Letter From Edward Todd
Office of the Manager,
Natwest Bank London.
Dear Friend,
I am Dr. Edward Todd the Manager of Natwest Bank Plc
London. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for
you. On April 10, 2000, an Iraqi Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with
the BRITISH PETROLUEM CORPORATION Mr. Rahman Ibrahim. Made a numbered
time (Fixed deposit) for 24 calendar months, valued at US$22,400,000.00
(Twenty two Million, Four hundred thousand dollars only) in this bank.
Upon maturity after two year, I sent a routine notification to his
forwarding address but got no reply.
After four month, we sent a
reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the
British petroleum corporation that Mr.Rahman Ibrahim died as a result
of torture in the hand of Sadam Hussein during one of his trips to his
country Iraq. On further investigation, I found out that he died
without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was
fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that
Mr.Rahman Ibrahim did not declare any kin or relations in all his
official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.
This sum of US$22,400,000.00 has been floating as unclaimed since 2000
in my bank as all efforts to get his relatives have hit the stones.
According to the British law at the expiration of 5 (Five) years, the
money will revert to the ownership of the British Government if nobody
applies to claim the fund and the five year shaselapsed, myproposal is
that i want to seek your consent as a foreigner to stand in as the
owner of the money as the next of kin to the deceased so that the bank
will transfer the money to your designated account. All documents and
proof to enable you get this fund will be carefully worked out. I have
secured from the probate an order of mandamus to locate any of the
deceased beneficiaries, and more so I am assuring you that the business
is a risk free involvement.
Your share stays while the rest will be
for me and forinvestment purposes as I will leave London by the end of
the year. Thesharing of the funds will be based according to agreement
between you and me. As soon as i receive an acknowledgement of receipt
of this message in acceptance to our mutual business proposal, I will
furnish you with the necessary modalities and disbursement ratio to
suit both parties without any conflict. If this proposal is acceptable
by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust i have bestowed in
you.
PLEASE, ENDEAVOR TO SEND YOUR CONFIDENTIAL TELEPHONE AND FAX
NUMBER IN YOUR REPLY TO THIS BUSINESS TRANSACTION.
Regards,
Dr.
Edward Todd
