Dear friend.
I am the Manager, Credit and Accounts Department, of InterContinet Financial Services Plc.
I write you in respect of a foreign customer with A/C Number 14-225-2004/UTB/T. Who, among others
on board The S7 Airbus A-310 was carrying 200 people - a crew of eight and 192 passengers - on a flight
from Moscow to Irkutsk, on July 9, 2006. Which Killed 118 people, Sir, since the death
of this our customer, Mr Karake Shimona, a successful middle east oil business tycoon who has been living
here for the past 6 years before his death, I have kept a close monitor of his deposit records and accounts.
Since then nobody has come to claim the money as his next of kin. Mr Karake Shimona has US$38.6 Million
(Thirty Eight Million, Six Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) in a coded account. It is only an insider that can
produce the password of the deposit particulars.
As it stands now, there is nobody in a position to provide the required information other than myself considering
my position with the bank. Based on the reason that nobody has come for the claims of the deposit as next of kin,
I seek for your co-operation to use your name and particulars as the next of kin to the deceased and the beneficiary
of the fund.
This will enable us to send the money to an offshore account that will be provided by you for sharing, as I am the
only person who has the code to the deposit and have already removed the file from the company safe.
What is required of you is to send an application seeking claims of the deposit as the next of kin to Karake Shimona.
I will send you the specimen copy of the required application as soon as you show your willingness to assist me.
Note that the banking rule here does not allow unclaimed dormant domiciliary deposit accounts to stay for a
period of more than four years, otherwise it is recalled to the Government Treasury since it is an expatriate's account.
In view of the above, I implore you to join me to lay claim to this deposit as the next of kin to Mr Karake Shimona.
There is no risk involved in the business as you will be given all vital information about the deposit.
ingredients. It is good for you to note that all modalities have been put in place for a hitch-free operation. For your assistance
I have agreed to give you thirty percent (30%) which is $11,580,000.00 (Eleven Million, five hundred and eighty
Thousand U.S.Dollars only) of the Total sum at the end of the transaction while 65% would be for me and the remaining
5% would be for any form of expenses that may be incurred by both parties during the course of the transaction which
would be given to us when the money is transferred into your account before splitting the balance on the agreed percentage
of 65% to 25%. Please note that your last name does not affect anything as a next of kin need not be a direct relative of the
deceased, It is a legally binding law in the constitution of any country, Therefore, your nationality should not be a problem too.
Kind Regards
Willy Ben.
