Subject: PLEASE GET BACK TO ME URGENTLY
FROM THE DESK OF
DR. SMITH.TRAORE
DIRECTOR GENERAL,
AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT
ECO BANK LOME,TOGO, ( www.ecobank.com ).
DBT BUILDING, 2 /20 RUE DE COMMERCE,
COMPLIMENT OF THE SEASON.
PLEASE YOUR URGENT REPLY TO THIS LETTER IS HIGHLY NEEDED.
With due respect and humanity, I write to you this Business Proposal that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end. I am Dr. Smith.Traore, the Director General of AUDITING & ACCOUNTING SECTION in the Foreign Remittance Department of ECO BANK, www.ecobank.com, in Togolaise Republic.
Following the impressive information about you which I got from Internet Web when I was searching for a reliable person with good profiles to assist me for this life business opportunity, i am also writing.
As you may like to know, During our investigation and Auditing in this Bank, my Department came across a very huge Sums of MONEY belonging to a deceased person who died on November 2001 in a plane crash and the MONEY has been dormant in His account with our Bank without any claim of the Funds in our custody either from his Family or His relation before our discovery to this development.
Since I got information about his death, I have been expecting his next of kin to come forward and claim his money because my Bank cannot release it unless somebody applies for it as NEXT OF KIN or RELATION to the deceased as indicated in (our banking guidelines) and policies, but unfortunately I learnt that all his supposed (Next of Kin) or Relation are among in a plane crash in 2001, hence nobody remains for the Property.
It is therefore upon this discovery, I 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 between both of us since nobody is coming forth and I do not want this Money to go into the (Bank treasury) as unclaimed Bill. According to our Banking policies and guideline Here, it stipulates that if such money remained Unclaimed after five years, the money will Automatically be transferred into the Bank treasury as Unclaimed fund.
The said amount was (US$28.5 Million),(EIGHT MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS). Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put claim over this Funds as well as withdrawing it by you as the bonafide Next of Kin/relation to the deceased, get the required Approval and Transfer this money to any Foreign Account has been put in place by me and directives and needed information will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist Me and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity.
In fact I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this country as a civil servant, we are not allowed to operate a foreign account and would eventually raise an eyebrows on my side during the time of transfer because I work in this bank. This is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the Next of Kin with affidavit of trust of oath to the Bank and also present a foreign account where he will need the money to be re-transferred into.
I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free. On smooth conclusion of this transaction, I am ready to give you 30% out of this money upon receipt of the total monies into your Account in respect to the provision of a (foreign account), 5% out of the Money will be share 50-50 after removing any expenses incurred by you or by me during the curse of the transaction while 65% will be for me.
Please, you have been advised to keep top secret as I am still in service and intend to retire from service after I conclude this deal with you. I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this bank until you confirm the money in your account and ask me to come down to your country for subsequent sharing of the Funds according to above mapped percentage for and further investment, either in your country or any country you advice me to invest in.
All other necessary information of this business and Text of Application for Claiming the Money will be sent to you when I hear from you.
I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible through my private e-mail, stating your wish in this deal.
Yours faithfully,
Dr. Smith.Traore
