I moustaha diallo from the bill and exchange foreign remittance department
of African development bank (A.D.B) . I am writing to seek your cooperation
over a business deal.
In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $10.5million USD (Ten
million ,five hundred thousand United State dollars) . In an account that
belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire
family in a plane crash. Please visit this site that is one of the evidence
the directors brought in other to swallow the money at the end of the day,
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
Since we got information about 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 guidelines but unfortunately we learnt that
all his supposed next of kin or relation died long side with him at the
plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I decided 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 I don¢t want the money to go into the
Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill.
The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained
unclaimed after four years, the money will be transfered into the Bank
treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this
business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner
and an citizen cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
l agree that you suggest the sharing of this money , in respect to the
provision of a expenses ,5% will be set aside for expenses incured during
the business . There after I and my colleagues will visit your country for
disbursement accoding to the percentages you indicate.
Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund, you must apply
first to the bank as relations or next of kin to the deceased man
indicating your claims and wherein the money will be remitted. I will not
fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is stricly confidential
and should be handled with utmost secrecy untill completed.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Yours faithfully,
moustaha diallo
