Dear Sir,
Compliments of the day and how are you today I hope you are fine. Before I proceed I would like to introduce my self to you.
My name is MS. Sandra Tanko, a staff in accounts/ operation department of STBC BANK CORP LTD. ABIDJAN COTE D' IVOIRE. I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. I got your contact from the world trade centre (W.T.C.) regional office in ABIDJAN COTE D' IVOIRE the details of my intention was not made known to them.
On June 6 2001, An oil consultant / contractor with the ABIDJAN COTE D'IVOIRE National Petroleum Corporation, MR. Abudel Waziri, made a numbered time(fixed) deposit for twelve calendar valued at US$ 8,000,000.00 ( Eight Million united states dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contact employers COTE D'IVOIRE National Petroleum Corporation that MR. Abudel Waziri, died in auto crash along with his entire family.
On further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that MR. Abudel Waziri, did not declare any next of kin in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork. This sum of US$ 8,000,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will come forward to claim it.
According to the ABIDJAN COTE D'IVOIRE Law, at the expiration of 6 (six) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the COTE D'IVOIRE Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to MR. Abudel Waziri,so that the fruits of this old mans labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials.
As am still working in this Bank, what we have to do is very simple. You will send to me your complete names, address and information’s which I will secretly programme in the computer account file of late MR. Abudel Waziri, as his registered associate/next of kin before his death and who is entitle to inherit the deposit encase of death.
After this, I will send to you a text of an application letter for claim which you will reprepare your self and submit it to the banking and operation unit of our bank for their approval, for the successful releasing and transfer of the fund to your account in your country.
May I inform you that secrecy and honest should be a base for the success of this transaction, base on this, Me and you are much expected to keep this business very secret and confidential.
I am promising that as soon as we get this fund transferred into your account, I will give to you 40% of the total sum as a compensation for your full assistance, while 60 % will be for me and I will be interested in investing part of my own share in a good investment in your country.
If you are interested, please reply immediately via the private email address below or up. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details that will help you understand the deal very well. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.
Awaiting your urgent response via email (sandratanko107@yahoo.fr ) feel free to call me for more detail on this my house telephone number +22507601411 call me, during evening our time which is most confidential for us to discuses and by then, I must have close from
