DR Benard Titus
Accounting Department,
EcoBank. ,
Dear Friend,
I am Dr Benard Titus, Auditor, with Accounting Department,Ecobank I got your very good name and e-mail address from the online classified posted on the net.I have decided to
contact you purely on the personal conviction of trust and confidence that we can co-operate with one another and do a very lucrative business for our mutual benefit. The Business I am proposing to you is in respect of the sum of US$11,183,000.00 (Eleven Million, One Hundred and Eighty-Three Thousand United States Dollars Only) deposited in Dollar account with my bank which belonged to Mr Mohamed Saleh Ibrahim who died on 25th July,2000 in a plane crash, is an Engineering contractor.My bank has made several efforts at
contacting the family of Mohamed Saleh Ibrahim or his relatives, but all have proved abortive as he had no identifiable kin's men. This sum of US$11.183M have remained unclaimed ever since then and nobody has come forward as his next of kin.The management under the influence of our chairman and member of the board of directors has made an arrangement for the fund to be declared 'UNCLAIMABLE' and subsequently be turned to the reserve account of the bank. It is against the background of the foregoing, that two of my colleagues and myself in the bank have decided to contact you for assistance and partnership, for you to stand as the next of kin to Mr Mohamed Saleh Ibrahim . With your permission this fund will be transferred to your private account abroad as the beneficiary and next of kin to Mr Mohamed Saleh Ibrahim.
All proof of claim and necessary documentation will be carefully worked out in your favour and we assure you of 100% risk free involvement and protection. Consequently, if you find this proposal acceptable to you and you wish to assist us, I expect your urgentresponse and upon receipt of that,we shall discuss and agree on the disbursement and sharing ratio.Let me therefore expect your very urgent response through my phone,or e-mail addresses. Please
endeavour to include your private phone and fax number and also your private e-mail where available. Please keep this proposal very secret and confidential. You can get back to me on this email address drtitusbenard@yahoo.com.au
