Subject: URGENT ATTENTION // Dear Friend !!!!
FROM DR ZAHRA KAZEMI.
AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING UNIT.
FIRST BANK OF NIGERIA.
Dear Friend,
Compliment Greetings With warm heart I offer my friendship,and I hope this letter will meets you in good Faith.However strange or surprising this contact might seem to you as we have not met personally or had any dealings in the past, I humbly ask that you take due consideration of its importance and immense benefit. I duly apologise for infringing on your privacy, if this contact is not acceptable to you, as I make this proposal to you as a person of integrity.
I am DR ZAHRA KAZEMI of Auditing and Accounting section of First Bank of Nigeria in West Africa with due respect and regards.
I have decided to contact you on a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end of the transaction.We had a foreign client DR H. PAUL JACOBI who deposited a huge sum of money (US$9.5million) with our bank. Eventually, this client was among the victims of EGYPT AIR BOEING 767 FLIGHT NO.990 that crashed on the 31-10-1999 in U.S.A but, since then we have not had any body coming for the claims as the next of kin. A sitaution I have monitored closely with my position in the bank.
Now, having monitored this deposit over the years after his death, and hence nobody has showed up as the next of kin for the past three and half years, I have moved the file to my private volt. I now solicit for your assistance to present you as the next of kin as every other arrangement has being concluded by me and I am only waiting for a foreigner to enable me move the fund to his account.
This does not have any risk attached to it as all the internal documentations will be handled by me. I therefore request you to confirm your interest by a return message and I will furnish you with details.
Your interest will be negotiable before we commence the project. I look forward to hearing from you. Your telephone and fax number will be need for our easy communication. For security purposes,this is my alternative e-mail(zahra_kazemi_3@hotmail.com).
Regards,
Dr Zahra Kazemi.
Auditing And Accounting Unit.
First Bank of Nigeria.
West Africa.
