Subject: MY BEST REGARDS.
Good Day To You,
I am DR.GARY ASHMORES a Manager with ABSA Bank here in Johanesbourg South Africa ,I am also a former trustee to one of our Late customer ,a Russian Business Man (MR. ZIYA BAZHAYEV).
I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.I got your contact from the world trade center (W.T.C.) regional office in here in South Africa . In January 1999, a Russian oil consultant / contractor( MR. ZIYA BAZHAYEV) made a numbered-time (fixed) deposit for twelve calendar months valued at US$18,700,000.00 (Eighteen Million Seven hundred thousand US Dollars)in a Domiciliary Account in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification of Account Status to his forwarding address but got no reply.
After two months, we sent a reminder of same letter and finally we discovered from his contact employers,Oil Alliance company,his Company 's branch in South Africa , that Mr.Ziya Bazhayev died in a plane Crash of Yak-40 jetliner on March 9, 2000 May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace, as you can confirm this news from the following websites.
<http://www.amarillonet.com/stories/031500/usn_LA0703.001.shtml> or
<http://news.1chinastar.com/ll/english/61934.shtml>
After further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his Next-of-kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that MR. ZIYA BAZHAYEV did not declare any Next-of-Kin in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit Papers. This sum of US$18,700,000.00 is still floating in our Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one would come forward to claim it.
According to the South African Law, at the expiration of 6 (six) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the South African Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Consequent upon the above, my proposal is that I would like you as a
foreigner to stand in as the Next-of-kin to the Late MR. ZIYA BAZHAYEV.I will quickly work out the full documentation and transfer the US$18.7m into your nominated account anywhere.You would be fully rewarded when the money has been transferd to any of your nominated bank account of your choice. Send me your opinion to this request by my email bellow:
dr_garyashmores@yahoo.com.au
dr_garyashmores@yahoo.com.au
And I shall give you more details promptly.***KEEP ALL COMMUNICATION SECRETE****
Best Regards,
DR.GARY ASHMORES
