Good day.
I am sorry for contacting you through this medium without a previous notice,I
had to use the E-mail because it is an easier and more confidential way
of making contact with people around the world.
My name is Barrister John Newton, a fifty-four (54) year old Attorney in
practice here in London-England.I had a client by name Mr.Henry Pitt a contractor
based here in
sri-lanka/indonesia now deceased. My client lost his life alongside his
wife and only child in aceh sri-lanka.Details
of this incidence can be checked on the following website;
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4143487.stm
Prior to the Death of my Late Client, He secured a contract of $14,500,000.00
million from the Sri-lanka/indonesia government, following which he received
a 30% mobilization
fee of US$3,750,000.00 Million and successfully executed the contract, but
the balance of US$10,750,000.00 Million contract payment was in the Process
of being transferred
into My Late Client's Account which he submitted to the Government when
he lost his life in the incidence.
Few days after his sudden Death,The Government of indonesia effected the
transfer of the balance of his Contract Funds into the Account that My Late
Client has on his file with the Government. As his personal Attorney before
his death,I have been officially notified and instructed by the bank here
in U.K where the money is currently deposited that I should provide and
forward the particulars of Mr.Henry 's next of kin so that the Funds in
his Account can be remitted into his Next of Kin's Account in accordance
with British Laws.
However, as the personal attorney and close confidant of late Mr. Henry
, I want you to know that My late Client died interstate,i.e, He died without
leaving a Will. Hence, all my efforts to locate any of his relative whom
I can present to the Bank has proved abortive.
Therefore I am seeking for your consent to present you as the deceased relative/next
of kin and subsequently the beneficiary of the fund so that the proceed
of this account
valued at 10,750,000.00 USD can be paid to you for subsequent disbursement
between you and I. If you can
cooperate with me and receive this funds as next of kin to Mr.Henry , confirm
your interest by contacting me through my E-mail:- johnnewton@lycos.co.uk;johnnewton@coolgoose.com
I can assure you that the deal is 100% risk free because i am in possesion
of the deceased personal file which contains all information which I shall
use to prove your relationship with the deceased therefore the money will
be paid into the account of whomever I present as Mr.Henry 's Next of kin
with proofs that I will present to the bank when needed.
When I rece ive a positive response and after proper discussion with you,I
will furnish you all relevant information that will facilitate the release
of the Funds to you An Application will have to be filed to the Bank for
processing of the release of the Funds into your nominated Bank account.
I wait to hear from you.
