Good Day
I am Timothy. I have emailed you earlier on without any response from you. On my first email I mentioned about my late client Mr. Williams , whose relatives I cannot get in touch with. But both of you have the same last name so it will be very easy to front you as his official next of kin. I am compelled to do this because I would not want the finance house to push my clients funds into their treasury as unclaimed inheritance. If you are interested you do let me know so that I can give you Comprehensive details on what we are to do.
Sincerely,
Mr. Joseph

Dear Wendy Thompson
Thank you so much for your response to my email, i don't have anything online to show you but i do have a copy of the Last Will of Testament signed by the deceased person and a copy of the Certificate of Deposit of the Funds with the Bank., On my first email I mentioned about my late client Mr. Williams Thompson , whose relatives I cannot get in touch with. But both of you have the same last name so it will be very easy to front you as his official next of kin. I am compelled to do this because I would not want the finance house to push my clients funds into their treasury as unclaimed inheritance.
I am a Private Investment Manager to the late Mr. Williams Thompson, hereinafter referred to as my client' who worked as an Independent Oil Magnate in my country and died in a car crash with his immediate family on the 4th of Oct., 2007. Since the death of my client in Oct., 2007, I have written several letters to the few people I know with intent to locate any of his extended relatives whom shall be claimants/beneficiaries of his abandoned personal estate and all such efforts have been to no avail.
More so, I have received official letters in the last few weeks suggesting a likely proceeding for confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in line with existing laws by the bank in which my client deposited the sum of Thirty (30) Million Dollars.
Hello,
That is very helpful, thank you. Do you perhaps have some literature I could look at, or could you send me some more information about what exactly makes you unique?

Dear Wendy Thompson
My mail to you was written as a matter of last resort because of the circumstances surrounding this claim. Mr Williams Thompson was an oil merchant and he had oil dealings around Europe and Africa. He died in 2007 at 54, along side his wife, Maria, 46, and their only daughter, Katharina, 11. I had contacted you to solicit your honest assistance in re-profiling funds being to my late client. I want you to consider the details so you could understand the fuller reasons I need your co-operation.
Mr Williams lived most of his years here in Johannesburg. I served as his private attorney for the last eight years preceding his death, and I had known the family a little while before then. Mr Williams migrated into Johannesburg a long time ago as an orphan.I never knew his father but I knew him to be the Late Mr Antonio who died in Belgium.I contacted you because after the death of my late client, I was informed by the Bank to search for any member of his extended family (related especially consanguinity), to put up a claim, or who could be so represented as managers or trustees for his deposited funds with them which stands at over $30 Million Dollars due to the fact that he died with his immediate family members.After preliminary efforts of search which came to no avail, We were given an ultimatum at the beginning of the new year to look for some one to come for the claim or have the funds liquidated and made unserviceable in accordance with existing laws because it will be assumed that no member of his family is alive.However, it might interest you to know that, after a thorough investigation in the Bank, I found out that some members of the company are currently planning to divert this fund in their selfish interest and only want to use the excuse that since I am not able to look for some one to make the claim,the money should be made unserviceable and that means reverting the fund to the Government while the company retains a percentage of it.After their plans and professional consideration on my part, I decided to look for some one credible, with the same last name with my late client, to apply for this claim due to the fact that I have at my possession some legal documents which are very important and which might be requested by them and which, can only be provided by my chambers since they have since been with us.
I feel and know that you will be able to make this claim successfully because of your rare last name which is the same as that of my late client's and as a result of this I do not want the Bank to be aware that I contacted you first in order to prevent them from going into much investigations on whom you actually are and that can put the success of this transaction on the line.I want you to be rest assured that this is legal with no risk involved, since all the legal documents that gives you the right to make the claim is available.This is a deal I am offering you and I want you to know that it requires only a mature mind to understand all I am saying and I believe you are mature enough which is the reason I am going further.
As per the cost please note that as soon as the money is transferred to you,we are going to set aside 5% of the total sum for any expenses that will be incurred during the course of this transaction,which means that whatever money you spend upfront, you will first deduct it from the 5% while the remaining 95% will be shared between us accordingly,okay?
I am taking my time to explain all these to you now because I want you to see the reasons why my name should not be mentioned any time you are discussing with the members of the Bank and why this transaction has to be kept really confidential in order for us to be able to achieve our goals neatly.NOTE that if they request to know how you came to know that your family member (Williams) had such an amount of funds with them and who contacted you, which I am not sure they will ask, but in order to be on the safer side, if you are asked, be confident to tell them that the extended family discovered some documents in his archives showing that Mr Williams lodged such funds with them and that is why you have been sent by the paternal family to contact the bank.
Anyway, further deliberations will be held on this as we proceed.I want you to know that I have these documents as well as the Last Will of Testament of Mr Williams to show to you as proof and I will release them to you as soon as I have attained your confidence, I will also provide you with any information you need as we proceed.Please bear in mind that you have to be really sure if you are going ahead or not for I do not want to jeopardize the success of this transaction which means so much to me at the moment. I will wait for your response and please do not forget about the discreet of this transaction.
You can call me on my direct telephone number i will provide you with for further discussion., note that the confirmation i need from you is to accept to pursue the release of the Funds from the Bank to your Account so then i can send you the Documents and Bank details so you can establish contact with the holding Bank. please send me a scanned copy of your ID for proper identification
Awaiting your urgent response

Dear,
Thanks for your response. Let me explain the origin of these fund; During our war campaign in Iraq my team was responsible for a lot of raids in Saddam (Iraqi former president) palaces and while the raiding was going on, we discovered a particular sum of $140 Million dollars packed into military trunk boxes and hidden in Saddam's underground secret chambers.
As a soldier my first instinct was to report to the commanding officer but on a second thought I have sacrificed many years of my life serving and protecting my great country, most of us lost friends and loved ones along the line of duty, as a matter of fact i can't begin to mention my sacrifices and losses but the glory of America is built on our pain & blood, this is why i decided to use that opportunity to make some fortune for myself since the funds belong to an ex tyrant whom we captured and has been executed by the International court of justice.
As the leader of my unit i reported $130 million dollars out of the funds we discovered and used my position to save the remaining $10million dollars in a Security Company for safekeeping with the help of my Military lawyer. As it stands now, I want to bring you in as the Beneficiary of the fund because i can't have any claims on my name. It is very important that you take this deal serious, the deed has been done, I must assure you that you will benefit very well and you will never regret assisting me, but on the other hand you MUST be very careful never to expose this deal. Apart from any carelessness from your side, i have already made a solid plans to ensure that this deal is 100% untraceable.
Your efforts and assistance will be rewarded with 30% of the funds as soon as you receive from the security company and keep for me safe until all eyes are out on me because we are been questioned for these funds before now which you will find out in the website i sent previously.
I know you might be wandering why i did not send to my family, well i need you to know that my Family members are being monitored, and you know the confidentiality of this deal is that they must not know anything about this deal.
Please let me know you are interested and also if i can trust you enough, if yes get back to me with your information so that i can forward to the Security Company to transfer all legal documents to your name, that will proves you the rightful Beneficiary.
Thanks for your cooperation!!
