Dear Friend,
Compliments of the day. I deceided to contact you after I received a worthyinformation
about your reliability and honesty. Hence I confide in you.
I am DR JUYOS TITUS ,from (AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK),Republic of Benin.Duringthe
course of our auditing we discovered the sum of twelve million fivehundred
thousand united states dollars (USD$12.500.000.00) floating in anaccount
opened in this Bank since 1997 and as from 2001 nobody has operated
on this account again, and after going through some old files in the recordsI
discovered that the owner of the account died without a[HEIR]sept 11th 2001
by plane crash, hence the money is floating.
After due verification I noticed that no other person knows about this accountexcept
his wife who was also invovled in the crash, and the account hasno other
beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that untillhis death
he was the Director GOLD ARK [SARL] Since our bank,(AfricanDevelopmentBank)Benin
Rep.got information about his death, we have been expecting hisnext of kin
to come forward and claim his money because wecannot release it unless somebody
applies for it as next of kin or relation
to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines and policies butup
to date nobody came up to this bank as his next of kin or relative.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I and other officials in my departmentow
decided to make this businness proposal to you and release the moneyto you
as the next of kin or elation to the deceased for safety and subsequent
disbursement since nobody is coming forth and we don't want this money togo
into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. On this note, I decided toseek
for whom his name shall be used as the next of kin as no one has come
up as his relation.
And the country law here does not allow such money to stay more than Fiveyears,
for the money will be recalled to the government treasury as unclaimedafter
this period. Upon the receipt of your response, I will send to youthe application
form, bank's contact and the next step to take. I will not
fail to bring to your notice that this business is hitch free and that you
should not entertain any fear as all modalities for fund transfer can befinalized
within fourteen banking days, after you apply to the bank as a
relation to the deceased.
It has been resolved that 30% will be for you while 10% has been maped outto
defray any expences that might be incured during the process of the ransaction.Then
60% will be for me which shall be release after the funds must have
been remitted into your bank account.
