FROM THE DESK OF BARRISTER FRED ITUNU & ASSOCIATES
Plot 5678, Ahmadu Bello way,
Victoria Island. Lagos - Nigeria
Dear Friend,
I am Barrister Fred Itunu, a Solicitor at law. I am the personal
attorney
to my late client who is a nationality of your country .
He was a specialist Seasoned Contractor with Shell Petroleum Company in
Lagos - Nigeria, who unfortunately died in the plane crash of Union
Transport Africaines Flight Boeing 727 in Cotonou,Benin Republic on the
December 26,2003.
You will read more stories about the crash on visiting this website:
www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/26/benin.crash/
Before his death on the 26th December 2003.
He has a fixed Deposit account with one of the biggest commercial bank
here in Nigeria and no other person knows about this account or
anything
concerning it,the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation
proved to me that his supposed next of kin died along with him in the
crash.
Since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my clients
Extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. After these
Several
unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name over the
Internet,
to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you but I know you
don’t know him, but with your last name been the same, we can get
this
money before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the
bank.
Consequently, Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives
For
over 3 months now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of
kin
of the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at US$10.5
million can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money.
I will obtain all the necessary legal documents on your behave as the
next
of kin to the late deceased that can be used to back up any Claim we
may
make.
All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see this deal
through.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that
will protect you from any breach of the Law and am assuring you that it
is
100% risk free transaction.
If this proposal is acceptable by you, do send your reply on my above
EMAIL ADDRESS: .........
