above named Finance house. I have decided to contact you on a business transfer that requires 
confidentiality, trust and transparency, where both of us have a lot to benefit, during my 
investigation and auditing in the accounts section, my department came across this money belonging 
to a deceased person, a foreigner who died on May 7, 2008 in an auto crash and happens to share the 
same last name as you.

This Fund has been dormant in his account in the private investment dept without any claim to this 
fund in our custody, either from his family or relation. The said amount is Ј14.6M (Fourteen 
Million Six Hundred Thousand British Pounds Sterling). As it might interest you to know, I got your 
contact through international business inquiry and my search for a trust worthy business partner 
that can handle a business of this magnitude meanwhile all arrangement to put claim to this fund in 
your name as the bona fide next of kin to the deceased, and get the required approval to transfer 
this money to a foreign account, have been put in place.

While the next line of action to conclude this transaction in the next 10 working days, will be 
relayed to you as Soon as you indicate your interest in this transaction. I must also inform you 
that upon the completion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 40% of the total sum as

intend to retire after I conclude this project.
I will be monitoring the whole situation here until you confirm the money in your account. Then, 
immediately, I shall come down to the country of your nominated account for subsequent sharing of 
the Funds according to percentages previously indicated and further investment.
