Best regards!
This mail may be a surprise to you because you did not give me the
permission to do so and neither do you know me but before I tell you
about myself I want you to please forgive me for sending this mail
without your permission. I am writing this letter in confidence
believing that if it is the will of God for you to help me and my
family, God almighty will bless and reward you abundantly. I need an
honest and trustworthy person like you to entrust this huge transfer
project to.
My name is Mr. Thomas Griffin, The Branch Manager of a Financial
Institution. I got your contact through a reliable source called
database through chamber of commerce. I am writing to solicit your
assistance in the transfer of US$5,500,000.00 Dollars. This fund is the
excess of what my branch in which I am the manager made as profit just
last year (i.e. 2023 financial year). After I submitted an annual report
for the last year 24th December 2023 to my head office, I watched with
keen interest as they never knew of this excess. I placed this amount of
US$5,500,000.00 Dollars on an Escrow Coded account without a beneficiary
(Anonymous) to avoid a trace.
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 on my behalf. I agree that 40% of this money will
be for you as a foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a
foreign account, and 60% would be for me and I will join you in your
country once the fund arrives in your account for an investment plan. I
do need to stress that there is practically no risk involved in this.
It’s going to be a bank-to-bank transfer OR E-online Transfer. All I
need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund so that
the fund can be transferred to your account.
If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response to me.
This is why and the only reason why I contacted you, I am willing to go
into partnership investment with you owing to your wealth of experience,
So please if you are interested to assist on this venture kindly contact
me back for a brief discussion on how to proceed.
Best regards,
Mr. Thomas Griffin.
