Dear friend,
I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the money
and property left behind by Engr. Smith who died in an auto accident
with his entire family before they got confisticated or declared
unserviceable by the bank.
Since i have been unsuccessful in locating
the relatives for over 2 years now I seek your consent to present you
as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this
account valued at US$11.5M (Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars)can be paid to you.
All I require is your honest cooperation. I guarantee that this will be executed
under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach
of the law.
Best Regards and get back to me
Your's Faithfully,
Mr.MARK IVES
