Good day.
I am sorry for contacting you through this medium without a previous
notice; I had to use email because it is an official and more confidential
way of making contact with people around the world. My name is Barrister.
Morgan Jones, a Fifty two (52) years old Attorney in practice here in
London. I had a client by name Mr. Charles Dare who is a British Citizen
and contractor based here in London now deceased. On the 2nd of August
2003, my client, his wife and their only child were involved in a car
accident on their way to Manchester along M25 Adytum Road.
Prior to the Death of my Late Client, He secured a contract of
$12,500,000.00 million from the British Airways, following which he
received a 30% mobilization fee of US$3,750,000.00 Million and
successfully executed the contract, but the balance of US$8,750,000.00
Million contract payment was in the Process of being transferred into My
Late Client's Account with BARCLAY`S BANK London which he submitted to the
British Airways before he lost his life in the incidence.
Two weeks after his sudden Death, The British Airways affected the
transfer of the balance of his Contract Funds into the Account that My
Late Client has on his file with them. As his personal attorney after his
death I have been officially notified and instructed by the BARCLAY`S BANK
London where the money is currently deposited that I should provide and
forward the particulars of Mr. Dare next of kin so that the Funds in his
Account can be remitted into his Next of Kin's Account in accordance with
British Laws. However, as the personal attorney and close confidant of
late Mr. Dare, I want you to know that my late Client died interstate, He
died without leaving a Will. Hence all my efforts to locate any of his
relative whom I can present to the Bank as his next of kin have proved
abortive.
Therefore I am seeking for your consent to present you as the deceased
relative/next of kin and subsequently the beneficiary of the fund so that
the proceed of this account valued at $8,750,000.00 Million can be paid to
you for subsequent disbursement between you and I. If you can cooperate
with me and receive these funds as next of kin to late Mr. Charles Dare,
Confirm your interest by contacting me through my confidential email
above. I can assure you that the deal is 100% risk free because I am in
possession of the deceased personal file which contains all information
which I shall use to prove your relationship with the deceased therefore
the money will be paid into the account of whomever I present as LATE Mr.
Dare Next of kin with proofs that I will present to the bank when needed.
When I receive a positive response and after proper discussion with you, I
will furnish you all relevant information that will facilitate the release
of the Funds to you. An Application will have to be filed to the Bank for
processing of the release of the Funds into your nominated Bank account
anywhere in the world. Send to me your private phone and fax numbers for
easy communication . Hope to hear from you through the above e-mail
address::: mor.jones44@live.com . Your Prompt response is highly imperative.
yours truly,
Barrister. Morgan Jones
