Subject: Compliment of the season!!!
Dear Friend. I am Mr Doussou Roland, manager audit account department of
African Development Bank(A.D.B.) In my department we discovered an abandoned
sum of NINTEEN MILLION, THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS
($19,300,000.00 ) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer
who died along with his entire family in an aeroplane crash.He died in the
December 25th Benin plane crash. (Here is the aircrash
site/ttp://http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/26/benin.crash/index.htmlSince
the bank got information about his death we have been expecting his next of
kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release the fund
unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as
indicated in our banking guidelines and laws, but unfortunately we learnt
that all his supposed next of kin died alongside with him at the plane crash
leaving nobody behind for the claim. And our banking law and guideline here
stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed after five years, such money
will be moved into the banking treasurer as unclaimed fund. The request
of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that
the deceased customer was a foreigner, a citizen Benin cannot stand as next
of kin. If you accept my proposal to do this deal with me I will give you 30%
of the total money will be for you as a foreign partner while 10% will be set
aside to cover any expenses that might be incurred during the process of
transferring the fund to your nominated bank account. If you're willing to
handle this deal with me kind get back to me with your Private telephone and
fax numbers for easy communications well as your personal picture or a copy
of your National ID, to enable me know whom I’m dealing
with. Note: I demand the highest trust from you to keep this
business strictly confidential for security reasons as you may know that the
bank don't know that i am the one that contacted you to stand for this claim
as a next of kin. At the end of this transaction which will be when the money
will hit your account safely i will then come over to your country for sharing
the fund according to the previous agreed percentage, you might even have to
advice me on possibilities of investment in your country.
Anticipate your urgent responce Best regards, Mr Doussou Roland,Reply here;
