Subject: URGENT INVESTMENT BUSINESS DEAL
*Dear Friend,Am Mr.Ossey Willington Managing Director of Emirates NBD Bank
Dubai UAE .I write you this proposal in good faith hoping that I will rely
on you in a business transaction that require absolute confidentiality and
of great interest and benefit to our both families. In 2007,one Mr. Thomas.
An Emirate Citizen whose surname is same as yours and has your country in
his file as his place of origin, made a fixed deposit for 36 months, valued
at US$27,700,000.00 (Twenty seven Million Seven Hundred Thousand United
States dollars only)I was his account officer before I rose to the position
of Managing Director. The maturity date for this deposit contract was 27th
of September 2010.Sadly Mr. Thomas was among the death victims in the
September 2009 earthquake in Indonesia that left over 1,200 people dead
while he was there on business trip. Since the last quarter of 2010 until
today, the management of my bank has been finding means to reach him so as
ascertain if he will roll over the Deposit or have the contract sum
withdrawn. When I discovered that this will happen,I have tried to think up
a procedure to preserve this fund and use the proceeds for business. Some
directors here have been trying to find out from me the information about
this account and the owner, but I have kept it closed because, I know that
if they become aware that Thomas is late, they will corner the funds for
themselves.Therefore, am seeking your co-operation to present you as the
one to benefit from his fund at his death since you have the same name, so
that my bank headquarters will pay the funds into your bank account. I
have done enough inside bank arrangement and you only have to put in your
details into the information network in the bank computers and document
and reflect you as his next of kin beneficiary. If you concur with this
proposal, I intend for you to retain 50% of the funds while 50% shall be
for me. Kindly forward your response to my email
below:([email protected] <[email protected]>) I will be
waiting to hear from you as soon as possible.Best Regards,Mr. Ossey
