Greetings to you,
This letter must come to you as a big surprise, but Ibelieve it is only a
day that people meet
and become great friends and business partners. My name is Mr Amoussou Paul,
An Accountant
working in a bank here in Republic De Benin West Africa.I write you this
proposal in good faith,
believing that I can trust you with the information I am about to reveal
to you. Like I said,
I have a transaction that will benefit both of us, as your assistance is
required as a foreigner.
I use to head the Accounts department in my bank head office, but last December
I was transfer
to one of our Bank branch in Cotonou who passed on, so that was how I became
the present head
accountant in the bank , during when I was auditing
all the account and I discovered a fortune .As I resumed duty, I discovered
an account with
total sum of $25,500,000 million that has not been operated on for the past
some years. From
my investigation, I found out that this account belongs to one Late Mr.Bunten,
Wendy, U.S.big
time Oil dealer, who unfortunately lost his life in Korean Air Flight 801,
which crashed in Guam
on Wednesday August 6,1997 You will read more about the site;
NB : for your perusal you can view this website

I have kept a close monitoring of the account since then and nobody has come
forward to claim
the money as next of kin to the late Mr Bunten Wendy meaning that no one
is aware of the account.
I cannot directly take out this money without the help of a foreigner and
that is why I am
contacting you for an assistance to claim the funds and share it with me.
As the head accountant
bank my bank branch, I have the power to influence the release of the funds
to any foreigner
that comes up as the next of kin to the account, with the correct information
concerning the
account, which I shall give you.
I am seeking your co-operation to present you as the next of kin to the account.
There is
practically no risk involved, the transaction will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement
that will protect you from any breach of law.
If you accept to work with me, I want you to state howyou wish us to share
the funds in
percentage, so that both parties will be satisfied. Contact me as soon as
you receive this
message if you feel we can work together, so we can go over the details.
Thanking you in advance and may God bless you.Please, treat with utmost confidentiality.
I wait your urgent response.
Regards,
Mr Amoussou Paul
