Dear Sjaak Fontijn ,
I am contacting you over the claim of your late uncle's fund which was
deposited with the Bank Of Africa,(B.A). I must solicit your confidence in
this claim, by virtue of it's nature as being utterly confidential and top
Secret.
Though I know that contact of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive
and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well since I know
everything about your late uncle's fund with the bank. I have decided to
contact you due to the urgency of this matter. Let me start by introducing
myself properly to you.
I am Barrister Luc Adjaho the legal adviser to your late uncle, Engr
E.V.Fontijn (Snr.) an oil Merchant with the Federal Government of Togo
Republic, until his sudden death few years ago in an Kenya Air Bus
(A310-300) Flight KQ430, he Banked with Bank Of Africa, Lome- Togo and had a
closing balance as at the end of September, 2003 worth US$ 6,500,000.00 (Six
Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars).
The bank now expects the Next of Kin to come forward as the new Beneficiary
in view of his death. Efforts have been made by the Bank, to get in touch
with any of the Deceased family relatives, but they have met with little or
no success at all. And the deceased being a foreigner, that is why I have
decided to contact you so that you can put up claim over his outstanding
balance with the bank valued at US$6.5M only.
Now that the management under the influence of the bank Governor and Members
of the Board of directors, reaching me that an arrangement has been made for
the fund to be declared as unclaimed and in order to avert this negative
development, i deem it fit to contact you so that you can put up a claim
since your last name is the same with my late client as there was no will
drawn before his untimely death.
All documents and prove to enable you get this fund will be carefully
worked out by me for this claim. I have secured from the probate an order of
Mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries, and more so I am
assuring you that this claim is 100% risk free. Now it is left for you

this claim. I hope to hear from you soon.
Yours Sincerely,
