Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Buba Diallo, the general auditor of Bank of Africa Dakar,
Senegal. I will go straight to the point of my mail to you and I do
hope you will view it as a serious and an opportunity for us both.
There is this floating fund, which is to the tune of Seven Million, six
hundred thousand American Dollars (7,600,000.00 USD), which has been
floating in an account here since 2000 after the death of the true
owner of the funds. Late Mr. Morris Thompson, an American who was a
private businessman. He unfortunately lost his life in the plane crash
of Alaska Airlines Flight 261, which crashed on January 31st
2000,including his wife and only daughter.
You can read more about the crash on visiting these sites below.

I just came across his file again when I was auditing all the credit
Account in Bank of Africa and I found out that not for once has anybody
ever come on behalf of the Late Mr. Morris Thompson as his next of kin
to claim the funds. Hence I have been monitoring this account since I
discovered this information.
In this case I have concluded to contact you, if you will be willing
to execute this transaction with me, then I will instruct you on how to
claim or stand as the next of kin to the late Mr. Morris Thompson, so
that the funds could be reverted to your overseas A/C, that is if only
you will co-operate with me and not to betray me at the end.
As soon as I confirm your interest and co-operation I will give you
the guidelines on how you can transact with the bank for the approval
of the funds to your account.
As soon as everything is been put into place for the transfer I will
apply for an annual leave to obtain a visa to travel to your country
for my share of the funds. The sharing ratio of the funds will be 50%
for me, 40% for you and the remaining 10% will be for expenses we will
incurred during the transaction.
I thank you for your understanding and I look forward to a favorable
response.
Mr. Buba Diallo.
