Attention: The President/CEO.

I am barrister Frank Sankho (Esq.), an English
speaking Senegalese Solicitor & Financial
Attorney/Consultant. I was the personal attorney to
late Daniel Thorp who was an expatriate mining
consultant/contractor with Teaser Petroleum
Corporation in St Louis-Senegal. Mr. Daniel Thorp
here-in-after referred as my client was also a
Diamond/Gold Merchant.

Mr. Daniel Thorp made a numbered time (Fixed) deposit
for a substantial amount in a bank in Dakar, capital
of Senegal with standing statement/agreement with
the bank that all correspondences in respect to the
fixed deposit contract must be sent to him through my
humble chambers. Upon maturity, the routine
notification was sent to me whom I dispatched to his
forwarding address as usual without no reply. 

After a month, I sent a reminder which I received
from the bank without any reply again. Finally, I
discovered from my client’s contract employers- Teaser
Petroleum Corporation that he died among many others
in the Kenya Airways flight of 31st January, 2000 that
crashed into the Atlantic Ocean in Abidjan, Cote
D’Ivoire. On further investigations, I found out that
he died without making any WILL and all attempts to
trace his next of kin was fruitless. 

I also discovered that Mr.Daniel Thorp did not declare
any kin or relations in all his official documents,
including his fixed deposit contract with the
bank in Dakar-Senegal.

I am contacting you based on the official letter I
just received from his bankers reminding me that
Senegalese law states that at the expiration of
5(five) years the money will revert to the ownership
of the Senegalese Government if I do not confirm the
next of kin to claim the fund.

Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a
foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Daniel
Thorp so that the fruits ofthis old man’s labor will
not go into the hands of some corrupt government
officials. Note that this transaction is simple and
risk free because I will provide expert legal services
that will guarantee the successful execution of this
deal. 

I wish to point out that after the claims, I would
want 20% of this money to be shared among charity
organizations, while the remaining 80% is shared
equally between us. Most importantly, I would also
require your assistance towards investing my share in
your country or anywhere as you may advice. If you are
interested, please contact me immediately .

Upon your response, I shall provide you with more
details and how we shall proceed with the claims. I
expect you to observe utmost confidentiality and be
rest assured that this transaction would be profitable
for both of us. Please acknowledge receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual business endeavour by furnishing me with the following;

1. Beneficiary name and address
2. Direct Telephone and fax numbers

you can contact me with my private email address:[email-masked]

Awaiting your urgent reply.

Thanks & Regards

Barrister Frank sankho (Esq.)
