ATTN: I want to transfer Â35.700,000.00USD Thirty Five million seven hundred thousand Pounds,I am seeking for a reliable person who will be capable to provide either an existing bank account or set up a new or empty Bank account immediately to receive this fund. I am Dr Bruce williams, An accountant and bank manager Corporate (BANK OF SCOTLAND, LONDON), During the course of our auditing I discovered a floating fund in adomiciliary account opened in the bank in 1997 and since 2000 nobody has operated on this account, After going through some old files, i discovered that the owner of the account who is a foreigner died without any traceable next of kin hence the dormant nature of the account and if I do not remit this money out urgently it will be re- channeled into the bank's reserve. I suggest we start the first transfer with [Â20,000.000] And upon the successful transfer of the first Â20 million without disappointment from you, I shall re-apply for the remittance of the balance of the fund to your nominated account. On the conclusion of this business, You will be given 15% of the total amount, 80% will be for me,while 5% will be for expenses both parties might have incurred during the process of this transaction. I look forward to your earliest reply. Best Regard, Dr Bruce williams.
