Subject: PLANE CRASH
Dear Sir,
I am Nelson Edward, a banker with First Rand Bank Limited, South Africa. There
is a dormant account in my bank and the owner of the account is deceased. I am
the branch manager of our bank where the deceased customer operated his account
last. There is a credit balance of ($54 million dollars) fifty four Million
United States Dollars] inclusive of accrued interests, which has been dormant in
his account portfolio for years now. After all investigation, I discovered that
the account and the money which belongs to a deceased foreigner has no heir
record attached in his folder/file. The late great industrialist established a
private supply business with Texaco Oil Company here in South Africa. Christian
Eich (57-year-old)whom perished with his whole family (Wife Andrea,38, son
Maximilian, 10, and daughter Katharine, 8.) in a Concorde PLANE CRASH [Flight
AF4590] on 25TH JULY, 2000 with the whole passengers on board. It was a tragic
and sympathetic situation. You can visit the below links for more details on the
flight.
As a banker and a Blackman living in South Africa, I cannot lay claims on this
money and there must somebody to apply for this money as a white man with proven
identity that must never relate to south Africa national. According to our
banking laws, after 5-7 years, the money will automatically be reverted to the
Federal Government Treasury especially if the Account owner was a foreigner and
has been certified dead. What I need from you at this stage is to use your name
and present you as next of kin to the diseased and the Rightful beneficiary to
his funds in our bank. Every record concerning the fund and all the legal
documents backing the funds are in my possession and under strict supervision.
This will be forwarded to you once you indicate your interest. I will have to
process the `only remaining paperwork which is to obtain approval from the
Probate Registry (Ministry of Justice) and include your name in the Letter of
Administration which automatically authenticates and empowers you as Sole
trustee/executor to the deceased Estate, after which I will use my position and
influence in the bank to effect onward transfer of this money from our bank to
your nominated account. After everything, you should have 40% of the total sum,
while 60%will be for me. All I Require is your honest cooperation to enable me
sees this business Succeed. The 40% percent will be for your assistance. There
is absolutely no risk Involved as it is absolutely impossible for a dead man to
rise from death to contest for his money which he doesn’t need regarding this
situation.
With regards
Mr. Nelson Edward Ngume
