FROM,Mr Abraham Daba
Auditing and Account Dept
United Bank of Africa
Victoria Island,Lagos
Attn:Good Friend,
I am Mr Abraham Daba , the director in charge of
auditing and accounting section of United Bank Of
Africa,Victoria Island Branch in Lagos-Nigeria in
West Africa. With due respect,I have decided to contact you on a
business transaction that will be very beneficial to
both of us at the end of the transaction .
During our investigation and auditing in this bank,
my department came across a very huge sum of money
belonging to a deceased person who died on November,
2005 in a plane crash and the fund has been dormant
in his account with this Bank without any claim of the fund either from his family or relation before we discovered that he died along
with his entire family.
Personally, I and my collegues have kept this
discovery secret for smooth execution. The said amount
was U.S $16.4M (Sixteen million, Four Hundred thousand United
States Dollars). As it may interest you to know, I got your impressive information through my good friends who works with chamber of commerce on foreign business relations here in Lagos. It is him who recommended
your person to me to be viable and capable to champion a business of such magnitude without any problem.
Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put claim
over this fund in your favour as the bonafide "Next
of Kin" to the deceased,get the required approval
and transfer this money to a foreign account has
been put in place and directives and needed
information will be relayed to you as soon as you
indicate your nterest and willingness to assist us
and also benefit your self in this great business
opportunity.
In fact I could have done this deal alone but would
eventually raise an eye brow time of transfer for a
Beninoeus to stand as a next of kin to a foreign
customer. This is the actual reason why it will
require a foreign partner who will forward claims as
the "Next of Kin" to the Bank and also present a
foreign account where you will need the money to be remited by the Correspondent Branch in charge of foreign remittance.
I will not fail to inform you that this transaction
is 100% risk free. On smooth conclusion of this
transaction, you will be entitled to 30% of the total
sum for your participation while the remaining 70% will be for me
and my collegues in this operation. Please, you have been adviced to keep this business confidentially as we are still in
service and intend to retire from service after we
conclude this deal with you.
I will be monitoring the whole transaction here in
the bank until you confirm the money in your account
and ask us to come down to your country for sharing
of the fund according to percentages and subsequent investment
either in your country or any country as you may advise. All other necessary vital information will be sent to you
when I hear from you.
I look forward to hear from you asap.
Yours faithfully,
Mr Abraham Daba
