From Mr.Anderson M.
Box 1287 Port Shepstone
Chaka -South Africa
Compliment,
I am Mr Anderson mako.,one of the Directors in charge
of Auditing and Accounting section in Africa Development Bank in South Africa
and also Chairman of Investigating and Auditing Department of this Bank.With
due respect and regard,I have decided to contact you on a Business Transaction
that will be very beneficial to both of us and our families in future.
During our Investigation and Auditing in this Bank, my
department came across a very huge sum of money
belongingto one Deceased Mr.Morris Thompson 61
years,of Fairbanks,Alaska America who died on January
31st 2000 with Alaska Airlines Flight along with his
wife Thelma,and his daughter,Sheryl,on Alaska Airlines
flight 261 returning from a vacation in Mexico if you
want to know more about the man himself,i will send
the site and everything about him upone your response.
As 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 because he did not
indicate any next of kin to this account incase of
death such as these.
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 is U.S $25.5m (Twenty
Five Million,five hundred thousand United States
Dollars).
As it may interest you to know,I got your impressive
information through one of my good friends who works
with Chamber of commerce on foreign business relations
here in Exbittion center here in south Africa though I
did not disclose the deal to him.
Meanwhile as a Senior Staff in this bank,and the
Director of Auditing and Accounting,I have in my
possession all the necessary documents to perfect this
deal by making you the bonafide next of kin/Partner
whom this money will be transferred into your account.
I need your assistance and co-operation to get this
deal done. Because as a foreigner,you stand a better
position to be presented through documentation as the
next of kin/Partner since the deceased is also a
foreigner,this is the reason why I could not do this
deal alone as a African and a Blackman as well.
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 35% of the total
sum as gratification,while 1% will be set aside to
take care of expenses that may arise during the time
of transfer and also telephone bills,while 64% will be
for me and my partners.
Please,you have been advised to keep this "Top
Secret"as we are still in service and intend to retire
from service after we conclude this deal with you.And
I assure you that this transaction will not last more
than 10 working days and you confirm the money in your
account.
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 vital 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.I
am expecting your urgent reply as soon as you receive
this message.Please send your response urgent.
(God bless you And your family )

Mr Anderson Mako.
