Subject: NEXT OF KIN
MR GREG JOHNSON
ECO-BANK GROUP PLC.
LAGOS-NIGERIA.
Dear Friend
I am the manager of bill and exchange Foreign Operations Department of
ECO-BANK GROUP PLC, In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of(30.5
million dollars (thirty million five hundred thousand United States Dollars)in
an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along side
with his entire family in November 1999 in the ADC plane crash.
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his
relation to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless
somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated
in our banking guidelines.
Unfortunately we learnt that all his immediate family members died
along with him at the plane crash leaving nobody with the knowledge of this
fund behind for the claim since the account is his private account. It is
therefore upon this discovery that I and two other officials in this department
now decided to make business with you and release the money to you as the
next of kin to the deceased for safety keeping and subsequent disbursement
since nobody is coming for it and we don?t want this money to go back into
Federal Government account as unclaimed bill.
The banking law and guidelines here stipulates that such money remained
after six years the money will be transferred into banking treasury as
unclaimed funds and will further be handed over to government. The request
of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact
that the customer was a foreigner and a Nigerian cannot stand as next of
kin to aforeigner.
We agreed that 25% of this money will be for you as foreign partner
15%has been set aside for every expenses that will come up in the proses,
while the balance will be for my colleagues and I.I will visit your country
for the disbursement according to the percentages indicated above once this
money gets into your account. Please be honest to me.
Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of the funds to you as
arranged,you must apply first to my bank as next of kin of the
deceased. Upon receipt of your response I will send to you a text of
the application with the name of the deceased and hiscountry and other
information about him.
Note this transaction is confidential and risk free. As soon as you
receive this mail you should contact me immediately.I will be waithing to
receive your quick response through this my private email address:grg_jhnsn@yahoo.com
Best regards
Greg A.Johnson
