I know this email will reach you as a surprise, but need not to worry as i am
using the only secured and confidential medium available to seekfor foreign
assistance in a business.
I am Dr DUFF CHIMA from the AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK.(ADB), DAKAR-SENEGAL.Branch.
This business request may seem strange, but I crave your indulgence and pray
you view it seriously as I am convinced that you would be capable to
provide me with a solution to a money transfer.
On June 6, 1999, an America Oil consultant/contractor with
Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Charles Ball made a numbered
time (fixed) deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at
US$6,500,000.00(six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars )in
my branch upon maturity. I sent a routine notification to his forwarding
address but got no reply.
After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his
contract employers, the Petroleum Corporation that
Mr.Charles Ball died in the plane crash On October 31, 1999, (an
Egyptair Boeing 767 Flight 990) with other passengers on board as you can
confirm it yourself via the website below:
http://www.marsearthconnection.com/ea990.html
On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a
WILL and attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made
further investigation and discovered that Mr. Charles Ball did not
declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents,
including his bank deposit paperwork in my bank. This sum of
US$6,500,000.00 and the interest is being rolled over with the
principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it
According to AFRICAN law, at the expiration of (five) years, the money
will revert to the ownership of the SENEGAL Government if nobody
applies to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to
stand as the next of kin to Mr. Charles Ball so that the fruit of this
old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt Government
officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your
full name and address so that the Attorney will prepare the necessary
documents and affidavits which will put you in place as the next of
kin.We shall employ the service of two attorneys for the drafting and
notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter
of probate administration in your favour for the transfer.
Any bank account in any part of the world which you will provide will
then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of
kin.The money will be paid into your account for us to share in ratio of
60% for me and 30% for you and 10 % will be set aside for expenses
incured during the business . There is no risk at all; the paperwork for this
transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch
Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you
are interested, please reply immediately via the private email address
below, upon your responses, I shall provide you with more details and
relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality and be rest assured that this
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your
assistance to invest my share in your country.
Please upon the receipt of this mail message, send to me the following
to enable me start the processing of the fund transfer into your bank
account:
1.) Bank details to be used (that is banks name and account number)
2.) The beneficiary's name.
3.) Your private / official telephone and fax number.
Awaiting your Urgent Reply via my private email:ddffchima1@post.cz or call
me on my private telephone number: +221-5124859
Thanks and God bless,
