Urgent reply

Dear Friend,

Greetings and how are you doing? I am Mr. Ahmed Ali Belo. a banker by profession from Burkina-Faso in West Africa and currently holding the post of Manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of Bank of Africa, I have the opportunity of transferring the abandon funds ($31.5 Million USD) of one of my banks client who died along with his entire family on 6th December 2003 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 somebody applies for as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines 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.

The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after Eight to Nine years or above, the money will be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. I agree that 40 % of this money will be for you as foreign partner in respect to the provision of a foreign account, and while 60 %would be for me.

There after I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relations or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your private telephone for easy and effective communication and location where the money will be remitted. Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by email the text of the application, I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch free and that you should no entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer.

Please treat this business with utmost confidentiality and you should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.

Please make sure you keep this transaction as your top secret and make it confidential till we receive the fund into the account that you will provide to the Bank. Don't disclose it to anybody, because the secrecy of this transaction is as well as the success of it.

I am waiting to hear from you urgently.
Yours faithfully,
Mr. Ahmed Ali Belo.
