DEAR Friend
I AM THE OPERATIONS MANEGER,
BILL AND EXCHANGE OF THE FOREIGN REMITTANCE
DEPARTMENT OF CITIZEN BANK LTD.
LAGOS.NIGERIA.
I AM WRITING TO YOU, FOLLOWING THE IMPRESSIVE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR PROFILE THROUGH THE WEBSITE,AND I BELIEVE IN YOUR CAPABILITY AND RELIABILITY TO CHAMPION THIS OPPORTUNITY. IN MY DEPARTMENT, WE DISCOVERED AN ABANDONED SUM OF 14 MILLION US DOLLARS (FOURTEEN MILLION US DOLLARS) IN AN ACCOUNT THAT BELONGS TO MY CLIENT (MR FREDRICK) A FOREIGNER WHO DIED ALONG WITH HIS ENTIRE FAMILY IN OCTOBER 11,1996 IN A PLANE CRASH
SINCE WE GOT INFORMATION ABOUT HIS DEATH, WE HAVE BEEN EXPECTING HIS NEXT OF KIN TO COME OVER AND CLAIM HIS MONEY BECAUSE WE CAN NOT RELEASE IT UNLESS SOME BODY APPLIES FOR IT AS NEXT OF KIN OR RELATIVE TO THE DECEASED AS INDICATED IN OUR BANKING AND FINANCIAL POLICIES,BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE LEARNT THAT HIS RELATION DIED WITH HIM IN THE ACCIDENT LEAVING NOBODY BEHIND TO CLAIM THE MONEY.
IT IS THEREFORE UPON THIS DISCOVERY THAT I AND OTHER OFFICIALS IN MY DEPARTMENT NOW DECIDED TO MAKE THIS BUSINESS PROPOSAL TO YOU AND RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU AS THE NEXT OF KIN OR RELATION TO THE DECEASED FOR SAFETY AND SUBSEQUENT DISBURSEMENT SINCE NOBODY IS COMING FOR IT AND WE DON’T WANT THIS MONEY TO GO INTO THE BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED BILLS. THE BANKING LAW AND GUIDE LINE HERE STIPULATES THAT IF SUCH MONEY REMAINED UNCLAIMED AFTER ONE AND HALF YEARS, THE MONEY WILL BE TRANSFERRED INTO THE BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED FUND.
THE REQUEST FOR A FOREIGNER AS NEXT OF KIN IN THIS BUSINESS IS OCCASIONED BY THE FACT THAT THE CUSTOMER WAS A FOREIGNER AND AN INDIGENE CANNOT STAND AS NEXT OF KIN TO THE DECEASED FAMILY.
WE AGREED THAT 30% OF THIS MONEY WILL BE FOR YOU AS FOREIGN PARTNER, IN
RESPECT TO THE PROVISION OF A FOREIGN ACCOUNT, 10% WILL BE SET ASIDE FOR EXPENSES INCURRED DURING THIS TRANSACTION AND 60 % WOULD BE FOR ME AND MY COLLEAGUES.THEREAFTER,I AND MY COLLEAGUES WILL VISIT YOUR COUNTRY FOR DISBURSEMENT ACCORDING TO THE PERCENTAGES INDICATED.
THEREFORE, TO ENHANCE THE IMMEDIATE TRANSFER OF THIS FUND TO YOU AS ARRANGED,YOU MUST APPLY FIRST TO THE BANK AS RELATION OR NEXT OF KIN OF THE DECEASED INDICATING YOUR PRIVATE, TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBER FOR EASY AND EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION AND LOCATION WHERE THE MONEY WILL BE REMITTED.
UPON RECEIPT OF YOUR REPLY, I WILL SEND TO YOU BY FAX OR E-MAIL THE TEXT OF THE APPLICATION.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 HAVEBEEN MADE FOR THE TRANSFER. YOU SHOULD CONTACT ME ON MY E-MAIL, AS SOON AS YOU RECEIVE THIS LETTER. I WILL CONTACT YOU IMMEDIATELY YOU INDECATE YOUR NTEREST IN YOUR PART OF THE WORLD WHERE WE CAN INVEST OUR OWN PERCENTAGE TO AVOID PEOPLES AWARENESS AS WE ARE CIVIL SERVANTS.
NOTE THAT WE CAN CONCLUDE THIS OPERATION WHIT OUT ANYBODY ELSE UNTIL THE MONEY GET TO YOUR ACCOUNT.MAY GOD BE WITH YOU.PLEASE REPLY ME IN MY ALTERNATIVE EMAIL :ADDRESS AS SOON AS YOU INDICATE YOUR INTEREST TO DO THIS BUISNESS WHIT US.
YOURS FAITHFULLY
MR MOHAMED NABIL
