FROM THE DESK OF MR FRANK PUBUDU. BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER, BANK OF AFRICA ( B.O.A ) OUAGADOUGOU-BURKINA FASO. I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittanc e department of BANK OF AFRICA PLC. I am writing to seek your cooperation over this business deal. In my department, I discovered an abandoned sum of $14million USD (Fourteen Million United States Dollars)only , in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his entire family in a plane crash that took place in Kenya,East Africa,the Late DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY,a citizen of Atlanta,United States of America but naturalized in Burkina faso,West Africa and contractor with ECOWAS,(ECONOMIC COMMUNITY OF WEST AFRICAN STATES) . Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because it cannot be released unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately , all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you via your foreign bank account as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and this money Could go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. The Banking law and guideline here stipulate that if such money remained unclaimed after 12 years, the money will be transferred into the Bank's treasury as unclaimed fund.The request for your assistance and maximum co-operation as a foreign citizen to stand as the next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. 40 % of this money will be for you as my foreign partner,in respect to the provision of a foreign account. 5 % will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 55 % would be for me.There after I will come over to your country for disbursement according the percentages indicated.Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged,you must apply first to the bank as the relation or next of kin to the deceased,indicating your claims and where in the money will be remitted.
