Greetings
Please forgive me for contacting you without your consent, I am
Barrister Edwin
Pedro . I have a client who died some years ago . His death was due to
the news of Ghana Airlines Flight 370 (MH370/MAS370) while flying from
Accra Ghana International Airport, Ghana, to Beijing Capital International
Airport in Beijing, China, in which all I have tried everything humanly
possible to locate his relatives or family but all efforts failed,
I contacted you to assist in getting the funds left behind by my client
before it is confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this
deposit valued at US$ 2 million United States Dollars and some precious
stone 17 KG gold that he kept . The bank has issued me a notice to contact
the next of kin, or the account will be confiscated.
My proposition to you is to seek your consent to present you as the
next-of-kin and beneficiary of my late client, since both of you have the
same last name, so that the proceeds of this account can be paid to you
thereafter we can share the amount on a mutually agreed-upon percentage of
50% to me and 40% to your kind self and 10% to the charity. All legal
documents to back up your claim as my late client's next-of-kin will be
provided. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this
transaction through.
Thank you, I am waiting for your valued response for more details and
classification
Best Regards
Barrister Edwin Pedro
