Dear Sir/Madam,
Good day. This is a personal email directed to you and I request that it be
treated as such. I am Corredor H. van Bogdanov, a solicitor at law living in

I am the personal attorney/sole executor to the late Jaidi Mohammed,
hereinafter referred to as 'my client' who worked as an independent oil
magnate in my country and who died in a car crash with his immediate family
on
the 4th of October in the year 2001. Since the death of my client, I have

More so, I have received official letters in the last few weeks suggesting a
likely proceeding for confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in line
with existing laws by the bank in which my client deposited the sum of Five
Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars (5.8 million U.S.D). On this note I
decided to search for a credible person and I was urged to contact you, that
I
may with your consent, present you to the "trustee" bank as my late
client's surviving family member so as to enable you put up a claim to the
bank in that capacity as a next of kin of my client.
I find this possible for the fuller reasons that with your confidentiality
it
would be easier for you to put up a claim to these funds. I propose that
38% of the net sum will accrue to you at the conclusion of this deal in
so far as I do not incurred further expenses.
Therefore, to facilitate the immediate transfer of this fund, you need to
contact me to signify your interest and as soon as I obtain your confidence,
I
will immediately appraise you with the complete details as well
as fax you the documents, with which we shall file for the claim. I shall
also
direct you on how to put up an application to the bank. However, you will
have
to accent to an express agreement which I will forward to you in order to
bind
us in this transaction.
Upon the receipt of your reply, I will send you by fax or E-mail the next
step
to take.I will not fail to bring to your notice that you should not
entertain
any fears as I have made all arrangements for the completion of this
transfer
once I get co-operation. Like I said, I require only a solemn
confidentiality
on this.
Please reply to me with this E-mail address: bogdanovvan_esq@yahoo.com.hk ,
for us
to start up the processing.
Best regards,
Corredor Huevel van Bogdanov.
