Mr. William G. Botsford,
Managing Director,
Barclays Bank Plc,
London, EC1N 8DN.
United Kingdom.
Dear Friend,
I am Mr. William G. Botsford, Managing Director, Barclays Bank Plc, London, United Kingdom. I am
writing following an opportunity in my office that will be of immense benefit to both of us.
On January 11th 2000, a German estate tycoon, late Mr. Andreas Schranner, deposited Ј10,000,000
(Ten Million British Pounds Sterling) under our portfolio management department for a period of Two
(2) years, and the deposit matured on the 18th of February 2002 with over 100% growth which
amounted to a total of Ј20,520,000 (Twenty Million, Five Hundred and Twenty Thousand British Pounds
Sterling).
Upon maturity, a routine notification was sent to his forwarding address all to no avail. Several
attempts were made to contact him but without responses. After a month, another reminder was sent
to him from my desk and evidently I discovered from his contract employers that Mr. Andreas
Schranner died in the plane crash of Air France Concorde flight 4590 which crashed on July 25th
2000. On further indebt investigation, I discovered that he died with his wife and entire family,
as all efforts to trace members of his neither family nor relatives proved futile. You shall read
more about the crash on visiting this site. Http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
Mr. Andreas Schranner, has long passed away and since his death none of his next-of-kin or
relations has come forward to lay claims for this money as the heir. He died without identifying
with anybody about these funds, which has since matured and the roll-over on the funds also
expired. This sum of Ј20,520,000 (Twenty Million, Five Hundred and Twenty Thousand British Pounds
Sterling) is still in my possession in my Bank lifeless and unnoticed because there will never be a
claim on the funds. All material, immaterial documents and certificates relating to the funds is
also in my possession.
Against this backdrop, I am proposing to you to stand in as the next of kin to Late Mr. Andreas
Schranner. The banking law and guidelines here stipulates that at the expiration of eight (8) years
such funds will be transferred into banking treasury as unclaimed funds. The money will be approved
into your account and subsequently, we shall share in the ratio: 60% for us and 40% for you as
gratification for assistance rendered. I will visit your country for the disbursement, according to
the percentages indicated above once this money gets into your account.
I humbly crave your indulgence in portraying sincerity towards this matter, as trust stands to be
our watchword in this transaction. Our assurance is that your role is risk free to accord this
transaction the legality it deserves as with all modalities put in place we are certain in
actualizing a hitch free transfer of the funds without any impediments. My position with my bank
already guarantees the swift execution of this project. We will discuss much in details when I do
receive your response. Kindly signify your willingness to assist by sending me an email for further
procedures relating to this transaction.
Kind regards.
Mr. William G. Botsford.
