FROM THE DESK OF MR.NWAOCHA IHEZIE.
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER,
FOREIGN REMMITTANCE DEPT.
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK,
COTONOU,REPUBLIC OF BENIN.
TEL.NO.+229-97-60-89-15:
TOP SECRET:
Dear Friend,
I am a staff of African Development Bank in the file/computer department.
I got your contact through an internet business Search for a reliable and
trustworthy person that can help me to champion this great business
transaction so i decided to contact you on this business opportunity after
my prayers and my Spirit told me to contact you so that we can cliam this
fund together and share it together if the fund is transfered to your
personal Bank account in your Country.
In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of $ 15.5m US dollars
(FIFTEEN million FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND US dollars) .In an account that
belongs to one of our, foreign customer,who died along with his entire
family in July 2000 in a plane crash.
Veiw this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
Since we got information about the death of this Bank customer, we have been
expecting his next of kin to come up and claim the money that is left
behind here in my Bank and because we cannot release the fund unless
somebody applies for the fund as next of kin or the relation to the
deceased Bank customer as indicated in our banking guidelines but
unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died
alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery from the investigation which i made that
I decided to contact you into this businness proposal and also guide you
here for the Bank Top official to release the money to you as the next of
kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement of
the whole fund in your country since nobody is coming up for the cliam.And I
dont want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill.
The Banking law and guideline here in my country stipulates that if such
money remained unclamed after 4years, the money will be transfered into the
Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. So 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 Beninois here cannot stand as next of kin relation to a
foreigner.
That was why i 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 incured during the business and 60 % would be for me. As
soon as the whole fund is transfered into your foriegn nominated Bank
account in your country i will visit your country for the disbursement of
the fund according to the percentages indicated above.
Therefore to enable the immediate trnansfer of this fund to you as arranged
by me here, you must apply first to the bank here as relations or next of
kin of the deceased Bank customer in the Bank here indicating:
Your Full Name
Your Bank Name.
Your private telephone No.
Your Fax No.
This is for easy and effective communication and also the location where in
the money will be remitted into. Please note that upon receipt of your
reply, I will immediately send to you by fax or email the text of the
application. I will also not fail to bring to your notice that this
transaction is a hitch free business transaction and that you should not
entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements on how this whole
fund will be transfered into your private nominated Bank account in your
country has smoothly arranged by me here .
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Best regards.
Mr.Nwaocha Ihezie.
