Subject: AN OVERDUE INHERITANCE CLAIM

Dear My Good Friend,
I am Christopher Wilmot,Group Head of Treasury & Global Markets FBN
BANK in United Kingdom .I write you this proposal in good faith hoping
that I will rely on you in a business transaction that require
absolute confidentiality and of great interest and benefit to our both
families.
In 2007,one Mr. Wilfred, an Emirate Citizen who has the same surname
as yours and has your country in his file as his place of origin, made
a fixed deposit for 36 months, valued at $86,000,000.00 with my bank.
I was his account officer before I rose to the position of Managing
Director. The maturity date for this deposit contract was 27th of
September 2014.Sadly Mr. Wilfred was among the death victims in the
September 2009 earthquake in Indonesia that left over 1,200 people
dead while he was there on business trip.
Since the last quarter of 2010 until today, the management of my bank
has been finding means to reach him so as to ascertain if he will roll
over the Deposit or have the contract sum withdrawn. When I discovered
that this will happen, I have tried to come up a procedure to preserve
this fund and use the proceeds for business.
Some directors here have been trying to find out from me the
information about this account and the owner, but I have kept it
confidential because I know that if they become aware that Mr. Wilfred
is late, they will corner the funds for themselves. Therefore, am
seeking your co-operation to present you as the benefit from his fund
since you have the same surname, my bank headquarters will pay the
funds to you as his next of kin. I have done enough inside bank
arrangement and i only have to put in your details into the
information network in our bank database and your name will be reflect
you as his next of kin.
If you concur with this proposal, I intend for you to retain 60% of
the funds while 40% shall be for me. Kindly forward your response to
me by email: [email protected]
