which I am the manager made FOUR MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
(4, 500.000.00)
which the head office are not aware of and will never be aware of as
this money was deposited by one Mr. Andrew whom we have not seen for
more than three ]years and was notified that he is dead as a result of
fire Outbreak and no next of kin for claims

dead and we are still looking for the next of kin for claims. We are
going to share the funds 50/50 as soon as it is transferred into your

will be bank to bank transfer and if you wish like coming to Ghana you

All i need from you is to stand and claim the as the next of kin to
the original depositor of this funds with our branch so that the head
office can order the transfer to your designated bank account .If you
accept this offer to work with me, I will appreciate it very much as I
want to invest in REAL ESTATE in your country that is why I have to
contact you for this transaction. As soon as I receive your response

successfully.
