Dear sir/madam
I am pleased to get across to you for a very urgent
and profitable business proposal, I am contacting you
to and ask for your assistance in this urgent matter,
requiring trust and confidentiality.
I am Mr. Omar Bin .S., the Assistant Branch manager,
First Gulf Bank of Dubai United Arab Emirates,On June
6, 1996, an America Oil consultant/contractor with
Petroleum Corporation, Mr. David Ameeraly, visited my
branch and fixed a total sum of US$ 8, 200,000.00
(Eight Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars)for eighty
four calendar months(7years)Fixed Deposit,upon maturity,
I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address
but got no reply.
After a month,we finally discovered from his contract
employers, the Petroleum Corporation that Mr. David
Ameeraly,died in the plane crash On October 31, 1999,
(an Egyptian Boeing 767 Flight 990)with other passengers
on board. See link below for confirmation of this;

On further investigation from the bank papers that he
filled while opening the account,I found out that he
did not declare any next of kin or relations in all
bank official papers. This sum of Eight Million Two
Hundred Thousand Dollars and the interest is being
rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each
year. At the expiration of 8 years after maturity of the
funds if the money is left unclaimed, the money will
revert to the ownership of the UNITTED ARAB EMIRATES
Government.
My proposal is that I will like you to stand as the next
of kin to Mr. David Ameeraly on the grounds that you are
business partners. This is simple and risk free and I
shall use my position in the bank to place you as the next
of kin.
The most important document being the certificate of
deposit original copy I have in my custody and this would
be forwarded to you upon your response. With this document,
all you need to do is to secure the services of a lawyer
who will procure necessary documents and affidavits which
will legally place you as his next of kin and also act a
your legal representative / correspondence before my bank.
Considering my position in the bank, I will immediately
make the funds available to any account you provide through
the lawyer withou t any questioning, or delays. Once you
have confirmed receiving the money in your account, we
will share the money in an agreed percentage scale of 55%
for me and 45% for you as well. Reply me back with the
following information so we can proceed with this transaction;
1. Full Names
2. Phone Number (for a fast and effective communication)
3. Fax Number (so I can fax the certificate of deposit to you)
4. Age :
