I am sorry for the embarrassment this mail might cause you, as we have
not met before. I am Mr.George Phillips, a Bank Accountant. I am
writing to solicit your assistance in the transfer of $27.597Million United
States dollars. This fund is the excess of what my branch made as profit
during the 2005 financial year. I have already submitted annual report for
that year to my head office as I have watched with keen interest as the
bank will never know of this excess fund, I placed this amount of
$27.597Million United States dollars to an Escrow Coded account without a
beneficiary (anonymous) to avoid trace.I do need to stress that there are
practically no risk involved in this transaction.It's going to be a
bank-to-bank transfer.
As an officer of the bank, I cannot be
directly connected to this money due to civil service code which form its
civil servants from owing or operating foreign currency account coupled
with the fact that the fund is huge thus I am impelled to request for your
assistance to receive this money into your bank account on my behalf I
intend to part 50% of this fund to you while 50% shall be for me. All I
need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund so that
the fund can be legally processed to your name and be transferred to your
account without any problem. If you accept this offer, I will appreciate
your timely response with your contact phone and fax numbers so that I can
give you more details to enable us proceed.
With Regards, Mr.George Phillips
