Subject: VERY URGENT
Dear Patner,
I am MARK COLLINS Chambers and associates.This mail
is written and intended to solicit your assistance to be presented as
NEXT OF KIN to my Late Client, MR. PAUL SIDENER.
My Deceased Client MR. PAUL SIDENER, an AMERICAN with the DEPARTMENT OF
PETROLEUM RESOURCES(DPR) in Nigeria made a fixed Deposit of Fund valued
at $15m USD with GLOBAL LINK SECURITY COMPANY(GLSC) and unfortunately
lost his life with his wife and kid in a car accident along Shagamu
express way on October 31,2000.
The only know nest of kin is his wife who also lost her life also in
the auto crash except some vital document related to the Deposit still in
my possession.
The Governing Body of the Security company has contacted me on this
matter and I am yet to provide the Next of Kin to lay claims to the Fund.
Under a clearand legitimate agreement with you, I shall seek your
consent to be presented as the Next of Kin so that my late Clients'Fund will
not be confiscated by the SECURITY COMPANY.
For the sake of transparency on this matter,you are free to make
immediate contact to me via my e-mail for further information related to
this
matter.
Thank you very much for your anticipated acceptance while we expect
your prompt response and reply to mail_info222@yahoo.com .
Best Regards,
BARRISTER MARK COLLINS
