Subject: Can You Handle This ????.
Hopefuly,
Please Permit me to make your acquaintance in so informal manner. This is necessitated by my urgent need to reach a dependable and trust wordy foreign partner. This request may seem strange and unsolicited but I will crave your indulgence and pray that you view it seriously.
My name is Mr.Daniels Kodjo,I am the manager Credit and Account Department of a Finance/Security Company here in Togo.
I am writing in a respect of an unclaimed deposit belonging to a foreigner MR MORRIS THOMPSON an American and great industrialist and a resident of Fairbanks, Alaska, who unfortunately lost his life in the plane crash of Alaska Airlines Flight 261 which crahsed on January 31 2000, including his wife MRS THELMA THOMPSON and his only daughter SHERYL THOMPSON leaving nobody to claim the money.
You shall read more news about the crash on visiting this website
http://www.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska.airlines.list/
Since the demise of THOMPSONS, I personally have watched with kin interest to see any next of kin or beneficiary to this deposit but no one has come up for the claim of usd$14.5m(fourteen million, five hundred thousand united states dollars)which has being in our security vault for a very long time. On this note, I decided to seek for your noble assistance to help me come for the release and transfer of this fund into any of your nominated bank account abroad, In the sense to make you the beneficiary to this unclaimed deposit. As no one both friends and relatives has come up as the next of kin to this deposit and our banking ethnics here does not allow such deposit to stay more than six years, because after six years the money will be confiscated into the nations treasury as an unclaimed deposit.
The request of the foreigner as a next of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that, the customer was a foreigner and aTogolese can not stand as the next of kin to a foreigner. Thereafter I will visit your country for mutual sharing between both of us. I have agreed to share this money with you in the mutual understanding of 65%/35%. You keep 35% while I keep 65%, How about that? Bear in mind also that I would like to invest my own part of the share in your country. As I am almost due for retirement. For us to proceed towards this transaction, you have to send an application text to the security company as the next of kin to their deceased customer.
I will send to you a text of application which you shall re-type and send to the finance house, Upon your response to this mail. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is hitch free and that you should not entertain any fear as the whole required arrangment has been perfected for the successfull claim and transfer of this fund.
Don't forget to keep this transaction a top confidential untill we achieve our goal.
Thank you and God bless you.
Waiting for your positive response.
Best Regards,
Mr.Daniels Kodjo.
