Subject: THIS IS IMPORTANT.....GET BACK TO ME URGENTLY.
*Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Ndiora Paul the head of auditing and accounting section of Banque
Togolese Pour Le Commerce Et L'Industrie Lome-Togo ( B.T.C.I LOME,TOGO ) in
West Africa with due respect and regard. I have decided to contact you on a
business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end
of the transaction. But I apologize for this and would humbly wish you
pardon my ignorance and spend some time to think over my proposal.
I have a business proposition for you concerning a deceased person that died
during the Kenya plane crash in East Africa, I discovered an abandoned sum
of (U.S$9.5M UNITED STATES DOLLARS).in an account that belongs to one of our
foreign customers who died along with his entire family Late DR. GEORGE
BRUMLEY a citizen of Atlanta,United States of America.Since our bank got
information about his death, our bank have been expecting his next of kin to
come over and claim his funds because it cannot be released unless somebody
applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in
our banking guidelines but unfortunately,all his supposed next of kin or
relation died along with him in the plane crash leaving nobody behind for
the claim. The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money
remained unclaimed after five years, the money will be transfered into the
federal treasury as unclaimed fund and finally get shared among our corrupt
government officials.I think it will be better for us to put a major part of
this funds into helping people suffering from aids,*
*This has been bothering me for months now and I feel I can share the
suggestion with someone I can trust. I don't know you from Adam but I
believe we can be of mutual benefit to each other. For assisting me, you
will be entitled to 40% of the total principal while we would invest 20% in
charity homes.
Should you be interested, please forward to me this informations,
Please complete this information send to me immediately.
