RE: TRANSFER OF $126,000.000.00 USD (ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX MILLION
DOLLAR)
Dear Friend,
Do not be perplexed with this note. It's all about soliciting your attention
to transfer the sum of {$126Million USD}, We will start the first transfer
with twenty six million [26,000,000.00] upon successful transaction without
any disappoint from your side, we shall re-apply for the payment of the
remaining amount to your account.
As an Auditor General (AG), an equivalent of American Certified Public
Accountant {C.P.A} and a personal account officer to the Deceased, I believe
that we can do this business without any hitches, if only you will be
trusted and then follow simple instructions for a smooth success of this
business.
We have a solid master plan/arrangements on how best to actualize this
objective. So, we are not trying to experiment with a transaction of this
natureand magnitude, for such an opportunity will not/never ever come my way
again in my lifetime. Our fears now is if this money will be safe in your
hand/custody pending my physical arrival in your country for sharing and
investments. You can provide either an existing bank account or set up a new
Bank a/c immediately to receive this money. Even an empty a/c without any
money in it can serve to receive this money, as long as you will emain
honest to me till the end of this important business, trusting in you and
believing in
God that you will never let me down either now or in future. If we agree and
never to disagree, you will stand to get 30%, 5% for the Orphanage,
Poor/Less Privileged, 5% for local and International expenses incurred by
both parties on the course of transfer, while the balance of 60% will be for
me. Note: The deceased died without oral or ritten "WILL" and without any
"HEIR". The deceased is a foreigner and because he is a foreigner, this fund
cannot be released to an indigenous bank a/c here, IT MUST BE A
FOREIGNER WITH A VALID INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT. So it is based on this that
you are contacted.
As you know INHERITANCE is not a crime all over the world,but may be a crime
only when you did not follow the Rules of the International Law of
Inheritance. In this
transaction we shall follow strictly all the rules of the International Law
of Inheritance and obtain all the necessary transaction documents from the
appropriate authorities to prove that the inheritance/fund is genuine.
Waiting for your positive response URGENTLY through my private email

Regards,
Dr. Ato Adolph.
