RE:TRANSFER OF (USD 15 MILLION)
In order to transfer out (USD 15 MILLION) fifteen million United States
Dollars)
from my bank FINANCIAL BANK BENIN. I have the courage to ask for your
assistance to handle this important and confidential business believing that
you will never let me down either now or in future.
I am Dr Antoine CAKPO ,the auditor of the bank. There is an account opened
in this bank in 2000 and since 2000 nobody has operated on this account
again. After going through some old files in the records,I discovered that
if I do
not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for nothing. The
owner
of this account is Mr. DESTIN PAL, a foreigner, and a miner at ASCON BENIN
SARL.,a geologist by profession and he died since 2001. No other person
knows
about this account or any thing concerning it, the account has no other
beneficiary
and my investigation proved to me as well that this company does not know
anything about this account and the amount involved is (USD 15M) fifteen
million
United States Dollars).
I want to transfer the [USD15M] fifteen million United States Dollars into a
safe
foreigners account abroad ,but I don't know any foreigner, I am only
contacting you
as a foreigner because this money can not be approved to a local bank here,
but
can only be approved to any foreign accountbecause the money is in us
dollars and
the former owner of the account Mr.DESTIN PAL is a foreigner too. I know
that this
message will come to you as a surprise as we don't know our selves before,
but be
sure that it is real and a genuine business. I only got your contact address
from my
secretary who operates computer with believe in God that you will never let
me down
in this business. You are the only person that I have contacted in this
business, so
please reply urgently so that I will inform you the next step to take
urgently. Send also
your private telephone and fax number including the full details of the
account to be
used for the deposit.
I want us to meet face to face or sign a binding agreement to bind us
together so that
you can receive this money into a foreign account or any account of your
choice where
the fund will be safe. I will fly to your country for withdrawal and sharing
and other
investments.I am contacting you because of the need to involve a foreigner
with foreign account and foreign beneficiary.I need your full co-operation
to make this work
fine because the management is ready to approve this payment to any
foreigner who has
correct information of this account,which I will give to you later
immediately, if you are able
and with capability to handle such amount in strict confidence and trust
according to my
instructions and advice for our mutual benefit because this opportunity will
never come again
in my life. I need truthful person in this business because I don't want to
make mistake.
I need your strong assurance and trust.
With my position now in the office I can transfer this money to any
foreigner's reliable account,
which you can provide with assurance that this money will be intact pending
my physical arrival
in your country for sharing. and i want to remaind you that your share has
been carculated at
