| Message: | Dear Friend,
Pls i am in need of your assistant.
I am Mrs.Owen Jane an account Auditor of Assurance Bank
Of Nig Ltd,Lagos Branch office.
There is this Engineer Grey A. Mark, a National of
your country, who had an account with us
and he worked with an Oil servicing Firm in Nigeria.
He died on a plane clash. Since then I have made several inquiries to
your embassy to locate any of my customer extended
Relatives, this has also proved unsuccessful.
I am contacting you so that you can assist in repatriating the
money and property left behind by my customer before
they Get confiscated or declared unserviceable by
my bank .
Particularly my Bank Manager is yet ignorant of this
said amount because i am the one handling this customer`s for the past
six (6) years before his death.
The deceased had an account Valued at about ($25
million U.S Dollars) in this bank .Now i find out that
if the bank manager comes to understand this floating fund
which i kept secret since some years back they will issued me a notice
of dismiss so i decided to keep this very secret from my
colleague in the bank so that the secret will not be
reveal to the bank manager or to the management.Now i want you to come
in as the next of kin,but please you should not betray me and run away
after the fund has been transfer to your account before my physical
arrival to meet with you for the disbursement.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for
over 2 years now, I seek your consent to present you
as the next of kin to the deceased so that this
account valued at ($25 million U.S Dollars) can be
paid to you .The sharing modality is still open and
negotiatable.All i require is your honest cooperation
to enable me see this deal through. I guarantee that
this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement
that will protect you and me from any breach of the
law.
I am the one that will handle all the expenses during this
transaction until the fund get credited to your bank account
in your country.I will provide you with the TEXT APPLICATION
FORM as soon as i heard from you.
Rgd,
Mrs Owen Jane.
Account auditor
