Dear Sir/Madam
Naturally , this letter will come to you as a surprise, since we have not met, permit me however, I am MR DONALD OGBE , the manager, credit and foreign bills of ORIENT BANK NIG PLC, i am contacting you and soliciting for your assistance based on this proposition below, which will be of mutual benefit to both parties.
I am writing in respect of Mr. Ramirez Sanchez, 66 years of age and a very prosperous farmer and a business man made a huge bank deposit for investment in the sum of US$2,500,000.= (Two Million Five Hundred Thousand USDollars), he named his wife Mrs. Helga Sanchez as the NEXT OF KIN. Unfortunately, Mr.& Mrs. Ramirez Sanchez were killed in earthquake that rocked El Salvador,killing in 2001 thousands of people where killed and 1,200 others were declared missing.
Since the demise of this our customer, I personally has watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds of US$2,5 m, (Two Million Five Hundred Thousand USDollars which has been with my branch for a very long time. The bank system stipulate that if such money remain with the bank for priod of 6years it will be tranfered into the account of the bank.
In order to avoid this development since it has so far been impossible to trace any of the deceased family relatives, I decided to seek for your personal assistance to have you stand as a next of kin to the deceased so that the funds will be released to you by the bank and we can use it for our mutual benefit. I hope you do understand my concern in this matter,if you are willing to assit me ,you and i will share the fund (50%) each.
If you are interested in assisting me with this matter, please, send to me urgently via my email the following details below:
1 Your full name and complete contact address
2. Your Private telephone and fax number (urgent)
3. Your date of birth (Age
4. your occupation
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is hitch free and that you should not entertain any fear as all modalities for release of the fund will be finalized within forteen banking days starting from the day i receive the above informations from you
Kindly ensure to treat this matter in strict privacy and is highly confidential
I look forward to your urgent Response. Cheers and god bless
Best Regard
Mr Donald Ogbe
