Subject: Dear Friend,
Dear Friend,
I work in a security company in Amsterdam the Netherlands, and late last year Mr. Spasov Raycho from Macedonia who have lived all his life in South Africa and married to a South African woman whom he divorced September 2004, he was a big transporter based in cap town He died early this year in a hospital in South Africa.
Before his death he was having problem with his wife who did not have any child for him, the wife was treating to take over his company in a divorced suit, but before the suit was heard in the court Mr. Spasov Raycho packed all his money both at home and in the bank and deposited it with our security company, he deposited it as family items of high value because the company will not accept it if the know is cash. But on the day of the deposit I was the vault manger in charge and he confides in me that it was cash and I opted to assist him. He declared bankruptcy before the divorce case was heard.
On his visit to our company in Amsterdam, I went to dinner with him and he gave me a complimentary card and on the back of the card was written your e-mail address and that is how I got your contact.
Now that his is dead and did not fill any name as his next of kin in the form he filed when depositing the fund and has neither children nor wife, I deemed it fit to contact you on the issue of claiming the deposit which amounted to $12million in cash. Our company will soon hand over the money to government if no one comes to lay claim on it. I am contacting you because I believe that he must have had contact with you or business during the cause of his life.
I will help you to get all the papers that will be needed to make the claim without any problem and we will share the fund 50% to 50% but due to the fact that am working in the company I can not lay claims on the money so that is why I want you to come into it. It will be safe and free from any legal action because I am in charge of the deposit.
Get back to me as soon as you get this e-mail to let me know your position so that we can start without wasting time, and within two weeks every thing will be done and you can smile away with $6million.get back to me on this e-mail sillim11@netscape.net
Best regards,
Peter Sillim
