Dear Friend,
This proposal will come to you as a surprise, but I am inspired to
send you this email following the huge fund transfer opportunity that
will be of mutual benefit to the two of us.
My name is Steve Gibson and I am a financial consultant and
property manager working in the Middle East/Asia and Africa, I am
reaching out to you in respect of my late client’s fund of £12.7M
pounds sterling deposited with a bank for safe keeping which is about
to be confiscated by the Government after many years unclaimed.I
decided to reach you after several trials to locate any of his
surviving family members over a long period of time and because you
bear a similar last name with him,I have made several inquiries to
several Embassies to locate any of my client’s extended relatives,
this has also proved unsuccessful. Consequently, The bank issued me a
notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated
within the next ten official working days. Since I have been
unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over several years now. I
seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased so
that the proceeds of this account can be repatriated successfully as
his wife who happens to be the next of kin died two years ago. All I
require is your honest cooperation to enable us to see this deal
through and also forward the following to me:
Full name:
Age:
Marital status:
Postal address:
Job:
phone number:
Nationality:
You will be entitled to 50 %; 40 % for me and 10 % to defray all
cost.I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Yours Sincerely,
Steve Gibson.
