Hello,
Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics.
I will introduce myself as Mr. Lindsay Town, a staff in the accounts management section of the above firm here in the United Kingdom.
One of our accounts with holding balance of £15,000,000 (Fifteen Million British Pounds) has been dormant and has not been operated for the past four (4) years.
From my investigations and confirmations, the owner of this account,a foreigner by name Kurt Kahle died in July,2000 see this

and since then nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money because he has no family members who are aware of the existence of neither the account nor the funds.
I have secretly discussed this matter with a senior official of this company and we have agreed to
find a reliable foreign partner to deal with. We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next of kin of these funds from the deceased and funds released to you after due processes have been followed.
This transaction is totally free of risk and as the fund is legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act. On receipt of your response I will furnish you with detailed clarification as it relates to this mutual benefit transaction. I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible if you are interested.
Mr. Town.
