Subject: HELLO
Hello Comrade,
It is my pleasure to communicate this idea to you through this medium
believing that you will take your time to properly study the facts contained
in the message.
Although the report of rampant Internet scams and stuffs have virtually made
it almost impossible for anybody to trust or even believe any business
package coming from the Internet. However I sincerely believe that we can
still repose confidence in each other and get good results.
Honestly I have privileged information of an account in the dormant section
of the bank where I work, that has credit balance of Six million, two
hundred United States dollars but has not been operated on since 2003. This
said account is an individual account and from all indications the account
owner appears to be no more or has problem some where.
In view of this prevailing situation I have nurtured a deal, which if well
executed will change our economic status in no distant time. In the event
where we agree to work together to pull-out some money from said account I
will release the dormant section of the bank's database information to you
so that you can access and view said account balance/statement online
before we can begin any arrangement. The essence of this is to ensure that
you divorce my proposal from all these Internet frauds and scams that are
all over the place. I choose to make contact through the Internet because
there is no other easy means through which I could have been exposed to
choice of selection of a sincere person needed for this very confidential
proposal.
THE PROCEDURAL ARRANGEMENT IS AS FOLLOWS;
1. Since the account in question is an individual account, I will register a
company here with similar name and a corporate account will be established
in that company name in my bank whereas you will be a signatory to the
corporate account so established. Signature specimen card and passport
photograph in the individual account file will be removed and replaced with
your own to maintain uniform passport photograph and signature with those in
the new corporate account file. The impression here will be that the
abandoned account owner has established a company account with us and now
wishes to transfer the credit balance of the personal account to the
company's new account.
2. Now that the company registration and corporate account establishment are
done with, an advisory letter of ledger to ledger transfer signed by you
will be addressed to my bank requesting us to transfer the credit balance of
your personal account to your company account. As this request will mean
transfer of money from personal account to corporate account of the same
customer we will not encounter any difficulty in honouring the request.
Based on the corporate account you can now comfortably issue us transfer
advice to wire the money to any overseas bank account where we shall pick up
the money for sharing (50/50) Get back to me as soon as possible.
Best Regards,
Sanchest Mojo.
