Dear Friend,
I wish to accost you with a request that would be of
immense benefit to both of us. Being an executor of
wills, it is
possible that we may be tempted to make
fortune out of our client's
situations, when we cannot
help it, or left with no better option. The
issue I am
presenting to you is a case of my client who willed a
fortune to his next-of-kin. It was most unfortunate
that he and his
next-of-kin died on the same day in
the Sharja plane crash of Tuesday
10 February 2004. I
am now faced with confusion of who to pass the
fortune
to.
According to the English law, the fortune is supposed
to
be bequeathed to the government. However, I don't
belong to that school
of thought which proposes that
the fortune of unlucky people be given
to the
government.My purpose of contacting you is to seek
your acting
as the beneficiary of the will, and lay
claim the legacy of £12.4
million, which this
unfortunate client of mine bequeathed to his
next-
of-kin. For now, I alone know about his will, as
my client has great
confidence in me.
Everything will be left between you and I. The
share
would be 25% for you and 75% for me. I would want to
take care of
the needy and less privileged, as this is
my primary objective. All I
have to do is amend the
will to make you the beneficiary to the £12.4
million
legacy.
Again, I feel that you may apprehensive and consider
this amount too big for you to defend. It does not
matter, as there are
documents to back it up. This is
a legacy being passed on to a next-of-
kin. As I am not
very sure of getting your consent on the issue I
prefer not to divulge my full identity so as not to
risk being
disbarred. The English Bar considers it a
breach of the oath of the
English Bar. I need not
emphasize to you that the sensitivity of this
issue
need not be toyed with by neglecting its
confidentiality. I
therefore appeal to you not discuss
this request with anybody, even if
you decline my
request.
Until I am sure of your consent and full
cooperation,
I would prefer that we maintain correspondence by
email.
At this point I want to assure you that your
true consent, full
cooperation and confidentiality are
all that are required for us to
take full advantage of
this opportunity.
I look forward to hearing
from you soon.
Yours truly
Barr Oliver Meddick
