Kindest Attention,
I am Barrister Prince Peters, I am contacting you concerning a deceased client of mine and an investment he placed under an Assets Management Company years ago. I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail.
I am contacting you independently of my investigation and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you and I. In the year 2007, the Asset Management Company contacted me on this matter, for me to provide the next of kin to my late client to avoid his Assets being confiscated.
My Client Mr. Frederick M. Wong and his wife died aboard Egypt Air Flight 990 which crashed in the Atlantic Ocean on October 31 1999. View the link below:

The Asset Management Company will by the end of this financial year broadcast a request for statements of claim to the British Government, failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the Assets to the Government. This will result in the assets entering the government system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the Assets Management Company. This will not happen if I have my way.
My proposal: I now seek your permission to present you as a next of kin to the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully worked out making you the beneficiary to the Assets consignments which contains the sum of US$5,000 000 00 (Five Million Us Dollars); I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct The Assets Management Company to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation.
Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 60% for me, 35% for you and 5% will be used to Upset all expenses that will be Incurred by both Partied.
I would have gone ahead to ask that the funds be released to me, but that will draw a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit.
Please be informed that your utmost confidentiality is required. If this interests you, please reply me immediately via e-mail for now.
Also include your private phone number for voice contact and fax number so that I can provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction better.
Awaiting your urgent reply.
I await your response.
Barrister. Prince Peters.
