Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Raymond Cole from London United Kingdom.I am the Personal Attorney to late Engr John ,who is a Nationale of your country and he used to work with a manufacturing company here in london. On the 31st of november 2004, My client, his wife and their only son involved in a fatal motor accident along Oaklands Roads, Hanwell-London and unfortunately, They all lost their
lives in the event of the accident, Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives and this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the Internet to locate any member of his family but of no avail, hence I contacted you. I contacted you to assist me in repatriating the money and property left behind by my late client before they get
confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where these huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly a Bank where the deceased deposited the sum of $4 Million U.S Dollars. Conseqently, the Bank have issued me a notice to provide the next of kin to the deceased or they will have the funds confiscated within a short period of time.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over some years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you bear the same last name with him so that this $4 Million U.S Dollars can be released to you as the next of kin to my
late client.
For both of us to share the money, I propose 55% to my self and 35% to you for your expected assistance, while 10% should be set aside for settling all expenses or tax as the government of your country may require All the necessary documents that can be used to back up the claim
of this fund will be processed in your name as soon as we agreed together. All I require from you now is your honest co-operation to enable us see this deal through.
I guaranteed that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law here in London or in your country. Please kindly get in touch with me through my private email address above to enable us discuss in details about this transaction.
Remember to include your full names and your contact address, Also your private telephone, Fax and mobile Numbers for easier communication. Please contact me again

Barr.Raymond Cole.
