Good Day,
Although, I do not know you in person, I got your contact via personal
search on the internet, Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr.George
Thabo a banker in the ABSA Bank Ltd, South Africa. I have a profitable
transaction for you. I was attending a business luncheon in September 1999
in china and I was introduced to Mr. Andreas Schranner, a renowned German
Real Estate/Property magnate. He later employed my services as a banker
and investment Consultant, Three months later he invited me and told me of
his desire to open a fixed
deposit account, he could fall back to on retirement, under my
professional guidance and based on my advice he made a fixed deposit of
US14,700,000(Fouteen Million Seven Hundred Thousand United States Dollars)
in one of our branches.
This deposit was for 5 years and upon maturity I made effort to contact
my client, l could not reach him. I was forced to travel to Germany and
there I got the tragic news that, my client Mr. Andreas Schranner, his
wife Maria, their daughter Andrea Eich, his son in law Christian, and
their children Maximilian and Katharina, all perished in the Monday, 31
July, 2000 plane crash in
western German city of Moenchengladbach.

After further investigation, l also discovered that Mr. Andreas Schranner
did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the
paper work of his bank deposit. And l remember he also confided in me the
last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit
in my bank. So,Fourteen Million Seven Hundred Thousand United States
Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to
claim it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my
country at the expiration of a numbers of years the funds will revert to
the ownership of the South African Government as unclaimed funds if nobody
applies to claim the funds.Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is
that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Mr.
Andreas Schranner so that you will be able to receive his funds. Should
you be interested please send me your full names and Direct Telephone and
Fax Numbers, and I will prefer you to reply me on my personal email
address below:Email:{georgethabo1@gmail.com} then I shall provide you with
more
details of this Transaction. Please also note that I am willing to give
you 25% of the total Money for your assistance.
Your earliest response to this proposal will be appreciated.
Be well and God Bless.
Best Regards,
George Thabo.
