My dear I am contacting you in regards to a business transfer of a huge sum of money from a
deceased account. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make anyone apprehensive
and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day. I decided to
contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.
PROPOSITION; I discovered an abandant sum of $11.5M(Eleven Million Five Hundred thousand United
states Dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his
entire family. Since his death, none of his next-of-kin or relations has come forward to lay claims
to this money as the heir. I cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for
claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines. Upon
this discovery, I now seek your permission to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased as
all documentations will be carefully worked out by me for the funds $11.5M(Eleven Million Five
Hundred thousand United states Dollars) to be released in your favour as the beneficiary's next of
kin.It may interest you to note that I have secured from the probate an order of madamus to locate
any of deceased beneficiaries.
Please acknowledge receipt of this message in acceptance of my mutual business endeavour by
furnishing me with the following;
1. Your Full Names and Address.
2. Direct Telephone and Fax numbers.
These requirements will enable me file a letter of claim to the appropriate departments for
necessary approvals in your favour before the transfer can be made. I shall be compensating you
with $4.6 Million Dollars on final conclusion of this project, while the rest $6.9Million shall be
for me. Your share stays with you while the rest shall be for me for investment purposes in your
country.
If this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in
you, I await your urgent email.Please reply in this my alternative email address only

Your;s faithfully,
