7-8 Essex StreetLondon WC2R 3LD Tel/;0044-702-0403561 Email; barr_william_personal@yahoo.comDear Sir,Permit me for this unwarranted mail, but hope you will consider it worth giving attention. Thus, a pre-meditated contact, trust and honor which i bestowed on your personality.I am Mr. William Bassey, a member of Brick Court Chambers London. A Solicitor and Personal Attorney to my client, Mr Christian Eich, Six(6) years ago my client Mr. Christian Eich, an Engineer who ran carmaker BMW'S museum,dead with his wife and only child on victims of plane crash of Monday, 31 July, 2000,Precisely,on June 6, 1999,my client Mr.Christian Eich,made deposited a valued at($12.2million United State Dollars) with a Barclays Bank Plc here in London, Upon maturity the bank sent a routine notification to me as his offshore legal advice to contact his family, but got no reply. After a month, finally I discovered from his contract employers, that Christian Eich died in a plane crash. I therefore made investigation and discovered that Mr. Christian Eich did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents which was used in deposting the fund including his Depositing paperwork with Barclays Bank Plc.So, recently the Managing Director (M.D,) of Security Firm notified me on the inpending risk if the fund is not been claim by the depositors next of kin of the valued at ($12.2million united state dollars) transfered into his/her as the next of kin as it is still negotiateable for release to the real beneficiary. Ever since no one has ever come for the claim of it and according to British Law/ the company law Act, at the expiration of 6 (six) years, the fund will revert to the ownership of the BANK , if nobody applies to claim it. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Christian Eich so that the fruits of this man's labour will not get into the hands of some self minded bank officials.It may interest you to know that I have secured from the probate an order of mandamus from THE BRITISH HIGH COURT to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries so that the fund will be transfered to any body i legititmately presented.This is a legitimate and constitutional adherence transaction that covers all the inheritance law within the British Empire and among the world at all as stipulated in British law of inheritance ordinance in 1902 and as amended in the year 2000. On receipt of this mail,I made this seldom contact to seek for your genuine collaboration and assistance in this business opportunity I wish to offer you,basically for investment purpose, it is legal and risk free and I will give you more details information as soon as I consolidate your readiness and interest, for I am afraid not to fall into the wrong hand, judging on the recent happenings in London now and the world at large. i will also made available to you where all this information will be verified directly with Barclays Bank Plc and other vital and legible source.Please feel free to make your interest known, as your response will be most appreciated.
