Subject: Re: Can I trust you?

Hello,

Please note that this letter is not intended to cause any embarrassment in whatever form, rather it is intended to contact your esteemed self, following the knowledge of your high repute and trustworthiness.

Firstly, I must solicit your confidentiality knowing fully well that a proposal of this magnitude will make anyone apprehensive but I am assuring you that it is 100% risk free, made in good faith and will be of mutual benefit.

I am John Walter, the Head of Accounts and Reconciliation Her Majesty Treasury United Kingdom and I have recently been saddled with the responsibilities of investigating and identifying the true beneficiaries of some huge unclaimed deposits in deceased accounts of some Banks under our jurisdiction and a preliminary investigation reveals that Seventy Million United States Dollars ($70,000,000) out of the unclaimed deposits belong to one Mr. Dean Delmar who was one of the victims of the Malaysia Airline flight MH370 that disappeared on 8 March 2014 while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing Chinau in which Mr.Dean Delmar unfortunately along with his wife, their only child and other passengers lost their lives in the process.

Further investigations reveals that several effort has been made to locate any of his extended relatives even to the Embassy of his Country but all these proved unsuccessful and until his death was a major Sugar dealer in Europe.

At this point, the UK Treasury has issued a notice to me, unequivocally instructing me to produce the Next of Kin/Beneficiary to the said deposit in a deceased account within the next ten official working days, or have the account declassified and fully taken over by UK Treasury to enable the government channel it to other uses.

Kindly note that after series of consideration regarding the lack of success in a bid to locate his relatives for over Four years by the Bank and also by me since saddled with the new responsibility, I solicit your consent to enable me present you as the Next of Kin to deposit in the deceased account and it might interest you to know that I am the only one who knows the circumstances surrounding your emergence as the next of kin and also I am the only one authorized to present the next of kin and whoever I present will be the one to be approved to receive the funds.

Base on this development, i am contacting you to assist me in securing the deposit left behind by Mr.Dean Delmar before they are declared as unclaimed by UK Treasury and subsequently advise the Bank to move it to the national Treasury for other uses. However, the New law of succession/claims/fund here indicates a duration in which such claims could be tolerated and this has made UK Treasury mandate me to investigate, identify and present the next of kin who will claim the funds and failure to respond to this ultimatum would legally allow the UK Treasury to take possession of the deposit as unclaimed funds (Lacle of supersede).

Please note that with my input that the funds will be approved and released to you as the new beneficiary/ next of kin and upon the arrival the funds into your bank account, we shall proceed to share the funds according to a proposed sharing pattern/ratio of 50:50 i.e. 50% for me and 50% for you but if you have a contrary opinion regarding the sharing ratio, please state it clearly in your response to enable us agree.

Furthermore, I will require your understanding and cooperation to enable us achieve the expected success within a legitimate arrangement, eliminating any liability resulting from any breach of the prevalent laws as everything must be done within the ambit of the laws with high level of confidentiality,trust and transparency.

Finally, your swift response will be appreciated via my secured email as stated below to enable me give you more details : johnwalt60@outlook.com

Thank you.

Regards,
John Walter
