Subject: I NEED YOUR KIND ASSISTANCE (Not junk mail)
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Barrister JOHN KOMASON, a Solicitor and Advocat at Law.
I am personal Attorney to Late Engineer ALEXEY EROMOSEN,
of the Oil company below, who till his death was a contractor with Moenier Oil & Gas Consult in Accra Ghana.
On the 28th of November 2000, Engr.Alexey Eromosen, his wife and their two children were involved in a car accident along
Gwagwalada express road and all occupants of the vehicle
unfortunately lost their lives.
My client deposited a CONSIGNMENT of US$10.5Million dollars
as family belongings{i.e jewellries} in a Security & Finance Company. Since his death, I have made several enquiries to locate any of my client's extended relatives. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his last name to locate any member of his family still impossible.
I have contacted you to assist in repartrating this consignment
which is money left behind by my client before it is confiscated or forfeited to the security company where this huge deposit was lodged. The Finance Company where my deceased client had deposited his consignment, have issued me a notice to provide Next of Kin of my late client or have his consignment forfeited within the next one(1) month.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating any of his relatives,
therefore, I wish to seek your consent, to present you, as Next of Kin to the deceased as his In-law or extended relative so that the proceeds of this deposit valued at $10.5 million dollars can be handed over to you and then you, my colleague and myself can share the money accordingly.
I will secure all relevant legal documents that will back you up for this claim. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction went through.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of law. If you are ready for this business, kindly provide your contact information such as telephone, your full name, address,age and occupation to enable us commence immediately. Contact me on my private e-mail: johnkoma1959@yahoo.com
