*From Mr. Ramdo Compore.*

*Good day,
Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics
although.
*** *I am the bill and exchange Manager of a well known bank here in the
Burkina Faso. In one of our periodic auditing I discovered a dormant account
with holding balance of 8,000,000 (Eight Million United States Dollars )
which has not been operated for the past three years. From my investigations
and confirmations, the owner of this account, a foreigner by name Mr.
Gregory .B .Wilson died in plane crash in July 19, 2003 and since then
nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money because he
has no family members who are aware of the existence of neither the account
nor the funds.
I have secretly discussed this matter with a top senior minister official of
the federal ministry of finance here and we have agreed to find a reliable
foreign partner to transfer the fund into your account which you will
provide although due to his position he did not want to take active part but
as soon as you follow the instructions I will be getting from him,
everything will be successful because we will be working hand in hand with
him. We thus propose to do business with you, standing in as the next of kin
of these funds from the deceased and after due legal processes have been
followed the fund will be released to your account without delay and we will
use it for investment and to assist the less privileged in the society
because if we left the fund with the government it will be forfeited for
nothing and will be used to suppress the poor masses in the society.
This transaction is legitimate and does not originate from drug, money
laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act. Finally, I will give you 40%
for your co-operation, 10% will be for expenses both parties might have
incurred during this process. You should send me any of your valid
international passports. On receipt of your response I will furnish you
with detailed clarification as it relates to this mutual benefit.
You should send me your account information as states below, Even an empty
account is ok.
Your Age........ Status......... Your Full Name..........
Your Tel/Fax Number.......... State & Country................
Do you have any investment idea? I look forward to hearing from you *
