Subject: ATTENTION NEEDED

DEAR FRIEND,

I am Mr. Robert Marc, a portfolio management consultant based in
Brussels, Belgium. I got your contact information from your country’s
public records while searching for a last name similar to my late
client, a business magnate by name Engr. Delbert «Lastname», who
lived and worked in the Oil & Gas sector as a petroleum chemical
engineer here in Belgium for over three (3) decades prior to his
death. He died of a STEMI (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction)
a year after the demise of his wife and two children in an impacted
Collision. Do not be amazed by this letter. I am contacting you based
on the trust and confidentiality that will be attached to this
transaction. I decided to contact you after a series of unsuccessful
attempts to locate any of his extended family members.
 
Prior to further explanation, please accept my apology for this
unsolicited mail. I am conscious of the fact that this is certainly
not a predictable way of approaching and fostering a relationship of
trust. But because of the circumstances and urgency surrounding this
issue, I got to this point. Before the misfortune; He had an insured
fixed monetary deposit valued at ?8,900,000.00 (Eight Million, Nine
Hundred Thousand Euros Only) with a financial institution for 8years
according to the European Banking Authority (EBA) Articles 16(1) and
26(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 (EBA Regulation). The holding
financial institution has mandated me to present a member of his
family (heir/inheritor) to make claims as the financial institution
code stipulates that “insured fixed monetary deposit ” not claimed
must be turned over to the Euro Clearing House (ECH) after Ten (10)
years as unclaimed asset and made unserviceable in accordance with
existing laws.

Therefore, I ask for your consent to be in partnership with me for
the claim of this insured fixed monetary deposited benefit. The
proceeds will be processed in your name and on your behalf. I know you
may not be anyway related to my deceased client, but for the fact that
you share the same last name with the deceased. I can guarantee that
if you give me your consent and follow my instructions, the deposited
benefit will be released to you. Mind you that this transaction is
risk free; there is no iota of risk connected to this project, as I
have worked out all modalities to complete the transaction
effectively. Once the fund is released to you, the total money will be
split on a 50/50 (percent) basis as our benefit.
                    
All legal documents to back up the claim as my late client’s
beneficiary will be secured and forwarded to you as we proceed. All I
require is your honest cooperation to enable us to see this
transaction through. This will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you and I from any breach of the law.
Please be kind to get back to me by email if you are willing to
collaborate so that we can start with the process of claim as soon as
possible. Please understand that we do not need to make undue
publicity as this can hamper the process taking into cognizance that
we are not quite sure if you’re really related. Discretion must be
maintained. If this business proposition offends your moral values, do
accept my apology.

OTHERWISE PLEASE CONTACT ME AT ONCE TO INDICATE YOUR INTEREST VIA
REPLY EMAIL.

Kind regards,
Robert Marc,
