Dear friend,
How are you doing with your family?I presume that all is well with you.I am
the manager of audit and accounting department at the foreign unit of our
bank.I got your contact from the international directory when i was looking
for a foreigner who will assist me to achieve a great success business that
will yeild us life success.
Before i wrote you,i prayed that you will be a honest and reliable person
whom i can work with to achieve this deal of our life.From my section in the
bank, I discovered an abandoned sum of EIGHTEEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED
THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($18.5m) that belongs to one of our customer
who died along with his entire famillies,on 25TH JULY,2000 CONCORDE PLANE
CRASH[Flight AF4590 ] with the whole passengers aboard.The name of the
deceased man was (MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER from Munich,Germany).
N.B.In other for you to believe me honestly,go through this
(website)before you start with me. Below is the website.
(http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm)
You have to understand that i come acrossed this huge amount of money when i
was arranging the departmental customers file to submit to the bank
management for the annual audit of the year.Since the bank got information
about the death
of the deceased man, the bank have been expecting his next of kin to apply
and claim his money because the bank cannot release the fund unless a person
from any foreign countries apply for the transfer of the fund as the next of
kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking
guidelines but unfortunately i learnt through investigations that all his
supposed next of kin died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving
nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now
decided to make this business proposal to you so that you will apply to the
bank to release the money to you as the next of kin or relation for safety
and subsequent sharing since nobody is coming for it.
For us to achieve this businesss immediately,the percentage ratio for
sharing the fund when the bank release the fund to you must be arranged.So i
accept that thirty percent of the fund(30%) will be for you as a foreigner
for the provision of any bank account where the bank will the money into
including other of your participation during the process of the
transfer,Sixty percent(60%) will be for me as the person who explores the
business,Five percent of the fund (5%) will be for the expenses which may
come forth during the transfer of the fund, while 5% will be shared to the
helpless peoples around us in the world such as motherless babies,charity
homes,disable peoples and so on.
Thereafter I will visit your country for sharing the money according to the
percentages indicated above.So for the immediate transfer of this fund into
your bank account as
arranged, you must apply first to the bank as the only existening next of
kin to the deceased customer by indicating in the application the bank
account information
where you will request the bank to transfer the fund into.So if you accept
to help me in other to achieve this great business,i will send to you
through email or by fax,an Application form of claim which you will fill
with
your account information and send to the bank for the
transaction to start immediately.
Please i would like you to know the following informations.(1.) This
business is HUNDRED PERCENT FREE FROM RISK.(2.)You will not face any much
questions because the application will bear the brief information of the
deceased which the bank may like to know.(3.) If you will follow my
instructions
and directives,this transaction will be completed within a short period of
time.(4.)You should keep this business CONFIDENTIAL or SECRET until the fund
get transfered into your account for safety and security purpose.
Finally,call or contact me through my email address or through my private
telephone number so that we will proceed with this business
immediately.
My regards to you and your family.
