DAKAR SENEGAL.
Alternative email:elsavim01@walla.com
Dear Friend,
I am the Auditing and Accounting Manager Bank of Africa (B.O.A) here in Dakar, Senegal. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of US$25m dollars (TWENTY FIVE MILLION US DOLLARS) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer (MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER from Munich, Germany) who died along with his entire family in Jully 2000 in a plane crash.

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 some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking guidlings and 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 laws and guidlines here stipulates that if such money
remained unclaimed after six years, the money will be transfered into the bank
treasury as unclaimed funds.
The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Senegalaise cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. 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 above.
So to enable the immediate transfer of this funds to your designated bank account,you must apply first to the bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location wherein 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 that 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.
Yours Faithfully,
Eloy Sakiata Savimbi
