Subject: Compliment!!!
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 STATE 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/
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 to the end i will give to 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 kindly 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 response Best regards, Mr Doussou Roland,Here reply;
