Subject: honest person
Dear Sir,
TOP URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS FOR YOU.
I am Mrs. Vivian salife. The Senior Accountant in Union Bank of Nigeria
Plc I am the widow of late Samuel Salife and since my husband died things
have being very hard for my kids and me and my son Ali who is suffering
from heart problem since and now is becoming very serious and I have collected
four months salary from my Md just to give the doctors that is treating
him because he said that if I did not deposit some money that they will
not treat him but I have look left and look right and I only have this deal
from my bank and I know that if you will be honest to me this deal will
be profitable for both of us and I am not the type that always runs deal
in the bank but due to my present condition I now decided to contact you
for assistance but all I want is your honesty in this business then I will
give you all the details about this money in my bank.
Greetings, I am Vivian Salife The senior account Union bank of Nigeria Plc.
However I got your contact Through the International web directory. I decided
to contact you by email because I feel that it is more Secured and private.
Recently we discovered a Dormant Account with a huge Amount of Money Valued
at US$14.200,000.00(FORTEEN MILLION, TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS) that
belongs to one of our late Customers who died in a plane crash.
During our investigation and auditing in this bank, my department came across
a very huge sum of money belonging to Mr.Ziya Bazhayev, President of the
Oil Alliance Company who died on Yak-40 aircraft, on a charter flight from
Moscow to Kiev on March 9, 2000. The fund has been dormant in his account
with this Bank without any claim of the funds in our custody either from
his family or relation before our discovery of this development.
The Banking law here stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed for
Six years, it will be forfeited
To the Bank treasury as an unclaimed bill it is only a foreigner that can
stand as a next Of kin and it is upon this discovery that I decided to contact
you to collaborate with you to pull out this dormant fund. In order to avert
This negative development, I now seek your permission to have you stand
in as next of kin to our late Customer So that the fund will be released
and paid into your account as the beneficiary?s next Of kin now that the
bank is still expecting a next of Kin or relative of the deceased, Mr.Ziya
Bazhayev You will read more news about the plane crash on these Websites,
http://www.amarillonet.com/stories/031500/usn_LA0703.001.shtml
And http://news.1chinastar.com/ll/english/61934.shtml
In fact I could have done this deal alone but because Of My position in
this country as civil servants, I am not allowed to operate a foreign account
and that would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of
transfer since I still work in this bank, this is the actual reason why
I required a second party or fellow who will assist me forward claims as
the next of kin and also provide either an existing bank account or to set
up a new Bank a/c immediately to receive this fund, even an empty a/c can
also serve for this purpose.
On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 40% as
gratification for your assisting me, and the remaining 60% will be for me.
What I want from you is for you to act as the deceased next of kin. I have
in my possession, all the necessary Documents to successfully accomplish
the operation. Bear in mind that this proposal is 100% risk free.
Further Information will be given to you as soon as I receive your positive
response. I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible stating your
wish.
I await your Urgent response.
Best regards,
Mrs. Vivian Salife.
Senior Accountant,
Union Bank of Nigeria Plc.
