HE WAS A FISHERMAN AS WELL AS A ONE TIME SECRET AGENT IN LIFTING OIL TO OVERSEAS FOR OUR FORMER MINISTERS. IN THE MONTH OF OCTOBER, 2000. MY CLIENT DIED WITH HIS WIFE AND THEIR ONLY DAUGHTER WHEN THEIR SHIP CAPSIZED IN HIGH SEA. But my client made a fixed dopsit valued at (USD$5.9M) and upon the maturity this bank started contacting him but no response. Conseqently, the bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the account confiscated after four years, as the law of this land says. Since then I have made several enquiries to your Embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful. Since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for over two years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you are from the same country and also bears the same surname, so that the proceeds of this account valued at $5.9m can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money. I have arranged all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make waiting for your permission to submit them to the bank on your behalf for the approval of the payment.
