Subject: URGENT RESPONSE NEEDED/CONFIDENTIAL.
I have a new email address!You can now email me at: philliponugha23@yahoo.co.uk
My name is Mr. Phillip Onugha, I know this proposal will come to you as a
surprise because we have not met before either physically or through any
correspondence. I have no doubt in your ability to handle this proposal
involving huge sum of money.
THE SUBJECT:
A Foreign Customer ( German property magnate -Andreas Schranner) who
died along with his entire family on 25th day of July 2000 in a plane
crash shortly after the Concorde plane took off from Paris' Charles de
Gaulle Airport in FRANCE, has substantial amount of money deposited in
this bank- UNION BANK.
For more information on MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER'S Death, Check BBC News
on--http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
Since his death, as his accounts Officer, I have made frantic efforts
to locate any of his relative, because of his deposit with our Bank.
Till date nobody has showed up to lay claim of his deposit. The Banking
guidelines/ laws here in my Country stipulates that if any customer’s
account remains unserviceable or dormant, and unclaimed after Six years,
the amount will be transferred into the Bank treasury account with the
apex bank of my country for government use. As a Banker I know what
happens to such funds, the Executive Directors, the Chairman of the Board
of Directors of this bank and top government officials will share it
amongst themselves and send down memos to us for reconciliation of the
deceased bank account.
THE PROPOSAL:
My request of a foreigner in this business is occasioned by the fact
that an Indigene of My Country cannot stand as next of kin/ beneficiary
to a deceased foreigner. It is therefore on this premise that I seek
your cooperation to stand as a relative to Late MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER.
As an Insider it is easy for both of us to provide all relevant
Information/documents that will authenticate the Claim of this money in your
favour as the only surviving relative to the late MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER.
Note that your Physical presence is not needed at the Bank, I will Guide
you on the Steps to take. The Bank will only ask for verifiable
Documents which we both shall provide. In All Fairness I am willing to share
the money with you on an Agreed Terms.
For your Information, I have done my home work very well, before
embarking on the process of moving this fund out of the bank through a Next
of Kin/ beneficiary to the Late MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER. The Funds is
much that no right thinking person can afford to let such opportunity pass
him by.
If you are ready to work with me, provide me immediately with your
contact details.
