Subject: Await for the joint efforts
Dear friend,
I am clarathan Eric. Working with Finance and Securities Company in Europe.
Presently we have in our position a large sum of money which we received as a consignment , to deliver to one of our clients a filipino sailor who died in a brief illness.
I have made every effort to source the relations or any one next to him which I could not. I am in charge of deposit and have all the necessary instruments to make the claim if I have a reliable person to assist.
The funds will be confiscated if no one is coming for the claim, so if you are interested to stand as a relation to him, urgently let me know through this email address(clarathaneric@freesurf.fr [mailto:clarathaneric@freesurf.fr]) for more detail and ho w to proceed.
Regards
Clarathan Eric
