Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Daniel Okemute, Branch Manager with Eco Bank International
Plc {E.B.I}. I am writing this letter to ask for your support and
cooperation to carry out this business opportunity in my department. We
discovered an abandoned sum of fifteen million dollars ($15 million u.s.
dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers Late
Engineer A. James who died in the Ikeja bomb blast of the January 27, 2002
my client, his wife, and their two children were involved in Ikeja bomb
blast unfortunately they lost their lives in the process of the bomb blast.
Since we heard of his death, we have been expecting his next-of-kin to come
over and put claims for his money as the heir, because we cannot release the
fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to
the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines.
Unfortunately, neither their family member nor distant relative has
ever appeared to claim the said fund.
Upon this discovery, I and other officials in my department have
agreed to make business with you and release the total amount into your
account as the heir of the fund since no one came for it or discovered his
maintained account with our bank, otherwise the fund will be returned to the
banks treasury as unclaimed fund. We have agreed that our ratio of sharing
will be as stated thus; 30 % for you as foreign partner, 65 % for us the
officials in my department and 5 % for the settlement of all local and
foreign expenses incurred during the course of this business.
Upon the successful completion of this transfer, I and one of my
colleagues will come to your country and mind our share. It is from our 65%
we intend to import Agricultural Machineries into my country as a way of
recycling the fund. To commence this transaction, we require you to
immediately indicate your interest by a return e-mail and enclose your
private contact telephone number, fax number full name and address to enable
us file letter of claim to the appropriate departments for necessary
approvals before the transfer can be made.
Note also, this transaction must be kept STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL because of
its nature. I look forward to receiving your prompt response.
