Subject: Can i stand you to claim this fund for investment projects


Hello,

Please kindly accept my apology for sending unsolicited mail to you. I
believe you are a highly respected personality, considering the fact
that I sourced your profile from a human resource profile database on
your Country Business Directory.

Well, I am Barrister Mr.Kelly Austin Esq, a Solicitor and the Personal
Attorney to my Late client M.s.Nelda Parker Pace, a citizen of your
Country, who used to work as the Director of Real Estate company in
Benin Republic.

On the 1st of Oct 2017, my client, a single mother of two Children
were involved in a car accident along express-high way. Unfortunately,
they all lost their lives. Since then I have made several inquiries to
your Embassy to locate any of my client’s extended relatives this has
also proved unsuccessful and in total vain.

After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his
relatives over the Internet but to no avail, hence i have contacted
you to assist in repatriating her money and property left behind by my
deceased client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable
by the Bank here. These huge deposits were lodged particularly with a
Bank in Benin Republic (Name withheld for security reasons), where the
Deceased had an account valued at Twelve Million Five Hundred Thousand
United States Dollars ($12.5 million dollars).

The Bank has issued me a final notice to provide the next of
Inheritance or have the account confiscated. Since I have been
unsuccessful in Locating the relatives for over three years, I seek
your consent to present you as the next of kin of my deceased client
since she is from your Country so the proceeds of this account valued
at $12.5 million dollars can be transferred to you and then our
sharing ratio should be 50% for you and 50% for me. I have all the
necessary legal documents that can be used to back up our claim with
the Bank.

All I require is your honest and sincere co-operation to enable us see
this Deal through and I guarantee 100% that this will be executed
under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach
of the law and to achieve this i will need the following information
from you:

Full Name and Address:………………………………………..

Telephone Or
Mobile:…………………………………………….

I wait for your immediate reply as soon as possible if you are willing
and interested to assist me claim this fund for our sharing and
investment projects in your Country.

Best Regards
Barrister.Kelly Austin Esq
