Subject: With Regards
From: Mr.Ibrahim Haatso
Accra , Ghana .
Â
Good day,
Â
I got your contact during my search for a reliable, honest
and a trust worth person to entrust this huge transfer project with.Â
Â
My name is Mr.Ibrahim Haatso, Branch manager of a financial
institution here in Ghana .
I am a Ghanaian married with four kids. I am writing to solicit your assistance
in the transfer of $6,720,000.00 Million United States dollarsÂ
Â
This fund is the excess of what my branch in which am the
manager made as profit during the 2007 financial year. I have already submitted
annual report for that year to my head office here in Accra as I have watched with keen interest as
they will never know of this excess. I have since, placed this amount of $
6,720,000.00 Million United
States dollars only to an Escrow Coded
account without a beneficiary (anonymous) to avoid trace.
Â
As an officer of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to
this money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive this
money into your bank account on my behalf. I intend to part 25% of this fund to
you while 75% shall be for me. I do need to stress that there are practically
no risk involved in this. Itâs going to be a bank-to-bank transfer.
Â
All I need from you is to stand as the original depositor of
this fund so that the fund can be transferred to your account. If you accept
this offer, I will appreciate your timely response urgently on my direct
alternative email ID (haatso_ibgh@latinmail.com) with your contact phone
number, if you think we can work together, so that we move over to the
details.Â
Â
With Regards,
Mr.Ibrahim Haatso.
