Subject: Consider This Proposal
>From Barrister Fenner Mark Elvis
Dear Friend,
It is with heartfelt hope that I write to seek your co-operation and assistance in the context stated below,
I am Barrister Fenner Mark Elvis, the personal Attorney to the late Mr. Nobert Spagele. I got your contact
through the help of my brother-in-law that works with the American Chambers of Commerce and Tourism,
though I did not disclose to him my humble intention for an honest foreigner like you, having noted the
confidence reposed on your person by the sponsor of the recommendation.
My late client was the Chief Executive officer of {Shell Development Company} for 15 years and he was
retired on the 30th day of September 2002. After a month, my client and his entire family died on their way
to a Conference in a Plane crash on the 30th day of October 2002.
Before his death my client had a total sum of GBP17.300,000.00(Seventeen Million, Three Hundred
Thousand Pounds) with a Finance House in hope of transferring the funds to his resident country {United
States of America} after his retirement as soon as he comes back from the conference but the timely
never allowed him carry out his plans to make the funds transfer.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 4 years now .I seek your consent to
present you as the next of kin of my client. I agree to pay you 40% of the fund as the account owner,
60% for me.
I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make, if you are
interested please send the following information.
1)Your full names and address for applying for claim and securing the necessary documents in your
names
2)Your Private telephone, email and fax numbers for easy communication and transmitting of documents.
3) Your age/Occupation All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see this transaction
through.
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 by my e-mail address fenmarkelvischambers@lawyer.com to enable us
discuss further.
Thanks and God bless
Barrister Mark Elvis
