FROM THE DESK OF MR JOHN WILLIAM
BILLS AND EXCHANGE MANAGER,
BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A)
OUAGADOUGOU-BURKINA FASO.
Dear Friend,
I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance
department
of BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A) here in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. In my
department we discovered an abandoned sum of US$30m dollars (THIRTY
Million
US dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer
(MR.
ENGR. STEVEN MOORE, AUSTRALIA) who died along with his entire family
in
Jully 2000 in a plane crash.
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his
next of
kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it
unless
some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as
indicated in our banking guidlings and laws but unfortunately we learnt
that
all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the
plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon
this
discovery that I 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 bill.
The banking law and guidline here stipulates that if such money
remained
unclaimed after five years, the money will be transfered into the bank
treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in
this
business is occassioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner
and a
Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
I agree that 30% of this money will be for you as a respect to the
provision
of a foriegn account , 10% will be set aside for expenses incurred
during
the business and 60% would be for me Thereafter, I will visit your
country
for disbursement according to the percentage indicated Therefore, to
enable
the immediate transfer of this fund to you arranged,you must apply
first to
the bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased indicating your
bank
name, your bank account number, your private telephone and fax number
for
easy and effective communication and location where in the money will
be
remitted.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text
of
the application . I will not fail to bring to your notice 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. You should
contact
me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Yours Faithfully,
MR JOHN WILLIAM.
