FROM MR. RUDI GEORGE CHAMPAGNIE
SUSQUEHANNA PATRIOT BANK MANAGER,
LONDON
FAX:00447092875114
Dear Friend,
I am the manager of Susquehanna Patriot Bank at the foreign remittance
department of bank of London I crave your indulgence as I contact you in
such a surprising manner. But I respectfully insist you read this letter
care fully as I am optimistic it will open doors for unimaginable
financial rewards for both of us.
In my department we discovered an abandoned sum (5.3m) Pounds only, in an
account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with
his entire family in November 1999 in a plan crash.
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next
of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased
asindicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately we learnt that all
his supposed next of kin or relation died along with him at the plan crash
leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this
business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin
or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since
nobody is coming for it and I don want this money to go into the bank
treasury as unclaimed Bill.
The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained
unclaimed after five years, the money will be transferred into the Bank
treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of a foreigner as next of kin in
this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner
and a Burkina be cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
We agree that 30% of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in
respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10% will be set aside for
expenses incurred during the business and 60% would be for, me and my
colleagues.
There after Land my colleagues will visit your country for disbursement
according to the percentages indicated.
private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication Upon
receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email of the
application.
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch
free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required
arrangements have been made for the transfer.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Yours faithfully,
RUDI GEORGE CHAMPAGNIE
