My Dear Friend,
My name is Mr. Robert Carlos I am the regional manager of the
Financial Institution Tema Accra Ghana, I got your information during
my search through the Internet. I came to know you in my Private
Search for a reliable and reputable person to handle this confidential
transaction. I write you this proposal in good faith. I have a
financial transaction that will benefit both of us.
On the 4th of August 2015, a Switzerland Oil consultant/Merchant with
the Ghana Petroleum and Chemical Corporation (G.P.C.C) by name Mr.
Chris Peppos made a fixed deposit of Fifteen Million Eight Hundred and
Fifty Thousand United State Dollars ($15,850,000.00) in my branch.
Upon maturity, I sent a notification letter to him via his address but
got no reply. After a month, I sent a reminder and finally discovered
that Mr. Chris Peppos is dead. He died on a ghastly motor accident,
and since then all attempts made to trace his relations were fruitless
neither has anyone shown up as his next of kin to claim his money.
However, Ghana Banking laws states that, if such money remains
unclaimed for the period of four (6) years, the money will be
transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund.Therefore, my
proposal is that hence nobody has showed up as a next of kin to
Mr.Chris Peppos, I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the
next of kin to Mr. Chris Peppos to claim this fund for our mutual
benefit.Be informed that the reason for a foreigner as next of kin in
this deal is necessary given the fact that the customer was a
foreigner and a Ghanaian cannot stand as his next of kin.
I will give you 50% of this money for your assistance while 10% will
be set aside for expenses incurred during the execution of this deal
and 50% will be for me.Upon your acceptance, I shall provide you with
more details and relevant documents that will enable you stand firmly
as the next of kin to Mr. Chris Peppos. Should this be acceptable to
you, kindly indicate in writing and confirm the following:please do
contact me on my private email([email protected])
Full Name:………………………………………
Contact Address:…………………………………
Direct Telephone Number:…………………………
Age:…………………………………………..
Occupation and Position:…………………………
Marriage Status:………………………………..
Gender:………………………………………..
ID Card Photo:………………………………….
I want to emphasize here that this deal is free from any form of risk
from both parties as great care has been exercised in perfecting
it,and therefore, I enjoin you to approach it with an open mind and
without any fear whatsoever. As a deal, I also make haste to advice
that you should be private about it.
Best Regards,
Mr. Robert Carlos
