MAIL FROM MR NACHAAT NABBANCORPORATE STATEGY OFFICERBANK OF AFRICABURKINA FASOWEST AFRICA. Good day, I am the Corporate Stategy officer at the Operations and Customer service department in the Bank of Africa,Burkina Faso,West Africa.I write to solicit your assistance and collaboration in actualising a financial transaction which could be of mutual benefits for both of us . I discovered an abandoned sum of Seven Million Six hundred and fifty two thousand Euro( €7,652,000 ) in a Fixed Term Deposit Account(FTDA) file which belong to a deceased customer of this bank(Mr Kelvin Goodman) ,the former director of operations of¨PetrolBurkina (the company that is responsible for the sales of petroleum products in Burkina Faso)he died in an auto accident with his wife and two children on 19th July 2003 while on Holiday in Bafora, a tourist village in southern Burkina Faso. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin or relatves 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.Unfortunately I learnt that his supposed next of kin being his first son died along with him in the auto crash leaving nobody with the knowledge of this fund behind for the claim It is therefore, upon this discovery that I decided to make this business proposal to you to enable both of us put heads together in a working partnership to claim this fund since I have all the required information that will shall use for the claim of bthe fund for sharing and disbursement since nobody is coming for it. Our banking rules stipulate that if such money remained unclaimed after five years, the money will be transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund.I have contacted you because this project requested the participation of a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to the deceased customer based of the fact that that the deceased customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. On smooth conclusion of the transaction,you will be entitled to 40% of this money for your participation as my foreign partner 60% would be for me. I do not need to remind you of the absolute secrecy and confidentiality that this transaction demands.Please indicate your interest to assist me in this working partnership using this alternative email (nachaat0002007@freesurf.fr) I look forward to your earliest reply by mail. Your FaithfullyMR NACHAAT NABBAN
