UNION BANK OF NIGERIA PLC
LAGOS-NIGERIA.
Dear Friend,
I am Dr.Simon David, of Bills and Exchange at the foreign
remitance department of the Union Bank of Nigeria Plc. I am
writing this letter to ask for your suppport and
co-operation to carry out this business opportunity in my
department.I discovered an abandoned sum of $20.565m(twenty
million, five hundred and sixty five thousand united states
dollars only) in Account Number 11008734290 status of
account fixed deposit account, that belongs to one of our
foreign customer Mr.Lee won C.E.O.,WONG LEE CONSTRUCTION
COMANY NIGERIA LIMITED,Who died along with his entire
family in November 2002 in a plane crash. Since we got
information about his death we can not release the money
unless somebody applies for it as the next of kin or
relation to the deceased.As indicated in our banking
guidelines.
Unfortunately,neither the family members nor the relations
have appeared to claim this money.At this discovery,I
decided to do business with you and release the money to
you as the next of kin or relation of the deceased for
safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming
for it and I don't want this money to go into the bank
trasury as an unclaimed debt.The banking law and guidelines
of Union Bank of Nigeria Plc stipulates that if such money
remained unclaimed for a period of Six (6) years it will be
transfered into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund.the
need for a foreigner as next of kin in this siness is
occasioned by the fact that the costomer was foreigner and
as a Nigerian cannot stand as his next of kin or heir.I
agreed that 30% of the money will be for you as foreign
partner,thereafter I will visit your country for
disbursement according to the percentage indicated.
Therefore to enable the lmmediate transfer of the fund to
you as indicated.You must apply to the bank as relation or
next of kin of the deceased.Indicating your bank number an
indicating where the money will be remitted.Upon receipt of
reply.I will send to you the text of application as soon as
you receive this letter you should reach me through my
above e-mail immediately and indicate this informations
below:
1.Your full name and address
2.Your telephone and fax number for easy communication.
3.Your company's name and address.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by email,
the Certificate of Deposit and the application of Claim.
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this
transaction is hitch-free and that you should not entertain
any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been
made for the movement of the money.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive
this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
