Hello dear

I hope this message will reach you in good time, however I duly apologize for infringing on your privacy.

I am BARRISTER PAUL GAITIE a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney to a national of your country, who used to work with Shell - development company in TOGO. Here in after shall be referred to as my client.

On the 21st of April 2015, my client, his wife and their three children were involved in a car accident along cinkasse highway. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives.

After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.

I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged. Particularly, the bank where the deceased had an account valued at about (US$3.7 Million Dollars) has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated within the next twenty-one official working days.

Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 2 years now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you have the same last name so that the proceeds of this account valued at( US$3.7 Million Dollars ) can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money. 60% to me and 40% to you I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through.

I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me by my email and send to me your telephone and fax numbers to enable us discuss further about this transaction.

Best Regards,

Hello,

Thanks for your response and I am glad to further inform you the
details, all about the claim so that you can read and understand all
that is needed and required from you. My client with his wife and
their only daughter died in a car accident, while arriving from a
holiday in one of the exclusive resorts on the out skirt of a town.

All occupants unfortunately lost their lives. I have made several
inquiries to locate any of my late clients extended relatives but was
unsuccessful. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives
of my client, I am contacting you to assist me in claiming the sum of
US $3.7 million which my late client deposited with a bank here in
Lome-Togo,since you both have the same last name.

The Bank have informed me to provide my late client's new
beneficiary next of kin/relation or else they will have the deposited
funds confiscated if I fail to provide any.

It is standard practice that after the expiration of a specified
period, the said fund will be automatically confiscated and transfer
to the Bank treasury account as unclaimed bill if there is nobody to
file in claims as the next of kin/relation to the deceased and the
account will be closed.

Based on my above explanation, my intention to contact you is to
present you to the bank here in our country where this fund is
deposited as the living relation to my late client (the deceased),
That means you will stand as the only relation/next of kin to my
deceased client and put claim over the fund by completion and
submission of a claim application form to the bank.

Moreover, you might not necessarily be the living relation, but
following the law of our country, in a situation like this, a person
with the same last name and from the same country is authorized to
stand for the claim. This law is based on the traditional inheritance
system obtainable in our country and also the extended family system
where it is believed that everybody with the same last name coming
from the same location are related. Secondly, as legal adviser to my
late client (the deceased), whosoever that I present to the bank as
the relation to my late client is unquestionable and will be accepted
by the bank here in our country where this fund is been deposited.

Note here that every documents on this claim will be in your name
which will legalize your position as the only living relation/next of
kin to my deceased client.

I needed your cooperation in standing as the only living relation
and put claim over the release of that fund to you by completion and
submission of an application form to the bank here in our country
where this fund is deposited. Therefore, I will need the following
information from you so that I can go and submit it to the bank here
on your behalf so that you can officially and legally be authorized to
stand as the next of kin.

The information needed from you are :

Your names.........
Address..........
Telephone and whatsapp numbers...........
Your age.............
Your Marital statue.........
Occupations.......................
Your nationality..........

I will officially register your name as the surviving next of kin
to my deceased client once I receive your response to this email with
the information stated above. It is my plan that once this fund is
successfully transferred into your account, we will share the fund
equally 60/40 between us.

Upon your kind advice will i invest my own share of the fund on a
lucrative business in your country, that will be profitable that will
not have much governmental impose taxation on the principal invested
capital and you will be responsible in managing of the said
venture/business on my behalf.

Looking forward to hear from you in due time.Regards,,
