Subject: BUSINESS PROPOSAL FROM Mohammed Ali Esq
My name is Mr. Mohammed Ali I am a legal practitioner Mohammed Ali Chamber in Johor Bahru, Malaysia.
I saw your contact and profile I decided that you could cooperate with me in this proposition.
I have a client who was deceased in November, 2001, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I am contacting you because you have the same surname as my deceased client and I felt that you could help me in the distribution of funding that were left in my deceased client's bank account. This funding is closed to be declared UN-serviceable by the bank as there were no indicated next of kin or next of beneficiary of the funding in the bank account.
The total amount of cash in the bank account of my deceased client is US$8.7 Million (Say, Eight Million, Seven Hundred Thousand US$), only.
The bank had issued to me a notification to contact the next of kin of my deceased client for either to re-activate the bank account or to make claim of beneficiary, of the funding in the bank account, with a month surcharge of 6% to be deducted as an Escrow safe keeping fee of the bank account, so as to avoid the indefinite closure of the bank account.
My proposition to you is to seek your consent, and to present your kind self as the next-of-kin and beneficiary of my deceased client, since you have the same last name with him.
This means that the proceeds of his bank account would be paid to you as his next of kin or the legitimate beneficiary. When the proceeds in his bank account are paid to you, we will share the proceeds on a mutually agreed-upon percentage of 60% to me and 40% to your kind self.
All the legal documents to back up your claim as my client's next-of-kin would be provided by me.
The most important thing I would need is your honest cooperation to in this proposition. This will be done under a legitimate arrangement that would protect you from any breach of the law.
If this business proposition offends your moral and ethic values, do accept my sincere apology. Please contact me at once if youâre interested by replying the mail and ignore it if you are not.
Best regards,
Mr. Mohammed Ali Esq.
