I AM TIMM CARRINGTON, AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING UNIT, FOREIGN REMITTANCE
DEPT, ECOBANK PLC, ACCRA, GHANA. I am writing you exclusively following
your impressive profile which I read in the internet; there can be no
doubt about your capability and reliability to champion the successful
transfer of this fund.
In my department, we discovered an abandoned
sum of US$2,500,000.00 (Two Million, Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars)
only, in a fixed deposit belonging to Mr John Bowman who died in an air
mishap along with his wife on the 31st October 1999 in an Egyptian
airline 990 with other passengers on board. Since we got this
information about his death, we have been expecting his next of Kin to
come over and file for claim of the fund because we can not release it
unless somebody applies for it as next of Kin or relation to the
deceased as indicated in our banking and financial policies.
Unfortunately, we learnt that his supposed next of kin or relation died
alongside him in the air said mishap leaving no body behind to claim
the fund.
It's upon this discovery that I and other officials in my
department 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 as nobody has filed for it's claim.
We do not want this fund to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed
bills since Banking laws and guidelines here stipulates that if such
money remained unclaimed after long period (over five (5) years), the
money will go to the Bank's treasury as unclaimed fund.The request for
a foreigner as next of kin in this proposal is necessitated by the fact
that the customer was a foreigner and a local inhabitant here cannot
stand as next of kin to the deceased family. We thus propose to you
that 40% of this money will be for you as our foreign partner in
respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10% will be set aside
for expenses incurred during the processing of this transaction and 50
% would be for me and my colleagues.
Thereafter I and my colleagues
will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages
indicated above. To enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you
as proposed, you must apply first to the Bank as relation or next of
kin of the deceased through an application text which I shall send to
you Upon receipt of your reply by fax or by E-mail attachement; it is
therefore imperative that you indicate your phone and fax numbers. Be
hereby notified that this transaction is 100% hitch free and you should
not entertain any fear as all the required arrangements have been made
for the smooth transfer of this fund.
Please contact me immediately
you receive this letter with the following personal data:
1. Full Name
(s)
2. Your Telephone/Fax Numbers
3. Your Contact Address.
Your prompt
response is highly anticipated.
Cordially,
Carrington.
