Good day.
I am sorry for contacting you through this medium without a previous
notice; I had to use email because it is an official and more
confidential way of making contact with people around the world. My name is dennis
Michaels a Forty two (42) years old Attorney in practice here in London.
I had a client by name Mr. Charles Dare who is a British Citizen and
contractor based here in London now deceased. On the 2nd of August 2003,
my client, his wife and their only child were involved in a car
accident on their way to Manchester along M25 Adytum Road.
Prior to the Death of my Late Client, He secured a contract of
$12,500,000.00 million from the British Airways, following which he received a
30% mobilization fee of US$3,750,000.00 Million and successfully
executed the contract, but the balance of US$8,750,000.00 Million contract
payment was in the Process of being transferred into My Late Client's
Account with BARCLAY`S BANK London which he submitted to the British
Airways before he lost his life in the incidence.
Two weeks after his sudden Death, The British Airways affected the
transfer of the balance of his Contract Funds into the Account that My Late
Client has on his file with them. As his personal attorney after his
death I have been officially notified and instructed by the BARCLAY`S
BANK London where the money is currently deposited that I should provide
and forward the particulars of Mr. Dare next of kin so that the Funds in
his Account can be remitted into his Next of Kin's Account in
accordance with British Laws. However, as the personal attorney and close
confidant of late Mr. Dare, I want you to know that my late Client died
interstate, He died without leaving a Will. Hence all my efforts to locate
any of his relative whom I can present to the Bank as his next of kin
have proved abortive.
Therefore I am seeking for your consent to present you as the deceased
relative/next of kin and subsequently the beneficiary of the fund so
that the proceed of this account valued at $8,750,000.00 Million can be
paid to you for subsequent disbursement between you and I. If you can
co-operate with me and receive these funds as next of kin to late Mr.
Charles Dare, Confirm your interest by contacting me through my
confidential email above. I can assure you that the deal is 100% risk free
because I am in possession of the deceased personal file which contains all
information which I shall use to prove your relationship with the
deceased therefore the money will be paid into the account of whomever I
present as LATE Mr. Dare Next of kin with proofs that I will present to the
bank when needed.
When I receive a positive response and after proper discussion with
you, I will furnish you all relevant information that will facilitate the
release of the Funds to you. An Application will have to be filed to
the Bank for processing of the release of the Funds into your nominated
Bank account anywhere in the world. Send to me your private phone and
fax numbers for easy communication and do reply me through my private
email address: dennis_michaels@yahoo.com for more informations. Hope to
hear from you through the above e-mail address. Your Prompt response is
highly imperative.
Yours truly,
Dennis Michaels.
