RE;INHERITANCE

This is a confidential proposition directed to you and I request that it be treated as such. I

must solicit your Confidentiality and assure you that I am contacting you in good faith and

this proposal will be of mutual benefit to us . I am Peter Mantle the personal attorney/sole

executor to a deceased client of my chambers who shares the same surname with you, who

worked as an independent oil magnate in my country, but died in a car crash with his

immediate family in East London on the 12Th of February 2007. My late client was a former

oil well pumper working with Hess Oil Corporation here in the United Kingdom and had Left

behind a deposit of Ten Million Six Hundred Thousand British Pounds Sterling only

(£10.6million) 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 intent to

locate any of his extended relatives whom shall be claimants 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 financial control unit 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 abandoned funds. The bank had planned to invoke their abandoned

property decree 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 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 you the legal right to make this claim

and would make them available to you so that the proceeds of this bank account valued at

£10.6million can be paid to you before it gets confiscated or declared unserviceable to the

bank where this huge amount was deposited. I do sincerely sympathize the death of my

client but think it is unprofitable for his funds to be submitted to the government of this

country or some bank. 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 last client, but after a little

check my instinct tells 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 deal.

Like I said, I require only a solemn confidentiality on this. Please send your telephone and

fax numbers to my confidential email: pman4040@qq.com to enable us discuss further on

this transaction only if this proposal is acceptable by you. Do not take undue advantage of

the trust I have bestowed in you, Thanks for your understanding.

Peter Mantle
