MR. ABU SALEH.
INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL BANK{I C B},
ACCRA GHANA
I am Mr.ABU SALEH, Provincial Director International commercial Bank of
Ghana, Accra Branch. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition
for you. On June 6, 2002, an American Oil consultant/contractor with the
Obuasi Mining Corporation, Mr. Mark creek made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit
for twelve calendar months, valued at US$12.5million dollars}
(Twevle Million,five hundred thousand Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity,
I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.
After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract
employers, the Obuasi Mining Corporation that Mr. Mark creek died from an
automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he died
without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr.Mark creek
did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including
his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$12,500,000.00 is still
sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal
sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it.
According to Ghana Law, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will
revert to the ownership of the Ghana Government if nobody applies to claim
the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you to stand in as the next
of kin to Mr. Mark creek so that the fruits of this old man's labour will
not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple,
I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that
the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which will
put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the service of two
Attorneys for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary
documents and letter of probate/administration in your favour for the transfer.
A bank account in any part of the world which you will provide will then
facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of
kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio
of 70% for me and 30% for you.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be
done by the Attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the
successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please
reply immediately via the private email address below.. Upon your response,
I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will
help you understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction
would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance
to invest my share in your country.
Sincerely
ABU SALEH
