My Dear,
I am Miss Franka Agali an accounts clerk with ECOBANK of West
Africa-International Remittance Department which has its corporate head office here in Abidjan, Côte d´Ivoire,the bank involves in disbursement of funds to finance United Nation projects and common wealth development projects in Africa.
In the course of my duty, I discovered the total sum of USD
$8,500,000(Eight million Five hundred thousand dollars) in cash for disbursement for a contract that has been concluded. Unfortunately, the beneficiary to that fund is dead.
The fund was deposited in a name of a family with a secret coded
number, which I happened to have in my possession. I have all the necessary information within my disposal to move this fund out of the bank for private use without the knowledge of anybody.
The area of assistance required of you is to front you as the
Beneficiary, so that the fund can be retrieved for onward transfer to your designated bank account overseas.
I shall provide you with detailed information on how to execute this
transaction upon receipt of your reply. I have mapped out 30% for you,65% for me and 5% for reimbursement of both parties for expenses incurred during the pendency of the transaction. Be rest assured that there is no risk involved.
Please contact me through my private Email : franka_agali@yahoo.com
because of the confidentiality required and. I hope to hear from you
soon,Thanks and God bless you.
Yours faithfully,
Miss Franka Agali.
