Dear Sir/Madam,
Greetings to you, with warm heart I offer my friendship, and
greetings, and I hope this message meets you in good time. However
strange or surprising this contact might seem to you as we have not
met personally or had any dealings in the past, I humbly ask that you
take due consideration of its importance and the immense benefit it
will be to You. After careful consideration, I resolved to contact
your assistance in this manner. I duly apologize for your most needed
infringing on your privacy.
I am Barrister Douglas Rowden; I have a client who bears the Same name
with you, his wife and their three children were involved in a car
accident and all occupants in the vehicle unfortunately lost their
lives. Since then I have made several inquiries to locate any of my
Late client's extended family and relatives, this has also proved
unsuccessful. After several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace
his relatives over the internet, but to no avail, hence I decided to
contact you.
I contacted you to assist me in repatriating the money left behind by
my late client before they got confiscated or declared not serviceable
by the Finance House where these huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly, the Bank where the deceased Fund is have issued me a
notification to provide the next-of- kin or have the Fund confiscated.
I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased
so that the proceeds valued Sixty Million United States Dollars only
($60,000,000.00), can be paid to you and then you and I can share the
money through investment. I will work out all the necessary legal
documents that can be used to back up this claim, I guarantee that
this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect
you from any breach of the law. All I require is your honest
co-operation to enable us see this transaction through.
To enable the process go seamless, please provide the below information.
(1) Full Names
(2) Present Residential Address:
(3) Present Phone, Fax and Mobile#:
(4) Present Profession, Age and Marital Status:
I wait to hear from you ASAP.
Yours Sincerely,
Barrister Douglas Rowden
