AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING UNIT.
FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPT.
BANK OF AFRICA (BOA)
OUAGA-BURKINA FASO
TELEPHONE +226-76-60-94-42.
Dear friend,
I am Mr SALE.DUDU.the director in charge of auditing and accounting section
of Bank of Africa ouaga-burkina faso in west Africa with due respect and
regards.I have decided to contact you on a business transaction that will
be very beneficial to both of us at the end of the transaction.
During our investigation and audting in the bank, my department came across
a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person, a foriegner who
died on november 1999 in a plane crash and the fund has been dormant in
his account with the bank without any claim of the fund in our custody either
from his family or relation before our discovery to this development.
Although personally, I kept this information secret within myself and partners
to enable the whole plans and idea be profitable and successful during the
time of execution.The amount involved is USD$14m (fourtheen million united
states dollars). As it may intrest you to know, I got your impressive information
through an international business equiry on internet.I beleive you will
be viable and capable to champion a business of such magnitude without any
problem.
Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as the bonafide
next of kin to the deceased, get the required approval and transfer this
money to a foriegn account has been put in place and directives/needed information
will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your intrest and willingness
to assist us and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity.In
fact I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this
country as a civil servant,we are not allowed to operate a foriegn account
and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of transfer
because I work in this bank.
This is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who
will forward claims as the next of kin with affidavit of trust of Oath to
the bank and also present a foriegn account where he will need the money
to be re-transfered into on his request as it may be, after due verification
and clarification to designated bank account. I will not fail to inform
you that this transaction is 100% risk free.
On smoth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 30% of
the total sum asgratification, while 10% will be set aside to take care
of expenses that may arise during the time of transfer such as telephone
bills ets, while 60% will be for me and my partners.
Please,you have been adviced to keep top secret as we are still in service
and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you.
I will be monitoring the whole situation here in the bank until you confirm
the money in your account and ask us to come down to your country for subsequent
sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further
investment,either in your country or any other country you may advice us
to invest in.
All other necessary information will be sent to you when I hear from you.I
suggest you get back to me as soon as possible stating your wish in this
deal.
Yours faithfully,
Mr SALE.DUDU.
