Next of Kin Scam E-mails (24)

If you receive an unsolicited e-mail seeking you to be presented as the next of kin or heir of a large fortune from someone you never heard of (especially if that person resides overseas), don't believe it.   This is almost certainly a scam where you will be asked to pay some type of fee before you can claim the money or you will be presented with a phony check and asked to return a share.  Don't be fooled by official looking documents as scammers make a living forging these things.  Also many scammers work in rings and have partners who may pose as lawyers, government officials, bank officials etc.  If you get such an e-mail or letter or you get a letter that is similar to one in our database: you should delete the letter.  NEVER pay any fees of any kind.  You may want to visit other sites to learn more:

FROM: TONY UMEH (Esq) ADDRESS: NCR BUILDING, BROAD STREET, LAGOS NIGERIA

Hello Anticipated Partner,

I got your contact in course of my inquiry to locate relations of my Deceased Client who died with his family in a car crash on 5th August 2005.Please I need your assistance to repatriate the sum of US$28.5M which my Deceased Client left behind in a Finance Company. The finance company in possession of the deposit that contains this fund has been asking me to provide the next of kin.

Since his demise they are threatening to confiscate the deposit as "Unclaimed Deposit". Rather than leaving the fund confiscated, based on the fact that you share the same last name with my Deceased Client I seek your consent and assistance to nominate you as my Deceased Client's Relation under legal process and risk free to repatriate the fund as I have the jurisdiction as the Deceased Personal Attorney to testify the Deceased Relationship with you.

Also I have the documents to complete the transaction. What I require is your willingness to assist me and to treat the transaction as a personal confidential matter until the conclusion. Contact me for further information and commencement of the transaction.

Regards, Tony Umeh (Esq)

To: jallyimpressions@yahoo.comMR. KENNETH PHILIP (Branch Manager) CO-OPERATIVE BANK 62/64 Southampton Row Holborn Greater London WC1B 4ND Holborn Branch. Tel:+44-7024077514

My Dear,

Please kindly read through this letter and get back to me soon. I am Mr. Kennet philip, Branch Manager of co-operative Bank, London. I made up my mind with trust to contact you for an urgent and very confidential business.

On the 7th of July 2002, a foreign fiber optics consultant/contractor, Engineer. Michael Weller made a numbered time (Fixed)Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$2,800,000.00(Two Million eight hundred thousand United states dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, Mr. Michael died from a gastly motor accident with his wife and only daughter.

On further investigation,I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that he did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paper work in my Bank.

This sum of $2,800,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it. At the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will be reverted to the bank reserve account if no body applies to claim this fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foriegner to stand in as the next of kin to late Engineer Michael since you have thesame last name with him so that the fruits of this Man's labour will go in vain. This is simple as long am here to direct and provide you with every information required. There is no risk at all as all the paper work for this transaction will be done by the Attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. We shall employe the service of an Attorney for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favour for the transfer. If you are interested,please reply immediately . Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. We shall be sharing the fund at equal ratio.

All i want from you is honest and trustworthy. Please observe utmost confidentiality,and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in yourcountry. I wait your urgent reply.

Regards. Mr. Kennet philip

Email: law_licit_1900@yahoo.fr From: Attorney Eric Thompson. {Esq.} Phone: +447024057473 Attn: Trusted Deal.

Dear Partner, Good day, Firstly, I apologize for sending you this sensitive information via e-mail instead of a Certified mail/Post-mail. This is due to the urgency and importance of the information. Hence, this letter to you. I humbly crave your indulgence to read this e-mail with all seriousness of purpose devoid of any doubt in your mind because this project is based on Trust, Confidentiality and Sincerity of purpose in order to have an acceptable meeting of the minds. I am a forty five (45) years old established American Lawyer. My client who was Michael Keogh (Now deceased) hereinafter shall be referred to as "My Client."

3years years ago, my client successfully executed a contract for the Federal Government worth $14.3 million dollars. A part payment of $6.million dollars was paid to my client, while the balance of $8.3million Dollars was still unpaid before my client died. However, all my efforts to locate the possible next of kin proved abortive.

Until his sudden demise, He was not married and was 44years old. Now he crux of this E-LETTER is that the Federal Government is fully paying all contractors who have successfully executed their contracts. My client is among those due to be paid in this second quarter payment schedule. As his personal attorney before his sudden death, I have been officially notified and instructed to forward particulars of my client's next of kin so that he/she can be paid the outstanding $8.3Million dollars.

I know he did not leave any valid WILL because he died intestate. This fund will therefore be paid to whosoever I present to his bank [CITIBANK LONDON] as the possible next of kin. In a nutshell, I intend to channel this fund to the account of a clever but reliable person who upon successful payment of the money will earn 50% thereof, while 50% will be for me. Your nationality does not matter as all modalities have been perfected and put in place to pay whoever I present as the next of kin.

This transaction will take about 8 working days only to conclude as soon as you indicate your interest. For prompt action, contact me urgently by email through [law_licit_1900@yahoo.fr] I shall role out the modalities for the actualization of this project as soon as I receive your response. Please, do accord this transaction the confidentiality it deserves.

Best Regards, Attorney Eric Thompson. (Principal Partner) US Attorney @ Law. Esq.

NB: You don't have to be a blood relative of my client to claim this inheritance. Please reply so that I can elucidate on how to proceed. Please reply via my alternative email address: law_licit_1900@yahoo.fr
