Subject: URGENT BANK TRANSFER
International Commercial Bank,
Ghana, West Africa
Teshie Nungua Branch Accra
Federal Republic of Ghana.
Dear,
My name is David Asare, The regional manager of International Commercial Bank, Teshie Nungua Branch Ghana. I am a Ghanaian by birth, and married with three children. Although I am not comfortable to send this proposal to you because of increase in SCAM and FRAUD especially in Africa, but I am too sure is not Scam because you have access to confirm, provided you did not let my Bank know the source of your information.
I have packaged a financial transaction that will benefit both of us. As the regional manager of the bank, it is my duty to send financial reports to my head office in the capital city of Accra Ghana. On the course of the last year 2006 end of the year's report, I discovered that my branch in which I am the manager, made twenty-four million US dollars.($24,000,000.00)of which my head office is not aware and will never be aware of it. I have since then PLACED this fund in an ESCROW CALL ACCOUNT without a beneficiary. As the regional manager of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to this Money thus, I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive this money into your bank account. I intend to part 25% of this fund to you while 75% shall be for me and two officers who will assist me move the fund to your account.
I do need to assure you that there is no risk involved in this Business. It’s going to be a Bank-to-Bank transfer. All I need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund. If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response and then we shall discuss on how you will keep our share.
Regards
David Asare
