December 2003, with his entire family were perished in Air -Crash on

matter of fact, My client made a fixed deposit Amount, valued at
(USD$10.7M) with Reliance Bank here in Benin Rep, and upon the duration
time of their agreement,his bank started contacting him but no response.
Conseqently, The bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin to
the deceased as his personal attorney,or have his account
confiscated after four years, as it is in the law of this country.
Since then, I have made several contacts to His Countries Embassy in
order to locate any of my clients extended relatives,which had also
been unsuccessful. Since I have been unsuccesfull in
locating the relatives for over two years now, I seek your consent to
present you as the next of kin of the deceased since none of his
relatives were no way to be found so that the proceeds of this account
valued at $10.7m could be transffered into your account, thereafter,we will
both share it in percentage according to our contributions to boost the
success of this great transaction. I have all the necessary legal
documents that can be used to back up all the claims we will make. All
I require is your honest cooperation to enable us make this great
benefiting transaction successfully.I guarantee that this will be
executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any
breach of the law. Please get in touch with me as fast as possible
