Subject: A MATTER OF IMPORTANCE
Hello,I am Mr. Evans Marchant, a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney to Mr. Morris Szczesniak, a businessman from your country. On the 20th of June 2002, my client, his wife and their two children were involved in a car accident in which all occupants of the vehicle died. My client deposited as family belongings in a Bank in London, the sum of (17 Million United States Dollars ), with the hope of transferring it to his country as soon as he is on leave. I have made several attempt to locate any of my clients extended relatives but to no avail.I am contacting you to assist in repatriating the money left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Bank where the deposit was made. The Bank has issued me a notice to provide a next of kin or have the money confiscated within the next Fourteen official working days...locating any of them have been unsuccessfully for over 2 years now.If you will help please include your phone and fax
number in your response for better communication. God bless you and your family.Best regards,Evans Marchant.
