Subject: Are you capable to assist me?
Dear Sir/Madam,
Please don't be surprise on receipt of this message,I meant no harm at all.I
sent it directly to you though we are both strangers but it doesn't matter
anything as far as we trust each other.
I am Mr.Peter Saiba,the director in charge of Auditing and Accounting
Department of BANK OF AFRICA (BOA)OUAGADOUGOU,BURKINA FASO IN WEST AFRICA,
and also the account officer of (MR.ROBERT RICE FROM OHIO,UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA)who died on 31st of October,1999 in a plane crash.For more
informations about the crash you can visit this site:
http://www.cnn.com/US/9910/31/egyptair.families.02/
Before the death of the deceased (Mr.Robert Rice),he had a fixed deposit
account that worth the sum of US$13.7M (Thirteen Million Seven Hundred
Thousand United States Dollars)with the above mentioned Bank and no other
person outside the bank knows about this account or any thing concerning
it,and since we got information about his death we have been expecting his
next of kin to come over and claim his fund because we cannot release it
unless some body applies for it as next of kin,relation or business partner
to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidlings and laws,but the
account has no other beneficiary because my investigation proved that his
supposed next of kin died along with him in the crash leaving nobody behind
for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business
proposal to you and release the fund to you as the next of kin,relation or
business partner to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement
since nobody is coming for it and i don't want this fund to go into the bank
treasury as unclaimed bill.The banking law and guidline here stipulates that
if such fund remained unclaimed after (12 Years) it will be transfered into
the bank treasury as unclaimed fund,and i don't want that to happen that was
why i offered this to you.I agree that 40% of the fund will be for you as a
compensation for the provision of a foriegn account and your financial
assistance,and 60% would be for me as the originator of the transaction.
As soon as you confirmed the total fund in your account,I will visit your
country for disbursement of the fund according to the percentage indicated
above and for investment too.Also,I will not fail to bring to your notice
that this transaction is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any
atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer.
If you are willing,capable and ready to assist me on this transaction
wholeheartedly,kindly furnish me with the following details as thus:
1.Your full Names:
2.Home or Office Address:
3.Nationality:
4.Age & Sex:
5.Occupation:
Upon receipt of those reguired informations,I will prepared an Application
Of Claim with my position,and submit it to the bank on your behalf as
relation,next of kin or business partner of the deceased for the release of
the fund to your account.
Your prompt reply is highly needed to enable us concludes this transaction
without any delay.my
