with(International Commercial Bank Ghana) before he died.This said amount
which the papers he used in depositing are still with me as am talking to
you and the bank are treating to confisticate the fund if any further
delay,for i told them that my client has a family,who will inherit the fund.

with my late client,so i deemed it fit to contact you,and ask for your
assistance in claiming this money.The essence of this communication with you
is to request that you provide me with your information as regards

and you are the only person that have the same sure name with him ,hence
eligible to stand for claim of the funds.

ready to come down to Ghana for me to meet with you officially.so that both
of us will go to the bank for you to sign some documents. But before then,
Am going to change all the documents in your name.Am therefore contacting
you to be legally nominated as next of kin (inheritor) to my Late client
.You are required therefore to answer this questions to enable me make my
recommendation to the International Commercial Bank Ghana.Can you confirm
your willingness to accept this inheritance if you are legally and
legitimately nominated through my recommendation to the bank and approved

the inheritor of the funds.
I want to assure you that once you provide me with your information,am going
to arrange for every document needed for this transaction in your favor .For
