Dear Friend,
Compliment of the day,It is my intention to have this proposal addressed
to you via email which will be treated with utmost secrecy for protection
of my reputation if been considered interesting.
I am the Finance Director of the above named bank in Nigeria and having
discorvered a lump sum of money to the tune of $36.5M that was diverted
to the suspence account of our bank by the assisnated former Minister of
finance,Government of Nigeria.
During the course of my investigation,I noticed that the funds was diverted
to our Suspence Account by the Late Minister of Finance in order to move
the funds to the USA as this Bank been a Government Bank and frequently
used to move funds out of the Country.
I also requested the new Minister of Finance to check on their records about
this funds been approved and released for project execution/payment and
only to return back to me confirming to me that such funds as mentioned
by me were not on records and have no idea about such fund.
I have also checked with the Central Bank and there was no records of these
money and only to conclude that the gentleman wants to move this funds
out of his own personal benfits but unfortunately did not succeed on moving
the funds to oversees country before he meet his death as a result of his
personal problem with the Former Nigerian President,(Late Sani Abacha).
Above all,I have concluded arrangement to claim the funds as the funds
has no record and cannot be traced and in order to succeed to claim the
funds,I need a foreigner that will collaborate with me to stand as the
Owner/Beneficiary of the funds to enable me prepare all documents with
the person's name to claim the funds and to have the funds wired directly
to the person's account without any delay.
Bear in mind that this is risk free and nothing to fear about for your reputation
and presonality will be respected and protected as you are dealing with
a professional Banker.
In order to work this deal out with you,I will offer you 30% of the total
funds while my 70% will be held-on-trust by you and to be re-invested in
a profit oriented business of your choice on my behalf.
Finally,if you are very much interested,able and willing to assist,I hereby
advise to revert back to me through my private email :abdullahiabu@mail2world.com
