Dear,

I am writing to inquire if you received the email I sent to you previously
concerning someone from your lineage who died intestate alongside his wife
and only child in a blazing fire that engulfed their home here in my
country.

My name is Mr. Daniel Choy; I am a registered legal practitioner and the
personal attorney to the deceased. I am contacting you because of the
notice I received from the Government of my country in regard to the
contract executed by my deceased client prior to his death. My client
secured a contract of 23million USD from the Government of my Country and
the contract was successfully executed but the balance of 13.8 million USD
is yet to be paid to my client within the time of his sudden death and
this 13.8million USD has been lying unclaimed and recently a notice was
issued to my law firm requesting for my late client appointed kin or any
person from his lineage to come forward for the claim or else the money
will be credited back to the Government treasury in line with the
financial regulation of my country.

I have contacted you to come forward to claim the contract balance sum and
distribute it accordingly within your lineage as required by law.

Thank you and I hope you will get back to me this time.

Regards
Mr. Dan Choy
