Attn: Sir,
I am the Foreign Exchange Manager of STANDARD BANK of SOUTH AFRICA PRETORIA . In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of USD $30. MILLION US DOLLARS
(THIRTY MILLION, US DOLLARS). In an account that belong to one of our foreign customer, who died along with his wife and and Two childred in January 2000 in KENYA AIRWAYS PLANE CRASH. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin died alongside with him in the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I in my department now decided to make this business proposals to you and release the money to you as next of kin or relation 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 Guidelines here stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed after five years, the money will be forfeited into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner in this transaction is necessary because our client was a foreigner and a South Africa cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. I agree that 35% of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 5% for incidental expenses and 60% would be for me, after which I shall visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated.
Therefore to enable the immediately transfer of this fund to your account as arranged, you must apply first to the bank and send your account number, your bank fax and phone numbers, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where the money will be remitted.
Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or e,mail the Text of the Application. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is 100% risk-free, and it would take Ten(10) working days for the fund to be credited into your account. As all required arrangements have made for the transfer.
You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter. Trusting to hear from you immediately. I expect your urgent reply.
Best regards. GODBLESS YOU
Mr ANDREW WILLAMS.
Foreign Exchange Manager
