From: Micheal Huntley.
Cannon Street, London EC4M 5SE,
London, UK
Greetings to you,
I did a lot of searching before choosing your contact from your country's
website and business online register. It is with trust and sincerity that I
approach you for assistance to transfer some funds into your bank account.
Please do accept my apology if my mail infringes on your personal ethics. My
name is Micheal Huntley, A Private Lawyer based here in London. Honestly it
will be my humble pleasure if we can work together.
I would like you to act as the next of kin to my deceased client who made a
deposit of GBÐ6,000,000.00 (Six Million Pounds Only) with a Finance House
here in London few years back. He died in an auto crash with his wife and
only child without any registered next of kin and as such the funds now have
an open beneficiary mandate with a Finance House here in London. This means
that any person from your country can act as the next of kin of the deceased
person for claiming the inheritance funds without any risk involved.
If you are interested in this transactions, Please do let me know
immediately so that I can give you comprehensive details on how to proceed.
I urgently hope to get your response as soon as possible.
