Subject: THANKS FOR YOUR KINDNESS
Dear Sir / Madam
Actually, my associates and I did not in any way mean to startle you or shock you by our request to you. We had to ask for your help because of the situation that we found ourselves. We write to you after having given much consideration and felt, may be we could work with you for the betterment of both us involved. For the purpose of clarity, I am ROSE MABINGA (Mrs. ) the, Chief Auditor of Bank International du BENIN in collaboration with Mr. MICHAEL MOLOTO the manager of the bank.
By virtue of our official positions we where able to discovered an abandoned account with the sum of US$17.5(SEVENTEEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED UNITE STATE DOLLARS) in a non- resident account that belongs to one foreign customer who died in November 1999 in a ghastly motor accident. Since we got the information about his death, we have been monitoring the account to see his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we nnotrelease it unless someone applies for it as next of Kin or relation to the deceased, as indicated in our banking guidelines, I want to let you know in confidence that till date know one has ever come forward for the claim.
It is therefore on this note that we decided to write you if possible make business with you and release the money to you as the next of Kin or relative to the deceased. As the banking guidelines here in BENIN stipulate that if such money remained unclaimed after eight years, it will be transferred into the State/Government accounts as unclaimed fund. If you are interested in this deal we shall give you the whole information’s and guide you on how to apply for it so that we do not face any complications from your side or from any one knowing what we have in hand.
With the appropriate documentation the ownership of the sum will be transferred to you after the validation and the authentication of the documents at the bank. I intend arriving at your place with the relevant original papers/documents within 48 hours as soon as you receive the notification of transfer from the bank. And I want to assure you that this business is 100% risk free as long as you and we maintain maximum confidentiality. My colleague and I would require your personal guarantee concerning the safety availability of our share on demand when the fund is credited to your account.
And Please even if you are not interested I require you to keep this matter confidential and to yourself only as we are still in active government service as such would not want to be expose. The sharing of the fund shall been agreed by both of us If interest is shown we agreed to offer you 20% of the total money for your help. Reply by e-mail micheal01_moloto@yahoo.co.uk as regards to the confidential nature of this matter.
REGARDS
ROSE MABINGA (MRS).
