ANDREW CHAMBERS,
LEGAL PRACTITIONER AND NOTARY PUBLIC &
HIGH COURT REPRESENTATIVE,
8 PILGRIM STREET
EC4V 6LB LONDON,
Dear Friend
It is obvious that this proposal will come to you as a surprise.However, I am Barrister
Nelson Donell the personal Attorney to late Engr. Candy Odell a national of your country who used to work with Shell Development Company (SDC) here in London United Kingdom. On the 21st of April 2001, my client, his wife And their three children were involved in a car accident along Fletcher Express Road, Chiswick,London,UK.
Unfortunately they all lost their lives in the event of the accident, Since then I have made
several inquiries to several Embassies to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this
has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace
his relatives but of no avail, hence I contacted you.
I contacted you to assist in retrieving the money and property left behind by my client, I
can easily convince the bank with my legal practice that you are the only surviving relation
of my client. Otherwise the Estate he left behind will be confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposit was lodged. Particularly, the Bank where
the deceased had an account valued at about $12million U.S dollars (twelve million
U.S.America dollars).
Consequently, In accordance with the British Banking Laws, the Board of Directors of the
Bank met a forth night ago and resolved to turn the estate of the deceased over to the
Government having waited for so long without the deceased relatives/next of kin surfacing
and if this is done, Invariably the funds and the estate will end up becoming Government
property.
The bank today issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next ten official working days.since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over several years now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased, so that the proceeds of this account valued at $12million U.S dollars can be paid to your account and then you and i can share the money. 55%to me and 40% to you, while 5% should be for expenses or tax as your government may require. Your information such as:
1.Your full name
2.Resident Address
3.Telephone/Fax Numbers
4.Your Occupation
Is required for immediate commencement of this transaction. I have all necessary legal
documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make. All I require is your honest
cooperation to enable us see this deal through, I. guarantee you that this will be executed
under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please get in touch with me to enable us discuss further.
Regards,
Barrister Nelson Donell. (Esq)
