*Dear Friend,*
*I hope this may not constitute sort of embarrassment to you.*
*My name is Nobert Johnson,the Group Finance Director,Agricultural
Development Bank Ghana. I came to know you in my private search for a
reliable and reputable person with whom to work out a confidential
transaction.*
*There is an account opened in this bank in 2003 and since my inception into
office in 2007,no body has operated on this account.After a thorough
monitoring & investigation, I discovered that the owner is deceased; and
nobody comes to claim the money because the depositor deposited the funds
without a next of kin!*
*If I do not remit this money out urgently the money would be confiscated by
the Government.*
*I seek your consent & cooperation to transfer the money to your designated
account or into an account you deem secure in your country.I would come over
for sharing. *
*The amount is US$17 Million.*
*Please, know that 30% will be for your share.Get back to me urgently for
further details.*
*Best Regards*
*Mr Nobert.*
