Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2005 16:59:00 +0200
Subject: CONFIDENCIAL.
dear beloved.
I am Mr. khlid faza credit officer of the Africa Continental bank plc. I have a suggestion for you.
Before the U.S and Iraqi war one of our customer Mr. abdu laziz. who was a business man made a numbered of fixed deposit for 19 calendar months, with a value of twentyTwo millions Three Hundred Thousand United State Dollars ($22.3 million USD) in my branch. Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, even during the war early this year. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that the Man and his family had been killed during the war in bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Mr. Abdu Laziz, did not declare next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. He confided in me as his account manager that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. Now, twenty Two millions Three Hundred Thousand United State Dollars is lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my
country at the expiration of three years the funds will revert to the ownership to the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. My suggestion to you is that I will like you to stand as the next of kin to Mr. Abdu Laziz, so that you will be able to receive his funds.
WHAT IS TO BE DONE:
I want you to know that every arrangement have been perfected to ensure a successful transaction. I have an attorney ready to prepare the necessary document that will make you a legalize next of kin to Mr. Abdu Laziz, All that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can commence his job.
After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favor for the move of the funds to an offshore account that will be provided by you.
There is no risk involved at all in this matter as we are going to adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue.Should you be interested in anyway please send me your contact informations full names Telephone number to enable us discuss further more about the percentage to be shared.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated and you can contact me on this secured email:mrkhalid_faza2003@yahoo.com
