Dear Friend.

I am Mr. Mark Woods, Business Investment Manager for Barclays Capital United Kingdom, I am contacting you independently and no one is informed of this communication. In 2000 Mieczyk came to our Bank, Barclays Capital and had series of talk with the Investment Banking Division. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of £12.65 million GB Pound, which he wished to have us invest on his behalf.
Based on my advice, we invested the money, and made attractive margins for our first months of operation, the profit and interest stood at this point at over £14 Million GB Pound. In mid 2002, he instructed that the principal sum (£12.65Million) be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in the Isle of Man.
We got in touch with a specialist bank in Isle of Man the Coutts Investment Bank who agreed to receive this money for a fee and make cash available to Mr. Mieczyk through their Isle of Man Branch. However Coutts Investment Bank got in touch with us last year that this money has not been claimed. Upon further enquiries we found out that Mieczyk has passed on February 2007 (DECEASED) which means he died intestate. He has no next of kin named in any of the paper work held on his file.
What I am proposing is that, since I have exclusive access to his file, you will be made the beneficiary of these funds. Barclays Capital, where I work, will contact you, informing you that money has been willed to you upon verification, which will be the details I will make available to my bank (Barclays Capital), my bank (Barclays Capital) will instruct Coutts Investment Bank to make payments to you.
You do not have to have known him. I know this might be a bit heavy for you but please trust me on this. For all your troubles I propose that we split the money in half. In the banking circle this happens every time. The other option is that the money will revert back to the government coffers.
I would want us to keep communication strictly by email, due to telephone tapping but occasionally we can also speak on phone if the need arises.
Please, note I am a family man; I have a wife and three children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to the consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold.
This is the one truth I have learnt from my private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence. If we can be of one accord, we should act swiftly on this. Please reply me immediately via my personal email (wood.mark@outlook.com).
I await your response.

Please note: if you are not happy with this communication please delete it and my apologies to you, but if you are interested during the course of our transactions I will give you link that will refer you to more hunts for the heir to his estates.

Yours Sincerely
Mr. Woods
