Subject: Hello
FROM THE DESK OF DENNIS OKE (CONSULTANT)TELEPHONE NUMBER: +234-7030780335
Hello
I got your contact in course of my inquiry to locate Relations of my Deceased Client who died with his family in a car crash on 5th August 2005. Please I need your assistance to repatriate the sum of US$10.5M which my Deceased Client left behind in a Finance Company.
The Account containing this fund has been dormant since his demise and the Finance Company is threatening to confiscate the fund as "Unclaimed Deposit". Rather leaving the fund confiscated; based on the fact that you share the same last name with my Deceased Client I seek your consent and assistance to nominate you as my Deceased Client's Relation under legal process and risk free to repatriate the fund as I have the jurisdiction as the Deceased's P.A to testify the Deceased's Relation.
Also I have the documents to complete the transaction. What I require is your willingness to assist me and to treat the transaction as confidential. Contact me for further information and commencement of the transaction.
Yours faithfully,DENNIS OKE.+234-7030780335
