Subject: Deatailed clarification.

It was indeed a great pleasure hearing back from you and I believed that God has a purpose making us to know each other through this medium. Before I contacted you, I put this project into serious prayers and I know that our working together in respect of this project is a divine connection which I duly respect. I will now tell you more about this matter, but before I do that let me tell you a little about myself.

My name is Harrison Jacob; I am a lawyer by profession from republic of Togo, West Africa. I am 48 years old, married and blessed with three children, one boy and two girls. I know that you will be very surprised after reading my previous message considering the fact that you do not know me in person, but do not be worried because our meeting will be a thing of joy at the end.

As it might interest you to know, I came across you while searching for my late foreign client relatives (Young’s family). I was the personal attorney tolate Engineer. R. B. Young, a nationality of your country who died in an automobile accident in my country with his wife and his only daughter, he was consultant with Shell International Petroleum in the Republic of Togo.

On April 21, 2003, my client and his family were involved in a car accident while returning from cultural festival held in the nearby town and everyone in the vehicle unfortunately lost their life. Since I got the information about his tragic death, I have been expecting his relative to contact me for the unclaimed of his funds valued at $9.6 Million USD with the bank, because the bank cannot release the funds unless somebody officially apply for it as indicated in the banking guidelines. For your information, before the untimely death of my client he made his (Last Will and Testament) and according to the Will, all his assets was willed to the only daughter Elena, who unfortunately died with her parents in the automobile accident, leaving nobody behind for the claim of the funds with the bank.

According to the discussion I had with my late client when he was alive, he told me that he was born in USA in 1951. He also had his education and first carrier in Petroleum Engineering in USA before relocating to South Africa, and finally in Togo where I came in contact with him. Ever since his death I have made several enquiries to locate any of his extended relatives but all my efforts proved abortive as there is no heir to the fund. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his last name on the Internet, hence I came across two people with the same surname, but I decided to contact only you first which I need your final statement or opinion before I decide on what to do.

Note: In the banking law, when such deposit (abandoned fund) remains unclaimed for a specified number of years known as the dormancy period, the bank will transfer custody to an unclaimed property trust government account in a legal process known as escheat. This occurs when the deceased person has no Last Will and Testament, no relatives, and no survivors to inherit the estates. You must understand that in the banking industry, chances or opportunities like these are common but not heard. People put their money in banks and some of these accounts are either coded or confidentially operated, therefore, when such people dies what do you think that happens to these fund when nobody comes for their claims? Well, this is one of the numerous avenues good free income is made within and amongst the bankers. Normally when something like this happens in bank, it is been reported to the management and the management can only wait for the Next of Kin or the Relatives to show up without publishing it in the media or making it public or to the embassy, because false claimants must definitely show up. Therefore, it is not published and the bank can only inform the deceased attorney as the case may be, and they only waits for the deceased attorney to provide the HEIR to the fund, as the availability of such funds are expected to be in the late "customer's WILL" which would be the only source of knowledge of it by anybody who is entitled to such Estate. So the Bank gives some years for this and if no claimant comes forward then the bank authority sends the money to the trust government account as an unclaimed estate.

I know that you will be wondering why I waited this long before contacting you. For the past Nine years I have been monitoring this case to know if anybody will come for the claim of the fund with the bank, but unfortunately nobody showed up, and my private investigation confirmed to me that the deceased have not known relative as there is no heir to the fund. I kept this information to myself as to have enough time to investigate this case properly and decide on what to do. After due consideration, I concluded to find a trustworthy foreigner with the same surname to receive the money as the relative to the deceased, because I cannot fold my arms and let the money go to our corrupt government because at the end they will use the money for politics. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the real relatives, I now seek your consent to present your particulars to the bank as the next of kin to my deceased client, so that the $9.6 Million dollars with the bank will be released to you since both of you are sharing the same surname. Of course I know that you might not be related to the deceased, but do not worry, this is field and I assure you that we will execute this operation successfully.

Note that your role will be simple, you will be required to stand as the claimant to this fund while I will be furnishing you with all the necessary information and documents which the bank will need to release the fund to you. As I earlier informed you, I am the personal attorney to the deceased and with my aide the fund will be released to you without any problem, because I have the final say to this matter and whatever I decide, the bank will have no objection. Note that it is my duty to present the successor to the bank and whosoever I present to the bank as the relative of my late client with the same surname will be approved, as long as the surnames are the same, notwithstanding if it is from birth or marriage, which means you are legally qualified to be presented to the bank as the relative to the deceased. Be informed also, that I am in perfect possessions of all the relevant information and documents that will perfect the successful execution of this project.

Therefore, be assured that this project is 100% risk free and will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you and me from any breach of the law both here and over there in your country.

Note that the holding bank will not ask you questions based on the family lineage of the deceased; rather they will approve the funds on the basis of documented evidence and banking information of the deceased which I will supply to you from my office. I have concluded to work with you on this project and I do hope that we will work together with sincerity and total commitment to achieve this project, by so doing the fund will be approved and transferred into your bank account for our mutual benefit.

Upon receipt of your next mail indicating your willingness to work with me, I will immediately register your name with the bank as the successor with a letter of attestation to back you up for this claim.

At the successful conclusion of this transaction we will donate 20% of the total amount to the less privileged or any charitable organization in your country as gratification. The remaining 80% of the fund we will share equally 50/50, that is 50% for you and 50% for me.

Note that I am involved to send aids and donations to charitable institutions and organizations in West-Africa, specially to help build or maintain churches or houses of worship, to uplift the down-trodden and less-privileged individuals as I have passion for persons who cannot help themselves due to physical disability or financial predicament, and to fund the upkeep of widows, widowers, orphans, destitute, etc in west Africa. My dear, I also expect you to do the same when we successfully finalize this project, because you will receive lots of blessings when you do humanitarian work.

You can always reach me on my private number: +228 90574440 anytime for more discussion regarding this project.

I look forward for your positive response.

Sincerely,
Barr. Harrison Jacob.
