---------- Forwarded Message ---------- FROM: BARRISTER JOHNSON KUKU LEGAL PRACTITIONERS & SOLICITORS, RUE 15, BODE JOHNSON LOME, TOGO. WEST AFRICA. JULY 20, 2006
Dear Corbin, Re: Regarding Late Mr. Gene Bill Corbin
I am Barrister Johnson Kuku, a barrister & solicitor at law. I was the Personal attorney to Mr. Gene Bill Corbin, a national of your country, who used to own an oil servicing company in Lome Togo.
Herein after shall be referred to as my client. On the 31st of October, 2002,my client, his wife and their three Children were involved in a car accident along Lome- Cotonou express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. I know that my client had no living kin but I went ahead and made several inquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives but this has proved unsuccessful.I only did so to be double sure of this fact.
I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged, particularly the National Bank for Industries Lome Togo where the deceased had an account valued at about $11.2 million dollars has issued me a notice that in the event that no next of kin comes up for the claim, the account will be confiscated after four years if not claimed.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over years 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 11.2million dollars can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money.50% shall be for me and 40% for you while 10% is ear marked for expenses that will be incurred during the process of Transfer of the fund.
I have all necessary legal documents 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. Please get in touch with me by my e-mail to enable us discuss further.You may also send your phone number so that I can call you.I look forward to your urgent response.
Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
