From Mr. David Dickson E104/3 Independence Avenue- Accra - Ghana.Occupations: External AuditorTel: +233 240659076 +233 271919851Fax: +233 271919728
Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics although, I wish to use this medium to get in touch with you first because it's fastest means.
I am an extenal auditor of the prime banks here in Ghana. In one of our peroidic auditing I discorved a dormant accounts with holding balance of $126,000,000.00 (One Hundred and Twenty Six Million United States Dollars) which has not been operated for the past three years. From my investigations and confirmations, the owner of this account, a foreigner by name Mr. Carl J. Winkler,until his death he was the manager of Gold Fields Ghana Ltd, died with the family in Air France Flight AF4690 plane crashed in July 19,2005 and since then nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money because he has no family members who are aware of the existence of neither the account nor the funds. I have secretly discussed this matter with a top senior minister official of the federal ministry of finance who I must involve in order to have a smooth and a successful transfer of the fund to any foreign bank account which you are going to nominate.
We thus propose to do business with you,standing in as the next of kin of these funds from the deceased and after due legel processes have been followed the fund will be released to your account without deley and we will use it for investment and to assist the less privelaged in the society. The banking ethics here does not allow such money to stay more than Four years without claim hence the money will be recalled to the government treasury as unclaimed after this long period of dormancy.
Upon the receipt of your reply, I will send to you detailed information about the transaction. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is 100% risk and trouble free and you should not entertain any fear as all modalities for fund transfer can be finalized within 10 to 14 banking days, after you apply to the bank as the beneficiary of the fund from the deceased. At the conclusion of the transfer, I will give you 30% for your corporation,65% of the fund will be for me and my partners,5% will be for expenses both parties might have incurred during this process. On receipt of your response I will furnish you with detailed clarification as it relates to this mutual benefit transaction.
I look forward to your urgent Response,
Kind regards,David Dickson.
