Subject: RELIABLE BUSINESS CONSULTATION
From the Desk of:
Mr. James Smith Odia
I wish to seek your assistance for the transfer of US$40M depository made by a foreign investor for an investment programmed that has remained dormant for years now. I discovered that the account holder died without making a WILL on the depository, and upon my further curious investigation, the deceased was a member of a government agency where huge amounts were reportedly missing.
This money cannot be approved to a local bank account holder, but can only be approved to a foreigner. If you will stand as next of kin to the fund, it will be shared 50%/50%, as this is a TWO-MAN business deal transaction. I shall provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. I need your assistance and co-operation to this reality as I have done my Home-work and fine tune the best way to create you as the beneficiary of the fund. My position as the branch manager of the bank will be used to advance this deal.
I will like you to provide immediately your full Names and Address, Date of Birth, Occupation, Tel & Fax Numbers so that an Attorney will be able to prepare the necessary documents and affidavit which will put you in place as the next of kin. The Attorney will draft and carry out the notarization of the WILL and also obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor for the claim.
I will appreciate your early reply for commencement of business. Contact me for acknowledgment by E-mail and whereby you are not interested; please indicate in your reply so that I can seek for the assistance of someone else.
If this proposal is acceptable by you, I expect that you will not take undue advantage of the trust I will bestow upon you. I await your urgent response. Do reply me thru this e-mail [email protected]
I await your urgent response.
Thanks with great regards.
Mr. James Smith Odia
