Subject: THIS IS IMPORTANT.....GET BACK TO ME URGENTLY.
Greetings,
I am Mr Ndiora Paul from west africa LOME TOGO working with the bank BTCI LOME TOGO,i writing to seek your cooperation over this transaction,after the annual auditing of the year 2006 in our bank ,I discovered an abandoned sum of (U.S$9.5M UNITED STATES DOLLARS).in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his entire family in a plane crash that took place in Kenya,East Africa,Late DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY,a citizen of Atlanta,United States of America.Since our bank got information about his death, our bank have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his funds because it cannot be released unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately,all his supposed next of kin or relation died along with him in the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It's therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business proposal to you to make sure his balance of fund will be released to you via your foreign bank account as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and this money could go into the Federal treasury as "unclaimed Bill" if nobody comes for the claim.The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after five years, the money will be transfered into the federal treasury as unclaimed fund and finally get shared among our corrupt government officials.I think it will be better for us to put a major part of this funds into helping people suffering from aids,orphans,displaced persons,etc and keep some percentage,instead of letting some dubious leaders put this funds in their personal pockets.I want you to know that this transaction is 100% hitch-free operation from my master plan if you will follow
my directions and advice.
The request for your assistance and maximum co-operation as a foreign citizen to stand as the next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner and a TOGOLAISE cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
I agree to offer you 30% of this money as my foreign partner as soon as we conclude the transfer into your account.as soon as the money hit your account 10% will be set aside for expences incurred during the transfer and 30% would be for me,while we use the remaining to assist the needy.
Now my questions are:-
1. Can you handle this project?
2. Can I give you this trust?
3. Can you finance this project, if so,What will be your commission? if my percentage is not good for you. You are to send to me the following information,if you are willing to work with me.
NAME:.....
ADDRESS:......
OCCUPATION:.....
PHONE NUMBER:...
Fax..............
AGE...........
Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.Finally, it is my humble prayer that the information as contained herein be accorded the necessary attention, urgency as well as the secrecy it deserves.I Expect your urgent response if you can handle this project.
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is strictly confidential and i will use my position in this Bank to effect a hitch free transfer of this fund into any of your private account. Please, visit the website below for more information on the Plane Crash and the tragic death DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY and his entire family.
