He is from Atlanta Georgia United State of America, but based here with his wife and his two children, Mr. Hamilton has being banking with Platinum bank for the past 4yrs, some time August 2002, Mr. Hamilton Was on his way to his house, and unfortunately, Mr. Hamilton ran into a Trailer load of Groundnut Oil, and died immediately, their car got Burnt, no single soul was saved, Mr. Hamilton Creek and his entire family was confirmed dead.
As the family lawyer, I have met with the Board of Directors and Board Of Management of Platinum Bank PLC to secure the wealth of my client, but they mandated and instructed me to look for Mr. Hamilton Creek relation/relatives and his next of Kin to come and claim Mr. Hamilton's Fund, Since August 2003 till date, I have been looking for Mr. Hamilton Creek relations and relatives/Next of Kin to come and claim Mr. Hamiltons Fund which he deposited with his bank, I have contacted his Embassy and after 3days, his Ambassador told me that Mr. Hamilton Creek Has no relation and no next of kin, their Ambassador told me that Mr. Hamilton used his first son as his next of kin, but it is quite Unfortunate that Mr. Hamilton Creek died with all his family members.
The reason why I contacted you is thus, Mr. Hamilton is dead, and his only son whom supposed to inherit his properties and money also died with him. As at this moment, nobody or person[s] is coming to claim this money from his bank. The board of directors and management of our bank has told me that if nobody or person[s] apply for the claim of Mr. Hamilton Fund, the bank will return Mr. Hamilton's Fund into their Federal Reserve. In the Light of the above, I want you to stand as the Relation/relative of Late Mr. Hamilton Creek hence i cannot live to see their bank take over this money.
I want you to act as the Hamilton's relation, so that you will inherit Mr. Hamilton Creek Money which he deposited with the bank, it might Interest you to know that Mr. Hamilton has a Domiciliary Bank Account With this platinum Bank and he has a total sum of US$9.2M Nine Million Two Hundred Dollars, this is the exact amount which late Mr. Hamilton Creek has in his domiciliary Account, and this money is still in his Account as unclaimed money. This transaction is very easy and simple, And it is 100% risk free, I'm the Personal lawyer to this family, and the Management and Board of Directors of the Bank are waiting for me to Provide to them the Relation or next of Kin to late Mr. Hamilton Creek, Of which I told them that I am still searching for the next of kin to The deceased.
Finally, if you are interested with this transaction, I will front you To the bank as the only next of kin to late Mr. Hamilton Creek, and I will let the bank know that you are the only right person to inherit late Mr. Hamilton Funds and properties. If you agree with me, I will present you to the bank as the rightful person/next of kin to Late Mr. Hamilton Creek, and all Mr. Hamilton Creek Properties and his Money US$9.2M Nine Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars will be Transferred into your own Account as Mr. Hamilton Creek next of kin., if you are interested, just email me on email address: barr_benardgraham@yahoo.com
If you are interested, late Mr. Hamilton Funds will be credited into Youre Account and all his Properties will be released to you either through Courier Services or the Bank will Cargo all his properties to you in any were you want it. So reply me immediately and let me know what you say, feel free to ask any questions. We will share Late Mr. Hamilton Creek Funds 50-50; you will take 50% of the US$9.2M. Which is US$4.600, 000.00 Four Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars, while the Balance of the same amount will be mine. I will be waiting for your immediate response to enable me send to you the copy of his death certificate from the hospital after the accident, deposit certificate issued and signed by our bank when he deposited the us$9.2m and my personal identity.
