Subject: Message from UNION BANK PLC
My name is MR. TANKO DARUJE. I am an Accountant with UNION BANK PLC,also
a personal Account Manager to LATE MR.MICHAEL ROBINSON a citizen of United
State of America who until his death worked with an Oil Development Company
in Nigeria. (NIGERIA NATIONAL PETROLEUM COPORATION).(NNPC).On April 21,
2000, my client, "LATE MR. MICHAEL ROBINSON", his wife and his three children
were involved in a fatal car accident on their way to Muritala Muhamed International
Airport to aboard flight to his country for a two months leave that was
granted to him that by the company. Unfortunately,none of them survived
the sad event because it was a fatal accident.
Since then I have made several inquiries to your embassy to locate any of
my clients extended Relatives or next of kin, this also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts I had made trying to locate the
next of kin, I now decided to look for some one over the Internet, who
can stand as his family member to come forward and claim the money in our
bank.
Meanwhile, I am calling on you to assist in repatriating this money and
property left behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared
unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged,particularly
the UNION BANK PLC, where the deceased had an account valued at ($10.5 Million
US dollars), The Bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin
or have the account confiscated within some period of time.Since I have
not been able to locate the relatives for over some years now, I seek your
consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds
of this account valued at ($15.5 Million US
dollars), can be paid to you and you and I can share the money thus: 65%
to me and 30% for you, while 5% will be set aside for any expenses that
may be incurred by both parties. An attorney will be contracted to help
revalidate and authorize all the necessary legal documents that can be used
to back up any claim we may put forward before the bank.
All I require is your honest cooperation, your contact telephone number
and fax if any to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee
you that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you and I from any breach of the law or illegality, thus this deal
is free from any kind of illegality as far as am concerned.
Please contact me with my private E-mail:-tankodaruje@sify,com
I am looking forward to seeing your response soonest.
Best regards,
MR.TANKO DARUJE
(External Auditor Accountant)
UNION BANK PLC
