This is not stolen money rather, a discovered abandoned money belonging to one of our late customers by name MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER from Germany who died three years ago in a plane crash together with his entire family living behind his contract sum unclaimed in our bank. According to one of our banking policies which stipulate that after five to six years of unclaimed fund, the fund will automatically go into the treasury of our bank and that's why I want to use you as next of kin to the deceased customer and claim out the fund.

more easier for you to stand in as next of kin to the deceased person. It's only me and my colleagues who knew that MR.
