Subject: PROPOSAL
PROPOSALFrom: Dr Jonathan Solum.Reply to: drjsolumj222@yahoo.fr
Dear sirI am a staff of Bank Of Africa Benin(BAB), Cotonou, Benin Republic. I will give you other important information if I receive a positive reply from you.I work in the operations dept where I serve as account officer to numerous customers. One of the customers whom I worked as his account officer was a wealthy Diamond Merchant from Sierra Leone. He lost his family in the war. He was lucky to escape alive and came to this country with his wealth intact. Unfortunately he died last year.Because this man was good to me when he was alive, I took it upon myself to his country last month while i was on my Annual Leave, to see if I could locate any of his close relations . On reaching there I discovered that his only surviving Uncle died a few months back from Bullet Wound Infections. I sponsored this trip on my own and nobody in My bank knew I was undertaking the journey so I did not present any official report of my findings in Sierra Leone.Now there are two things I could do
with regards to the dead mans money. First,as his accounts officer, I could formally notify the bank authorities that the man is dead and has no next of kin. In this case the money would be forfeited to the government after some time. As a matter of fact this is the proper thing I am supposed to do.Another thing I can do is to arrange for someone else, a foreigner, to act as the next of kin to the deceased man so that he will claim the money.This is the option that I want to take to help anybody that accepts to assist me and myself since the money actually is public fund due to the fact that my friend was a close ally to the late brutal military president that looted government treasury and that is why I have chosen to do it.I want you to be my partner. All you would have to do is act as the next of kin of the deceased and the whole money in the account will be transferred to your account. As the accounts officer to the late man, I have all the necessary documents that you
will require to claim the money in the account.The total money in the account is USD17 million. We are going to share the fund on a mutual agreed percentage.Yours faithfully,Dr Jonathan SolumReply to: drjsolumj222@yahoo.fr
