On the 21st of April 2005, my client, his wife and their only son were involved in a car accident along bagida express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost there lives. Since then I have made several enquirers to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any Member of his family hence I contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the assets and Capital valued at US$25.5million left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the BANK Lome-Togo West Africa where these huge deposits were lodged. The said Bank, has issued me a notice to provide the next of Kin or have the account confiscated within the next twenty Official working days.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over years now, I seek the consent to present you as the Next of kin to the deceased since you have the same last names, so that theproceeds of this account can be paid to you.
Therefore, on receipt of your positive response, we shall then discuss the sharing ratio and modalities for transfer. I have all necessary information and legal documents needed to back you up for claim.
All I require from you is your honest cooperation 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.
