Subject: Urgent
Greetings to you,
I am Mr Bruce Anderson, the Regional Manager of a prime bank here
in London.I would like to strike a business deal with you if you
would approve and consider.There was a Non Resident Account opened
in my Branch and for the past 6 years this account has been dormant without
operation and at the same time nobody has come to claim the account
with its closing balance,and the amount of money involved is very large.
This made me to trace the source and origin of the funds and the beneficiary
starting since the year 2006 and today I have gathered every report
confirming that the Beneficiary was a Top Oil merchant in his country
and now have passed away many years ago leaving no legal inheritance
instructions on the account.
On enquiries non of the family members knows of the existence
of this account because the account was opened with a different name in
order to maintain the privacy of the account in question.
On this note, this account will be converted into the bank treasury by the
end the year if no one comes forward for the claiming of the funds.
Therefore, I come to you to know if you will agree to this offer so that I will
present you as the legal Next of Kin to claim the funds while official
documents will be processed/secured and prepared to support our claims.
This is a straight and legitimate deal without any risk attached/associated
as long as this deal is prosecuted legaly and official according and within
the precepts of the monetary policies of the British Government.
I have resolved to give you 40% while i use 60% for immediate
investment in your country incase you are interested.
Please confirm your direct telephone numbers, full name and address for
further discussion of this offer in details.
Regards,
Bruce Anderson.
