FROM THE DESK OF MR HENRY WAX
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER
BANK OF AFRICA. 
OUAGADOUGOU,BURKINA FASO.


                                       TOP SECRET

DEAR FRIEND,

I AM  MR HENRY WAX THE BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER AT THE FOREIGN
 REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT OF BANK OF AFRICA. 

I GOT YOUR CONTACT FROM THE INTERNET ,WHILE SEACHING FOR AN HONEST AND
 TRUST WORTHY PERSON, WHO WILL ASSIST ME TO IMPLEMENT THIS TRANSFER.

I DISCOVERED THE SUM OF TWENTY TWO MILLION AND FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
 UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD22.5M) BELONGING TO A DECEASED CUSTOMER OF THIS
 BANK. 

THE FUND HAS BEEN LYING IN A SUSPENCE ACCOUNT WITHOUT ANYBODY COMING TO
 PUT CLAIM OVER THE MONEY SINCE THE ACCOUNT OWNER LATE MR SALLA KHATIF
 FROM LEBANESE, 
WHO WAS INVOLVED IN THE DECEMBER 25TH  2003 BENIN PLANE CRASH.

HERE IS THE AIR CRASH  WEBSITE ON  
 CNN=HTTP://WWW.CNN.COM/2003/WORLD/AFRICA/12/26/BENIN.CRASH/INDEX.HTML THE
 SAID FUND IS NOW READY FOR TRANSFER TO A FORIEGN ACCOUNT WHOSE OWNER
 WILL BE PORTRAYED AS THE BENEFICIARY AND NEXT OF KIN TO THE DECEASED
 CUSTOMER OF THE BANK. 

SINCE WE GOT INFORMATION ABOUT HIS DEATH, WE HAVE BEEN EXPECTING HIS
 NEXT IF KIN TO COME OVER AND CLAIM HIS MONEY BECAUSE WE CANNOT RELEASE IT
 UNLESS SOMEBODY APPLIES FOR IT AS NEXT OF KIN OR RELATION TO THE
 DECEASED AS INDICATED IN OUR BANKING GUIDLINES AND LAWS BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE
 LEARNT THAT 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 DECIDED TO MAKE THIS
 BUSINESS PROPOSAL TO YOU AND RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU AS THE NEXT OF KIN OR
 RELATION TO THE DECEASED FOR SAFETY AND SUBSEQUENT DISBURSEMENT SINCE
 NOBODY IS COMING FOR IT AND I DON'T WANT THIS MONEY TO GO INTO THE BANK
 TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED BILL. 

THE BANKING LAW AND GUIDLINE HERE STIPULATES THAT IF SUCH MONEY
 REMAINED UNCLAIMED AFTER FIVE YEARS, THE MONEY WILL BE TRANSFERED INTO THE
 BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED FUND.

THE REQUEST OF FOREIGNER AS NEXT OF KIN IN THIS BUSINESS IS OCCASSIONED
 BY THE FACT THAT THE CUSTOMER WAS A FOREIGNER AND A BURKINABE CANNOT
 STAND AS NEXT OF KIN TO A FOREIGNER.  I THEREFORE SOLICITING FOR YOUR
 ASSISTANCE TO COME FORWARD AS THE NEXT OF KIN. 

I HAVE AGREED THAT 40% OF THIS MONEY WILL BE FOR YOU AS THE BENEFICIARY
 IN RESPECT OF THE PROVISION OF YOUR ACCOUNT AND SERVICES RENDERED, 55%
 WOULD BE FOR ME WHILE 5% WILL BE FOR EXPENCSES INCURED DURING THE
 CAUSE OF THIS TRANSACTION IF THE MONEY IS TRANSFERRED TO YOUR ACCOUNT FROM
 BANK OF AFRICA,

I AND MY FAMILY IN THIS TRANSACTION WILL PROCEED IMMEDIATELY TO YOUR
 COUNTRY FOR OUR OWN SHARE OF THE MONEY. 

I EXPECT YOU TO KEEP THIS BUSINESS STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL AND SECRET AS
 YOU MAY WISH TO KNOW THAT I AM BANK OFFICIAL. 

BE REST ASSURED THAT THIS BUSINESS IS 100% RISK FREE ON BOTH SIDE AND
 EVERY ARRANGEMENT TO TRANSFER THIS MONEY TO THE ACCOUNT YOU ARE GOING TO
 PROVIDE HAVE BEEN CONCLUDED PROVIDED WE MAINTAIN THE CONFIDENTIALITY
 AND SECRECEIRITY INVOLVED. 

 I WANT YOU TO TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOUR SELF.

I HAVE SOME QUESTION FOR YOU.

1.ARE YOU MARRIED AND OF WHAT AGE ARE YOU?
2.WHAT DO YOU WISH WE CAN INVEST ON WHEN I WILL COME TO YOUR COUNTRY.
3.ARE YOU READY TO ASSIST ME WITH HONESTLY IN THIS TRANSACTION?
4.ARE THERE THINGS YOU WANT TO ASKED ME?
5.I NEED YOU TO TELL ME WHELTHER YOU ARE CAPABLE OF RECEVING THIS
 AMOUNT OR NOT WHEN TRANSSFERRED.

I am very familiar with the letter above. I could remember my past experiences at the cyberworld my ups and downs (heheh). And the hell on many times I was informed to be a winner of a Lotto , A BMW car, cash of big amounts with none of it I did have joined. At first I was so very happy and shock like a real winner. Of course I am sending all my personal information and requirements needed to claim the prizes. I was even willing to give the amount of money they're asking for processing fees. This persuasions I get I think will keep bothering me until now if not I am very fortunate to be a poorboy. Being one gives me time figuring out how to get money for processing fee to claim the prize. I never think it helps me also to figure out the scammed. I dont wanna belief it to be a scammed, this winning is the key of having a gracious life everyman ever want, lol. Yet the truth is scams on the net are forbidding. You can read some of them here to be alerted : Mail Scams
