FROM MR DARREN HAZMEE. AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING UNIT,
INTERNATIONAL REMITTANCE DEPT,
BANK OF AFRICA,OUAGA-BURKINA-FASO.
My Dear,
Greetings to you,I am MR DARREN HAZMEE. The Account Manager of our late
Customer in Bank of Africa, here in Burkina Faso.However I got your contact
through the International web directory.I decided to contact you by email
because I feel that it is more secured and private. Recently I discovered
a dormant account with a huge amount of Money Valued USD11.3,000,000.00
(Eleven Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars only).that belongs to one of
our late Customer who died in a plane crash .During my investigation and
auditing in this bank, my department came across a very huge sum of money
belonging to our Late customer. an American great industrialist and a
resident of Alaska, who unfortunately lost his life in the plane crash of
Alaska Airlines Flight 261 which crashed on January 31 2000,including his
wife and only daughter. The fund has been dormant in his account With this
Bank without any claim of the funds in our custody either from his family or
relation before our discovery of this development.
The Banking law here stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed
for nine years, it will be forfeited to the Bank treasury as an unclaimed
bill.It is only a foreigner that can stand as a next of kin and It is upon
this discovery that I decided to contact you to collaborate with you to pull
out this dormant fund. In order to avert this negative development, I now
seek your permission to have you stand in as next of kin to the late
Customer so that the fund will be released and paid into your account as the
beneficiary as next of kin now that the bank is still expecting a next of
kin or relative of the deceased,
In fact I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this
country as civil servant, we are not allowed to operate a foreign account
and that would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of
transfer since I still work in this bank, this is the actual reason why I
required a second party or fellow who will assist me forward claims as the
next of kin and also provide either an existing bank account or to set up a
new Bank a/c immediately to receive this fund, even an empty a/c can also
serve for this purpose. On smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will
be entitled to 40% as gratification for assisting me,10% will be mapped out
to offset all expenses to be incuured during the cost of this transaction
and the remaining 50% will be for me.What I want from you is for you to act
as the deceased next of kin. I have perfected this deal, for us to
successfully accomplish the operation. Bear in mind that this proposal is
100% risk free.
Further Information will be given to you as soon as I receive your positive
response. I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible stating your
wish. I await your Urgent Responce
Regrads,
MR DARREN HAZMEE.
