Dr.John Zuma,
AMALGAMATED BANK OF SOUTH AFRICA(ABSA Bank Limited),
Johannesburg, South Africa.
Dear Sir,
I am Dr. John Zuma, manager of bills/exchange at
the foreign remittance department of ABSA Bank. In my department,
we discovered an abandoned sum of US$14,700,000.00(Fourteen Million,
Seven Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only) in an account
that belonged to one of our foreign customers who died along with
his entire family, on November 1996, in a ghastly plane crash,and
he happened to be a Foreigner. Since we got the information about
his death, we have been expecting his next-of-kin to come over and
claim his money because we can not release it unless somebody applied
for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in
our banking guidelines. Unfortunately, nobody has come forward to
claim this money. It is based on this that some officials in my
department and I have decided to establish a cordial business relationshipwith
you, hence by contacting you.
We want you to present yourself as the next of kin
through your relation with the deceased, so that the funds can be
remitted into your account.Moreover, we do not want the money to
go into the government account as unclaimed bills. The banking law
and guidelines herestipulates that any account abandoned or is dormant
for a period of years, is deemed closed and all money contained
therein forfeited to the government treasury account.Now, it is
being speculated that the above sum will betransferred into the
government account as an unclaimed fund on or before the end of
this first financial quarter of 2005, when nobody come forward to
lay claims. The reason for requesting you to present yourself as
next of kin, is occasioned by, the fact that the deceased (customer)
was a foreigner, and we have access to his detailed bio data which
you will hold as a weapon to present yourself as the next of kin.
The mode of sharing after a successful transfer
of the money into your account, shall be 70% to my colleagues and
I, for the role you will be expected to play in this deal, we have
agreed to give you 25% of the total sum and 5% for the expenses
we are going to encounter by the two parties in the course of this
transaction. Therefore, you are expected to reply this letter indicating
your readiness and interest to participate in this business. After
receiving your reply, you will be communicated to with the exact
steps to take. I expect your urgent response through my email address.And
I shall contact you for further discussion on this matter,to enable
us conclude this transaction urgently without any delay or hitch.
Please treat this business proposal as strictly confidential for
security reasons considering my official position in ABSA Bank.
Personal Regards,
Dr.John Zuma. |
