Subject: Your Urgent Response Needed.
Dear Sir,
For the purpose of confidentiality I have reserved some vital information’s pending when we have established strong relationship. Please kindly allow me use this medium to introduce myself and also brief you of a benefiting monetary transaction.
I worked with a reputable bank here in Ghana as a Telex Operator (Foreign Remittance Department) in the cause of my work I and my colleague who is still in service handled a lot of international remittances for corporate businessmen and government agencies who prefer to run SYNDICATE ACCOUNTS for sending out huge sums of money running into millions of dollars. Especially government officials who do not want any trace of their monies which they got from over invoicing of foreign contracts and kick backs.
During this cause I and my colleague manipulated on the transmission codes terminal in which on any such huge sum transaction we remove a certain amount to ourselves into a secret account we created for this purpose in the bank. These have been going on for the past three years now. There was a major shake up and I was retired from the service and now it remains my colleague who knows about this. We have in this secret account USD$8.5 million and since I am no more in the bank I have resolved with my colleague to seek for a foreign collaborator who we will use his/her contacts to pull out the money from the bank hence it can only be done through the international branch of the bank and that is where you comes in.
Subject Matter; if you will assist us in this task kindly sends us the following;
(1)Your full name and address.
(2)Contact Telephone and fax.
(3)You will open a new bank account for this transaction and send us the details which we will use for the processing of the money from the bank.
(4)We have allocated 30% to you once you have cooperated and trustworthily receive the money into your account.
(5)Before we start up we will sign a mutual agreement to be notarized in the high court Ghana . This will serve as a bond and agreement for the parties involved. And lastly once the approvals are given for the money to leave Ghana I will travel down to meet you for us to cash the money together and subsequent sharing. You will also assist us to look for business areas to invest after we have collected our share.
Hope you do understand our situation. Please reply through: Bonjems@jumpy.it
Respectfully,
Boniface Njemanze.
