Subject: CONFIDENTIAL PROPOSAL
This is a personal email directed to you and I request that it should be treated as such. I am Jessica Joseph, a solicitor at law based in United kingdom.
I am the personal attorney/sole executor to ‘my client’ who worked as an independent oil magnate in my country and who died in a car crash with his immediate family on the 5th of Nov 2019. Since the death of my client in Nov, 2019 I have written several letters to the embassy with intent to locate any of his extended relatives whom shall be claimants/beneficiary of his abandoned personal estate and all such efforts have been to no avail. More so, I have received official letters in the last few weeks suggesting a likely proceeding for confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in line with existing laws by the bank in which my client deposited the sum of £3.5 million pounds.The board of directors of the company now adopted a resolution and I was mandated to provide his next of kin for the payment of this money within the next 15 official working days or forfeit the money as an abandoned fund. The company had planned to invoke the abandoned property Decree of 1996 to confiscate the funds after the expiration of the period given to me but after an investigation in the finance company, I found out that some members of the company wants to divert this fund into their private accounts for their own selfish interest and only want, to use the excuse that since I am not able to look for some one to make the claim, the money should be made unserviceable and that means submitting the fund to the government of this country and some to the company management which is not their main intentions.
By virtue of my closeness to the deceased and his immediate family, I am very much aware of my client’s financial standing. I do sincerely sympathize the death of my client, but had thought it unprofitable for his funds to be submitted to the federal government of this country and the finance company where it is lodged. I have reasoned very professionally and I feel it will be legally proper to present you as the next of kin of my deceased client which is legally possible and would be done in accordance with the laws of the land. On this note I decided to search for a credible person and finding that you bear a similar last name, I was urged to contact you, that I may, with your consent, present you to the “trustee” bank as my late client’s surviving family member so as to enable you put up a claim to the bank in that capacity as a next of kin of my client, so that the proceeds of This Bank Account valued at one Million five Hundred Thousand dollars only (£3.5 million pounds ) can be paid to you, before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable to the bank where this huge deposit is lodged. Note that this is legal and 100% risk free. I find this possible for the main reason that you bear a similar last name with my client making it a lot easier for you to put up a claim in that capacity. Therefore, to facilitate the immediate reprofiling of this funds. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this proposal is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any fears as the required arrangements have been made for the completion of this transfer. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
I require only a solemn confidentiality on this. Please let me have your opinion as soon as possible if this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you, I await your urgent response.
Jessica Joseph.
