ATTN Friend
I am Barrister Harison Koudjo, a solicitor at law,personal attorney to
Mr.M., a national Of your country, who used to work with Shell Development
Company in Lome Togo. Here in after shall be referred to as my client. On
the 21st of April 2003, my client, his wife and their only daughter were
involved in a car accident along Nouvissi Express Road. All occupants of the
vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then i have made several
enquiries to your embassy here to locate any of my clients extended
relatives,this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name
over the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist in repartriating the fund valued at US$8.5
million left behind by my client before it gets confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the Union Togolaise Banque where this huge amount was
deposited. The said Union Togolaise Banque has for sometime now issued me a
notice to provide the next of kin of my client or his account shall be
declared dormant or possibly confiscated.
Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for over 2years
now, I seek the consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased
since you have the same last names, so that the proceeds of this account can
be paid to you. Therefore, on receipt of your positive response,we shall
then discuss the sharing ratio and modalities for transfer.I have all
necessary information and legal documents needed to back you up for claim.
All I require from you is your honest cooperation to enable us see this
transaction through.
My conected email address:- (harison_koudjo1@hotmail.com)
Please get in touch with me through the above e-mail for more details.
Best Regards.
Barrister Harison Koudjo.
