ive just recieved the below e.mail, and a fair few others have from what i can tell by the headers
Attn:
After a discreet but thorough research and based on
the impressive information by your profile through the
web site,I am with absolute confidence in the legality
and Intergrity of your person to present this business
and seek for your assistance on trust and sense of
purpose.
Briefly I am Mr.joseph egbujor,(manager),Bill and
Exchange in the foreign remittance department of
International Bank of Africa Accra-Ghana.In my
department,we discovered an abandoned sum of 9.5
million US dollars (Nine million Five hundred Thousand
US dollars),in an account that belongs to one of our
foreign customers Mr. Martin Greenberg,who was among
the victims of EgyptAir Flight 990,that crashed on the
31st of Oct.1999 in America.
Since we got the urgly information about his death,we
have been expecting his next of Kin to come over and
claim this money as it can not be released unless
somebody applies for it as next of Kin or relation to
the deceased as indicated in our banking and financial
guide lines and laws,but unfortunately we learnt that
his supposed next of kin or relation died along side
with him in the accident leaving no body behind to
make claim of the money in question.It is therefore
upon this discovery that I and a partner in my
department now decided to make this business proposal
to you and release the money to you as the next of kin
or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent
disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we
don’t want this money to go into the Bank treasury as
unclaimed bills.
The Banking law and guidelines here stipulates that if
such money remained unclaimed after four years,the
money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as
unclaimed fund.
The request for a foreigner as next of kin in this
business is occasioned by the fact that the customer
was a foreigner and an indigene cannot stand as next
of kin to the deceased family.I therefore wish to
contact you and seek for your assistance,to help me
claim this money from the bank and transfer it into
your company or private account.You will equally make
an arrangement for me to visit your country for
disbursement after the money must have been
transferred.
We have agreed that 25% of the total money will go to
you for all your pains and assistance.5% will be set
aside for expenses(both local and internal)incurred in
the course of this transaction and 70 % would be for
me and my colleagues.
To enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you
as arranged,you must apply first to the Bank as the
relation or next of kin to the deceased indicating
your private telephone and fax numbers for easy and
effective communication and location where the money
will be remitted.
I will not fail to bring to your notice that this
transaction is hitch free and that you should not
entertain any atom of fear as all required
arrangements have been made for the transfer,but
should remain confidential between us.You should
please contact me immediately as soon as you go
through the message in the hope that we can enter into
a good business venture.
May God be with you.
Regards,
joseph egbujor.
