Subject: URGENT FROM ABN BANK
ABN AMRO BANK
101 Moorgate
London, EC2M 6SB
U.K.
Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Mark Boland the Bank Manager of ABN AMRO BANK 101 Moorgate, London,
EC2M 6SB.
I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On July
20, 2001; Mr. Zemenu Gente, a National of France, who used to be a private
contractor with the Shell Petroleum Development Company in Saudi Arabia. Mr.
Zemenu Gente Made a Numbered time (Fixed deposit) for 36 calendar months,
valued at GBP£30, 000,000.00 (Thirty Million Pounds only) in my Branch.
Upon maturity in 2004, 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 contract employers, Shell Petroleum Development Company
in Saudi Arabia that Mr. Zemenu Gente And his wife with their three children
were involved in an auto crash, all occupants of the vehicle unfortunately
lost their lives..
On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL,and
all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. I therefore made
further investigation and discovered that Mr. Zemenu Gente did not declare
any next of kin or Relations in all his official documents, including his
Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. The sum of GBP£30,000,000.00 have been
floating as unclaimed since 2001 in my bank as all efforts to get his
relatives have hit the stones. According to the British law at the
expiration of 5 (FIVE) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the
British Government if nobody applies to claim the fund and the FIVE years is
the end of November 2006.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 2 years
now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin / Will
Beneficiary to the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at
GBP£30,000,000.00 can be transferred/paid to you.This will be disbursed or
shared in these percentages, 60% to me and 40% to you.
I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim
we may make. All I require is your honest Co-operation, Confidentiality and
A trust to enable us sees this transaction through. I guarantee you that
this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you
from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me urgently by E-mail
and Provide me with the following;
1. Full Name
2. Your Telephone Number and Fax Number
3. Your Contact Address.
4. Your Age.
Your urgent response will be highly anticipated and appreciated.
Best regards,
Mr. Mark Boland
