Subject: Tsunami Tragedy..Reason For Contacting You
[ATTENTION PLEASE]
Hello,
With all due respect, I am Mr.Charles Brown,a solicitor at law and the personal attorney to late Mr. Francis Fichelle, a French national. Late Mr. Francis Fichelle is a private oil consultant/contractor with the shell petroleum development in Saudi Arabia, herein after shall be referred to as my client.
I have a very urgent and mutual business relationship to propose to you. On Sunday 26 December 2004, at about 0100 gmt, an 8.9 magnitude earthquake occurs on the seafloor near Aceh in northern Indonesia. This earthquake generated a huge tsunami wave, hitting the coasts of Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, India, Sri lanka, Maldives and even Somalia. Unfortunately, my client and his wife with their three children lost their lives in the devastation caused by the earthquake and tsunami that hit many part of Asia and east Africa.
Since then, I have made several enquiries with his country's embassies to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to personally contact you with this business partnership proposal. I have contacted you to assist in repatriating a huge amount of money left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the finance and security company where these huge deposit was lodged. The deceased had a deposit valued presently a $12,000,000.00 million US dollars (twelve million united state dollars) and company has issued me a notice to provide his next of kin or beneficiary by will otherwise have the account confiscated within the next ninety working days.
Having been unsuccessful in locating any of my late client relatives for one (1) month now. I am now seeking your consent to present you as the next of kin/beneficiary to the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at $ 12 million united states dollars can be paid to you. It is not necessary to be a blood relation to late Mr. Francis Fichelle, neither is it necessary to bear the same surname with him. It is even not important for the stand-in next of kin to be a French national.Already, I have worked out modalities for achieving my aim of appointing a next of kin as well as transfer the money abroad for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% to you. It is my intention to achieve this transfer in a legitimate way, all I required is your honest, cooperation, confidentiality and trust to enable us see this transaction through. The money transfer paper work itself will include a certificate of origin so that the receiving bank does not ask question. Also the paper work will include proper certificate that the fund being transferred is from non-criminal sources. In short this will be a proper and legal money transfer with apparently no risk involved. The transaction is guaranteed to succeed without any problem. As soon as I hear from you, I shall provide you with further clarification that you may need. Your urgent response will be highly anticipated and appreciated.
Yours
Mr. Charles Brown
