behalf of The
Trust Bank Ghana. This involves the late founder of our foundation who
shares the same surname with you and also the circumstances surrounding
his private funds deposited with The Trust Bank Ghana, the bank
contacted me a month ago as the director of his foundation and a trustee
to recommend a next of kin to the funds since he (Our Late founder) died
intestate and nominated no successor in title over the fund deposit made

The essence of this communication with you is to request that you provide me
with information/comments on any or all of the four issues as regards

have therefore contacted you to be legally nominated as next of kin
(inheritor) to Our Late founder after all inquiries and investigation

no known or living next of kin. You are required therefore to send your
contact information to enable me make my recommendation to The Trust 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 to stand as inheritor to this funds. Would you
agree to donate 60% of this inheritance to our charity organization if
you are officially recommended to the bank in my powers to stand as the

familiar with this personality or and your interest towards the issues
mentioned. You must appreciate that I am constrained from providing you
