From: "Dr. Steinhauser Jan" <steinhauserjanx@aim.com>
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 19:08:14 +1100
Subject: Contact to me urgently.
Dear Friend,
Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into financial transaction
for our mutual benefits. I
am Dr. Steinhauser Jan Rudolf, the personal assistance to Prof. Rijkman
Groenink, Chairman,
Abn Amro Bank N.V, Netherlands. The fact is that we just got to know that
one of our foreign
customer DR. ALHAJI. ASHARY IBRAHIM ABDULHAMEED from Saudi Arabia who made
a
numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at
US$45,800,000.00
(Forty-five Million and Eighty Hundred Thousand United State Dollars) only
in our bank. Upon
maturity, we sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got
no reply. After a month,
we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers,
the Petroleum and
Mineral Resources Saudi Arabia that DR. ALHAJI. ASHARY IBRAHIM ABDULHAMEED
died
from an automobile accident. On further investigation, we found out that he
died without
making a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that DR. ALHAJI.
ASHARY IBRAHIM
ABDULHAMEED did not declare any kin or relations in all his official
documents, including
his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$45.8 Million is
still sitting in my Bank
and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of
each month. No one
will ever come forward to claim it. According to Laws of this Bank, at the
expiration of 5(Five)
years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Netherlands Government
if nobody applies
to claim the Fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand
in as the next of kin to
DR. ALHAJI. ASHARY IBRAHIM ABDULHAMEED so that the fruits of this old man's
labor
will not get into the hands of some corrupts Government officials. This is
simple, I will like you
to provide me immediately your full names, Telephone and Fax numbers and
address so that
my attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will
put you in Place as
the next of kin. We shall discuss the percentage of sharing in your
response.
The request for a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned
by the fact that the
customer was a foreigner and a citizen here cannot stand as next of kin to
a foreigner. I
therefore solicit for your assistance to come forward as the next of kin in
this business. So if
you are interested I advice you to write me your plan and send me your
detains through my
private email below in order for me to send you the whole arrangement about
this transaction.
Hope to get your understanding, trust and capable of handling this
transaction.
Thanks for your understanding and please reply me through:
steinhauserjanr@myway.com
Yours faithfully,
Dr. Steinhauser Jan Rudolf
