Dear Sir,
I am Mr Bamanga Bature the director of Logistics of (WEACA) West African Control
Authorities Dakar Senegal, with due honour I am contacting you in the respect of
fund transfer to your account. This fund belongs to Mr. Robbin Marvin,Inview of
the above we are working as the International Monittory Committee here in the
West Africa,and we monitor every out going and incoming huge fund that was leaving
every bank from the West African States to any destination in the whole world.
And this organisation was empowered by the USA Government (NDLEA) National Drug
Law Enforcement Agency after (911) September 11 2001 bomb blast in United State
of America, to make sure that every fund that was leaving the West african region
has no relationship with Anti Drug Law or Terrorism.
This sum of GBP3.8 million is still in our correspondent Bank where it was held
perior for transfer after the investigation before the report came to us that he
died, and since then no one has come forward to claim it since the report of his
sudden death. Mr Robbin Marvin of United States of America's fund has proved
legitimate. According to the rules and stipulation of the organisation of WEACA at
the expiration of 7 (seven) weeks from now,the money will be re-called back to
the Central Bank of Senegal if nobody applies to claim the funds as a couisin or
beneficiary next of kin to Mr Robbin. Based on my position in this organisation,
I have kept the facts of this case I am still watching closely to myself alone.
The reason I have decided to contact you is because I am quite certain I can move
these funds out immediately but would need your assistance. What this requires is
that you put in an application of claim into this fund with my guide line.This will
enable this Bank in Europe where the money was held to open a premium account and make
an internal database transfer of the Funds to your account.
However, in the fact that our Bank in Europe may not entertan in your request to open an
account without a proof of the fund origin, I will without divulging forward to you
the whole documents of the said fund and will forward it to you when I have your
interest in my in this matter, On grounds that you agree to do this with me,the money
will be shared in the ratio of 60% for me and the chief executive and protocal officer
of WAECA who is the only person that knows the fact and origin of this fund then 40%
for you. It is quite necessary that these are kept as confidential as possible for its
successive completion. Please contact me and I will take it from there.Once I hear from
you,I will give you all the paper that will lead you to our Correspondent bank’s online
services.
Please reply through my email request.I will be expecting your reply,
Sincerely,
Mr. Bamanga Bature.
*Director Of WAECA*
