In a brief introduction, I am Mr. David Adjei, the head of auditing and accounting section in one of the African leading banks in the West Coast. I got your contact from in my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential transaction that involves transfer of funds to a foreign bank account. I Hoped that you will not expose or betray this trust and confident that I am about to repose on you for our benefit. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $22,500,000.00 (twenty two million five hundred thousand United States dollars) In an account tha!
t belongs to a foreign national, an oil consultant with Shell Petroleum company who died in a car accident with his family on the 26th July 1998. When we discovered that there had been neither deposits nor withdrawals from the account for so many years hence it was lodged under escrows call account, we decided to carry out an investigation and discovered that the accident killed him with his wife and his only son who he used as his next of kin. Since we got this information, we have been expecting his relatives or nearest person to come over for the claim of his money because the bank cannot release it unless somebody officially applies for it as indicated in our banking guidelines, but unfortunately we discovered that none of his relations is aware of the existence of this fund. And It is a standard practice that after the expiration of 10years the funds will be declared as an "Unclaimed Asset Resource" and the funds will be confiscated by the federal government. Th!
is is the major reason why am contacting you. I wish to use your parti
culars to transfer this fund to a foreign bank account in your country. Because I don't want the funds to be confiscated by the government. All arrangement for the transfer of this fund has been legitimately made under a smooth arrangement that will protect us from any breach of the law. I Hope you will understand and assist effectively for the success of this transaction, though this approach appears desperate but I assure you that everything will workout successfully. Now my questions are:- 1. Can you handle this project? 2. Can I give you this trust? 3. Can you sponsor this transfer? 4. Can you come down to my country to sign the final release fund? As soon as you are ready to assist and finally indicate your interest in this business, I will need the following information below to start processing the transfer. But if you cannot be able to come down in Ghana for signing release fund to your account, dont contact me .because the bank will need you to come d!
own here in our bank for signing release fund to your account. YOU'RE FULL NAME//........ NATIONALITY//............... TELEPHONE//................. OCUPATION//............ I advise that you get back to me as soon as possible for more explanations and possible means of transferring this fund. Please be rest assured that as far as I'm concerned this transaction is 100% risk free because I have already covered every loop holes and also set my machinery at work to avoid traces. I will destroy all the documents related to the decease account as soon as the transaction is concluded.
