Subject: I need your assistance and co-operation
From the Desk of Dr. Charles Weller
I wish to seek your assistance for the transfer of US$50M 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.
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 this way, you take 40% while i will take 50% then we will
use 10% to offset any expenses we in cured during the process, as this is a
TWO-men 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 acknowledgement 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 in you.
I await your urgent response.
Regards,
Dr.Charles Weller
