Branch. Upon Maturity, we sent a
routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a
month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers

area near John F. Kennedy International Airport on November12,2001, www.cnn.com/2001/US/11/12/newyork.crash/
After further investigation, it was discovered that he died
without making a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin proved fruitless.
On further investigation, it was discovered that Late Mr. Jeff Haward did
not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paper work here at the Bank. The total sum is
US$15M still in my bank and the interest isbeing rolled over with the principal
sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it.

will revert to the ownership of the Government if nobody applies as the
next of Kin to claim the funds.
Consequently, I shall present you as a foreigner to stand in, as the next
of kin to late Mr. Jeff Haward so that you and I can benefit from the fruits
of this man's labour. Upon acceptance of this proposal, I shall give you
detailed information on how this deal would be carried out. We shall employ
the services of a solicitor for the drafting of the letter of probate in
your favour, and to obtain all other relevant papers in your name for the
necessary documentation for payment approval in my bank.
The money will be shared in the ratio: Sixty percent for me, thirty five
percent for you and five percent for any arising contingencies during the
course of this transaction.
I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that
will protect you from any breach of the law as I will use my position in
the bank to secure approvals and guarantee the successful execution of this
transaction.
Please be informed that your utmost confidentiality is required. If this
interests you, please reply me immediately, and please include your private
telephone number for voice contact and fax number so I can provide you with
more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.
