Subject: Good Day I Need Your Trust
FROM THE DESK OF: DR RICHARD DIYABRANCH MANAGER WITH CAPITAL INTERNATIONAL BANK PLCHEAD OFFICE 11 B AKIN ADESOLA STREETVICTORIA ISLAND. LAGOS NIGERIA.TEL: +234-806-896-5047Email: richarddiya@myway.com
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Dr. Richard Diya, Branch Manager with CAPITAL INTERNATIONAL BANK PLC (C.I.B) I am writing this letter to ask for your support and cooperation to carry out this business opportunity in my department. We discovered an abandoned sum of ($25.5 MILLION U.S. DOLLARS) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer late Engr. David who died on April 21/ 2002. My client, his wife, and their three children were involved in a car accident along lagos/ibadan expressway where all occupants of the vehicle unfortunately lost their lives in the process of the accident. Since we heard of his death, we have been expecting his next-of-kin to come over and put claims for his money as the heir, because we cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines.
Unfortunately, neither their family member nor distant relative has ever appeared to claim the said fund. Upon this discovery, I and other officials in my department have agreed to make business with you and release the total amount into your account as the heir of the fund since no one came for it or discovered his maintained account with our bank, otherwise the fund will be returned to the banks treasury as unclaimed fund. We have agreed that our ratio of sharing will be as stated thus; 30 % for you as foreign partner, 65 % for us the officials in my department and 5% for the settlement of all local and foreign expenses incurred during the course of this business.
Upon the successful completion of this transfer, I and one of my colleagues will come to your country and mind our share. It is from our 65% we intend to import Agricultural Machineries into my country as a way of recycling the fund. To commence this transaction, we require you to immediately indicate your interest by a return e-mail and enclose your private contact telephone number, fax number full name and address to enable us file letter of claim to the appropriate departments for necessary approvals before the transfer can be made.
Note also, this transaction must be kept STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL because of its nature.
I look forward to receiving your prompt response.
Please do acknowledge the receipt of my private email address: richarddiya@myway.com
Thanks
Dr. Richard Diya (C.I.B)
