Message body: BANK OF AFRICA 89 AMING LANE
FRIDJEROSSY, COTONOU
BENIN

Dear Sir,

With great honour and previledge, My Name is Richardson Amoah ,a citizen
of Ghana and a credit officer of the Bank of Africa Benin. Our Late
Customer Mr.Sheik Idris Ahmed, who is a national of Iran and who (in this
case I am his account officer) died along with his wife and his Two sons
in a ghastly motor accident along the express way, years Ago.

All the occupants in the vehicle lost their lives. Our late Customer was a
successful and an accomplished family man, He was an Oil
consultant/contractor with the Benin Institute of Mining and Metallurgy.
Before his untimely death,he made a fixed deposit for 18 months with our
bank valued at US$14,500,000.00,fourteen Million,five hundred thousand
United state Dollars).Upon maturity several notice was sent to him, but
all effort proved abortive.

Since then I had made several inquiries through his Embassy to locate any
of his extended relative but this exercise proved unsuccessful. After
several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives through
the Internet, to locate any member of his family not much progress was
recorded.

The board of directors of my bank adopted a resolution,and as the
accounting officer I was mandated to provide his next of kin for the
payment of this money within 28 working days or forfeit the money and then
it will be sent to the government reserve account.Further investigations
revealed that he did not declare any next of kin in his official papers
including the paper work of his bank deposit.

And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one
except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So,Fourteen Million,five hundred
thousand United state Dollars is still lying in my bank, and no one will
ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that, the Directors
of my bank have resolved to invoke the abandoned property decree of 1996
to confiscate the funds on the expiration of the given period, despite my
relentless effort. But as God will have it, I came across you, and to my
utmost happiness, you are a foreigner . My proposal therefore is that I
would like you to stand as the next of kin so that you can receive this
fund.

However,I seek your consent to present you as the Next of Kin to the
Deceased since you are at an advantage as foreigner , I have contacted an
attorney that will prepare the necessary document which will back you up
as the next of kin. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us
see this deal through. I assure you that this will be executed under a
legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of law.

Be Informed also that we shall share the funds in the ratio of 60% for me
and 35% for you, while 5% should be for Expenses or Tax as your Government
may require. Please endeavor to observe utmost confidentiality in all
matters concerning this issue.


I await your urgent response. more importantly reply to this email

Regards
Richardson Amoah
