Subject: LET US ACHIEVE THIS TOGETHER

Good Day

I hope this message finds you and your family in good health. I am Dr. Gerhard, a Germany based Lawyer. I got your contact through your local directory while looking for someone we can jointly claim some funds together and share the benefit.

One of my client, an expatriate engineer who worked with a Construction & Civil Engineering Company (BAUER Group) here in Germany for Sixteen years died with his family in a Car Accident in 2017. Before his death, he deposited a total sum of €6,800,000 (Six million eight hundred thousand euros )with a bank here in Europe. Recently, the Bank contacted me requesting that I should notify the next of kin of my late client or relative to claim this funds or else the bank account will be confiscated and the money diverted to the treasury of the bank as unclaimed funds. So far, all my efforts to get hold of someone related to my client were fruitless.

In this regard, I want to introduce you to the Bank as the only maternal relative entitled to claim this fund. In this way, the fund will be transferred to you. I will use my position as his lawyer to put your name as the next of kin to my client since his immediate family members are no more. I have all the documents concerning the deposit with me and I shall also procure other legal documents that will make our claim authentic and facilitate the release of fund to you as the true and only surviving maternal relative to my late client.

You and I can share this money, you will be entitled to 50% of the total funds for your role, while the balance 50% will be for me. Please know that there is no risk involved because everything will be done under a clear and legitimate process.

All I require is your sincerity, honesty, co-operation and utmost good faith to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee that the process will be executed transparently and satisfactorily.

We can both use this money to better the lives of our family instead of been confiscated by the Bank. In approximately two weeks the transfer will be completed if we dedicate our time to it.

If you are interested, send me the following details

1. Your Name in Full:
2. Your Address:
3. Your Occupation:
4. Mobile number:
5. Your Age:
6. Your Gender:
