Next of Kin Scam

DETAILS
This is business is a confidential one and I request that it be treated as such. It is specifically directed to you and I must solicit
your Confidentiality on it. I assure you that I am contacting you in good faith and this proposal will be of mutual benefit to us.
I am Anderson Lewis a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney/executor to a deceased client of my chambers who shares a
similar surname with you, who was an independent oil magnate in my country, but died in a car crash with his family on the
4th of January 2007. The accident occurred in East London.

My late client, a former Reservoir Engineer with Hess Oil Corporation here in the United Kingdom and had Left behind a
deposit of Eleven Million Four Hundred Thousand British Pounds Sterling only (Â£11.4million) with a bank. After the death of
my client, the Bank contacted me, as his attorney to provide his Next of kin who should inherit his fortune; this according to
them is their policy in sure circumstances.

Since the death of my client, I have written several letters to the embassy with the 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. I had to
inform the Bank about my fruitless effort in locating my late client close relative or His next of kin.

The Board of directors of the Bank just adopted a resolution and I was mandated to provide his next of kin for the payment of
this money within the next 15 official working days or forfeit the money as an abandoned funds. The Bank had planned to
invoke the abandoned property Act of the Bank to confiscate the funds after the expiration of the period given me. Also I have
received official letters in the last two days suggesting a likely proceeding for confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in
line with existing laws of the institution.

Well I have reasons very professional and I can use a legal means to present a next of kin of my deceased client. This is legally
possible and would be done in accordance with the laws of the land. On this note I decided to search for a credible person and
finding that you bear a similar last name, I was urged to contact you, that I may, with your consent, present you to the
\"Trustee\" as my late client\'s family member, so as to enable you put up a claim to the bank in that capacity as a next of kin of
my client.

I find this possible for the fuller reasons that you are of the same nationality and you bear a similar last name with my late
client making it a lot easier for you to put up a claim in that capacity. I have all vital documents that would confer on you the
legal right to make this claim and would make them available to you so that the proceeds from this bank account valued at
Â£11.4 million can be paid to you before it gets confiscated or declared unserviceable to the bank where this huge amount is
lodged.

I do sincerely sympathize on the death of my client but think it is unprofitable for his funds to be submitted to the government
of this country or some financial institution. My aim is to retrieve these funds and let it be claimed by the deceased family
Lineage, etc. for this I seek your assistance since I have been unable to locate the relatives for the past 7 years now

I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you have the same last name giving you the
advantage, so that the proceeds of this account can be paid to you and then both of us can share the money, 60% to me and
40% to you. I know there might be other persons out there with the same surname as my late client, but after a little check my
instinct told me to contact you. Can I trust you on this? I shall assemble all the necessary documents that will be used to back
up your claim.

I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. I will
not fail to bring to your notice that this proposal is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any fears as the required
arrangements have been made for the completion of this transfer.

Like I said, I require only a solemn confidentiality on this and if this proposal is acceptable to you, send your telephone and
fax numbers to my private email: anderson_lewis@qq.com to enable us discuss further on this transaction and do not
take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you. Thanks for your understanding.
Regards Anderson Lewis
