Subject: Dear Sir,
UNION BANK OF GHANA PLC
ACCRA-GHANA.
Dear Sir,
I am Dr.Dan Mobutu. of Bills and Exchange at the foreign remitance department of the Union Bank of Ghana Plc. I am writing this letter to ask for your suppport and coperation to carry out this businessopportunity in my department.
I discovered an abandoned sum of $20.565m (twenty million, five hundred and sixty five thousand united states dollars only) in Account Number 11008734290 status of account fixed deposit account,that belongs to one of our foreign customer Mr.Lee Wong C.E.O.,
WONG LEE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY ACCRA GHANA LIMITED,Who died along with his entire family in November 1998 in a plane crash.
Since we got information about his death we can not release the money unless somebody applies for it as the next of kin or relation to the deceased.As indicated in our banking guidelines. Unfortunately,neither the family members nor the relations have appeared to claim this money.
At this discovery,I decided to do business with you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation of the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and I don't want this money to go into the bank trasury account as an unclaimed debt. Thebanking law and guidelines of Union Bank of Ghana Plc stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed for a period of Ten (10) years it will be transfered
into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund.the need for a foreigner as next of kin in this siness is occasioned by the fact that the costomer was a foreigner and as a Ghanian cannot stand as his next of kin or heir.
I agreed that 30% of the money will be for you as foreign partner,thereafter I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentage indicated.Therefore to enable the lmmediate transfer of the fund to you as indicated. You must apply to the bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased.Indicating your bank acount number and indicating where the
money will be remitted.Upon receipt of reply.
I will send to you the text of application as soon as you receieve this letter you should reach me through my above e-mail immediately and indicate your direct and confidencial telephone number for effective communication. Hoping to hear from you through my
alternativemail: danmobutu221@yahoo.com
address as
stated above.
Yours Faithfully,
Dr.Dan Mobutu
