From: "Ite Sango E" <itesag2@hotmail.com>
Date: Tue, 07 Jun 2005 01:34:37 +0000
Subject: With Utmost Good Faith.
Hello!
Hope you are doing great and sound? I am Dr.Ite Sango E. Barrister at law
and attorney to late PVITON G. WALTER, a foreigner and a consulting
Engineer/ miner with Nigerian oil industry and other major industries in
Africa, otherwise known as my client who was based in the Federal Republic
of Nigeria, and South Africa respectively, who died of complications from
injuries sustained after a ghastly motor accident.
As the attorney to PVITON G. WALTERs I was his confidant as he shared with
me virtually everything about himself, his business and family. Thus I feel
quite safe dealing with you in this important business having gone through
your remarkable profile on the internet. Though, this medium (Internet) has
been greatly abused, I choose to reach you through it because it still
remains the fastest medium of communication.
However, this correspondence is unofficial and private, and it should be
treated as such.
At first I will like to assure you that this transaction is 100% risk and
trouble free to both parties.
Therefore I was his attorney for 15years and during that period I wrote his
WILL and was also named as the executor, which has since been fulfilled. I
am also aware due to my closeness to him that the amount Twenty Two Million
Dollars he deposited with a bank in South Africa was not willed out. He told
me about this on his sick bed and even instructed that I should prepare a
codicil to that effect, however before I could finish my work he had died.
After his death, funeral and subsequent execution of his will I went into
action to ascertain the
information passed unto me by my client. My investigation conformed to the
information; at that
point I knew I had to do something to move the funds out of the bank and
knowing that I cannot do this alone I have decided to contact you and seek
your assistance and acceptance to be the next of kin to the estate.
Aside my humble self and you, the relationship manager (account officer) of
my client knows about this, for he was very helpful during my discreet
investigation, through him I was able to see the deposit paper work of the
money which confirmed that there is no next of kin to the funds; So it
surely discovered through my investigation that the account holder has no
beneficiary to the account and no other person knows about this account.
Therefore It is necessary for us to move the money out of the bank on time
because if we do not do this within the next two years the bank would regard
the money as sundry funds, which would give them the right to claim the
money for their selfish interest.
I cannot move the money in my name because he is my client, for it could
arose suspicion, his account officer cannot do the same, hence the
importance of your assistance. Have my assurance that there is nothing to
fear about, as we also need your assurance that you would work with me
without fear or favour to achieve our desired objective. The legal back up
is no problem for I would be responsible for that. Since the codicil was not
ready before his death, letter of administration without Will would be
secured from the probate office, with this letter I would personally apply
on your behalf to the bank for the release of the funds to you.
What I require from you to enable us achieve the above are your;
Names
Address
Date of Birth
Telephone and Fax numbers
For security reasons and for the confidentiality of this transaction please
reach me at my most secured email address which is : itesang@zwallet.com
Upon receipt of a confirmation of acceptance from you a sharing ratio would
be worked out between the three of us and communicated to you along with my
telephone number.
I have already made all the possible arrangement on how to make this
successfull, the only thing remaining now is your confirmation of acceptance
to assist in this so that I will proceed immediately with the execution and
transfer process, as soon as you announce to me your acceptance to assist in
this, I am ever ready to conclude this transaction with you, hoping that you
will not disappoint me.
Take care and have a nice day.
Sincerely,
Ite Sango.
(Ite Associates).
