I was the personal account officer to MR lewton Mckenze , who was a a big time Oil dealer. Unfortunately, he died in the plane Crash of Union Transport Africaines Flight Boeing 727 in Cotonou , Benin republic on the December 25, 2003.

Since his death I have made several enquiries to his embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided and solicit for the partnership of a trustworthy foreigner whom will apply to our bank as the next of kin to my late client to enable me repatriated the fund overseas. This is why I have contacted you. The bank has informed that if the deposit is not claimed within a few working days, the said deposit will declared unserviceable by the Bank and forfeited to the federal government as the law governing abandoned deposit in my country stipulates. Hence, the bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the money forfeited within the next few official working days.

Should this meet your utmost consideration, please give me your earliest reply through my email for further details. Please feel free to ask any question you consider necessary. Myself will acquire all legal documents that can be used to back up the claim. 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 and I from any breach of the law. The confidentiality in this transaction can not be overemphasized as I trust and believe that you will oblige me the security and attention it demands. Please treat this transaction with absolute confidentiality. Best regards,Mr Jubril Amos.
