Barclays Bank of Ghana Ltd.
Barclays house, high street
Accra – Ghana.
Attn.
Please permit me to introduce my humble self to you, my name is
Mrs.Margaretkwame, I am the Manager of Barclays Bank of Ghana Limited,
I 'm 36yrs old,
and I got your email address from an international people search bulletin,
while searching for a reliable and God fearing person and I am convinced
with your brief introduction that you will handle this business efficiently
with me, I hope you read this message carefully and reply me immediately.
Although we have not meet before, but I suggest that this transaction will
bring us together.
My dear, we had a customer, a foreigner but base here in Ghana, his Name was
Mr. Howard Clark. He is from Atlanta Georgia United State of America, but
based here with his wife and his two children, Mr. Howard has been banking
with us for the past 5yrs and some time in August 2002, Mr. Howard was on
his way to his house after spending time with his family at the beach,and
unfortunately ran into a Trailer load of Diesel and died immediately, Their
car got burnt, no single soul was saved, Mr. Howard Clark and His entire
family was confirmed dead.
.
My Board of Directors and the Management of Barclays Bank has mandated and
instructed me to look for Mr. Howard Clark's relation(s) and his Next of Kin
to come and claim his fund, Since August 2003 Till date, I have been looking
for his relation's or his next of Kin to come and claim his fund which he
Deposited with our bank, I have contacted his Embassy and after 3days, his
Ambassador told me that Mr. Howard Clark has no relation and no next of Kin,
their Ambassador told me that he used his first son as His next of kin, but
it is quite unfortunate that Mr. Howard Clark Died with all his family
members.
.
The reason why I contacted you is thus, Mr. Howard is dead, and his only son
who supposed to inherit his properties and money also died with him. As at
this moment, nobody or person[s] is coming to claim this Money from our
bank. The Board of Directors and management of our bank told me that if
nobody or person[s] apply for the claim of Mr. Howard's Fund, the bank will
return the entire Fund into our Federal reserve. In the Light of the above,
I want you to stand as the next of kin to Late Mr. Howard Clark, it might
interest you to know that he had a Domiciliary Bank Account with our Bank
and he has a total sum of ($5.6M-USD) Five Million Six Hundred thousand
Dollars, this is the exact amount which he had in his domiciliary account
before the ugly incident occurred, and this money is still in his account as
unclaimed money. This transaction is very easy and simple, and it is 100%
risk free.
I'm the Manager for International Relations with Barclays Bank of Ghana
Limited, and the Management and Board of Directors of the Bank are waiting
for me to provide to them the Relation or next of Kin to late Mr. Howard
Clark, of which I told them that I am still searching the next of kin to the
deceased. Finally, if you are interested with this transaction, I will front
you to the bank as the only next of kin to late Mr. Howard Clark, and I will
let the bank know that you are the only right person to inherit Late Mr.
Hamilton Funds and properties. If you are interested, just email me so that
late Mr. Howard's Funds will be credited into your account and all his
Properties will be released to you either through Courier Services or the
Bank will Cargo all his properties to you in any where you want it.
Please reply me immediately and feel free to ask any question with regards
to this transaction. You will take 40% of the US$5.6M, Which is US$2.2M, Two
million two hundred thousand dollars approximate,15% will be for the
expenses, which might be incured during the cause of transactions, while 45%
Balance will be mine. Please do include your direct telephone number and fax
for easy communication as you reply. Your swift response will be highly
appreciated.
Thanks and have a nice day.
Friendly Regards
Mrs.M.Kwame.
