Attention:
I am Mr. Ibrahim Zongo, a provincial Managing Director of Banque Régionale de Solidarité (Regional Solidarity Bank) - Burkina Faso (It is a prominent commercial bank established on 22nd November, 2005). I have an urgent, suitable and confidential business plans that would yield a mutual benefit for both of us.
On June 19, 2010, Mr. Don Lewis, the Managing Director (MD) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of âSundance Resources Ltdâ with his 5 other colleagues working in the same Australian-based international iron-ore and mining company, crashed in a dense jungle in the Republic of Congo. Mr. Don Lewis made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$6,500,000 (Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity on 30th June, 2010, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no immediate
reply. After a week, my bank sent a reminder but finally, we discovered
and confirmed from his contract employers, the Congo Brazzaville Mining Corporation that Mr. Don Lewis was among the victims of a chartered flight which crashed on 19th June, 2010 inside a remote jungle there. For reference purpose,please copy and paste these links in your internet browser:

On further investigation, I learnt that Mr. Don Lewis had no children, while his wife died last year in almost a similar circumstance (car accident). Worst still, Mr. Don Lewis died intestate (without leaving any valid WILL and last Testament), which could have indicated and justified a possible beneficiary to his estate / wealth. Therefore,
the lack of any legal justification written or signed by him even made all our attempts to trace any next of kin was fruitless. Therefore, I made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Richard Moss did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$6,500,000 is still safely lodged in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum on monthly basis. No one will ever come forward to claim it. In according to the Burkina Faso
Banking Laws, at the expiration of 6 (Six) months, Mr. Don Lewisâs bank account shall become obsolete and inactive thereby prompting the authority to revert the deposit to the National Treasury office of the Burkina Faso Government, if nobody applies to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Don Lewis so that the fruits of my friend and client will not get into the hands of the government officials, who must request the bank deposit
assessment from our bank before taking steps to impound the deposit into the government coffer. This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that the Attorney placed to handle the transaction will prepare the necessary legal change of ownership documents and affidavits which will put you in place as the next of kin. The service of the Attorney will include a drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favour for the
transfer. A bank account in any part of the world which you will provide will then facilitate the receipt of the money to you as the beneficiary / next of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 55% for me and 45% for you.
There is absolutely no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the Attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of immediate transfer as soon as the legal paperwork is completed. If you are interested, please reply immediately via my private email address below. Upon
your positive reply, the Bank and other relevant details shall be given to you that will help you to properly understand my plans.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be absolutely rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable to both of us as I may require your personal assistance to invest my share in your country due to my present official position in the bank.
Thanks and regards.
Mr. Ibrahim Zongo
Managing Director {BHBF - Burkina Faso }.
