Subject: LETTER
Dear Sir,
It is my pleasure to contact you for an assistance and
business co-operation. I know the content of this
letter might be surprising to you but I assure you
that every word of it is true. Even though we hardly
know each other I believe you can help me.
I am Dr.Bathlomew Ebong Director Foreign Remittance Union
Bank of Nigeria Plc. My office monitors transfers of
fund outside Nigeria. During my routine work I
discovered the sum of $50,000,000.00 in the transfer
system programmed for transfer to an undisclosed bank
account in America, I was shocked hence I started to
investigate how the fund was left on the transfer
system without my knowledge and I discovered that the
Chairman of my bank who is now late and since been
buried due Muslim rites, he died two weeks ago was the
person responsible.
The American Company that was the original beneficiary
has since been paid $50,000,000.00. The name of this
American Company is PACIFIC GROUP INC CALIFORNIA USA.
This Company is a Crude Oil Company based in Port
Harcourt River States of Nigeria. This money was lying
unclaimed in the
transfer system waiting for a bank account where to be
transferred into before the Chairman passed away.
Now I am in charge of the whole operation since nobody
knows anything about this and I have blocked all
access for investigation regarding this money, now I
am soliciting for your assistance to help me transfer
this money to your bank account or any bank account
you can forward to me for the transfer.
All you have to do is to give me your private address,
phone and fax lines for an easy communication and
banking details in which you would use in receiving
the sum in question and also to enable me secure
approvals of the money in your names as the bona fide
beneficiary of the sum in question.
If you can assist me transfer this money into your
nominated bank account, I will give you 25% of the
amount, 5% is mapped out for any expenses incurred by
both parties and the rest 70% for me, You will keep
the remaining sum for me pending my arrival to your
country. I intend to invest 50% of the sum in Real
Estate business, I assure it is safe and no risk is
involved. No other party is aware of this money.
However, this transaction should be secret and
confidential. Be advised that business like this can
not be realized without trust. But let Honesty and
Trust be our watchword throughout this transaction and
your prompt reply will be highly appreciated.
I await your reply on your participation so that we
can search for another willing person.
Your quick response matters.
Best regards
Dr.Bathlomew Ebong
Director
