Subject: I got your contact from a very confidential source and I wish to maintain this confidentiality.
From The Desk of Mr. Mamadou Amadou
Coordinator of the northern states Programs
ADB Bank (ANNEXE)
EMAIL: Subject: PERSONAL// INVESTMENT PROPOSAL FOR URGENT ATTENTION
ATTENTION:
Sir I am Mr. Mamadou Amadou an ACCREDITED Auditor Bank personnel of the
above mentioned Bank.
I got your contact from a very confidential source and I wish to maintain
this confidentiality.
Actually, I decided to send you this proposal directly for your appraisal on
a possible business proposition for you & for our overall mutual interest.
I was the coordinator on technical cooperation and procurement officer to
the Bank Of African Development and the African funds development
Projects/contract awards. I need your assurance to help conclude a very good
transaction wish I feel you will be very much interested. BUSINESS
I am from Burkina Faso West Africa, I came across a file of a deceased
client that I was handling as special adviser to the account, I discover
that the bank is trying to confiscate the sum of $15,000,000 because from
the file there was no record of next of kin.
It was only stated that the next of kin is referenced with number 45263.
With this it means that the account owner is a rich person and therefore
gives this code to indicate that on his death any one with this code that
will apply for his money should be honored or else the whole should be given
to charitable course.
I discover that if anyone does not come up with application for claim to
this money there are senior officers that will confiscate the fund with some
flimsy excuses that no one signal ownership since the banking regulation
states that after four years of no identity or application from no one for
this fund then the fund will be reverted to state treasury.
I am ready to have this fund transfer to your account if you can follow my
instructions to the last for onward investment plan with a clear vision and
proper detailed plan of the investment I am ready to negotiate with you to
have this fund transferred to a safe account which you shall provide as
foreign account since the owner of this account is a foreigner and no
indigenes can apply for the claim.
I will be able to enter into detail discussion with you if you show your
interest of capability to handle this transaction with uttermost
confidentiality and whole trust with transparency.
This is 100 % risk free and I am offering you 40% of the whole fund while
I take 50% 10 will be set aside for the charges to be paid to cover banking
process.
Upon your response I shall then provide you with more details and relevant
documents that will help you understand, and be rest assured that this would
be most profitable for both of us This is not a scam or a joke or April
fool, this is real life situation and opportunity like this comes but once,
do not put prejudice in between .Awaiting your urgent reply via this email
above, please save me the anxiety of endless waiting.
God bless you.
Mr. Mamadou Amadou.
