Hello Sir/Madam,

I am Mr. Philip Cohen, a Senior Executive internal auditor with Investec Bank of South Africa an affiliate with First Investment Chartered of South Africa, in the years 2008, Mr. Peter Mutombo came to our bank to engage in business discussion an investments which he wished to have us turn over on his behalf, I was the investment officer assigned to his case at the time, I made numerous suggestions to him in line with my duties as the de-facto Senior Executive internal auditor of the bank, especially given the volume of funds he wished to invest.
Mr. Peter Mutombo, a Congolese from Democratic Republic of the Congo, and a well-known politician in DRC, into Mining and Sells of precious stones here in South Africa, I was made Mr. Mutombo’s personal Advisor, and into my discussion with him, he did disclose a lot to me on how he made his money through the DRC political system.
Mr. Mutombo made a number of financial investments through our portfolio, amounting to $6,300,000.00 (Six Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars) for Twenty-Four calendar months this financial investment deposit was unattended to.
Upon maturity, as his personal Advisor, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no response. After a month, I sent a reminder, and finally, I discovered from my investigations, that Mr. Peter Mutombo died with his immediate family members in a plane crash that occurred in Libya year 2010, below is a link for your view.

As a banker, I am very much aware of all financial laws of the land and of Reserve Bank of South Africa, as the law stipulates, that all unattended deposits beyond Thirteen years be forfeited to the state, hence, I decided to make do to this opportunity knowing that Mr. Mutombo did not include any Next-of-Kin when making the investment deposit, so, to avoid the fund been confiscated by the state, I decided to contact you, and solicit to present you as late Mr. Peter Mutombo Next-of-kin.
