Subject: YOUR URGENT RESPONSE IS NEEDED.
Dear Friend,
My Name is Francise Konan,a credit officer with the one of the leading
(Finance Trust House) here in Republic of Benin,Cotonou. In my
department i discovered an abandoned funds $18,000.000.00 (Eighteen
million United states dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our
foreign customer (Mr. Andreas Johnson} who died along with his entire
family in July 2000 in a plane crash.
Since i got information about his death, I have been expecting his next
of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unless some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking guidlings and laws but
unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or his entile
family died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind
for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this
business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of
kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement
since nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money to go into
the bank treasury as unclaimed bill.
The banking law and guidline here stipulates that if such money
remained unclaimed after Eight years, the money will be transfered into
the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next
of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that the customer
was a foreigner and an Indigene cannot stand as next of kin to a
foreigner.
Your percentage will be declare to you as soon as you indicate your
interest. I will visit your country for disbursement according to the
percentage indicated .
Therefore, to enable the immediate move of this fund to you
arranged,you must apply first to the bank as relation or next of kin of
the deceased indicating.
1.Your full name and address
2.Your telephone and fax number for easy communication.
3.Your company's name and address if any.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text
of the application .
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is
hitch-freeand that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all
required arrangements have been made for the movement of the money.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.
anxiously awaiting to hear from you immediately .
access to your reply.
Yours Faithfully,
Francise Konan
