Dear Friend,
I am Peter Oke,a Solicitor and an Advocate of the
supreme court of
Nigeria,I
am the Personal Attorney to Mr.Jim Cruz,a consultant with an oil
company here in Nigeria.On the 25th of January 2005,my client and his
wife were involved in an autocrash accident along wushishi-Minna
Express Road.Unfortunately they lost their lives in the event of the
accident, Since then I have made several contacts as to locate any of
his extended relatives, but all proved abortive.hence I decided to
contact you.
I am contacting you to assist in retrieving the
money valued at (US$22.5m)that was left behind by my client with the
Spring Bank of nigeria plc, before it gets confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the bank. Conseqently,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 unsuccesfull in locating
the relatives for over 3 years now, I hereby seek your consent to act
as the next of kin to the deceased, the proceeds of this account valued
at (US$22.5
million dollars)
can be paid to you and then you and I can share the money.I have all
the necessary legal documents that can be used to back up this project.
My
suggestion to you is that, I will like you as a foreigner to stand as
the next of kin/beneficiary to the fund deposited by my late client so
that the proceeds valued at US$22.5 million dollars will be paid to
you.
Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all
matters concerning this issue.Once the funds have been transferred to
your nominated bank account, which you willsend to the bank, we shall
share in the ratio of 50% for you, and 50% for me. I have worked out a
procedure that will ensure success, and as a lawyer, I will ensure that
all our actions are within the confines of the law.
Should you
be interested please,furnish me with your most direct tel and cell
phone numbers for oral conversation after which I will provide you
with more details of this transaction and how to proceed.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Barrister Peter Oke.
