Dear Friend,
I presume this letter will come to you as a surprise, but as thingsunfold,we
will know each other better. I will start by introducingmyself to you.My name is
George Ikoli a solicitor at law. I am writingin respect of a foreigner Mr Martin

Since the demise of my client I personally have watched with keen interest to
see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his
funds of US$28.5m(Twenty Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand United States
Dollar) and all the relevant documents in the bank has no record of any next of
kin. On this note, I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as his next
of kin so I have contacted you to assist in repatriating most especially, the
money left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the bank where the huge deposits were lodged.
Particularly, the Equity Development Bank Plc where the deceased had an account
valued at about Usd28.5 million dollars has issued me a notice to provide the
Next of kin, or have the account confiscated. I seek your consent to present you
as the Next of kin of the deceased since read your profile I know you can assist
me as I need somebody who is trustworthy and willing to assist me get the funds
transfered.Whcih the account which my late client operate is valued at Usd28.5
million dollars can be paid to you, as my clients Next of Kin, and then we can
share the amount on a mutual agreed percentage.
All legal documents to back up your claim as the deceased Next of Kin will be
provided. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal
through. I guarantee that this will be executed under al egitimate arrangement
that will protect you from any breach of the law and you should endeavor to keep
it confidential.
Please get in touch with me at,(george_ikoli22@post.ro) to enable us discuss
further about this transaction.

Barr.George Ikoli.
