ATTN,
I am Mr James Williams from London. I want to seek your
assistance after my discovery during auditing in my bank as
am the Manager of Bill and Exchange at the Foreign
Remittance Department of NATWEST BANK PLC. In my department
I discovered an abandoned sum of £12.5 million pounds in
an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers
Mr.Christian Eich, 57, an engineer who ran carmaker BMW's
museum, his wife and two children and his wife's parents
were also among.on 25th july 2000 concorde plane
crash(flight AF4590)with the whole passenger's aboard.
Kindly view in order to believe me honestly, visit the web
site to enable you as well, below is the website

Since his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to
come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to
the deceased as indicated in our banking and financial
policies but unfortunately all the efforts proved abortive.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I decided as the
head of my department to make this business proposal to you
and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation
to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since
nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money to go
into the bank treasury as unclaimed bills.
But be sure that it is real And A Genuine business as I
believe in God that you will never let me down in this
transaction till the fund is remitted to your norminated
account while i will travell to your respective country to
collect my own share of the money, and we have concluded
that at the conclusion of this business,you will be offer
25% of the total amount while 60% will be for me and the
rest of 15% will be for any expensess both party will incure
in the process of transacting this business.
Do not view this as being illegal but an opportunity for us
to help enrich our hope in life instead of the bank
converting this much money to the security funds.
You should not nurse any atom of fear as all required
arrangements have been made for the smooth transfer of these
funds and your acceptance is what will crown this effort.

Remain blessed,
Mr James Williams
