Subject: I appreciate your efforts
Dear Client,
I am very sorry for the informal manner in which this letter is reaching you, as this was necessitated by my urgent need to reach
a dependable and trustworthy foreign contact, This request may seem unsolicited for or perhaps otherwise but i hope to crave your
indulgence and pray that you take my request seriously.
I am Mr.Nadia Francis an emloyee with (A. D & Co.), however i am representing one of our clients, Late Mr. Miodrag Kovak, Former Yugoslav
Minister of Health, as an Insurance and management consultant, he Mr. Miodrag Kovak employed my personal assistance to service his
personal/private deposit with A. D & Co. (Asia Deposits & Co.)
On July 16, 2003 upon maturity of the deposition i made all frantic efforts to contact Mr. Kovak but all efforts to reach him proved abortive.
I was forced to travel to Yugoslavia and there i got the tragic news that Mr. Miodrag Kovac committed suicide in his hote room in Madrid (Spain).
After further investigation, i also discovered that Mr. Kovak did not declare any Next of Kin in his official declaration files and
since after his death past 3yrs this deposit has been lying unattended and no one has forwarded claims or renewals of this deposits.
What bothers me most and also which has promted me in contacting a trustworthy and reliable foreign partner is the fact that
according to the laws governing insurance and depositary sector in my country (??), at the expiration of a deposit investment, if
nobody files for claims or renewals after a period of given time, the Fund, Bond Certificate or Articles automatically reverts to
the government/firm purse as unclaimed.
Against this backdrop i am proposing to you as a foreigner to stand as the Next of Kin to Mr. Kovak so as to transfer this
deposits to any foreign country you could provide me with, Should you be interested, please send me your private
TEL/FAX/EMAIL included in a mail to me expressing your assistance and interest and then there after i will disclose the full
detail and contents of the whole matter, including myself hence i am asuring you a 100% risk free transaction
However i will transfer the necessary documents and in-depth details of this transaction to you for your review and also
proposing a 10% commission for your assistance.
Finally i am using this opportunity, imploring you to "PLEASE" exercise the utmost indulgence in keeping this matter extra
ordinarily confidential and away from third party whatever your decisions may be while i await your urgent responce.
Please reach me urgently on (fat-fa02@she.com),my secretary.
Thanking you for your anticipated co-operation
Sincerely Yours
Nadia F.C
