Business proposal in accordance with inheritance

Good day,
I am aware that this letter has come to you as a surprise as we have not met before
or handled any business deal in the past. Nevertheless, I have contacted you with
good faith and genuine intentions, and I hope I can trust you with this Inheritance
Opportunity which I explain below.
My name is Mr Gavin Brooks an account manager with NatWest Bank PLC here in United
Kingdom. I personally retrieved your contact address in my search for a trustworthy
partner to stand as the next of kin to a deceased customer of our bank late client,
who died in London from Cardiac Arrest in the year 2002, unfortunately he died
intestate leaving his account in our bank with an open beneficiary status.
All efforts made by our bank to locate his relatives has been unsuccessful, so I
decided to write you as I have monitored this account in the bank for almost
10years, and no one has come forth with any claim. I would like to present you to
our bank as his next of kin to claim this dormant account worth Eighteen Million
Seven Hundred Thousand British Pounds Sterling. You will apply to the bank as an
extended relative to the deceased customer while I work from the inside to make
sure all needed information and evidence are provided to back up your claim since
you both share the same last name.
During the latest managerial meeting held in our bank, in line with the new
financial year that stated in April; an open beneficiary mandate was placed on all
dormant account to encourage possible relatives to come forth with a claim, If not,
these accounts would be reverted back to the coffers of the British Government as
unclaimed estate at the expiration of a 10 year dormancy period approved by the
Government. It was on this decision of the bank that I hastened up to write you
this letter as it is very obvious that no member of the family has any knowledge of
this account; else these funds shouldn't be left dormant until this date, and I am
sure you do not want the Government to claim it either.
On completion of this transaction and funds confirmed in your account, we shall
disburse the funds equally 50% / 50%. As an insider in the bank, I am here to guide
you in all the procedures, and I assure you of success once you keep strictly to my
instructions. This transaction would be handled under due inheritance procedures
and legitimate arrangement to keep us free from any breach of the law, and it also
requires all confidentiality at this stage, and I believe that you are ready to
keep this information at Top-secret until we are able to claim the funds from the
bank.
Please send your response to my private email address below indicating readiness to
proceed with this transaction, and I will forward you more details:
Sincerely,
Mr Gavin Brooks
