Hello Dear,
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 this is real and genuine.
My name is Mr Mark Smith .I am the manager of a one the leading banks here in the England,
I am married with two kids. I am writing to solicit your assistance in the transfer of US$ 9,500,000.00.
This fund is the excess of what my branch in which I am the manager made as profit during the last year. I have already submitted an approved end of the year report for the year 2014 to my head office and they will never know of this excess. I have since then, placed this amount of US$ 9,500,000.00 on a suspense account without a beneficiary.
As an officer of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to this money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive this money into your bank account. I intend to part 30% of this fund to you while 70% shall be for me.
I do need to stress that there are practically no risk involved in this, It's going to be a
bank-to-bank transfer.
All I need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund. If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response.
Best Regards,
Mr Mark Smith
