numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve calendar months, Valued at US$16,500,000.00(sixteen Million Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars )in my branch upon maturity.I sent a routine notification to his forwarding
address but got no reply.After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we
discovered from his contract employers, the Petroleum Corporation that Mr. David Ameeraly, died in the plane
crash On October 31, 1999, (an Egyptian Boeing 767 Flight 990) with other passengers on board as you can

On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL and attempts to trace his next
of kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. David Ameeraly.
did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents, including his bank deposit
paperwork in my bank. This sum of US$16,500,000.00 and the interest is being rolled over with the principal
sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it According to UNITTED ARAB EMIRATES

EMIRATES Government if nobody applies to claim the fund.
my proposal is that I will like you to stand as the next of kin to Mr. David Ameeraly, so that the fruit
of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt Government officials. This is simple, I
will like you to provide immediately your full name and address so that I can forward to you the contact
of our bank Attorney for the prepare of the necessary documents and affidavits which will put you in place as the next of kin.
