Dear,Sir
I Have A Good News For You,
My name is Dr Smant James, I work in the International operation department
in a Local Bank here in South Africa On a routine inspection I discovered a
dormant domiciliary account with a Balance of $36,000,000 (Thirty Six
Million USD) on further discreet investigation, I also discovered that the
account holder has long since passed away (dead) leaving no beneficiary to
the account. The bank will approve this money to any foreigner because the
former operator of the a/c is a foreigner and from Iraq in particular and I
am certainly sure that he is dead, and nobody will come again for the claim
of this money A foreigner can only claim this money with legal claims to the
account Holder therefore I need your cooperation in this transaction.
I will provide the necessary information needed in order to claim this
money, But you will need to open an account where this can be transferred.
If interested send your private Telephone No And Fax number including full
details of the account to be used for the Deposit I wish for utmost
confidentiality in handling this transaction as my job and the future of my
family would be jeopardized if it were breached.
The informations will be as follows.
Bank Name.........
Bank Address........
A/C Name.............
A/C Number..............
Swift Code No..............
Routing Number................
I want to assure you that the transaction is without risk if due process is
followed accordingly Finally I will give you 25% for your corporation.
I look forward to a favorable response from you through email:
Sincerely & Respectfully yours,
Dr Smant James.
May God Bless You In Jesus Nema.
