FROM THE DESK OF
MR AHMED BENSON
BILL AND EXCHANGE
MANAGER,
BANK BICIAB

ATTENTION:
FIRST I MUST SOLICIT FOR YOUR CONFIDENCE IN THIS TRANSACTION,
THIS IS BY VIRTUE OF IT?S NATURE AS BEING UTTERLY CONFIDENTIAL. THOUGH I KNOW
THAT A TRANSACTION OF THIS MAGNITUDE, WILL MAKE ANYONE APPREHENSIVE AND
WORRIED BUT I AM ASSURING YOU THAT ALL WILL BE WELL AT THE END OF THE
DEAL.
I HAVE DECIDED TO CONTACT YOU DUE TO THE URGENCY OF THIS TRANSACTION,
LET ME START BY INTRODUCING MYSELF PROPERLY TO YOU. I AM MR AHMED BENSON, THE
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER BANK BICIAB ANNEX HERE IN OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA
FASO.I CAME TO KNOW YOU IN MY PRIVATE SEARCH THROUGH THE INTERNET FOR A
RELIABLE AND REPUTABLE PERSON TO HANDLE THIS CONFIDENTIAL TRANSACTION,WHICH
INVOLVES THE TRANSFER OF HUGE SUM OF MONEY TO A FOREIGN COUNTRY REQUIRING
MAXIMUM CONFIDENCE.
THE PROPOSITION: A FOREIGNER WHO MET HIS DEATH IN
?KENYA AIR BUS? (A310-30) FLIGHT Ko430 THAT CRASHED IN ABIDJAN,COTE D'IVOIRE
BANKED WITH US AT BANK BICIAB ANNEX HERE IN BURKINA FASO AND HAD A CLOSING
BALANCE AS AT THE END OF SEPTEMBER .
2001 WORTH $20 M TWENTY MILLION UNITED
STATES DOLLARS). THE BANK NOW EXPECTS A NEXT OF KIN AS BENEFICIARY AND
VALUABLE EFFORTS HAVE BEEN MADE BY BANK BICIAB TO GET IN TOUCH WITH ANY OF
ABDUL SUDANA'S FAMILY OR RELATIVES BUT TO NO SUCCESS. IT IS BECAUSE OF THE
PERCEIVED POSSIBILITY OF NOT BEING ABLETO LOCATE ANY OF THE LATE DEPPSITORS
NEXT-OF-KIN ( HE HAD NO WIFE OR CHILDREN THAT IS KNOWN TO US).
BASED UPON
THIS DISCOVERY,WE HAVE DECIDED TO MAKE THIS BUSINESS PROPOSAL TO YOU AND
RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU AS NEXT-OF-KIN OR RELATION TO THE DECEASED FOR SAFETY
AND SUBSEQUENT DISBURSEMENT SINCE NOBODY IS COMING FOR IT AND WE DON'T WANT
THIS MONEY TO GO INTO THE BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED FUNDS.THE BANKING LAWS
AND GUIDELINES HERE STIPULATES THAT,
IF SUCH MONEY REMAINED UNCLAIMED
AFTER SEVEN YEARS, THE MONEY WILL BE TRANSFERED INTO THE BANK'S TREASURY AS
UNCLAIMED FUNDS.THE REQUEST FOR A FOREIGNER AS NEXT-OF-KIN IS OCCASSIONED BY
THE FACT THAT,THE LATE DEPOSITOR WAS A FORIEGNER AND SO ANINDIGENE CANNOT
STAND AS THE NEXT-OF-KIN. IN ORDER TO AVERT THIS DEVELOPMENT,SOME OF MY
TRUSTED COLLEAGUES AND I NOW SEEK YOUR PERMISSION TO HAVE YOU STAND AS NEXT OF
KIN TO THE LATE DEPOSITOR SO THAT THE FUND, US $20 MILLION WILL BE RELEASED
AND PAID TO YOU AS THE BENEFICIARY NEXT-OF-KIN.
ALL DOCUMENTS AND PROVES
TO ENABLE YOU GET THIS FUND WILL BE CAREFULLY WORKED OUT ON YOUR ACCEPTANCE TO
PARTAKE IN THIS TRANSACTION. MY COLLEAGUES AND I IN MY DEPARTMENT HAVE SECURED
FROM PROBATE AN ORDER OF MANDAMUS TO LOCATE ANY OF THE DECLARED BENEFICIARY
(NEXT OF KIN) AND MORE SO I AM ASSURING YOU THAT THIS BUSINESS IS 100% RISK
FREE.
MEANWHILE YOUR PERCENTAGE SHARE SHALL BE 30% WITH RESPECT TO THE
PROVISION OF A FORIEGN ACCOUNT, 10% HAS BEEN SET ASIDE FOR ANY EXPENCES WE
MIGHT INCURE WHILE THE REMAINING 60% WILL BE FOR MY COLLEAGUES AND I. AS SOON
