Dear Sir,
( READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP SECRET)
Greetings and how are you doing? I hope fine? Please let
this my message do not be a surprise to you because I got
your information and lay trust in you before I contacted
you. I am the MANAGER OF AUDIT & ACCOUNTANCY DEPARTMENT of
our bank and I decided to contact you over this financial
transaction worth the sum of TWENTY TWO MILLION,THREE
HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS
($22,300,000.00).This is an abandoned fund that belongs to
one of our bank foreign customers who died along with
his family on 25th July,2000 in a plane crash
disaster.
I was very fortune to come acroos the deceased file when I
was arranging the old and abandoned customers files of
2003-2004 in other to submit to the bank managements
accordingly for documentation purposes. It is clearly
stated in our BANKING FOREIGN POLICY and signed lawfully
that if such fund remains unclaimed by the NEXT OF KIN
till the period of SIX (6) years starting from the date
the beneficiary died, the money will be transferred
into the BANK TREASURY as an unclaimed fund. Besides, it is
not authorized by the law guiding our bank for a citizen
of GHANA to make the claim of the fund.
So the request of you as a foreigner is necessary to apply
for the claim and transfer of the fund smoothly into your
reliable bank account as the NEXT OF KIN to the
deceased. When the fund is transferred into your
account, 20% will be for you for your assistance and in provision of the bank
account, while
70% will be for me and the remaining percent (10%) will be set aside to
offset any expenses that might occure in the course of the transfer. Should
there be any remainder of the 10%, such remainder shall be shared equally
between you and me. If you are really
sure of your integerity, trustworthy and
confidentiality, please reply immediately so that I can tell you the steps to
follow in order to finalize this transaction. You can also reply me through
my most exclusive email address: nkiye@teenmail.co.za
I will be waiting for your urgent reply.
My regards to you and your family,
MR. NKIYE N. DAN
