Subject: DEAR
Mr. Nana Yaw
Rue 14: Av. du Chevalier
Appt. 17
Treichville -Abidjan

Tel + 225 0825 6289
Dear,
I am Mr.Nana Yaw,the Offshore Payment Officer at the (Hallmark Bank côte d'Ivoire Abidjan) and close friend to Late Mr.Mr James Cummings,from your country. In my files I discovered that my customer abandoned sum of $8.5 Million (Eight million Five Hundred Thousand United states Dollars) in our Bank, Hallmark Bank Côte d'Ivoire Abidjan. On a record before my department I was made to know that him and his family were involved in a car accident along Kumasi-Aburi Express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives. My office has been expecting his next of kin to come over and make claim of this money which is currently deposited in our custody because the Hallmark Bank Côte d'Ivoire Abidjan cannot release it directly to me or any other person unless somebody applies for the release of it as next of kin to the deceased as indicated in our mutual agreement (Between the Deceased and the Hallmark Bank Côte d'Ivoire Abidjan)unfortunately his
supposed next of kin died along with him at the Fatal auto crash.
It therefore upon discovery the ugly news that I now decided to make business with you to direct you on how to apply with this office (Hallmark Bank Côte d'Ivoire Abidjan) to assist in repatriating the money left behind by my friend before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the Bank. The request of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that my customer was a foreigner and the next of kin died been the wife died alongside with him and also a citizen of Côte d'Ivoire Abidjan cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives ,I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you are from the same country so that the proceeds of this account valued at $8.5 million Dollars can be paid to you and then you and l can share the money. 60% to me and 40% to you.
Moreover,in the banking industry chances or opportunities like this are common but not heard. People put their monies in banks and some of these accounts are either coded or confidentially operated, therefore, when such people die what do you think that happens to these monies when nobody comes for their claims? Well, this is one of the numerous avenues good monies are made within and amongst the bankers. Normally, when something like this happens in the bank, it is reported to the management.
The Management can only wait for some time for a next of kin to show up
without publishing it or making it public Just because of their selfish
interest.Therefore, it is not published and the bank only waits for the heir to show up as the availability of such funds are expected to be in the late "customers will" which would be the only source of knowledge of it by anybody who is entitled to such estate.
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us seeing this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law.
Please endeavour to contact me immediately.Expecting a positive response soonest.
Yours Sincerely,
Mr Nana Yaw.
