I am Mr.ADBDUL FOMAROU, Manager, Bill And Credit Dept of BANK OF AFRICA (BOA) here in Burkina Faso.Here is a 100% concealed and mutually profitable business proposal for you. After the United States and Iraqi war, our client who was business man made a numbered of deposit with a value of ($11.2M)ELEVEN MILLION TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND UnitedState Dollar only with our Bank here in Burkina Faso. We later found out that the Customer has been assasinated (Killed) in Baghdad.
After further investigation, it was also discovered that client did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in our bank. So, ($11.2m) million United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. I will like you as a neutral person to stand in as the next of kin to the deceased so that you will be able to receive his funds with my assistance as the insider.
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out and i have done all the undergrand work of this business so that we come out successful. There are no risks involved in the matter, in as much as you follow up my instructions and
directives as an insider, we will achieve our aim.
Once the fund have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall share in the ratio of 60% for me, 40% for you.If you are interested, explain more about yourself and send me your private phone and fax numbers for easy communication,and i will provide you with more details of this transaction .
