Subject: CONFIDENTIAL...
Dear friend,
In order to transfer out (USD 45 MILLION) Forty Five million United
States Dollars) from I.B.D.B., I have the courage to ask for your
assistance to handle this important and confidential business believing
that
you will never let me down either now or in future. I am Barrister
Martin Kudi. attorney to Late paulton Allens a foreigner and an
Engineer
with Atlas Engineering Co.
Late paulton Allens has an account with I.B.D.B., which he set up in
1980.He died in 1990 in an auto crash in republic of Benin.
I received a memo early this year from the international remittance
unit of I.B.D.B., for an interview,The Bank informed me on their policy
to
Freeze the account and redirect the funds back to government treassury
because they saw no next of kin in Paulton Allens entire file Except me
as his attorney but not his inheritor He said it is the Central Bank
Regulations and the I.B.D.B. policy on dormant the account for the period
of ten years as the policy says that such fund should be forfeited to
government treasury .
After scrutinizing his entire file within my Chamber i discovered that
he had no next of kin in his entire file with us. On that issue i
opened up to the manager on my intention to move the funds for
investments abroad.
He then adviced me to look for a foreigner because Paulton Allens is
not a citizen of Benin,And he told me that the fund will be processed
as a contract sum in the name of the new benficiary,the deposit was
paid into late paultons account on the order of the
Federal Ministry of finance to the Central Bank.
I am contacting you because of the need to involve a foreigner with
foreign account as the foreign beneficiary. I need your full
co-operation
to make this transaction work.
All i need from you is your full name and address,including your bank
account informations where the funds will be processed into.
i will also need your telephone and fax numbers for oral communications
too.
We can sign a binding agreement between us and i will suggest we scan
copies of our international passport or drivers license as a form of
security between us.
I have resolved to share the money in this ratio.
50% for me,35% for you ,10% for the remittance manager in the bank and
5% for expences we might incurre in the processing of this transaction.
I will come over to your country for sharing and investements as soon
as you confirm the funds in your account.
The entire details of this transaction and all the role you are
required to play , i will send to you on your positive response to this
mail.
Yours FaithFully,
Martin Kudi.
