Attention Ed. Kraakman
I am Barrister kevin Ike ,a solicitor at law and a personal attorney to Late Mr P.O.Kraakman,here in after shall be referred to as my client.My client worked as an independent contractor to the Shell Development Company here in Lome Togo.On the 21st of April 2005, my client, his wife and their only daughter were involved in a car accident along Nouvissi express Road and all occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives.
Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessfull. I have contacted you to assist in repartrating fund valued at Twenty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars only($US 25.500,000.00) left behind by my client with a Finance Security Firm here in Lome Togo before it gets confisicated or declared unserviceable by the Finance Firm where this amount were deposited.The Director of the Finance company contacted me on friday 15-08-2003 and asked that I as the attorney to the late should present either his cousins or his next of kin so that they will release and transfer the fund left in their custody.Ever since then, I have made several attempts to locate any of his cousins or next of kin so that they will come forward to put in claims to the said fund but unfortunately, I discovered that in all his files with my chambers,he never metioned having any relatives nor cousin's. After several
attempts to trace any of his relative,I decided to contact you.
One fact remains clear,that anybody I present to the bank as his next of kin,shall inherit the fund and it is based on this fact that I ask you to get back to me immediately so that we both will discuss on terms of pertnership in this issue so that I will forward your name to the bank as his legitimate next of kin backed up with a sworn affidavit of oaths from the magistrate court of Togo.
Be advised that this transaction is 100% risk-free as this transaction will remain sealed for life at the conclusion which will not take more than Three weeks. I await your immediate response so that I will give you a more comprehensive detail as regards to this transaction.Reply and Call me lmmediately on +228 938 7144 My private e-mail address ikechambers2007@hotmail.com
