URGENT BUSINESS PROPOSAL
SIR, I KNOW THIS MIGHT COME TO YOU AS A VERY BIG
SUPPRISE ,BUT IT REMAINS A LIFE TIME OPPORTUNITY FOR
BOTH OF US TO GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER VERY WELL
REMEMBER FRIENDS ARE MADE AND OTHERS ARE DISCOVERED.
I AM MRS.KATE.BROWN MANAGER WITH UNION TRUST BANK
OF DAKAR, SENEGAL.I AM CURRENTLY IN EUROPE ON
VACATION AND ALSO TO SEARCH FOR AN HONEST AN
RELIABLE PERSON THAT CAN ACT AS THE NEXT OF KIN OF
AN EUROPEN BUSINESS MAN (MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER)
FROM MUNICH GERMANY,WHO DIED IN JULY 2000 PLANE CRASH
ALONGSIDE WITH HIS WHOLE FAMILY.FOR MORE INFORMATION
ABOUT THIS CRASH AND PERSON'S YOU CAN CONTACT
THIS WEBSITE :

BEFORE HIS DEATH, HE DEPOSITED THE SUM OF US$10.5M
(10 MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS) IN OUR
BANK.SINCE AFTER HIS DEATH,AS THE MANAGER AND THE
ACCOUNTANT OF THE BANK,WE HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS
TO GET IN TOURCH WITH ANY MEMBER OF HIS FAMILY OR
RELATIVES TO COME UP AND PRESENT HIM OR HERSELF AS
THE NEXT OF KIN TO THE LATE MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER
AND CLAIM THE SAID US$10.5M, SINCE WE GOT THIS
INFORMATION ABOUT HIS DEATH, WE HAVE BEEN EXPECTING
HIS NEXT OF KIN TO COME OVER AND CLAIM HIS MONEY
BECAUSE WE CAN NOT RELEASE IT UNLESS SOMEBODY
APPLIES FOR IT AS NEXT OF KIN OR RELATION TO THE
DECEASED AS INDICATED IN OUR BANKING AND FINANCIAL
POLICIES BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE LEARNT THAT HIS
SUPPOSED NEXT OF KIN MRS ROSE SCHRANNER DIED ALONG
SIDE WITH HIM THE CRASH LEAVING NO BODY BEHIND TO
CLAIM THE MONEY. I THEREFOR MADE FURTHER
INVESTIGATION AND DISCOVERED THAT
MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER DID NOT DECLARE ANY OTHER KIN
OR RELATION IN ALL HIS OFFICEAL DOCUMENT'S, INCLUDING
HIS BANK DEPOSIT PAPERWORK IN MY BANK. THIS SUM OF
(10.5MILLION US$)IS STILL SITTING IN MY BANK AND THE

AT THE END OF EACH YEAR. NO ONE WILL EVER COME
FORWARD TO CLAIM IT. IF THIS MONEY IS NOT CLAIMED

A BANK ACCOUNT IN ANY PART OF THE WORLD THAT YOU
WILL PROVID WILL THAN FACICLITATE THE TRANSFER OF
THIS MONEY TO YOU AS THE BENEFICIARY/NEXT OF KIN.THE
MONEY WILL BE PAID INTO YOUR ACCOUNT FOR US TO SHARE
IN THE RATIO OF 60% FOR ME & MY ACCOUNTANT AND 30% FOR
YOU,AND 10% WILL BE SET ASIDE TO COVER ALL INCURED
EXPENSES FOR THE DOCUMENTATION AND TO SETTLE TAX IN
