Subject: Awaiting Your Response.....From Mr Ayo Richard
Ayo Richard
Managing Director,
Guaranty Trust Bank Limited, (Gambia)
Banjul,Gambia
Good Day,
I crave Your indulgence to kindly attend to this mail in good faith as i do
not mean any
disrespect approaching you through this medium,it is due to the time
constrain of this matter.
I am Ayo Richard Managing director of Guaranty Trust Bank Limited, (Gambia),
Banjul.I came to
know about you in my search for a reliable and reputable person/company to
handle a confidential
business transaction that requires huge transfer of funds into an oversea
account.
On June 6, 2005,a Foreign auditing firm named Deloitte and Co,was contracted
to audit the
financial records of all the branches of my bank by the board of directors
of my bank.It was
observed by this team of financial expert that my branch financial records
was in excess of
$26.5(twenty six Million, five hundred thousand Dollars).
Records indicated that this funds that were afloat in my branch resulted
from accrued interest of
unclaim dividends of funds for over a period of ten(10) years that were
invested in unit trust by
investors in shares of companies quoted on Gambian stock exchange(GSE)in
real
estate-investment,money market instrument(such as treasury bills),fixed
income investments,and
goverment bonds issued by the apex bank of Gambia.
I am yet to brief the Directors of my bank about this unclaimed funds,My aim
is to transfer this
funds into an oversea account and for this I seek your assistance so that
the proceeds of this
unclaim dividends can be paid to you, so that we can both share the
money,60% to me and 40% to
you.
Can I trust you on this?.
The board of directors of my bank if aware of this unclaim funds will adopt
a resolution that
will see my branch forfeiting the money as an abandoned fund.The directors
will invoke the
abandoned property decree of 1994 which gives them the power to confiscate
funds that are
dicovered as unclaimed funds.
I have no doubt in my mind that the directors will divert this funds into
their private accounts
for their own interest under the excuse that i am unable to look for a
Beneficiary to make the
claim,the money will be made unserviceable and that means submitting the
funds to the federal
government of my country and some to the bank management which is not their
main intention.Well I
have reasoned very professionally and I can use my professionall knowledge
to move the funds out
of my bank,this is legally possible and would be done in accordance with the
laws of the land.
Consequently,I seek your consent to provide a foreign account that will
receive this funds for
safe-keeping pending when i meet with you for the disbursement of the funds.
I am writing you because I cannot operate a foreign account due to the
conditions of my
employment as a bank official.
The money will be moved out to any account in any part of the world that you
will provide for us
to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% for you.
If you are interested, please make sure you reply immediately and Upon your
response, I
shall then provide you with more details that will help you understand the
transaction.
Be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of
us because I shall
require your assistance to invest my share in any viable business that you
will advise on within
your country.
Awaiting your prompt response.
