Subject: AS URGENT AS YOU SEE IT! PLEASE READ
Dear Sir,
i am a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney to the Late C.E.O,(Chief Executive Officer) of BP OIL SERVICING LTD,( MR. KEN J Amstrong) who till his untimely death was a contractor with Shell in UK. Whom here in after shall be referred to as my client. On the 21st of July 2004, my client, his wife and their two children were involved in a car accident along express road in London during their holiday in JAPAN. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to the embassy 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, Which is (Amstrong) to locate any member of his family hence unsuccessful. Now I am contacting you to assist in repatriating the money and properties left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposit were lodged in a Particularly bank where the deceased had a deposit valued at about 4.8 Million. (POUNDS)
listen very well, I have all the documents including the next of kin documents. THE BANK has just notified me to provide the next-of-kin or have the account confiscated within 6 weeks. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over ONE year and six months now i seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at 4.8 Million pounds can be paid to you and then you and I can share the money. 50% tome and 50% to you. I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to backup any claim we may make.
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me immediately as I do not have much time in my disposal.
ALL THE BANK WANTS IS THE NEXT OF KIN. MY CLIENT IS NOT FROM UK AND I KNOW YOU ARE NOT FROM UK. THIS MAKES IT VERY EASY. WHAT YOU HAVE JUST READ IS THE TRUTH AND THE BANK HAS GIVEN ME 6 WEEKS TO PROVIDE THE NEXT OF KIN OR THE ACCOUNT WOULD BE CLOSED. (WHICH MEANS THE BANK WILL GET TO KEEP THE MONEY IF I CANNOT COME UP WITH THE NEXT OF KIN)
lets be partners and get the money. i don't know you and you don't know me but i believe it takes a day to know someone. Join me lets get the money. i promise you again. ALL WE GO WELL BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY PLANNED THE DEAL VERY WELL. Remember i need your honesty because the money will be transfer to your bank account as soon as i provide you as the next of KIN. All i need right now is to provide the document that bears your name as the next of Kin to the bank.
Another thing, if every thing goes as plan, than we will be requried to provide the following.
1. Drug law certificate
2. Money laundering certificate
3. Anti terrorist certificate
To get these documents are expenses. So we will share the expenses 50/50. That’s the deal.
Please get back to me with your tell phone number and i will call you before i can send you my number. Reach me with my direct email address.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated co-operation.
Best Regards,
P J ATTORNEYS
