Dearest One,
This letter must come to you as a big surprise, but I believe it is only
a day that people meetand become great friends and business
partners. My name is SMITH KAKA, the present branch Manager of a bank here
in cote d i'voire .I write you this proposal in good faith, believing that
I can trust you with the information I am about to reveal to you. Like I
said, I have a transaction that will benefit both of us, as your
assistance is required as a foreigner. I use to head the Accounts department
in my bank head office, but last December I was asked to
take position of a Manager of our branch in Kumasi who passed on, so that
was how I became the present Manager and discovered a fortune. As I
resume duty, I discovered an account with total sum of $7,500,000 million
that has not been operated on for the past 4years. From my
investigation, I found out that this account belongs to one Late Mr. ZiyaBazhayev
a Russian big time Oil dealer, who unfortunately lost his life in the
Yak-40 jetliner on March 9, 2000. You will read more newsabout thecrash
on visiting this
site;http://www.amarillonet.com/stories/031500/usn_LA0703.001.shtml
and http://news.1chinastar.com/ll/english/61934.shtml.
I have kept a close monitoring of the account since then and nobody has
come forward to claim the money as next of kin to the late Mr. Ziya
Bazhayev meaning that no one is aware of the account. I cannot directly
take out this money without the help of a foreigner and that is why Iam
contacting you for an assistance to claim the funds and share it with me.
As the Manager of my bank branch, I have the power to influence
the release of the funds to any foreigner that comes up as the next of kin
to the account, with the correct information concerning theaccount, which
I shall give you. I am seeking your co-operation to present youas the next
of kin to the account. 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. Contact me as soon as you receive this message if you feel
we can work together, so we can go over the details. Thanking you in advance
and may God bless you. Please, treat with utmost
confidentiality.
I wait your urgent response.
Regards,
SMITH KAKA.
