I am aware this is an unconventional approach to relaying a
classified message like this but the urgency necessitated my
contacting you via this medium. I do honestly apologize if it
didn't meet up with your professional standards.

This memo is in reference to an account holder (Name Withheld)
who bears same surname as you do and the status of his investment
deposits at Standard Chartered Bank, Gambia. This Investor died
and has no successor in title over his fund with the bank
amounting to over USD$16,000,000.

Since his death over five years ago, the past government of
Gambia has made several attempts to seat on the money due to the
fact that i was very unsuccessful in location any of his extended
family members or relatives.

The new president of Gambia having shown transparency has
directed all bank to unfreezing all funds held by his
predecessor. In view of this therefore, the Standard Chartered
Bank, Gambia has issued a directive to me to appoint a successor
over this large invest deposit.

The essence of this communication therefore is to acquaint you on
the status of the huge fund and at the same time request that you
provide us information/comments on any or all of the three points
raise below towards nominating you to inherit the fund left
behind by this client.

1-Are you aware of any relative/relation born on the 22nd of
February 1951, who bears same surname with you, whose last known
contact address was Accra, Ghana?

2-Are you aware of any investment of considerable value made by
such a person at the Standard Chartered Bank, Gambia?

3-Can you confirm your willingness to accept this inheritance if
you are legally and legitimately appointed.

It is pertinent that you inform us ASAP whether or not you are
familiar with this personality or and your interest towards the
issues raised above.

I am constrained from providing you with more detailed
information at this point. More detailed information will be
given upon receipt of your response.

Your faithful,

Mr. Heimes Ben Ottor
