FROM THE DESK OF DR.RAMADAN ABDU
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER,
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK
OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO.
TEL:00226-78-81-04-32
Dear Friend,
I know that this letter may come to you as a surprise but due to
the urgency of this transaction.
First I must solicit your confidence in this transaction, this is
by virtue of it's nature as being utterly confidential and top
secret. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will
make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that
all will be well at the end of the day. There is no doubt that
trust conceptually is a conundrum which leads itself to deferring
interpretation, we have decided to contact you due to the urgency
of this transaction.
I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance
department of African Development bank (ADB). I came to know you in
my private search for a reliable and reputable person to handle
this Confidential Transaction, which involves the transfer of a
huge sum of money to a foreign account requiring maximum
confidence.
I am writing to you, following the impressive information received
about you from the chambers of commerce. I believed that you are
capable and reliable to champion this business opportunity. In my
department we discovered an abandoned sum of $30m US dollars
(Thirty million US dollars). In an account that belongs to one of
our foreign customer who died along with his entire family On
Monday, 31 July, 2000, 13:22 GMT 14:22 UK, 2000 through concorde
air lane with flight N AF4590 crashed off, killing all 109 people
on board and you can view the site for more details:
news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
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 it 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. It is therefore upon this discovery that I
and other officials 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 Bill.
The Banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money
remained unclaimed after ten years, the money will be transferred
into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner
as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the
customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of
kin to a foreigner.
We agree that 30% of this money will be for you as foreign partner,
in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be set
aside for expenses incurred during the business and 60 % would be
for me and my colleagues. There after I and my colleagues 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 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
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.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this
letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Yours faithfully,
Dr. Ramadan Abdu,
Bill and exchange manager,
African Development bank ADB
