Subject: CALL ME AFTER GOING THROUGH MY PROPOSAL +226 54632953


Dear Friend,

I am the head of Accounts and Audit Department of Bank of Africa,
Ouagadougou . I decided to contact you after a careful thought that
you may be capable of handling this business transaction which I
explained below;

In my department, I discovered an abandoned sum of $13.5m US dollars
(Thirteen million, five hundred thousand US dollars). In an account
that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his
entire family in 2007 in a plane crash.

Since i got information about his death, The bank have been expecting
his next of kin to come over and claim his money because The fund
cannot be released unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or
relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but
unfortunately I learnt that his supposed next of kin(his son and wife)
died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for
the claim .It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to
make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the
next of kin (I want to present you as his business associate )to the
deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming
for it and I 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 twelve years, the money will be transferred
to another foreigner . The request of foreigner as next of kin in this
business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner
and a Burkina be cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.

I agree that 40% 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 50% 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 your account as arranged, you must apply first to the
bank as next of kin of the deceased customer.

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.

I expect that you contact me immediately as soon as you receive this
letter, and send me your personal data including your scan copy of
your identification for details and continuation of this transaction.

Hoping to hear from you immediately.

Yours faithfully,

Mr.Kabo Uago
