My dear friend,
I am MR.ROYALNZE, an accountant with
one of the reputable bank in Cotonou{AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK PLC}. I am also an accounts officer to late(Mr.Ben Edwards)anational of your country, who was a contractor with Shell Development Company in Cotonou.
On the 1st of July 2004, Mr Ben, his wife and their two Children were involved in a car accident along Porto novo express road. All occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives.Since then we have been trying to locate any of Mr.Ben 's extended relatives, but this has also provedunsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to contact you over the Internet, I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the moneyleft behind by Mr.Ben before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by my bank. Since we have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives forover a year now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to the deceased since you have similar Last name with Mr.Ben so that the proceedsof this account valued at 6.5million US Dollars can be paid to you and then you and me can share the money. 60% to me and 40% for you.
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us seeing this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. As soon as I hear from you I will
detail you on the process of the transaction.
Relpy through this my private e-mail address: chinonso792@yahoo.ca
