This is that conversation.
Attention: Sir
I’m Graig Williams an employee of ING BANK branch here in Netherlands. I have urgent and very confidential business proposal for you. I got your contact from the World Trade Centre Online Web directory here in Netherlands. In January 2011, a Consultant/Contractor Made numbered time (fixed deposited) for twelve calendar months valued at (USD$3,500,000 million United States Dollars) in a domiciliary account in my branch.
Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification of account statues to his forwarding address but got no reply, after two months, we sent a reminder of same letter and finally we discovered from his contact employers, a Finland Company based in here in Netherlands that Lewis Andrews Died in car accident. After further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that he did not declare any Next of Kin in all his official documents.
This sum of USD$3,500,000 is still floating in our bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one would come forward to claim it, according to Dutch Law, at the expiration of 7 (six)years; the money will revert to the ownership of the Dutch government if nobody applies to claim these funds. Consequent upon the above, my proposal is that I would like you to stand in as the Next of Kin I will quickly work out the full documentation and change the name to yours and transfer of the funds into your nominated account anywhere. We shall discuss the percentage as soon as I hear from you Thanks Graig Williams
