Dear Patner,
I am MARK COLLINS Chambers and associates. This mail is written and intended to solicit your assistance to be presented as NEXT OF KIN to my Late Client, MR. PAUL SIDENER.
My Deceased Client MR. PAUL SIDENER, an AMERICAN with the DEPARTMENT OF PETROLEUM RESOURCES(DPR) in Nigeria made a fixed Deposit of Fund valued at $15m USD with GLOBAL LINK SECURITY COMPANY(GLSC) and unfortunately lost his life with his wife and kid in a car accident along Shagamu express way on October 31,2000.
The only know nest of kin is his wife who also lost her life also in the auto crash except some vital document related to the Deposit still in my possession.
The Governing Body of the Security company has contacted me on this matter and I am yet to provide the Next of Kin to lay claims to the Fund.
Under a clear and legitimate agreement with you, I shall seek your consent to be presented as the Next of Kin so that my late Clients' Fund will not be confiscated by the SECURITY COMPANY.
For the sake of transparency on this matter, you are free to make immediate contact to me via my e-mail for further information related to this matter.
Thank you very much for your anticipated acceptance while we expect your prompt response and reply to markcollins1010@yahoo.co.uk .
Best Regards,
BARRISTER MARK COLLINS

Again, I hope some common sense questions will kill the rising hope you may have of being afflicted with sudden riches - do you know anyone in Nigeria who might have had $15m? Probably not.
