FROM THE DESK OF : DR HASSAN DANTATA,
AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING SECTION,
AFRICAN DEVLOPMENT BANK ( A.D.B )
OUAGADOUGOU BURKINA-FASO,WEST AFRICA.
Attention Please,
I am Dr Hassan Dantata, the Director in charge of Auditing and Accounting
section of AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK (A.D.B) Ouagadougou Burkina-faso West
Africa. With due respect and regard. I have decided to contact you on a
business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end
of the transaction .
During our investigation and auditing in this bank, my department came
across a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person who died in a
plane crash and the fund has been dormant in his account with this Bank
without any claim of the fund in our custody either from his family or
relation before our discovery to this development.
The said amount was U.S 7.5M (Seven Million,Five Hundred Thousand United
States Dollars). As it may interest you to know, I got your impressive
information through internet directory . Meanwhile all the whole arrangement
to put claim over this fund as the bonafide next of kin to the deceased, get
the required approval and transfer this money to a foreign account has been
put in place and directives and needed information will be relayed to you as
soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist, and also
benefit your self to this great business opportunity.
In fact I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this
country as a civil servant(A Banker),we are not allowed to operate a foreign
account and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of
transfer because I work in this bank. This is the actual reason why it will
require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin
with affidavit of trust of oath to the Bank and also present a foreign
account where he will need the money to be re-transferred into on his
request as it may be after due verification and clarification by the
correspondent branch of the bank where the whole money will be remitted from
to your own designation bank account.
I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free.On
smooth conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 30% of the
total sum as gratification, while 10% will be set aside to take care of
expenses that may arise during the time of transfer and also telephone and
internet bills, while 60% will be for me and my coleagues. Please, you have
been adviced to keep "Top Secret" as I am still in service and intend to
retire from service after we conclude this deal with you.
I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this bank until you confirm
the money in your account and ask me to come down to your country for
subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated
and further investment, either in your country or any country you advice us
to invest in. All other necessary vital nformation will be sent to you when
I hear from you.
I look forward to receive your phone and fax numbers for easy communication,
Yours faithfully,
Dr Hassan Dantata
