My Dear, I am MRS JOYCE ZUMA, The bill and exchange manager in African Development Bank., Cotonou, Benin Republic in West Africa. I am writing in respect of a foreign customer of our Bank (Mr Jang Seajoon) who perished along with his next of kin with Korean Air Line, flight number 801 with the whole passengers on 6th of august 1997 and for your perusal you can view this site: http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9708/06/guam.passenger.list Since the demise of this our customer, I personally have watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds of US$35M (Thirty five million United States Dollars) which has been with our branch for a very long time. On this note, I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used as the Next of Kin since nobody is coming for the fund again. The Banking ethics here do not allow such money to stay more than 10 years, because the money will be recalled to our Banks treasury as unclaimed fund after this period. In view of this, I contacted a friend of mine who works with the Chamber of Commerce and Industries to assist me in getting a reliable and trusted partner who would submit an application as the next of kin or business partner to the late customer of the bank. The reason for a foreigner in the business is for the fact that the deceased man was a foreigner and it is not authorized by the law guiding our Bank for a citizen of this country to make the claim of the fund.So the request for you as a foreigner to come into the business is necessary, it will facilitate the release and transfer of the funds smoothly to your nominated bank account as the only surviving relation/partner to the deceased. If you can conveniently assure me of your ability to keep this business very secret and confidential, you can write back to me giving me your telephone/fax numbers so that I can send to you the specimen application for claims which you have to send to our bank. Please, note that upon the successful transfer of the funds to your bank account, you shall be entitled to 30% of the total funds while the rest will be given to me on arrival in your country. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is risk free and doesn't have any negative implication Waiting for your urgent response and please kindly delete if you are not interested.
