Subject: This is from Mr Henry Kabore
Dear friend.
I know that this letter may come to you as a surprise.I got your address
through a local Business directory on the web.I must apologize for taking
some of your valuable time to explain a proposal that I believe will be of
utmost benefit to us.
I am Mr Henry Kabore manager audit account department of African
Developement Bank.(A.D.B.) In my department we discovered an abandoned sum
of NINTEEN MILLION, THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS
($19,300,000.00 ) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer
who died along with his entire family in a plane crash .you can also confirm
this in the website as
Since the bank got information about his death we have been expecting his
next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release the
fund unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines and laws but unfortunately
we learnt that all his supposed next of kin died alongside with him at the
plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim and our banking law and
guideline here stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed after five
years,such money will be moved into the banking treasurer as unclaimed fund.
The request of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by
the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot
stand as next of kin. 25% of the total money will be for you as a foreign
partner while 5% will be set asite to cover any expenses that might be
incured during the process of transfering the fund to your nominated bank
account.
If you're willing to handle this deal with me kind get back to me with your
Private telephone and fax numbers for easy communicationas well as your
personal picture or a copy of your international passport to enable me know
whom i'm dealling with.
Meanwhile, i will send to you an application form which you will fill and
send directly to the bank.
Note:I demand the hightest trust from you to keep this business strictly
confidential for security reasons as you may know that the bank don't know
that i am the one that contacted you to stand for this claim.
Best regards,
Mr Henry Kabore
