Hello Dear,
How are you?.I am enchanted using this tremendous opportunity to converse with you in this medium of communication.I am Mr David Dooks.A statistician and an auditor by profession.Working with one of the fastest growing Banks in UK called NATWEST BANK PLC as an efficiency consultant and the head of Bill and Exchange at the Foreign Remittance Department.I am also a member of British Bankers Association .The reason for the introduction is the confidence and courage i have this moment to give you a cognizance of a business proposal and also to seek your assistance in the development of my humble proposal.
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. JOHN SHUMEJDA. who died along with his entire family in a plane crash at Birmingham Airport on 4th Jan 2002. View this website for verificationhttp://www.cwn.org.uk/business/a-z/a/agco/2002/01/020104-air-crash.htm.
Since his death, my Bank has being anticipating 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 and financial policies but unfortunately all the efforts proved abortive.
Therefore upon this discovery that I decided as the head of my department to make this business proposal know to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safe keeping and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and i don`t want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill.
I quite know that you might be confused on receipt of my email as we have not met before neither in person nor by correspondence. But I contacted you due to the great need for the participation of a foreigner on this project.
Note that the fund cannot be approved to anybody in UK as the deceased is a certified foreigner, but on application of a foreigner with correct information of the account which I will forward to you as we proceed, the fund transfer will be approved.
And 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 David Dooks.
