Dear Holt,
I am David Mark, a legal Representative to Mr. Harold Holt, a national of
your country, who used to work with Construction Company in Nigeria. Here in
after shall be referred to as my client.
On the 21st of April 2003 my client, his wife and their only daughter were
involved in a fire outbreak in there residence. All of the family members
unfortunately lost there lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to
locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved
unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track
his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I
contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist in returning the fund valued at
$16,000,000.00 UNITED STATES DOLLARS left behind by my client before it gets
Confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Vault Company or Managers where
this huge amount were Lodged. The said Finance Company has issued me a
notice to provide the relatives or families of the deceased or have the
account confiscated within the next fourteen official working days. For the
fact that I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 2
years now, I seek the consent to present you as the family member to the
deceased, since you have the same last name with my client, so that the
proceeds of this account can be paid to you.
Secondly he has a consignment tagged 'family valuables' he shipped by cargo
to Europe early the same year he died, according to the information he
passed to me, it is of a important to him. Therefore, if you are related to
this family in question or they are in your family tree or genealogy, please
endeavor to reach me immediately to enable me inform you the modalities on
how to carry out this project.
I have all necessary information and legal documents needed to back you up
for claim. All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us
see this transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under
legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me either through my direct number 234-1-473-2686
