Dear Lovely Friend,
I AM THE MANAGER BILL EXCHANGE OF THE FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT OF ECO BANK PLC.I am writing folowing the impressive information I got about you through the help of internet and computer it is on internet i got your name and your email address as a foreingn person and I realy have a confident to contact you concerning this transaction of fund and investment project in your country .
Also I prayed that you should be capable and reliability to champion this opportunity. In my department, I discovered an abandoned sum of USD15 million Dollars (Fifteen million US Dollars) in account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his ntire family in November 1998 in a motor acident. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we can not release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guide lines and laws but unfortunately we learnt that his supposed next of kin or relation died along side with him at the accident leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I now 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 this money to go into the Bank's treasury as unclaimed. The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after four years, the money will be tranfered into the Bank's treasury as unclaimed fund.
The request for a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and an indegine can not stand as next of kin to this family. I agreed that 40 % of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be set aside for expenses incured during the business and 50 % would be for me thereafter I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated as son as the money is transfer to your porivate bank account .
Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the Bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased , The money will be paid in Draft to be cashed in any part of the world. Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or e-mail the fund release text of application which you shall forward to my bank for urgent release of the fund to yuor bank account as the next of kiin to the late bank's customer . I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for this transfer. You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter through my private email address at ( bukazulu2007@yahoo.fr ) Trusting to hear from you immeidately.
Yours faithfully, Mr, buka zulu
