My Dear Friend,
How are you doing today? I will explain my self little to you before I continue. I am Mrs. Maria Ana Rocha, the Manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of Banco do Brazil (Brazilian National Bank).I am writing to seek your interest over a partnership business transaction.
In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of $4M US dollars (FOUR MILLIONS US DOLLARS). In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer/INVESTOR who died along with his entire family in November 2002 in a plane crash. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless somebody applies for the claim as the next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our Banking guidelines but unfortunately I learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I and my colleague Mr. Robert Araujo Lima, working in the same department have decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don’t want this money to go into the Bank's treasury as unclaimed Bill.
The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after seven years, the money will be transferred into the Bank's treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a citizen of our country cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
We agree that 30 % of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 60 % would be for me and my colleague.
Thereafter I will visit your country for disbursement of the fund according to the percentages indicated in this proposal. Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, You must apply first to the bank as relations or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where in the money will be remitted.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by email the text of the application which you will have to forward to my Bank Foreign Remittance for claim. 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 by me and my colleague in the bank for the smooth and effective transfer of the money into your designated bank account that you you will provide.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately. Time is not a negligible factor in this business because we have limited time at our disposal.
Yours faithfully
Mrs. Maria Ana Rocha,
Bill and Exchange Manager, Banco do Brazil
(Brazilian National Bank)
