MR.TOYIN EDUN.

EMAIL:toyin_edun02@yahoo.co.uk
How are you doing with your family? I presume that all is well with
you.I am the manager of audit and accounting department at the foreign unit
of our bank.I got your contact from the international directory when i was
looking for a foreigner who will assist me to achieve a great success business
that will yeild us life success. Before i wrote you,i prayed that you will
be a honest and reliable person whom i can work with to achieve this deal
of our life.
From my section in the bank, I discovered an abandoned sum of ELEVEN MILLION
THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($11.3m) that belongs to one
of our customer who died along with his entire famillies,on 25TH JULY,2000
CONCORDE PLANE CRASH[Flight AF4590 ] with the whole passengers aboard.The
name of the deceased man was (MR.ANDREAS SCHRANNER from Munich,Germany.
You have to understand that i come acrossed this huge amount of money when
i was arranging the departmental customers file to submit to the bank managementfor
the annual audit of the year.Since the bank got information about the death
of the deceased man, the bank have been expecting his next of kin to apply
and claim his money because the bank cannot release the fund unless a person
from any foreign countries apply for the transfer of the fund as the next
of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines
but unfortunately i learnt through investigations that all his supposed
ne! xt of kin died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody
behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided
to make this business proposal to you so that you will apply to the bank
for the money to be release to you as the next of kin or relation for safety
and subsequent sharing since nobody is coming for it.
For us to achieve this businesss immediately,the percentage ratio for
sharing the fund when the bank release the fund for you must be arranged.So
i accept that thirty one percent of the fund(31%) will be for you as a foreigner
for the provision of any bank account where the bank will transfer the money
into including other of your particiaption during the process of the transfer,Sixty
percent (60%) will be for me as the person who explores the business,Four
percent of the fund (4%) will be for the expenses which may come forth during
the transfer of the fund, while 5% will be shared to the helpless
peoples around us in the world such as ,motherless babies,charity homes,disable
peoples and so on. Thereafter I will visit your country for sharing the
money according to the percentages indicated above.So for the immediate
transfer of this fund into your bank account as arranged, you must apply
first to the bank as the only existening next of kin to the deceased customer
by indicating in the application the bank account formation where you will
request the bank to transfer the fund into.So if you accept to help me in
other to achieve this great business,i will send to you through email or
by fax an application form of claim which you will fill with your account
information and send to the bank for the transaction to start immediately.
Please i would like you to know the following information.(1.) This business
is HUNDRED PERCENT RISK FREE.(2.)You will not face any questions because
the form application will bear the brief information of the deceased which
the bank may like to know.(3.) If you will follow my instruction and directives,this
transaction will be completed with a short of time.(4.)You should keep this
business CONFIDENTIAL or SECRET untill the fund get transfered into your
account.

business immediately.
