DEAR FRIEND,
I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foriegn remittance
department of Bank Of Africa (B.O.A).
In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of US$15.5 (Fifteen
million five hundred thousand US dolloars) in an account that belongs to
one of our foriegn customer who died along with his entire family in a
plane crash that happened in Kenya, East Africa.
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his
next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unless some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking guidlines and laws but unfortunately
we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside
with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
Please I want you to visit the website below for more information about
the Plane Crash and the Deceased DR. GEORGE W. BRUMLEY AND HIS FAMILY:
http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/07/20/kenya.crash/index.html
It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this
business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin
or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since
nobody is coming for it and I don't want this money to go into the bank
treasury as unclaimed bill.
I agree that 30% of this money will be for you as a foreign partner
and 60% fo me and my pertner 10% for any expenses that we come during
the transfer respect to the provision of a foriegn account, and 60%
would be for me, There after I will visit your country for disbursement
according to the percentage indicated.
Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as
arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relation or next of kin of
the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your
private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and
location wherein the money will be remitted.
Upon the receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the
text of the application to fill and send to the bank. I will not fail
to bring to your notice that this transaction is 100% Risk free and you
should keep this transaction (TOP SECRET) and this transaction will
only take us 14
banking days in the exceptance of this proposal because as a banker, I
know what to do and move the fund into your account without any delay
and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required
arrangements have been made for the transfer.
You should contact me as soon as you receive this letter .
You are advice to contact me on my private E-mail addres
sulemanomar96@yahoo.com
Yours faithfully.
DR OMAR SULEMAN
Bill & Exchange Manager
