My Dear Friend,
I am Mr. David Frank, the Auditor of United Bank for Africa Plc
(U.B.A). I have an obscured business suggestion for you. One of our
clients/personal friend, Late Mr. Kim Sean unfortunately lost his life in the
plane crash on January 31st 2000 including his wife and his only
daughter.
Late Mr. Kim Sean is a foreigner and the manager of Granite Minning
Nig, a chemical engineer by profession and he died since the year 2000. No
other person knows about this account or anything concerning it. After
further investigation it was also discovered that Mr. Kim Sean's next
of kin is his daughter who died with him, hence the account has no other
beneficiary and my investigation proves to me as well that his company
does not know anything about this account and the amount involved is
US$65 million.
I am contacting you to stand and act as the next of kin to Mr. Kim
Sean. At the conclusion of this business, you will be given 40% of the
total amount, while 60% will be for me, and any expenses which you and me
may incur during the process of this transaction will also be
reconciled afterwards. Let me have your confidential Telephone, Fax and mobile
Numbers. My private email is(frankomor4u@yahoo.com)
Yours Truly,
Mr. David Frank.
my number is +233--246--701--886.or+233--243--110--658.
call me now.
regard,
frank.
