Subject: INVERSTMENT
DEAR SIR/MA
I am ROLAND SAIKO the Director in charge of Auditing and Acounting
section of Eco bank Ghana in West Africa and also Chairman of Investigating
and Auditing Department of this bank. With due respect, and regard I have
decided to contact you on a Business Transaction that will be very
beneficial to both of us and our families.
During my Investigation and Auditing in this Bank, i came across a very
huge sum of money belonging to one Mr. Aurther Nick a foreigner, who died
on November 1st 1999 in a car crash overseas and the fund has been dormant
in his account with this Bank without any claim of the fund in our custody
either by his family or relations because he did not indicate any next of
kin to this account incase of death such as this.
Although personally, I keep this information secret within myself and to
enable the whole plan and idea to be profitable and successful during the
time of execution. The said amount is $10,000,000,00 USD ( TEN . Million
United States Dollars).
Meanwhile as a Senior Staff in this Bank, and the Director of Auditing and
Accounting, I have in my possession some of the necessary documents to
perfect this deal by making you the bonafide next of kin whom this money
will be transferred into his account. I need your assistance and
co-operation to get this deal done. Because as a foreigner, you stand a
better position to be presented through documentation as the next of kin
since the deceased is also a foreigner. This is the reason why I could not
do this deal alone as a Ghanaian and a Blackman as well.
. On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 45% of
the total sum as gratification, while 54% will be for me . Please be
advised to keep this transaction a "top secret" as i am still in service
and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you. And
i assure you that this transaction will not last more that 10 working days
and you will confirm the money in your account.
I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this Bank until you confirm
the money in your account. And ask me to come to your country for
subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated
and further investment, either in your country or any country you advice us
to invest in. All other necessary vital information will be sent to you when
I hear from you.
I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible stating your wish in this
context. I am expecting your urgent reply as soon as you receive this
message.
it may also interest you to note that during our just concluded auditing
execise by the year ended 31st december 2005 the bank is thinking of
confiscating this funds since nobdy is coming for it within the middle of
this finacial year
