Dear Friend,
My name is Mr. Ofosu Kwame I am the regional manager of International
Commercial bank of Ghana Kanashie branch in the western region of Ghana. I
write you this proposal in good faith; I am 44 years old married with two
lovely kids. I am a devoted Christian and a man of peace.
I have packaged a financial transaction that will benefit you and I, as the
regional manager of the International Commercial bank it is my duty to send
in a financial report to my head office in the capital city Accra at the end
of each business year.
On the course of the last year 2006 business report, I discovered that my
branch in which I am the manager made Five million seven hundred and twenty
united state dollars ($5.720)usd which my head office are not aware of and
will never be aware of. I have placed this funds on what we call escrow call
account with no beneficiary.
As an officer of this bank I cannot be directly connected to this money, so
my aim of contacting you is to assist me receive this money in your bank
account and get 30% of the total funds as commission.
There are practically no risks involved, it will be a bank-to-bank transfer,
and all I need from you is to stand and claim as the original depositor of
these funds who made the deposit with my branch so that my head office can
order the transfer to your designated bank account.
If you accept to work with me I will appreciate it very much. and I will
give you my full informations.Remember there is no risk involved I promise.
Thank you in advance and May God bless you and your family.

Yours truly
Mr. Ofosu Kwame
