LONDON,UNITED KINGDOM

Dear Beneficiary

With due respect to you,i am sorry for any inconveniences or embarrassment my letter of assistance may have caused you. I crave your indulgience for the unsolicited nature of this letter, but it was borne out of desperation and current development.I know the content of this letter may come to you as a suprise,please accept the content in good faith. I do not intend to cause any grief to you and your family. The reason for sending this mail is very fundamental to the doctrine of human privileges and rights.

My name is Barrister Edward Thomas a legal practitioner with the Edward Thomas CHAMBERS based in London and the personal Attorney to a national of your country who died along with his wife and two sons who died in the Tubeexplosion between King's Cross-and Russell Square in London. My client was a successful and is an accomplished family man, who made enough fortune before his untimely death. Since then I had made several inquiries through your Embassy to locate any of my clients extended relative but this exercise has proved unsuccessful. After several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives through the Internet,to locate any member of his family, not much progress was recorded.

My late client was an influential wealthy businessman,an oil magnet here in London and he left behind a deposit of Thirty Million United States Dollars only ($30,000,000.00usd) in his domiciliary bank accountin a commercial bank here in London After the death of my client his bankers contacted me,as his Attorney to provide his next of kin who should inherit his funds. The board of directors of his bank adopted a resolution and I was mandated to provide his next of kin for the payment of this money within 10 working days or forfeit the money to the bank as an abandoned property. The bankers had planned to invoke the abandoned property decree of 1996 to confiscate the funds after the expiration of the period given to me. Fortunately, in the verge of my search, came across your name through a constancy firm in your chamber of commerce here in the UK that provided me with
your reputable data and to my greatest astonishment, I discovered that you bear the same surname with my late client and coincidentally, you are nationals of the same country. Being convinced that you might provide clue to my search, I therefore,decided to contact you with these facts before me, because of the similarities. By virtue of my closeness to the deceased and his immediate family, I am very much aware of my client financial standing and the bank account he operates.

I have reasoned very professionally and I feel it will be legally proper to present you as the next of kin of my deceased client, so that you can be paid the funds left in his bank account. I therefore seek your consent to present you as the Next of Kin to the Deceased since you are at an advantage, bearing the same surname and equally from the same country, that the proceeds of this Bank Account valued at $30 Million Dollars can be paid to you. We shall both share the funds. 40% for me and 55% to you, while 5% should be for Expenses or your Government may require as Tax. I shall assemble all the necessary Legal Documents that will be used
to back up our claim. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us seeing this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of law.
