Dear Sir/Madam,
RE: Help Needed For Mutual Investment Relationship.
I feel quite safe dealing with you in this business proposition having gone through business ensure Hitch-Free at all time. Though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly safed for privecy in doing this beneficial transaction. I choose to
reach you through it because it still remains the fastest, surest and most secured medium of communication. However, this correspondence is purely private, and it should be treated as such.
I work in UNION BANK PLC. as the HEAD of TREASURY/ CREDIT and my Mission of contacting you is based on Trust and Faithfulness that will be attached to this profitable Investment. The Management and the Legal department of our BANK (UNION BANK OF NIGERIA PLC). Victoria Island) in a recent meeting, recommended that
the account of MR.JOHN WILCOCK, who was one of my branch depositor, should be declared dormant and confisticated the depositor's fund to the Bank Treasury according to the Banking procedure and Financial law. He is a foreigner based in victoria-Island, unfortunately He is late as he was amongst those that was Killed in the recent WARRI CRISIS as you can confirm through this website http://www.worldpress.org/Africa/1083.cfm
He is an account holder in my branch, he owns a dollar account with the sum of US$18.5M (Eighteen Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only) deposited in the account. In fact it happened that since his death, the next of kin of the dollar account holder (the brother/relations) no one has not show up
for the claim. This is where I want you to come in. I want you to come in as the relation of the deceased, I will give you necessary Assistance and perfect the Legal Authentication documents which will officially recognise you as a relation to
the deceased.
Then, all the procured documents will be sent to the Payment Authority and they will automatically contact you for the claims as the Next of Kin to Late MR.JOHN WILCOCK. I shall guide you with all diligence and legal processes to ensure the
smooth perfect success of this transaction and the Funds (US$18.5Million) must be transfered into your own bank account in your country as the Officially approved beneficiary.
Upon my personal finding on this matter, I kept this information secret to myself until now that I am contacting you. In view of the fact that the deceased customer is a foreigner (from a different country), it is Officially important for the
involvement of a foreigner who will pose as a next-of-kin. I will use my exalted position in this Bank to present you as his Next of Kin as no body will doubt it once all the required documents are officially legalized in your favour because i know hiS personal lawyer here. Finally, before I made up my mind to contact you I have concluded every arrangement to ensure that you receive the funds successfully as the next of kin within four (3-4) working days only.
I will give you more information as soon as you indicate your
Interest /willingness to assist in this transaction. I will use my positions to get all internal documentations to back up the claims. The whole Procedures will last only 24hours to obtain the required documents-certificates and get the fund retrieved
successfully Without trace even in future. Please i need the following to commence:
1. YOUR FULL NAME /PHONE AND FAX NUMBER
3. HOME ADDRESS /COMPANY'S NAME AND ADDRESS.
4. YOUR PERSONAL PHOTO FOR ME TO KNOW YOU, AND I WILL SEND YOU MY PICTURE ON MY RECEIPT OF THE YOUR INFORMATIONS.
Take note; after successful conclussion of this transaction, we shall share the money 40-60 (40% for you and 60% for me). I plead you to reply immediately whether interested or not, but let me hear from you very fast.
Yours truly,
