Dear Sir/Madam,
With due honor and respect, I introduce myself to you for a better
relationship. I am Mr Charles Musengi AUDITOR FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF SOUTH
AFRICA(F.N.B). Your contact is courtesy of Business online network via
Internet as I decided to contact you for this beneficial transaction that is
100% risk free.
During auditing, verifications/investigations in our bank at the end of last
fiscal (financial) year, I discovered the sum of (US$17M SEVENTEEN MILLION
UNITED STATES DOLLARS in a dormant account belonging to MR ALLAN . P. SEAMAN
,a German international businessman who died along with his family in the
November 5th,2001 plane crash in Abidjan west Africa. Our investigations
revealed no survival or NEXT OF KIN/RELATIONS for claims as we have long
been expecting someone to forward applications for claims as it applies to
our banking .
Regulations. Information / verifications from reliable sources confirmed
that his supposed “NEXT OF KINS” died with him in the crash. Hence this for
your perusals.
However, I kept this information (SECRET) confidential within my
jurisdiction to enable us submit claims and transfer this fund through
trustworthy person whom we shall present to our bank as the BONAFIDE “NEXT
OF KIN” to the deceased. We intend to credit this fund into any of your
nominated (designated) offshore bank account for investments.
Meanwhile, all domestic arrangements for claims has been put in place
awaiting your acceptance to participate. I will give you directives and all
needed information as soon as I receive your positive response.
Kindly understand that we could not carry out this on our own as based on
the simple facts that we are civil servants and secluded from operating
foreign account and too, it will raise eyebrows on our side in terms of
transfer being staff of the bank. Moreover, this fund belongs to a foreigner
and demands same as next of kin to claim it. Hence your contact for
successful operation.
My colleagues and I has resolved to offering you 25% of the total sum as
commission, We will invest 70% of our share in your country provided it is
profit oriented. 5% of the total fund will be set aside to re-emburse all
expenses to be incurred in the course of running this transaction such as
telephone and other minor expenses. I am assuring you of a smooth and
successful transaction provided you display maturity and observe
confidentiality.
And it will interest you to know that the Reserve Bank(Apex) will approve
credit of this fund into your account as contract payment to abstain you
from all queries regarding the source (originality) of this fund and will
provide you (beneficiary) with contractual (data) details to certify your
bank or government if the need arises. Therefore, be kind to clarify the
following for my consideration:
1. Can your account accommodate this fund in your local bank without
government intervention or do you have an account outside your country where
you may consider safe for this fund ?.
2. What are taxation in your country like as I desire a low/free tax zone?.
3. What are the interest rates on long/short term fixed deposit in your
local banks?.
4. What other lucrative investments would you suggest as I intend banking,
real estate and hotels if they are good business venture in your Country?.
5. Can you be able to make residential documents and purchase a house for me
and my family to relocate and settle in your country after the transaction?
Kindly indicate your private telephone and fax number for more effeicient
communication.
Looking forward to your anticipated urgent response.
Best regards,
Mr Charles Musengi
