Subject: Asalamalekum
From Mr.Aminu,
I am pleased to introduce a business opportunity to transfer to your overseas account the sum of($8.4 USD)Eight million Four hundred thousand United States Dollars from one of the Prime Banks here in Dakar-Senegal. I am Mr Aminu Bakari (Bsc,Msc,) the Auditor General of one of the prime banks here in Dakar Senegal west Africa ,during the course of our auditing ,I discovered a floating fund in an account opened in the our bank since 1982 and till date no body has operated on this account again ,after going through some old files in the records
I discovered that the owner of the account died long ago in a plane crash along with his family without leaving a[Heir/WILL] hence the funds is floating and if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be forfeited for nothing.
The owner of this account is a foreigner,a nationality of your country before his death, he was a management consultant and he died since 1992. No other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that until his sudden death he was a management consultant.
Since I hardly know any foreigner,I am only contacting you as a foreigner with the same surname to stand and apply as his next of kin because this money can not be approved to a local person here as his next of kin, without valid international foreign passport. I need your full co-operation to make this work fine because the management is ready to approve this payment to any foreigner who has correct information of this account, which I will give to you upon your positive response and once I am convinced of your capability and assurance that you will never never let me down.
At the conclussion of this project ,we may proceed into an investment as equal partners of which you are to guide it pending my resignation which will be in a short while after the transfer if you may wish or we may share it in a ratio of 4.5% for you and 5.5% for me. Regarding moral justification of the fund ,i wouldn't want you to consider it haram . If you h d being the victim ,Certainly you wouldn't be happy having your hard earnedfund shared among government as an unclaim deposit ,i believe they are many other aspects of life we may contribute with this fund to help the less priveledged in our religion society .
I look forward to your earliest response.
Mr Aminu Bakari
