Subject: I NEED YOUR TRUST
FROM MR.TONY EZE
INTERCONTINENTAL BANK NIGERIA PLC
33 CREEK ROAD APAPA
LAGOS NIGERIA.
Dear Friend,
I am Mr.Tony Eze, an accountant with INTERCONTINENTAL BANK NIGERIA PLC
(I.C.B) I am writing this letter to ask for your support and cooperation to
carry out this business opportunity in my department We discovered an
abandoned sum of ($10 million u.s. dollars) in an account that belongs to
one of our foreign customer Late Engineer David , who died in the Ikeja bomb
blast of the 27th January 2002. my client, his wife, and their two children
were involved in the Ikeja bomb blast, unfortunately they lost their lives
in the process of the bomb blast.
Since we heard of his death, we have been expecting his next-of-kin to come
over and put claims for his money as the heir, because the bank's management
cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as
the next-of-kin to the deceased depositor as indicated in our banking
guidelines. Unfortunately, neither their family member nor distant relative
has ever appeared to claim the said fund. Upon this discovery, I and other
officials in my department have agreed to make business with you and release
the total amount into your account as the heir of the fund since no one came
for it or discovered his maintained account with our bank, otherwise the
fund will be returned to the banks treasury as unclaimed fund.
We have agreed that our ratio of sharing will be as stated thus; 35 % for
you as foreign partner, 65 % for us the officials in my
department.Upon the successful completion of this transfer, I and one of my
colleagues will come to your country and mind our share. It is from our 65 %
that we intend to import Agricultural Machineries into our country as a way
of recycling the fund. To commence this transaction,we require you to
immediately indicate your interest by a return e-mail and enclose your
private contact telephone number, fax for constnt communications, you will
be required also to file an application of claims to the appropriate
department for necessary approvals before the transfer can be made.
I look forward to receiving your prompt response for oral clarifictions.
Mr.Tony Eze(I.C.B)
