My name is Dr.ISMAIL Muhammad Ulusow, 53 years old and the branch manager of Barakat Bank of Somalia (Mogadishu). I would like to know if I can trust you with a huge sum of
money.
If "YES", Insha Allah, I think you and I can be good business partners in the name of Allah.The amount involved is $5,000,000.00(five million United States Dollars).
Following the release of 2nd quarter financial report, ending June 2006, I discovered that my branch made Five Million United States Dollars ($5,000,000.00, from the transactions accrued from the account of the Inland
Revenue Services. This amount was not discovered by the renowned auditors from the Bank Head Office.
I have moved this fund into what the bank call Escrow Call Account with no Beneficiary. Meanwhile as you know I cannot be directly connected to this money for obvious reasons. So my contacting you is for you to assist me receive this fund in your bank account in your country; which I know is possible if you corporate with me properly and you will get 25% of the total fund as your benefit.
I know this proposal may come to you as a surprise considering the fact that we have not met each other before but all the same I would want you for the sake of Almighty Allah to give this an urgent attention in view of the fact that the security of our lives and properties are at risk due to war in Somalia. For the moment i am serving my annual leave in London and will resume work after one month that is why i need you give this proposal an urgent attention.
I humbly refer you to the websites below for more information of what is happening in Somalia about the war:
