Subject: GOOD DAY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Dear Sir/Madam,Greetings and Compliments of the day,My name is Mr Chris Davies,I am the credit manager of a Finance Bank here in UK. I am contacting you of a business transfer, of a huge sum of money from a deceased account. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that everything has been taken care off, and all will be well ifyou are really honest with me.I decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.PROPOSITION; I am the account officer of a foreigner named Carolyn Clemetson and her husband David Clemetson who died in an air crash along with his wife on the January 31 in an Alaska airline Flight 261 with other passengers on board.http://archives.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska.airlines.list/Since his death, none of his next-of-kin are alive to make claims for this money as his heir, because they all died in the same accident himself and his wife (May their soul rest in peace). We
cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. Upon this discovery, I now seek your permission to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully worked out by me for the funds (US$38m,600,000,00) to be released in your favor as thebeneficiary's next of kin Because after four years the money will be called back to the bank treasury as unclaimed bills and the money shared amongst the directors of the bank.so it is on this note i decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the next of kin/beneficiary to this funds rather than allow the bankdirectors to share this money amongst themselves at the end of the year. It may interest you to know that we have secured from theprobate an order of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries.Please acknowledge receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business endeavor by
furnishing me with the following information if you are interested.1.A Beneficiary name?.In order for me to prepare the document for transfer of the funds in your name.2. Direct Telephone and fax numbers.For our personal contact and mutual trust in each other.I shall be compensating you with 30% of the fund on final conclusion of this project for your assistance and 5% of it will also be used to settle all our individual expensis to make thistransaction a success, while the balance 65% shall be for me for investment purposes.Because I intend to retire after the conclusion of this transaction. If this proposal is acceptable by you, please endeavor to contact me immediately. Do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you,Regards and God bless you!Mr Chris Davies.
