INLAND SECURITY AND
FINANCIAL SERVICES.
NO, 7,IDOWU TAYLOR STREET.
VICTORIA-ISLAND.
LAGOS-NIGERIA.
Dear Sir/Ma.
I am the Officer, BILL AND EXCHANGE of THE
FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT OF INLAND SECURITY AND FINANCIAL SERVICES.
I am writing to you, following the impressive information about your profile
through the Website,and I believe in your capability and reliability to
champion this opportunity.
In my department, we discovered an abandoned sum of 5 million US dollars
(Five million US dollars)in an account that belongs to one of our foreign
customers who died along with his entire family in 30th JAN, 2003 in a Auto
crash.
Since we got 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
some body applies for it as Next of Kin or relative to thedeceased as indicated
in our banking and financial policies but unfortunately we learnt that his
supposed next of kin or relation died with him in the accidentleaving no
body behind to claim the money.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I and other officials in my department
now decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money
to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent
disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money
to go intothe Bank treasury as unclaimed bills.
The Banking law and guide line here stipulates that if such money remained
unclaimed after four years, the money will be transferred into the Bank
treasury as unclaimed fund.
The request for a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned
by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and an indigene cannot stand
as next of kin to the deceased family.
We agreed that 35% of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in
respect to the provision of aforeign account, 5% will be set aside for expenses
incurred during this transaction and 60 % would be for me and my colleagues.
Thereafter,I and my colleagues will visit your country for disbursement
according to the percentage sindicated.Therefore, to enhance the immediate
transferof thisfund to you as arranged,you must apply first to the Bank
as relation or next of kin of the deceased indicating your private, telephone
and fax number foreasy and effective communication and location where the
money will be remitted.Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by
fax or e-mail The related documents regarding the transaction. fail to bring
to your notice that this transaction is hitch free and that you should not
entertain any atomof fear as all required arrangements have been made for
the transfer.
You should contact me on My Email /alternative (franklin_mordi5@yahoo.com)
as soon as you receive this letter. I decided to contact you as you have
products of interest in your part of the world where we can invest our own
percentage to avoid peoples awareness as we are civil servants.
Note that we can conclude this operation within ten banking days.Please
keep this very confidential forobvious security reasons.
Contact me for more information, all confirmable before you apply if you
want. Trusting to hear from you shortly for a detailed information which
are confirmable before you can makeup your mind to apply.If however,you
are not interested,do let me know by returm maill too as I will not contact
any body else until I hear from you.
May God be with you.
Yours faithfully,
MR FRANKLIN MORDI.
