My client made a deposit of 4 Million pounds($7.5 Million USD.)with a Finance Company while working as an oil company contractor in the UK.He contracted me to be his attorney less than a year before his untimely death.Since then,there have not been any trace of claim from any person as the fund remains dormant in his account with the Finance Company.
Ever since I have been trying to locate any his relatives to come forward and make this claim ,but to no avail.
Right now,the deposit has exceeded its deposit time and terms without being serviced ,the Finance Company will either liquidate the fund or it will be converted by a top official to his private use.
Right now as i can not find the actual relatives to my client i seek your help in the transfer of this deposit to your possession,i can not take the money myself as i am the personal attorney and this is not possible,it will be easier to use some one outside here just like you,thus i have contacted you .
I have all documents concerning this transaction and will stand as your personal attorney on this transaction, i assure you can trust me and do not have to worry.
I do not want the money to be forfeited or liquidated by Government or the Finance Company as it will soon be done if not claimed I expect to benefit from the money also because i cannot let that amount get terminated and lost just like that. I only wish to get this money transfered , we can negotiate the terms of sharing on your agreement to
help .
If you wish to help please reply as soon as possible to show your seriousness to help.Do consider this and get back to me through my confidential email address which is thus:
byran.colemanesq1@gmail.com
Thanks for your co-operation.
