Dear sir,
With warm heart I offer my friendship and greetings and I hope this message meets you in good health. However strange or surprising this contact might seem to you as we have not met personally or had any dealings in the past. I humbly ask that you take due consideration of its importance and the immense benefit it will be to you. After careful consideration, I resolved to contact you for your assistance in this manner.
I am Baibosunov Karybek (Esq), a citizen of Kyrgyzstan but works here in the Federal Republic of Nigeria. I have a client (Confidentially) whose wife and three children were ambushed and killed by the dreaded Terrorist group known as BOKO HARAM in Maiduguri, Bornu State of Northern Nigeria in 2013. My late client was one of the directors of Setraco Nigeria Limited (a construction company).
Since then I have made several inquiries to Embassies to locate any of my client’s extended families and relatives but this has also proved abortive. After several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the internet to locate any member of his family but to no avail hence I decided to contact you. I have contacted you to assist me in repatriating the funds left behind by my late client before they get confiscated ny Nigerian government. The finance house where my late client had a Funds valued at just Four Million American dollars only ($4,000,000.00) had issued me a notice to provide the next-of- kin or have the Fund confiscated within the next thirty official working days.
In view of the above, I honestly seek your consent to present you as the next-of-kin to my late client so that these funds can be paid into your personal or company’s account for investment purposes. If you are in a position to handle this transaction by proving an account where this fund can be remitted or pushed into, we shall share it in the ratio of 50%-50%. All I require is your honesty and co-operation to enable us see this transaction through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you and I from any breach of the law.
Thanks for your understanding. MY ID IS ATTACHED FOR YOUR PERUSAL.
NB: Foreign Nationals are being kidnapped and killed here Nigeria on weekly basis by the dreaded terrorist groups.
Respectfully yours,
Baibosunov Karybek (Esq).
