department Bank of African, I need your urgent assistance in transferring the
sum of $17, 200, 000.00 (Seventeen Million Two Hundred Thousand United States

belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his entire family in

Audit of the year against 2006 informed clearly that it
was stated in our Foreign banking rules and regulations, which was signed
lawfully that if such fund remains unclaimed till the period of 3 years started
from the date when the beneficiary died, the money will be transferred into the
Government treasury as an unclaimed fund.

the rules guiding our bank for a citizen of Burkina Faso to make the claim of
the fund unless you are a foreigner, no matter the country you come from, thatâs

the fund smoothly into your reliable bank account as the next of kin to the
