Good day!My name is Dan Othas. I work with one of the leading Banks here in UK.
I would need your consent to present you as the next of kin to our late customer who
died of heart attack in 2009. He was a wealthy business man who deposited a huge
amount in our Bank. He died without any registered next of kin as he was long
divorced and had no child.I was his account officer and have in my possession all the documents required to
present you as his beneficiary next of kin. I contacted you because you have same
name identity with our late client and can perfectly fit in as next of kin, We can
work together to claim this fund. Please listen, this is real and goes on in Banks
all over the world without people knowing. Let us utilize this opportunity because
it does not come always. A lot of customers open private accounts with different
Banks without the knowledge of their families and when they die, such monies will
be lost to the Bank unless someone comes to claim it. This is how a lot of Bank
Directors make so much money silently.On your confirmation of this message and indicating your interest, I will furnish you
with more details. Please endeavor to provide me with your mobile phone numbers,
full name and contact address so that we can discuss in details.I urgently hope to get your response as soon as possible.
Yours Sincerely,
Dan Othas.
