Dear Sir/Madam,
The inspiration to contact you is simply divine providence, I am making this
proposition because I have to seek the partnership of a resource person to
help me realize this project. I Bruce Gibson,esq.a solicitor and investment
consultant based in London, united kingdom.
I was attending a business luncheon in Berlin, Germany and I got introduced
to the renowned German businessman and property mogul, Mr.Andreas Schranner
(of the blessed memory).
He engaged my services as attorney and investment consultant and my primary
assignment was to spearhead his investment forays in the United Kingdom.
Three months later I invited him to London and under my professional
guidance and based on my advice he made a fixed deposit of 26,500,000,00
million pounds sterling at a financial institution.
This deposit was for 2years and upon maturity I made effort to contact my
client, I could not reach him or any member of his family. I was forced to
travel to Germany and there I got the tragic news that on July 25 2000, my
client Mr. Andreas schranner, his wife Maria, their daughter Eich and
husband Christian and their two children perished in the air France Concorde
new York bound flight;

I have made efforts to locate any member of his family since then with
strong biological links to my late client without success. The search to
find a close relation is one that has consumed time and resources.
The institution is asking me to either present a next of kin to late Mr.
Andreas Schranner or forfeit the deposit.My proposal is to package, present
you as next of kin to late Mr.Andreas Schranner and process the fixed
deposit and transfer custody to you for our mutual benefit. My capacity as
solicitor/investment consultant to my late client gives me the discretion to
package and transfer the deposit to you. I will give you 40% for your
effort, 60% for me it will amount to injustice if I do not take this
decisive step to secure this deposit, and invest it.
The late schranner was also a friend in addition to our business
relationship. I will wait for your
reaction and response and then together we can jumpstart this project and
nurture it to reality.
I await your respond
Bruce Gibson
