Subject: MAIL FROM MR RICHARD
ROYAL FINANCE AND TRUST BANK,
RUE CLUB DE FIFADJI,
1551 B.P. 00235 COTONOU,
BENIN REPUBLIC.
TEL +22997312310
Compliments Of The Day,
Permit me to introduce myself to you. My name is Mr.Rchard
Mboma a top Management Official of the above Finance
Corporation in Cotonou,Benin Republic I came to know about
you in my private search for a reliable person/company to
handle an important assingment on behalf of my Colleagues
and myself.
PROPOSITION: An Australian Engr MICHEAL ALLEN, a prosperous
oil\Gold merchant had in our Bank the sum of $48.5million in
a domiciliary account.Unfortunately, he was involved in a
ghastlymotor accident in Benin Republic,which lead to his
untimely demise in June 2003. Efforts had been made by the
management of my bank through the Australian Embassy to
contact any of the deceased children but to no avail. We
later discovered that he had no children.Given the skeletal
information available to the bank, it has so far been
impossible to reach any of the relatives.
The situation left for the Management is to declare the
deceased account dormant and revert the funds to trading for
interest to the Bank. In order to avoid this development, my
Colleagues and I now seek your approval to have you stand as
a distant relative to Engr MICHEAL ALLEN,so that the money
would be released to you.All documents and proofs to enable
you get the money will be carefully packaged once we receive
your consent on this proposal.I shall apply for a leave as
soon as the funds get into your reliable account to come to
your country for sharing and investments which you will
assist me in doing.
May I assure you that this is safe and risk-free, as we have
taken care of all necessary modalities to ensure a
hitch-free movement. I have the authority of my partners
involved in this assignment to propose that should you be
willing to assist us in this, your share would be 30 %.I
have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not
disappoint me. As soon as I hear from you I will send to you
all the evidence and proof.
Best Regards,
Mr.Richard Mboma.
