Compliment, I’m Tony Thiethoaly, a fund manager with a wealth
management firm which is situated in Monaco, French Riviera. A
deceased client of mine who was the Former CEO of a United Kingdom
based catering giant Compass Group Plc, Mr. Richard Cousins who died
in a chartered “sightseeing” seaplane crash north of Sydney on
31st December, 2017 along with his two sons, Edward Cousins 23 and
William Cousins 25, his 48-year-old fiancee and her 11-year-old
daughter. Here is more information on his death with the accident
report conclusion for your perusal.

I decided to contact you purely on the personal conviction of trust
and confidence to assist in distributing the funds left behind by my
client. The deceased had a deposit (£5.2 million) which I helped him
lodge in one of the leading banks in London in February, 2015 shortly
before his death. His attorney and I have been issued a notice by his
Bank to provide his next of kin or beneficiary, otherwise the account
would be CONFISCATED since nobody has come forward to lay claims on
the money since his death. Our search for his relative has not been
successful either. My proposition to you is to seek your consent to
present you as a relative/next-of-kin and beneficiary of my client, so
that the proceeds of this account could be paid to you and we can
share the amount on a mutually agreed term. My offer to you is real
and it will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you from any breach of the law. I must use this opportunity to
implore you to exercise the utmost indulgence to keep this matter
strictly confidential, whatever your decision, while I await your
prompt response. If this business proposition offends your moral
values, do accept my apology.
Best Regards,
Tony Thiethoaly.
