Complaint 191552 Details

I didn't lose any money. Already figured it to be a scam. Just wanted to let other know as well! This is the e-mail he sent...


Hello Cindy,

Thanks so much for your response.


I would prefer if we talk this matter over on the phone, however, I request that you go through the details below for a better understanding of this possible joint venture.

My mail to you was written as a matter of last resort because of the circumstances surrounding this claim. Mr Ryan Settle was an oil merchant and he had oil dealings around Europe,Asia, and Africa. He died in 2004 at 54, along side his wife, Maria, 46, and their only daughter, Katharina, 11.

I am not too sure you are actually related to this person because we have since carried out a search on his actual extended family ties and which efforts have been to no avail and hence my contacting you. I had contacted you to solicit your honest assistance in re-profiling funds being to my late client. I want you to consider the details so you could understand the fuller reasons I need your co-operation.

Mr Ryan Settle lived most of his years here in LONDON. I served as his private attorney for the last eight years preceding his death, and I had known the family a little while before then. Mr Ryan migrated into LONDON a long time ago as an orphan.I contacted you because after the death of my late client, I was informed by the Bank to search for any member of his extended family (related especially consanguinity), to put up a claim, or who could be so represented as managers or trustees for his deposited funds with them which stands at over 30 Million Pounds due to the fact that he died with his immediate family members.After preliminary efforts of search which came to no avail, We were given an ultimatum early this year to look for someone to come for the claim or have the funds liquidated and made unserviceable in accordance with existing laws because it will be assumed that no member of his family is alive.However, it might interest you to know that, after a thorough investigation in the Bank, I found out that some members of the company are currently planning to divert this fund in their selfish interest and only want to use the excuse that since I am not able to look for some one to make the claim,the money should be made unserviceable and that means reverting the fund to the Government while the company retains a percentage of it.After their plans and professional consideration on my part, I decided to look for some one credible, with the line last name with my late client, to apply for this claim due to the fact that I have at my possession some legal documents which are very important and which might be requested by them and which, can only be provided by my chambers since they have since been with us.

I feel and know that you will be able to make this claim successfully because of your last name which is in line as that of my late client's and as a result of this I do not want the Bank to be aware that I contacted you first in order to prevent them from going into much investigations on whom you actually are and that can put the success of this transaction on the line.I want you to be rest assured that this is legal with no risk involved, since all the legal documents that gives you the right to make the claim is available.This is a deal I am offering you and I want you to know that it requires only a mature mind to understand all I am saying and I believe you are mature enough which is the reason I am going further.

I am taking my time to explain all these to you now because I want you to see the reasons why my name should not be mentioned any time you are discussing with the members of the Bank and why this transaction has to be kept really confidential in order for us to be able to achieve our goals neatly.NOTE that if they request to know how you came to know that your family member (Ryan) had such an amount of funds with them and who contacted you, which I am not sure they will ask, but in order to be on the safer side, if you are asked, be confident to tell them that the extended family discovered some documents in his archives showing that Mr Ryan Settle lodged such funds with them and that is why you have been sent by the paternal family to contact the bank. Anyway, further deliberations will be held on this as we proceed.I want you to know that I have these documents as well as the death certificate of Mr Ryan Settle to show to you as proof and I will release them to you as soon as I have attained your confidence, maybe after we speak on phone. I will also provide you with any information you need as we proceed.Please bear in mind that you have to be really sure if you are going ahead or not for I do not want to jeopardize the success of this transaction which means so much to me at the moment. I will wait for your response and please do not forget about the discreet nature of this transaction.

Kindly send me your direct telephone number and I will call you as soon as possible or call me on my direct telephone number +44 161 408 8167.
Best Regards,
Adam E. David Esq..
