FROM THE DESK OF THE MANAGER BILL AND EXCHANGE DEPARTMENTBANQUE GENERALE
TOGO16 RUE DE COMMERCE,LOME-TOGO.
Please forgive my effontery, if this massage comes to you as a surprise
and if it might offend you with out your prior consent and writing through
this channel.I am PRINCE ABUDLAZEEZ SIDI MOHAMMED, the manager of bills
and exchanges at the foreign remittance Department of BANQUE GENERALE TOGO
LOME TOGO with due respect and regard. I have decided to contact you on
a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the
end of the transaction .During our investigation and auditing in this bank,
my department came across a very huge sum of money belonging to late (MR
.V. LLOYD) who died on november 1998 in a plane crash and the fund has been
dormant in his account with this Bank without any claim of the fund in our
custody either from his family or relation before our discovery to this
development. Although personally, I keep this information secret within
myself and partners to enable the whole plans and idea be Profitable and
successful during the time of execution. The said amount was US$9 million
united states dollars.As it may interest you to know, I got your impressive
information through my good friends who works with chamber of commerce on
foreign business relations here in Lome- Togo. It is him who recommended
your person to me to be viable and capable to champion a business of such
magnitude without any problem.Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put
claim over this fund as the bonafide next of kin to the deceased,get the
required approval and transfer this money to a foreign account has been
put in place and directives and needed information will be relayed to you
as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist us and also
benefit your self to this great business opportunity.As we plan the transfer,the
bank will first transfer $4 million US dollars and upon a suscessful transfer
of the first $4 million without any disapportment from your side,then the
bank will transfer the rest fund into your account which $5million US dollars.In
fact I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this
country as a civil servant, we are not allowed to operate a foreign account
and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of transfer
because I work in this bank.This is the actual reason why it will require
a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin with
affidavit of trust of oath to the Bank and also present a foreign account
where he will need the money to be re-transferred into on his request as
it may be after due verification and clarification by the correspondent
branch of the bank where the whole money will be remitted from to your own
designation bank account.I will not fail to inform you that this transaction
is 100% risk free. On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be
entitled to 30% of the total sum as gratification,while 10% will be set
aside to take care of expenses that may arise during the time of transfer
and also telephone bills, while 60% will be for me and my partners.Please,
you have been advised to keep top secret as we are still in service and
intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you.I will
be monitoring the whole situation here in this bank until you confirm the
money in your account. and ask us to come down to your country for subsequent
sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further
investment, either in your country or any country you advice us to invest
in. All other necessary information will be sent to you when I hear from
you.I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible stating your wish in
this deal.
Yours faithfully,
ABUDLAZEEZ SIDI MOHAMMED
