Subject: An Offer From Mr Pyo
I need your help to repatriating the funds left behind by a late client that died. Every attempt to trace any member of his family has proved unsuccessful and abortive. Now I seek your consent to present you to the bank as next of kin for the deceased funds will be transferred into your account. Please reply to my private email : pyokeun@aim.com for more details.
Regards,
Mr. Pyo.K
