Hi
My name is Jerry Mike the principal treasury officer with one of the prime banks in Cote d'Ivoire. I would need your consent to present you as the next of kin to our late customer who died of a heart attack in 2016. He was a wealthy businessman who deposited a huge amount in our Bank. He died without any registered next of kin as he was long divorced and had no child.
I was his account officer and have in my possession all the documents required to present you as his beneficiary next of kin. I contacted you because you have the same name identity with our late client and can perfectly fit in as next of kin, We can work together to claim this fund. Please listen, this is real and goes on in Banks all over the world without people knowing. Let us utilize this opportunity because it does not come always. A lot of customers open private accounts with different Banks without the knowledge of their families and when they die, such money will be lost to the Bank unless someone comes to claim it. This is how a lot of Bank Directors make so much money silently.
On your confirmation of this message and indicating your interest, I will furnish you with more details. Please endeavor to provide me with the following so that we can discuss in details.
Your full name:
Your contact address:
Occupation;
Your phone number:
Date of Birth:
I urgently hope to get your response as soon as possible.
Yours Sincerely,
Jerry Mike.
