Subject: Sincere Regards.
This is Mr. T. M Davidson Manager/ a staff in one of the major leading banking in South Africa. In my Bank I discovered an abandoned large sum of money (US$14.7M) belonging to one of our late Foreign Customer, since 1997 nobody has operated this account.
The owner of this account is MR.SEAN BURKE, an American National, also a businessman based South Africa, was involve in air crash along with his wife. And he died since august 1997 in an air crash along with his wife in Korean Air with Other passengers on board. Confirm from this website http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9708/06/guam.passenger.list
I am basically writing you to seek for your Sincere Co-operation to present you as the only sole business partner beneficiary to this deceased name above since he specified no beneficiary, And no other person knows about this Account. The Strategy/plan is to use my influence as manager of the bank to approve the funds to you. If you are keen/interested let me know so that I can explain further details and next procedure/modalities more precisely and the share ratio.
Sincere Regards.
Mr. T Davidson
