From Dr Willie Adjovi.
General Manager Continental
Trust Bank Of Benin-West Africa.
Good Day .
Greetings to you,
This letter must come to you as a big surprise, but I believe it is only
a day that people meet and become great friends and business partners.
My name is Dr. Willie Ajovi,the present branch General Manager of my bank
Continental Trust Bank(CTBB) Cotonou Republique Du Benin West Africa.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 financial assistance is highly required
as a foreigner.
I am contacting you to assist in repatriating the money left behind by my
client before it will be confiscated or declared unserviceable by this bank
where this deposit valued at $10.5M (Ten million five hundred thousand dollars)was
lodged. This bank has issued a notice to contact the next of kin, or the
account will be confiscated into the bank treasury account since the lodgement
was made in my branch and all the effort to locate the extended family has
failed.
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 Cotonou who passed
on,so that was how I became the present Manager and discovered a fortune.
As I resumed duty, I discovered an account with total sum of $10.5 million
that has not been operated on for the past 4 years.From my investigation,
I found out that this account belongs to one Late Mr.Ziya Bazhayev a Russian
big time Oil dealer, who unfortunately lost his life in the Yak-40 jetliner
on March 9,2000. You will read more news about the crash on visiting these
site; http://www.amarillonet.com/stories/031500/usn_LA0703.001.shtml and
http://news.1chinastar.com/ll/english/61934.shtml.
My proposition to you is to seek your consent to present you as the next-of-kin
and beneficiary of my named client, so that the proceeds of this account
can be paid to you. Then we can share the amount on a mutually agreed percentage
. All legal documents to back up your claim as my client's next-of-kin will
be provided .
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this transaction
through.This will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect
you from any breach of the law. If this business proposition offends your
moral values,do accept my apology.
Be rest assured once more that the transaction is 100% risk free and there
will be no hitches either now or in the future, as every supposedly loose
ends have been knitted. Please while replying this mail include your full
contact address , direct telephone number, fax number and banking details.
Please treat with utmost confidentiality for security reasons and Please
contact me immediately to indicate your interest through my alternative
email address (wadjovi@zipmail.com.br) and also call me on phone 00229 40
86 63 ,for further notification and directives accordingly.
Thanking you in advance and may God bless you.
Your's Faithfully,
Dr. Willie Adjovi.
