Dear Friend,
I hope that this letter will not constitute a sort of embarrasement to you. Please bear with me let me introduce myself.
I am Barrister Chuks Ometa, a private attorney to the deceased as mentioned herein. Mr. Frednard Downs ,a National of your country,who was a consultant with Texaco oil Company in Nigeria and a personal friend died and left behind his deposit in a finance house(Tropical Finance & Securities) valued at $10,500,000.00(TEN Million FIVE Thousand United States Dollars Only). My relationship with Mr.Frednard started in 1992 when I was working with the security company as a supervisor, Marina branch. We met in my social club's annual end of the year party and I introduced him to the said security company where he deposit most of his treasures some few weeks later, making me the LEGAL officer to the account which he operated until his unfortunate demise. On the 1st of June 2001, Mr. Frednard , his wife and their three children wereinvolved in a car accident . All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of Mr. Fr!
ednard's extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, to locate any member of his
family hence I contacted you. I am contacting you to assist in repatriating the money left behind by Mr. Frednard before they get confiscated since the SECURITY COMPANY has declared the account unserviceable. I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 2 years since I was retired
as a Senior Manager from a transfer that took me to another branch of the bank. I therefore seek yourconsent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased, so that the proceeds of this account valued at $10,5,000.00 (TEN Million FIVE Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only) can be paid to you and then you and I can share the money. 70% forme and 30% to you. I have access to all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up 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 through my email or phone and send to me the following info:
your full name ............................age.............

Address.......................... Occupation..............
The above requested info will enable us discuss further about this transaction.You can also contact me through my alternative email: chumeta@ymyway.com your soonest co-operation.
