Subject: URGENT TRANSFER !!!
Dear Sir/Ma,
As part of the reorganization and revitalization of FIRST BANK Group,
My name is Mr William Jones,I have just been appointed managing director and chief executive of FBN (Merchant Bankers) Limited, Lome, Togo. My appointment took effect from 1st of September, 2003. Before my appointment into this office I was the deputy manager and group head, Commercial banking, First bank of Lome plc, in charge of the bank’s commercial business segment, which included credit and marketing.My responsibility also included ensuring a sound portfolio and profitable relationships with diversified income streams.With a vast work experience cutting across marketing, insurance and banking, I had worked with American International Group, new York, United States;
American International Insurance Company, South Africa international bank Limited (now Bank of Johanesbourg), and United bank for Africa plc.With a working knowledge of French, I also attended programs which include Executive management program, Stanford Business School, USA; Advance management program, INSEAD, Fountain blue, France and many other performance courses in Togo, Nigeria, Ghana and Overseas.
This makes me very vast with the Banking and Insurance System.When I resumed office I found out that one MR. Mbogo Samuel a foreigner from
South Africa who happened to be a Retired Operations Manager with ABB (Asea Brown Boveri) a foreign construction company with a branch in Togo had deposited a huge some of money amounting to about Eight Million, Five Hundred thousand United States Dollars Only ($8,500,000.00).
The interesting thing about this is that the next of kin happened to be his
Girlfriend, according to our findings, she is a Ghanian from a British
background who knows the said man was dead but never new her name was written as the Next of Kin.Firstly, I and the Chief Accountant of my Bank had completed arrangement to share the money and we have organized a lady to act as the Next of Kin to collect the money which will be transferred to a Foreign Account for her (which is NOT true) and of course she will have her own Percentage of the money since she will be appearing at the Bank to claim the Fund.Secondly, we have prepared all necessary documents for the Business to commence.
Thirdly, we need someone who is sincere and God fearing that we can trust to receive the money for us and assist in building a lucrative business relationship with our bank and country. Bank to bank transfer is not a problem since we work in the bank we know what and how to defend the Transfer. Our area of investments includes Real Estate Management and import/Export transactions.
Please if you are interested and your country is condusive for us to do
business, send your contact information’s and bank informations where you want the money to be paid into, also include how many PERCENT you will want to take after the Transfers and Deal have been sealed?
For more information I believe we can TRUST you contact me via email
I await your prompt and favorable response with the required information to expedite actions.
REGARDS,
William Jones
