{MONEY TRANSACTION}
{ONE HUNDRED & THIRTY SIX MILLION USD}
(RE:TRANSFER OF ($ 136,000,000.USD)
Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Mr.Benson Newson, and I work in the International operation
department in a Local Bank here in South Africa On a routine inspection,I
discovered a dormant domiciliary account with a BAL Of 136,000,000 (One
Hundred and Thirty Six Million USD) on furtherdiscreet investigation I also
discovered that the account holder has long since passed away (dead)leaving
no beneficiary to the accountThe bank will approve this money to any
foreigner because the former operator of the a/c is a foreigner and from
Iraq in particular and I am certainly sure that he is dead and nobody will
come again for the claim of this money A foreigner can only claim this money
with legal claims to the account Holder therefore I need your cooperation in
this transaction.
I will provide the necessary information needed in order to claim this
money, But you will need to open an account where this can be transferred.If
you are interested send me your private Telephone No And Fax number
including the full details of the account to be used for the Deposit.I wish
for utmost confidentiality in handling this transaction as my job and the
future of my family would be jeopardized if it were breached The information
will be as follows:
Bank Name............
Bank Address.........
A/C Number...........
Beneficiary Name.....
And i am assuring you that the transaction is risk free hence we are going
to follow the normal transfer process .Finally a 30% of the total fund will
be given to you for your steadfast corporation.
I look forward to a favorable response from you as soon as possible.Thank's
for your maximum co-operation and remain blessed.
Best Regards,
Benson Newson.
