For your deep concern

I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer, and an investment he
placed under our banks management 2 years ago.
The  client, now deceased made a deposit of 16million British pounds. I
was assigned to manage this account and turn over same over various
investments. I followed his instructions and invested his funds in high
yield areas and have been monitoring the investment. At Maturity of the
investment, I made attempts to reach him and get his go ahead to turn over
the investments but got no response.

I made intense but futile efforts to locate him. I consequently passed the
task of locating him to the internal investigations department which soon
confirmed that my client had passed on. A person who suited his
description was declared dead of a heart attack in Cannes, South of
France. The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible
surviving next of kin to come forward to claim his estate. If you are
familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services
usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from
conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin.

In the field of private banking, opening an account with us means no one
will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held under a name;
depositors use numbers and codes to make the accounts anonymous. This bank
even gives the choice to depositors of having their mail sent to them or
held at the bank itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the account
and as I said, rarely do they nominate next of kin. Private banking
clients apart from not nominating next of kin also usually in most cases
leave wills in our care, in this case; our now deceased client died
without leaving a will. We immediately instituted our own investigations
in good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This
investigation has for the past months been unfruitful.

We have scanned every continent and used our private investigation
affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem. It is this
investigation that resulted in my being furnished with your details as a
possible relative of the deceased. My official capacity dictates that I am
the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to
receive the results of the investigation. It is quite clear now that our
client died with no known or identifiable family members. This leaves me
as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation
is in relation to the deposit of the deceased client.
According to normal practice, my bank will by the end of this year
broadcast a request for statements of claim. Failing to receive viable
claims they will most probably revert the deposit to the Government.

I am prepared to put you forward as next of kin and approve same with a
view to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon
receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in the
ratio of 70/30 in my favor.

This will not be too difficult, counting on the fact that I will be on
hand to guarantee the funds are released to you, using my official
position. This can be done with your cooperation in a few working days.
At your request, I will provide further information. It is of paramount
importance that you do not contact me via the bank mailing system or
switchboard telephones about this project as all official lines are
periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line with
our total Quality Management Policy. I will therefore be inclined to feign
ignorance if this happens.

Sincerely,
David  Wilson
