I am the manager at the auditing and accounting
department of one of the commercial banks here in
United Kingdom In my department we discovered an
abandoned sum of US$33.5m dollars ( US dollars) in an
account that belonging to one of our foreign customer
Mr.Andreas Schranner from Germany.Who died along with
his entire family In a crash on Monday,31 July,2000 in
a plane
crash, The passengers were flying to New York to join
a Caribbean cruise for
a vacation of a lifetime. Please visit this
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
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 somebody
applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking 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. 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 we don't want this money
to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill. The
banking law and guidline here stipulates that if such
money remained unclaimed after ten years, the money
will be transfered into the bank treasury as unclaimed
fund and the ten years is fast approaching. The request of foreigner as next
of kin in this
business is occassioned by the fact that the customer
was a foreigner from Germany. I agree that
30% of this money will be for you as a respect to the
provision of a foriegn account ,10% will be set aside
for expenses incurred during the business and 60%
would be for me Thereafter, I will visit your country
for
disbursement according to the percentage indicated
Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this
fund to your desiggnited bank account ,you must apply
first to the bank as a relation or next of kin of the
deceased with a text of application that i will send
to you,so i will like you to send to me your private
telephone and fax number for easy and effective
communication and location where in the money will be
remitted.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax
or email the text of the application . I will not fail
to bring to your notice this transaction is hitch-free
and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as
all required arrangements have been made for the
transfer. You should contact me immediately as soon as
you receive this letter. Trusting to hear from you
immediately.
Regards,
Yours Faithfully,
JOKO.
