I am Barrister godwin chukwuma The Personal Attorney to late Mr George K.Marshal, who was a contractor here in Benin Rep.

As a matter of fact, my client made a fixed deposit Amount, valued at (USD$5.9M)with Arab Bank here in Benin Rep, and upon the duration time of their agreement, his bank started contacting him but no response.
Consequently, the bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin to the deceased as his personal attorney, or have his account confiscated after four years, as it is in the law of this country. Since then, I have made several contacts to His Countries Embassy in order to locate any of my clients extended relatives, which had also been unsuccessful.
Since I have been unsuccessfully in locating the relatives for over two years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since none of his relatives were no way to be found so that the proceeds of this account valued at $5.9m could be transferred into your account, thereafter, we will both share it in percentage according to our contributions to boost the success of this great transaction.
