Dear

My name is Antonio Carvalho. I am an estate attorney residing in Lome Togo. For some time now, I have been frantically searching for relatives of Late Engr. Andrew. The reason why I contacted you, was that a name similar to yours was mentioned in a codicil left behind by the late client.

He left a cash legacy of USD$7,200,000.00 with a leading commercial Bank. Due to confidentiality reasons, I cannot divulge the data of my client at this time until I get your consent and interest to be part of the transaction.

I have the same fears of betrayal like you having met each other through one of the most abused means of communication being the Internet that has repeated history of abuses over the years. To allay each party’s fears of the unknown, I will suggest where we draft a legally enforceable mechanism to protect each other’s right and investment in the transaction. As far as i am concerned, the transaction is safe, legitimate and can be verified. At no point are you being used to launder ill gotten money or being used as a front for any clandestine association in whatever guise.

It's been 3 years and 6 months since my client passed away. The statutory period within which we must nominate any relative of the deceased to act as administrator to the estate will expire in 4 four months from now. Once the said statutory period elapses, only the state / government will be able to nominate someone to act in that capacity and this process is riddled with corruption. Eventually, corrupt government officials will put their cronies in the position to act as administrators to the deceased estate to claim the money and share it for this personal use.

I will be very honest with now and always. I do not want to allow the state to claim the above mentioned fund. I contacted you in the best interest of helping each other and on the strength of my conviction to successfully nominate you as legal administrator to the deceased estate before the probate registry as a relative given that you share the same surname with him even though both of you are not biologically related. The conditions being that we will dedicate 20% of the fund to charity and then share the balance 80% for our personal use.

Take Note- You are not required to come to Lome Togo once we agree to pursue this together unless you choose otherwise. I have made all arrangements to enable us to receive these funds within two weeks. It’s easy considering the fact that it’s the same last name. I will send a draft of self-explanatory MOU to binding us together in partnership once we agree as follows;

1. Total amount involved is (USD$7,200.000.00)
2. 40% will go to you as gratification for your participation.
3. 20% will be used to acquire and build an orphanage in memory of the deceased.
4. 40% will be for me.

I await your reply and acceptance. I expect a feedback from you with the below personal data:

1. Your Full Name.
2. Telephone/ Mobile Number.
3. Profession.
4. Date and Place of birth.
5. Identity Copy.

Be rest assured that all processes will be executed within the ambit of laws of both countries.

Yours Faithfully
Antonio Carvalho.
