Subject: Happy to know you.
From: Mr. Boniface Udume.Head of Operations.Dear Friend,With much sincerity of purpose I make this contact with you in this divine year of 2006 as I strongly believed in spiritual expect life that control the physical and the divine nature that governs the universe. My name is Mr. Boniface Udume an accountant in a reputable bank in Benin Republic West Coast Africa.I am contacting you with the hope of having a private and confidential business with you. I am writing you asking for your assistance in the transfer of USD.10.8M (Ten Million, Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars). Before I go ahead with my request I will like to inform you that I loved if we could meet to discuss this transaction in person due to its magnitude, I am taking this urgent move in order to make an acquaintance with you prior to the time I will be due for an official assignment in Europe But first I will like to put in the light of this transaction. Close to the end of 2001 my bank decided to take a major
step by changing the policy of all its branches due to the merger with another bank. Hence due to the change in policies and top management it became necessary for some majors customers to determine their positions with the bank. Due to the large amount involved, some of the foreign customer who believed that the new policy would not benefit them found it hard to transfer their funds as result of procedures involved and limited time. A foreign customer Mr.Soren Anderson a national of your country approached me in confidence and asked for my assistance in the transfer of his funds, which I agreed to. I offered my assistance in the little way I could and I gave him some recommendation. Apparently the fund was moved from my bank shortly after this time. To my surprise I did not hear from him afterwards, which really was not what I expected, to more of my surprise I was contacted by the financial institution I recommended him to late last year that he has not come to finalize it!
s
transaction.After proper investigation I discovered that he was involved in an auto accident that took his life. And the deceased customer did not have on records with the bank in any close relation. Prior to this discovery, I was Compelled to assume responsibility for monitoring this fund, which is quite difficult for me due to my position in my bank. My proposal to you is for us to conclude this transaction together, as I cannot claim this fund by myself. I am ready to share it at ratio 60:40, 60% for me and 40% for you. I will like to assure that this transaction is risk free, but privacy is required and cannot be compromised. Please send to me your private phone number and fax, so I can give you more details I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not disappoint me. Endeavor to contact me immediately through my direct email: boniface_udume@yahoo.comRegards,Mr. Boniface Udume.
