My dear greetings to you ,
My name is Mrs.Aicha Shareef , from Benin Republic a widow. I lost my
husband for so long ,he is a former Consular of the Benin embassy in
Madrid,Spain I have been recently been diagnosed of Cancer of the
pelvis. I am writing from my sick bed.There is this Seventeen Million
Two Hundred Thousand American Dollars my husband has in an account
with the Bank here in Benin Republic of which I am the next of kin.
With my health condition and because my husband and I have no
children,
I am looking for a credible person to whom I will pass the right of
next of kin. This person will apply to the bank and request for the
transfer of the fund to his/her bank account. This is on the condition
that you will take 25% of the fund for yourself, 5% used for expenses,
while you will use the remaining 70% for the less privilege people in
the society. this is in
fulfilment of the last request of my husband that a substantial part
of the fund be used to carter for the less privileged. I cannot do
this my self any more.
I once asked members of my family to close one of my late husband bank
accounts and donate the money which I have there to the less privilege
people in the society; they refused and kept the money to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seems not to be contended
with what I have left for them. If this condition is acceptable to
you, you should contact me immediately with your full names and
contact information
so that I will ask our family lawyer to prepare the authorization that
will give you the right of next of kin to the account in the bank.
I will also give you a text of the application you are to send to the
bank.I cannot predict what will be my faith by the time the fund will
be transferred into your account, but you should please ensure that
the fund is used as I have described above.
Best regards to you and your family,
Mrs.Aicha Shareef.
