"Dear Partner,
I am Mr. Jacques Kabore, The head of the accounting department with the Bank of Africa (B.O.A) in Burkina Faso.
I know that you will receive this email with a sense of surprise but you don’t have to worry about anything.
I have decided to contact you for a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us once completed.
During our financial control and auditing, I discovered a huge amount of money and fifty kilograms of Gold bars, in a private safe of one of our late client, without claim.
This money belongs to a citizen of your country who died in 2003 in a car accident here in Burkina Faso without naming any beneficiary to this money and Gold deposited in our bank.
These funds are in his account with us without any one from his family or his partners coming for it till now.
I and the director general of our bank have kept this information secret to ourselves so that we can put in place a plan that can be profitable to you and us.
This fund amounts to the total sum of seven million five hundred thousand U.S. dollars ($ 7,500,000), with 50kgs of Gold bars in the safe.
I got your contact on the internet and your email profile impressed me, so I hope that you would be able to handle this transaction without any problems.
We have already made solid arrangements to allow you stand as the next of kin and the legal beneficiary, to claim these fund and the gold, as a close relative or business partner of the deceased and to obtain the required approval from our central bank in your favor, to transfer the money into any given bank account details of your choice out of our country, as the legitimate beneficiary.
I will pass on to you all the necessary information that you will need for this claim, as soon as you have expressed your interest in doing this business with us and to personally benefit from this great opportunity.
I work in this bank, that is the real reason why my bank director and I contacted you as an associate so that you can send a claim as a close relative or business partner of the deceased for this funds to be transferred to you without any traces coming back to us.
Upon the conclusion of this transaction, you will be entitled to 40% of the total amount as satisfaction and the remaining 60% will be for the director general and I.
I will monitor the whole situation here at the bank until you confirm that the money has been received in your account and you ask me to join you in your country for the sharing of the total amount according to the percentages indicated above.
I also want you to look for a serious buyer of the Gold and you should find out how much we can sell the Gold in your country.
Please inform me as soon as possible of your wish to do this business with us on the basis of trust.
For the success of this operation, you should keep it strictly confidential what I have just confided in you. Only this condition can allow us to achieve total success.
I am waiting for your urgent response.
My distinguished greetings.
Mr. JACQUES KABORE.
