreants have taken possession of the Internet to facilitate their nefarious deeds, thereby making it extremely difficult for genuine people to get attention and recognition. There is no way for me to know whether I will be properly understood, but it is my duty to write and reach out to you.

The BANK seeks a member of his family to be presented as next of kin whom can provide the evidence necessary; however multiple efforts were made by the bank to find members of his family which proved impossible; then for reasons I was contacted by the bank Since i am his personal assistant with a twenty seven days mandate to provide my late client’s next of kin otherwise the funds will be confiscated. and the money will go into the togo government account as unclaimed bills.
