RE: TRANSFER OF US$10.500.000 00 MILLION TO YOUR ACCOUNT.
I feel quite safe dealing with you in this important business. Though this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest medium of communication. However, this correspondence is private, and it should be treated in strict confidence.
At first I will like to assure you that this transaction is 100% risk and trouble free to both parties, In order to transfer out TEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS, (US$10.500 000 00) from our bank here in Burkina Faso .
The fund for transfer is of clean origin. The owner of the fund is a foreigner, a program leader who was
believed to acquire the fund through his secret Crude Oil deal with the Former IRAQ government. The deceased died with all the members of his family in an auto-accident in June 23, 2006 without a WILL. The amount involved is US$10,500,000.00
I want to transfer this money into your account as the foreign beneficiary of the fund. I know that this letter will come to you as a surprise as we don't know ourselves before, BUT BE SURE THAT IT IS REAL AND A GENUINE BUSINESS. I CONTACT YOU BELIEVING THAT YOU WILL NOT LET ME DOWN ONCE THE FUND GOES INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.
