Dear Friend,
Compliment of the season.I got to know of you in search for a
reputable and reliable person to assist me in an urgent need requiring utmost
trust and confidentiality.
I am John Arzika, a manager in the Foreign Remittance Dept. Standard Trust
Bank Plc. I am writing this letter to ask for your support and co-operation
to carry out this business opportunity in my department.
We discovered an abandoned sum of ($15million) Fifteen-Million
Dollars Only in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer Late
Mr.Robert Ebner,who died along with his entire family of a wife and three
children in October 31, 1999 in a plane crash.Since we heard of his death,
we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and put claims for his
money as the heir, because we can not release the fund from his account
unless someone applies for the claims as the next of kin to the
deceased asindicated in our banking guidelines.
Unfortunately, neither their family member nor distant relatives
has ever appeared to claim the fund.Upon this discovery,I and other officials
in my department have agreed to make a deal with you and release the fund
into your account as the NEXT OF KIN of the decease, since no one came for
it or discovered the maintained account with our Bank otherwise the fund
will be returned to the bank‘s treasury as unclaimed fund.
Please visit http://www.greatdreams.com/PassEAir990.htm
for your confirmation of the death.
The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of
60% for me and my colleages,and 30% for you,while 10% will be for expenses
both parties might have incurred during the process of the transferring.
After the successful completion of this transaction,one of my
colleaguesand I will come to your country and mind our percentage.It is
from our share we intend to import medical equipments into my country as
a way of recycling the fund. To commence this transaction, we require you
to immediately indicate your interest if this proposal is OK. by you or
you do not wish to take advantage of the trust we hope to bestow on you,then
kindly reach me through my private email address(ARZIKA-OGBODOLTD@go2netmail.com).
On getting your response and willingness to do this business with me and
my colleagues,i will then inform you on how we go further in the transactions.
NOTIFICATION:THIS TRANSACTION IS 100% RISK FREE ,FOR YOUR
INFORMATION AND ASSURANCE TO AVOID BEIGN SCARED ABOUT THE TRANSACTIONS.
I await your immediate response.
Best Regards.
John Arzika
Manager.
Standard Trust Bank Plc.
