Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Michael Cole, the Auditor General, Imperial Finance House Limited,
London United-Kingdom . In the course of my auditing, I discovered a
floating fund in an account, which was opened in 1990 belonging to a dead
foreigner who died in 1999. Every effort made to track any member of his
family or next of kin has since failed; hence I got in contact with you to
stand as his next of kin since you bear the same last name with him. He died
leaving no heir or a will.
My intention is to transfer this sum of US$15.5Million Dollars in the
aforementioned account to a safe account overseas. I am therefore proposing
that you quietly partner with me and provide an account or set up a new one
that will serve the purpose of receiving this fund.
For your assistance in this venture, I am ready to part with a good
percentage of the entire funds.
After going through the deceased person's records and files, I discovered
that:
(1) No one has operated this account since 1999
(2) He died without an heir or WILL; hence the money has been floating.
(3) No other person knows about this account and there was no known
beneficiary.
If I do not remit this money urgently, it would be forfeited and
subsequently converted to company's funds, which will benefit only the
directors of my firm. This money can be approved to you legally as with all
the necessary; documentary approvals in your name. However, you would be
required to show some proof of claim, which I will provide you with and also
guide you on how to make your applications.
Please reply so that I can send you detailed information on the modalities
of my proposition. I completely trust you to keep this proposition
absolutely confidential, if you are interested to work with me kindly
forward below information:
Your First and Last Names:
Telephone and fax numbers
Occupation:
Your Age:
Your Nationality:
Please send the above information so I can reach you easily. I look forward
to your prompt response.
Best Regards,
Mr. Michael Cole
