Subject: Beneficial Proposal
Hello Dear Friend,
I have a proposal for you - this however is not mandatory nor will I in any
manner compel you to honor against your will. I am 50year, and work with a
bank
(one of the African leading banks in the West Coast) Here in this bank
existed a
dormant account for the past 8 years which belong to a American national who
is
now late Mr.Raymond Beck Mrs. Dorene Beck who died on Egypt Air Flight 1990
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/502503.stm When I discovered that
there had been no deposits nor withdrawals from this account for this long
period, I decided to carry out a system investigation and discovered that
non of
the family member nor relations of the late person is aware of this
account.This
is the story in a nutshell. Now I want an account overseas where the bank
will
transfer this funds.Thereafter, I had planned to destroy all related
documents
for this account. It is a careful network and for the past eleven months I
have
worked out everything to ensure a hitch-free operation.The amount is not so
much
at the moment and plus all the accumulated interest the balance in this
account
stands at (US$ 10.5 million US dollars).
Now our questions are:
1. Can you handle this project?
2. Can I give you this trust?
3. What will be your commission?
If you can sponsor this transfer Consider this and get back to us as soon as
possible through this email:: mr_awudu@live.com
Finally, it is my humble
prayer that the information as contained herein be accorded the necessary
attention, urgency as well as the secrecy it deserves. I Expect your urgent
response if you can handle this project
Regards,
Awudu Ibrahim.
