GREETINGS TO YOU,
This is a personal email directed to you and I request that it be treated as such. I am Brain Walker, a
personal attorney/sole executor to the late Engineer Robert M. hereinafter referred to as" my client" I
represent the interest of my client killed with his immediate family in a fatal motor accident in East London
on November 5, 2002. and I will like to negotiate the terms of investment of resources available to him.
My late client worked as consulting engineer & sub-comptroller with Genesis Oil and Gas Consultants Ltd
here in the United Kingdom and had left behind a deposit of Six Million Eight Hundred Thousand British
Pounds Sterling only (£6.8million) with a finance company. The funds originated from contract
transactions he executed in his registered area of business. Just after his death, I was contacted by the
finance house to provide his next of kin, reasons been that his deposit agreement contains a residuary
clause giving his personal attorney express authority to nominate the beneficiary to his funds. Unknown
to the bank, Robert had left no possible trace of any of his close relative with me, making all efforts in my
part to locate his family relative to be unfruitful since his death. In addition, from Roberts own story, he
was only adopted and his foster parents whom he lost in 1976, according to him had no possible trace of
his real family.
The funds had remained unclaimed since his death, but I had made efforts with intent to locate any of his
extended relatives whom shall be claimants/beneficiaries of his abandoned personal estate, and all such
efforts have been to no avail. More so, I have received official letters in the last few weeks suggesting a
likely proceeding for confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in line with existing laws by the bank
However, it will interest you to know that I discovered that some directors of this finance company are
making plans already to have this fund to themselves only to use the excuse that since I am unable to
find a next of kin to my late client then the funds should be confiscated, meanwhile their intentions is to
have the funds retrieved for themselves.
I reasoned very professionally and resolved to use a legal means to retrieve the abandoned funds, and
that is to present the next of kin of my deceased client to the bank. This is legally possible and would be
done in accordance with the laws. On this note, I decided to search for a credible person and finding
that you bear a similar last name, I was urged to contact you, that I may, with your consent, present you
to the "trustee" bank as my late client's surviving family member so as to enable you put up a claim to the
bank in that capacity as a next of kin of my client. I find this to be possible for the fuller reasons that you
are of the same nationality and you bear a similar last name with my late client making it a lot easier for
you to put up a claim in that capacity. I have all vital documents that would confer you the legal right to
lay claim to the funds, and it would back up your claim. I am willing to make these documents available to
you so that the p roceeds of this bank account valued at £6.8million can be paid to you before it is
confiscated or declared unserviceable to the bank where this huge amount is lodged.
I do sincerely sympathize the death of my client but I think that it is unprofitable for his funds to be
submitted to the government of this country or some financial institution. I seek your assistance since I
have been unable to locate the relatives for the past four years now and since no one would come for
the claim. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you have the
same last name giving you the advantage which also makes the claim most credible . In that stand, the
proceeds of this account can be paid to you. Then, we talk about percentage. I know there are others
with the same surname as my client, but after a little search, my instinct tells me to contact you. I shall
assemble all the necessary documents that would be used to back up your claim.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any
breach of law. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this proposal is hitch-free and that you should not
entertain any fears as the required arrangements have been made for the completion of this transfer. As I
said, I require only a solemn confidentiality on this. Please get in touch via my alternative email
rowlandchamberslondon@yahoo.co.uk for better confidentiality and if okay by you, send me your
telephone and fax numbers to enable us discuss further on this transaction. Contact number is
+44-7946668322 (Calling me should not be any problem all you need to do is to dial your country code
before dialling my number Tel: +44-7946668322) If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue
advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you, Thanks for your understanding.
