And for your perusal you can view this website http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9708/06/guam.passenger.list Since the demise of this customer, I personally has 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$20.5M (Twenty Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) which has been with our branch for a very long time. On this note, I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the Next of Kin as no one has come up as his next of kin.

For your assistant I am willing give you 20% of the total amount. Upon the receipt of your response, I will send you by fax or e-mail the letter of application for the release of the funds which you will fill, sign and send back to our office to enable us start this processing of this claim. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is hitch free and that you should not entertain any fear as all modalities for the smooth and easy transfer of this fund has been finalized, this transaction will be completed within seven banking days of receiving your response, after you apply to the National Treasury as a relation to the deceased.
