Subject: CONFIDENTIAL PROPOSAL
Hi my friend how are u? my name is Mr Rami Baitie.
Am the Manager of Eco bank,with our branh here in Accra ghana, West Africa.
i,ll love to be friends and bussiness partner with you,because there,s a
bussiness proposal i have for you.
As the manager of my bank it came to my notice there has been a dormant
account in our bank with the sum of 17 million five hundred dollar,s.,the
account belongs to a late Mr KHALIL AL NASSER,who was a Iraqi Foreign Oil
consultant/contractor with the CHEVRON PETROLEUM CORPORATION,here in Ghana.
He made a (Fixed deposit) for 36 calendar months, valued at
US$17,500,000.00 (Seventeen Million Five hundred Thousand Dollars only),and
I happen to be his account officer before I was moved to my present position
recently as manager of my bank. As manager of my bank, Upon maturity in
2005, as his account officer and as well the bank manager, it is my duty to
notify him on the maturity date, so I sent a routine notification to his
forwarding address but the letter was returned undelivered.After sometime, I
tried sending back the letter, but it was again returned and finally I
discovered from his contract employers, Chevron Petroleum Corporation that
Mr. Khalil Al Nasser died as a result of torture in the hand of Saddam
Hussein (former Iraqi President) during one of his trips to his country
Iraq, as he was accused of leaking information to the Americans. On
further investigation, I discovered that MR. KHALIL AL NASSER. family wife
and two sons died during the Gulf War in Iraq and was the reason why he did
not declare any next of kin or relation in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank and did not leave any
WILL. With the recent change of government in my country and with their
efforts to support the United Nations in checkmating terrorism aid , the
government will pass a new financial control law which will give the
government authority to interrogate account owners of above $5.000. to
explain the source of the funds, making sure it is not for terrorism
support. If I do not move this money out of the country immediately, the
government will definitely confiscate the money, because my bank cannot
provide the account owner to explain the source of the money.I cannot
directly transfer out this money without the help of a foreigner and that is
why I am contacting you for an assistance. All documents to enable you claim
this fund will be carefully worked out and there is practically no risk
involved, the transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that will protect you from any breach of law.If you accept to work with me,
I want you to state how you wish us to share the funds in percentage, so
that both parties will be satisfied. If you are interested, contact me as
soon as you receive this message on my private
email:ramibaitie@yahoo.com<email%3Aramibaitie@yahoo.com>,so
we can go over the details,
1) your direct mobile/fax number.
(2) your name and country resident address.
(3) Your private E-mail box
I wait your urgent reply .
Regards,
Mr. Rami Baitie
