Re Greetings From London

A DEPOSIT BOX HAS BEEN
TRACED TO YOUR NAME

I work for BT & Co., a U.K. law firm that arranges
asset management and storage of special valuables for reputable
clients.
We have information concerning of the availability of a
deposit box with a Vaults Storage Company which has been listed in your
name. A benefactor made you the beneficiary of the deposit box which
contains US15,000,000.00. The lease on the Safe deposit box has expired
and no further rental payments or claims have since been made since
dormancy.

Financial assets are considered unclaimed when contact with
an owner or beneficiary is lost for an extended period and the lease
expired without further rental payments or claims. This often happens
due to a name change after marriage or divorce, an unreported change of
address or expired postal forwarding order ,incomplete, illegible
records and result of computer and clerical errors. When owners or
their heirs fail to claim an asset over a specified number of years
known as the dormancy period, those left holding the money: banks,
stock brokers, utilities, employers, life insurance companies and
others - transfer custody to a special trust account in a process known
as escheat.

The funds contained in the deposit box is from asset
owners whose property was confiscated between 1939 and 1945 by the U.K.
Custodian for Enemy Property pursuant to wartime Trading with the Enemy
legislation. Affected by seizures were companies and citizens of
"belligerent enemies" - countries who had declared war on the U.K.
(Germany, Hungary, Romania & Bulgaria); as well as "technical enemies,"
occupied nations like Czechoslovakia and Poland. In response to an
admission that documentation had been destroyed, the British government
has established a Payment Scheme to compensate victims or their heirs.

We can provide legal assistance and claims administration through the
Treasury Solicitor, Department of the Probate Registry for transfer of
ownership of the safe deposit box to you as the sole and legal
beneficiary. After which we will arrange the release of the safe
deposit box to you.
More Information will be provided concerning the
deposit box when you get back to us.

Thank you and I remain
