Attention: Sir.
I am Mr. Williams Surmavian. A Staff of Amalgamated Bank of South Africa (ABSA) this BANK is also a affiliated to Barclays Bank London, Branch address Plc.Level 26, 8 Canadian Square London.
I am writing following an opportunity in my office that will be of immense benefit to both of us.
In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of (US$16,000,000.00) Sixteen Million United State Dollars in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer Late Mr. Morris Thompson an American who unfortunately lost his life in the plane crash of Alaska Airlines Flight 261 which crashed on January- 31- 2000, including his wife and only daughter. You can read more about the crash on visiting this site; http://www.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska.airlines.list/ & http://www.nativefederation.org/history/people/mThompson.html
Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin or relatives 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 guidelines.
Unfortunately I learnt that his supposed next of kin being his only daughter died along with him in the plane crash leaving nobody with the knowledge of this fund behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I and two other officials in this department now decided to make business with you and release the money to you as the next of kin or beneficiary of the funds for safety keeping and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we donÂt want this money to go back into Government treasury as unclaimed bill.
The banking law and guidelines here stipulates that such money remained after five years the money will be transferred into banking treasury as unclaimed funds. We agreed that 45% of this money would be for you as foreign partner, while 45% will be for me, and 10% will be for any expenses incurred for the both party. Please note that this transaction needs an absolutely trust and confidential. Please reply to this email address: absabk@live.com
God help us.
Best Regards
Mr. Mr. Williams Surmavian
