Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients
extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these
several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to contact you. I contacted
you to assist in repatriating the money left behind by my client before
they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank.
Consequently, Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives
for over 5 weeks now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at
US$20.2 million can be paid to you and then you and me can share the
money. 65% to me and 35% to you.I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make. All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see this deal through.
I guarantee that this will be executed under
a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the
law. All documents of transaction will be destroyed immediately we
receive this money leaving no trace to any place.If this proposal is
acceptable to you, kindly email your following information to me:
