FROM THE DESK OF MR. TANKO DIALLO
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK
OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO
I AM MR TANKO DIALLO, THE BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER OF AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK BURKINA FASO (ADB) IN WEST AFRICA, WITH DUE RESPECT AND HUMILITY, I WRITE TO YOU IRRESPECTIVE OF THE FACT THAT YOU DON'T KNOW ME..
IN MY DEPARTMENT WE DISCOVERED AN ABANDONED SUM OF $8,300,000.00 US DOLLARS (EIGHT MILLLION, THREE HUNDRED US DOLLARS)IN AN ACCOUNT THAT BELONGS TO ONE OF OUR FOREIGN CUSTOMER WHO DIED ON A PLANE CRASH.THIS CLIENT WHO PERISHED ALONG WITH HIS NEXT OF KIN WITH KOREAN AIR LINE, FLIGHT NUMBER 801 WITH THE WHOLE PASSENGERS ON 6TH OF AUGUST 1997 AND FOR YOUR PERUSAL YOU CAN VIEW THIS SITE HTTP://WWW.CNN.COM/WORLD/9708/06/GUAM.PASSENGER.LIST
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 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 THAT I 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'T WANT THIS MONEY TO GO INTO THE BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED BILL.
THE REQUEST OF FOREIGNER AS NEXT OF KIN IN THIS BUSINESS IS OCCASIONED
BY THE FACT THAT THE CUSTOMER WAS A FOREIGNER AND A BURKINABE CANNOT STAND AS NEXT OF KIN TO A FOREIGNER.
I AGREE THAT 30% OF THIS MONEY WILL BE FOR YOU AS FOREIGN PARTNER, IN
RESPECT TO THE PROVISION OF A FOREIGN ACCOUNT AND 70% WOULD BE FOR ME;
THEREFORE TO ENABLE THE IMMEDIATE TRANSFER OF THIS FUND TO YOU AS
ARRANGED, YOU MUST APPLY FIRST TO THE BANK AS BUSINESS PARTNER OR NEXT OF KIN
OF THE DECEASED INDICATING YOUR BANK INFORMATION, WHERE THE MONEY WILL BE REMITTED.
UPON RECEIPT OF YOUR REPLY, I WILL SEND TO YOU BY FAX OR EMAIL THE TEXT
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 MAIL
THROUGH THIS EMAIL.
YOUR'S FAITHFULLY
MR.TANKO DIALLO
