("REMITTANCE OF $22.85 MILLION U.S.A DOLLARS
CONFIDENTIAL IS THECASE")
Compliment Of The Season,
On a very good day. I am (George kabore),asenior staff in file department in
African developent bank (ADB).I gotyour contact from a tourist from your
country who was in this country and transacted a business with our bank.
When i was searching for aforeign partner i assured of your capability and
reliability to champion this businees opportunity when i prayed to God or
Allah about you.In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $ 22.85
million U.S.A dollars . In an account that belongs to one ofour foreign
customer who died along with his entire family in Monday 31st July 2000 in
a plane crash. Since we got information about his death, we have been
expecting his next of kin to come over and claim hismoney because we can not
release it unless somebody applies for it asnext of kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines, but unfortunately we learnt
that all his supposed next ofkin or relation died along side with him at the
plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that Iand one official in my department
now decided to make this businness 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 guideline
here stipulates that if such money
remained unclamed after five 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 occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner,
and a Burkinabe cannot standas next of kin to a foreigner. We agree that 30
% of this money will befor you as foreign partner, in respect to the
provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be set aside for expenses incured
during the business and 60 % would be for me and my woman colleague. There
after I and my colleague will visit your country for disbursement according
to the percentages indicated.
Therefore to enable the immediate trnansfer ofthis fund to you as arranged,
you must apply first to the bank asrelations or next of kin of the deceased
indicating your bank name, yourbank account number, your private telephone
and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where the
money will be remitted.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or emailthe text of
the application I will not fail to bring to your notice that this
transaction is hitch free and that you should not entertain any atom of
fear as all required arrangements have been made forthetransfer.
You should contact me on this email( (00226-76 08 66 92)immediately as soon
as you receive this letter. Trusting to hear fromyou immediately.
Your's faithfully,
George Kabore
POST SCRITUM:You have to keep everything secret as to enable the transfer to
move very smoothly in to the account you will prove to the bank.As you
finished reading this letter call me immediately so that we discuss very
well over this business.Please call me and inform me that you received my
mail, because i don't go to net always
