Accra Ghana.
Hello Dear,
Compliments Of The Day,
Permit me to introduce myself to you. My name is Mr.David Appia. ,A Top
Management Official of International Commercail Bank,I came to know
about you in my private email chat for a reliable person/company to
handle an important assingment that will benefit both of us.
Proposition, Eng.Alexander Zubakin from Russia,a Chemical Engineer and
an Oil Merchant here in Ghana,has the sum of $15.6 million in our
Bank.Unfortunately, he died in an accident long time ago.
Efforts had been made by the management of my corporation through the
Embassy in Ghana to contact any of the deceased children but to no
avail,as we were made to understand he had no children and has long
divorced from his wife of many years living him a lonely man.
Given the skeletal information available to the corporation, it has so
far been impossible to reach any of the relatives. The situation left
for the Management is to declare the deceased account dormant and
revert the Amount to trading on behalf of the interest of the corporation.
In
order to avoid this development, I now seek your approval to have you
stand as his relative, so that the money would be released to you,Please do
not
get me wrong i am only being ambitious and making adequate use of the
opportunity open to us.
I will tell you what to do and send you a sample of an application
letter that you will send to the bank in this regards and all the vital
informations that you will need. I shall Apply for a leave as soon as
the funds gets into your reliable account to come to your country for
possible sharing and investment opportunity which you will assist me
in doing. May I assure you that this is safe and risk-free, as we have
taken care of all necessary modalities to ensure a hitch-free
movement. i propose that should you be willing to assist and work with me
in
this,your share would be 35%.
I have reposed my confidence in you and hope that you will not
disappoint me.
As i will only be checking your reply from today.
Best Regards,
Mr.David Appia.
