ATTN:
Compliments of the day to you.I must solicit your
confidentiality and assure you that I am contacting you in good faith
and this proposal will be of mutual benefit.
I am Barr.David Morgan (Esq.), a legal practitioner. My client who was
The president of DIAMOND SAFARIES CO.GHANA,On the 21st of
December 2004, my client, his wife and their only son were involved in
a car accident along ACCRA/KUMASI Express Road. Unfortunately,
they all lost their lives in the event of the accident, Since then I
have
made several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives
and this has also proved unsuccessful.
Before his death,I assisted him in the deposit of
some funds with a Security Company for safekeeping.The funds have
remained unclaimed since his death, and such unclaimed funds are
appropriated and returned to the treasury as a matter of policy.
Considering the lack of success in my bid to locate any of his
relatives
for over a year now,I hereby solicit your consent to enable me present
you as the Next of Kin to my deceased client.
I am contacting you for two reasons. Firstly, you both have the same
last name, which makes the claim most credible. Secondly, I strongly
believe that the Security Company does not deserve to inherit the
funds. These reasons led to my resolve to claim the funds, which was
why I contacted you.
With your permission, I will proceed to establish you as the
NEXT OF KIN/BENEFICIARY to my late client. As soon as this is done,
you will then give instructions to the Security Company, to transfer
the deposited funds into another account you will provide.
Finally, I demand that you keep this transaction confidential till
we complete the deal and also confirm that the funds have been transferred
into any nominated bank account of yours. I would want you to furnish
me with the following informations which will assist me in this claim,
1,FULL NAME
2,CONTACT ADDRESS
3,TELEPHONE AND FAX
4,OCCUPATION.
These information will assist me secure the necessary Documents in your
name.
When I receive your response, I will provide you with further details.
I await for your reply,
Best Regards
Barr.David Morgan {Esq.}.
