Subject: I NEED YOUR UPDATE.

Good Day

I am Fred Y.Adiyia (Esq.) I must solicit your confidence in this transaction; this is by virtue of the nature as being utterly confidential. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and overwhelmed, but I am assuring you that all will be well.

The project I am presenting to you is a case of my late client, who willed USD$9.4million to his next-of-kin. It was most unfortunate that him and his next-of-kin died on the same day in an auto-crash, am now faced with indecision about who to pass the funds to.

This email might come as a surprise to you, since there was no previous correspondence between us. My purpose of contacting you is for you to help secure the funds left behind by my late client, to avoid it being confiscated or declared unclaimed by the financial institution.

The financial institution has issued me a notice to contact the existing relative on this first quarter of year 2015, less the account will be declared unclaimed and the funds diverted to the financial institution's treasury.

So far, all my efforts to get hold of someone related to my late client have proved abortive. I am actually asking for your Consent to present you to the financial institution as the Next of Kin/beneficiary of my late client's fund, so that the proceeds of this will be released to you. I shall provide all the documents to back up the claim as my client's Next of Kin Dr.Hahn, and both of you may have the same last name.

All I require is your honest co-operation and to enable us achieves this transaction. I wish to point out that I want 10% of this money to be shared among charity Organizations, while the remaining 90% would be shared equally between us. This transaction is entirely risk free. I will use my position as the client's attorney to guarantee the successful execution of this transaction.

I need your response for more details to proceed

Fred Y.Adiyia (Esq.)
