YOUR QUICK REPLY NEEDED...... From: Mr. Ousman Dabi, Bill and Exchange manager, Bank Of Africa Ouagadougou Burkina Faso.
My dear,
I
chose to reach you through this medium because it is the fastest and
most reliable way of communication, as I wish to solicit for your urgent
assistance in what I strongly believe will be of great benefit to both
of us.
I am Mr. Ousman Dabi,
an Accounts Manager with BANK OF AFRICA in Burkina Faso. The issue I am
presenting to you is a case of one of my late customer, a national of
USA who died in a plane crash leaving an unclaimed treasury bills
(Bonds) with my bank.
In 2003, my late customer invested in
treasury bill bonds here in my Bank in Ouagadougou totalling 25.5
million USA Dollars ($25.500,000.00) which was due to be collected in
2007 with
accrued dividends. On my yearly appraisal of my customers at the turn of
every year, I discovered that this fixed deposit remained overdue for
retrieval. I had put up series of mails and bank notifications to him
which were sent Back uncollected. I later discovered that he passed on
along with his wife and his relations in a tragic air crash.
Since
his death, I have managed his account expecting any of his extended
relatives to come forward to claim his money but all attempts to trace
his relatives over the years has been fruitless since he did not declare
any of his relative's information in his banking records with us. Added
to this professional ethics obligates us to act with extreme
confidentiality when dealing with clients accounts of this type.
According
to the banking law, the money will be bequeathed to the government if
it remains unclaimed with the next couple months.
However, I
don't belong to that
school of thought who proposes that the fortunes of unlucky people be
given to the government and I am fully convinced that no one would turn
up to execute the letter of Administration to claim his funds before
the next 2 months. Hence, I decided to contact you to come in as the
next of kin to my late customer so that the funds totalling
$25,500,000.00 can then be transferred to your nominated bank account in
your country within 20 working days after we have filed in your claims
transfer application to the bank.
I will prepare every operation
that will assist you to claim the funds as the next of kin and
everything will be left between you and me. The Share would be 40% for
you and 60% for me.
Again, I feel that you may be apprehensive
and consider this amount too big for you to defend. It does not matter,
as there are documents to back it up. This transaction is risk free and
as the most senior account manager with the
bank is rest assured that all documents to enable you get this fund as
the next of kin will be carefully worked. Do not be bothered that you
are not related in any way to my late customer as I am in position to
affix your name as the next of kin.
Kindly send your reply enclosing;
Your Full Names........................ Mailing Address ......................... Phone Number ......................... Age........................... ................. Occupation.................... ............. to my private email address mr.ousmandabi@work-8.co.cc
for confidentiality, to enable me talk to you before I send you the
certificate of deposit and other relevant information relating to this
fund transfer.
I need not emphasize the confidentiality of this issue and I therefore appeal to you not discuss this request with anybody,
even if you decline to take full advantage of this great and urgent opportunity in my bank.
I look forward to your quick reply to my Privat email address: mr.ousmandabi@work-8.co.cc Sincerely,
