  3. subject: Business From James Smith
Dear Friend,
My name is Mr. James Smith, I am a senior banker in a bank here in the United

Kingdom. I am contacting you for a business transfer of a huge sum of money

from a deceased account. Though know that a transaction of this magnitude

will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that every

documents that will bring aboutthe success of this transaction will be

provided by an attorney here in london, and all will be well at the end of

the day. I decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.
The deceased person who died Neal Walker died in air crash along with his

wife on the 31st October 1999 in an Egyptian airline 990 with other

passengers on board was an American Oil consultant/contractor with the

Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation. You can confirm his death from the

website below which was published by BBC WORLD NEWS.
WEBSITE.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/502503.stm
Since his death, none of his next-of-kin are alive to make claims for this

money , because they all died in the same accident himself and his wife (May

their soul rest in peace). We cannot release the fund from his account unless

someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in

our banking guidelines.

Upon this discovery, I now seek your permission to stand as a next of kin to

the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully worked to make you the

beneficiary to the said funds of Twenty million Five Hundred Thousand United

State Dollars ($20.5m) which will be released in your favor as the next of

kin. Because after Nine years the money will be called back to the bank bond

treasury as unclaimed bills and the money shared amongst the directors of the

bank. so it is on this note I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used

as the next of kin/beneficiary to this funds rather than allow the bank

directors to share this money amongst themselves at the end of the year.

It may interest you to know that we have secured from the probate an order

of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries. Please acknowledge

receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business endeavor by

furnishing me with the following information if you are interested.

1. Full names and address,
2. Telephone and fax Number.
3.A scan copy of your international passport or drivers license.

For our personal contact and mutual trust in each other. I shall be

compensating you with 40% of the above amount on final conclusion of this

project for your assistance, the balance 60% shall be for me , because I

intend to retire after the conclusion of this transaction . If this proposal

is acceptable by you, please endeavor to contact me immediately. Do not take

undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you, I await your urgent mail

now on my perivate email (james_smith255@yahoo.com)

Best Regards,
James Smith
