- From Mr. John Savimbi.Auditing and accounting section,Oceanic International Bank Plc,Cotonou-Republic of Benin,Dear Friend Send your reply to my direct private E-mail: johnsavimbi30@yahoo.fr , I am Mr. John Savimbi, the director in charge of auditing and accounting section of Oceanic International Bank Plc Benin, in the file/computer deptment. I got your contact through an internet business proposal so i decide to contact you on this business opportunity.In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of $20,000,000,00m US dollars (Twenty Million US dollars) . In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family on 25th December 2003 in a plane crash.VIEW THIS WEB SITE.( http: www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/26/benin.crash/index.html ) Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and I don't want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. So you can easily make this deal with me, I have every proof document which will help you to execute this money. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Beninois which I am cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. I agree that 30 % of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 60 % would be for me. There after I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated.Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged,you must apply first to the bank as relations or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where in the money will be remitted .Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text of the application. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer. Trusting to hear from you immediately. All other necessary information will be sent to you with further advice as soon as I receive your reply. Please get back to me via my private E-mail: johnsavimbi30@yahoo.fr, as soon as possible stating your wish in this offer. Yours faithfully, Mr. John Savimbi.
