BANK OF AFRICA (BOA) .

Courtesy of business opportunity, I take liberty anchored on strong desire
to solicit for your assistance on this mutual beneficiary and risk free
transaction with you, which I hope you give urgent attention. To be precise,
My name is DR DAVID FERNANDEZ, BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER BANK OF AFRICA
(BOA) . COTONOU BENIN REPUBLIC ANNEX-WEST AFRICA.
In my department, we discovered an abandoned sum of US$ 22.3 Million (Twentytwo
Million Three Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in an account that
belongs to (Mrs. JEAN ALLEN, of America) who perished in the plane crash
of 31 October 1999 [with Egyptian Airplane 990] with other passengers aboard
as you can comfirm it yourself through this website: <http://www.greatdreams.com/PassEAir990.htm>
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next
of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless
somebody applied for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated
in our banking procedures, but unfortunately to no avail and nobody has
come forward to claim the money.
Therefore, upon this discovery that I and other two officials in my department
now decide to establish a cordial business relationship with you, hence
my contacting you.
We want you to purportedly present your good self as the next of kin or
relation of the deceased so that we can release the fund (money) into your
account for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for
it and again we do not want the money to go into the government account
as unclaimed bill .The banking law and procedures herein stipulates that
any account(s) abandoned or dormant for a period of some years is subject
to be closed and all money contained therein will be forfeited to the government
treasury account. Now it is being speculated that the above sum will be
transferred into government treasury account as unclaimed fund on or before
MARCH 2005. The reason for you to present your good self as the next of
kin is occasioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner.
Mode of Sharing After the successful completion of the transfer is as follows,
for the role you will be expected to play in the whole exercise, we have
agreed to give you thirty (30%)of the total sum,and 10% has been set aside
for the expenses we are going to encounter by both parties in the process
of this transaction and the remaining 60% shall be for my colleagues and
I. In support of the aforementioned, you are urged to reply this letter
indicating your readiness and interest to participate in the business.
After your reply, you will be advised on the next step afterwards. I quite
believe that you will protect our interest by keeping this business top
secret and confidential. Your interest will be equally protected, as we
must maintain maximum confidentiality. Trust to hear from you on the above
THROUGH MY PRIVATE EMAIL ADDRESS (david_fernandez50@voila.fr)
NOTE:IF YOU HAVE TO ASSIST ME IN THIS TRANSACTION YOU SHOULD HAVE TO KEEP
ULTMOST SECRECY TO EFFECT GOOD CONCLUSSION OF THIS TRANSACTION UNTIL YOU
CONFIRM THE FUND INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.
Count on your earliest reply.
Thanks
Yours faithfully
DR DAVID FERNANDEZ.
