I am Barrister Femi Wilson I am an attorney to a deceased Immigrant, who
was a business man/contractor in my country with the Crude Oil sector of
the government. Here-in-after shall be referred to as my client.On the 30th
of March 2002, my client, his wife and their three Children died in the
Kenyan Airways plane crash from U.A.E. Since then I have been managing his
properties, and a contract, which he executed for the Department of Petroleum
Resources (DPR), Which I monitored the payment as his attorney.
Now the money for the contract has been deposited in a bank which I would
want you to assist in repatriating before it gets confiscated by the government,
Particularly,the bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin
or have the account confiscated within a short period of time.The deceased
has an account Valued at $20.5 million dollars (USD).
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 7 months,
now I seek Your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased,
so that the proceeds of this account valued at $20.5 million dollars can
be paid to you and then you, I and his account officer would share the money.
55% to me and the accountant, 40% for you, 5% for miscellaneous expenses
that might arise. I have all necessary information that can be used to back
up any Claim we may make.
All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us to see this deal
through.I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with
me by my E-mail address with your full names and address,personal telephone
and fax numbers to enable us discuss further about this transaction.
N.B. P:S. your response should be directed to { femvine@yahoo.com } for
urgent attention.
Kindest Regards
