Subject: DEAR CHOSEN PARTNER
DEAR CHOSEN PARTNER
Good day to you and your family.My name is Barrister Dossou John, I am writing
you this message as regard of my late client who left the sum of US$8million
($ EIGHT MILLION US DOLLARS)with some properties worth about US$850,000,while
going through some of his documents left behind.I saw your name and information
as trusthworthy person that is why i decided to inform you about this business.
My client had an account with INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL BANK ACCRA GHANA,
and As his lawyer and a personal attorney to the deceased, I am now asked
to provide the Next Of Kin of my late client by INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL
BANK ACCRA GHANA west -Africa, where he deposited this money. As a result
of this I am now contacting you to help me claim what belongs to my late
client, because I believe and trust in you.
However, as the personal attorney and close confidant of my late client,
I know that he did not leave any WILL (because of his sudden death) which
means that this money will therefore be paid into the account of whom ever
I present as the Next-of-kin with proofs.Therefore I am seeking for your
consent and assistance to present you as the true beneficiary and next of
kin to my late client.
Your nationality and area of specialization does not matter, as all modalities
have been concluded to present you as the next of kin and consequently, the
beneficiary of the fund. This transaction is 100% risk free and is expected
to take about 10 working days to conclude as soon as you indicate your interest.
N.B: As you know INHERITANCE is not a crime all over the world, but may be
a crime only when you did not follow the Rules of the International Law of
Inheritance. In this transaction we shall follow strictly all the rules of
the International Law of Inheritance and obtain all the necessary transaction
documents from the appropriate authorities to prove that the inheritance/fund
is genuine.
All that is required of you is to act as a relative /next of kin and also
provide a safe bank account for the payment of the money to you. As soon
as payment is effected and the amount mentioned above is successfully transferred
into your account, i will meet with you in your country for the sharing of
the funds, and i have decided that 40% will be retained by you as your share,
10% will be set aside to cover all expenses incurred during this process,
while 50% will be for me as the initiator of the deal and i intend to use
my own share in acquiring some estates abroad .
If you are ready to give me your full cooperation and receive this money
into your custody, then confirm your interest by contacting me in my confidential
E-mail address dossou_john44@yahoo.com
And while replying do not forget to include your private telephone number
for good communication
I await your soonest reply,
Best regards,
Dossou John.
