A LIFE TIME OPPORTUNITY

From: "Mrs. Nkonuko" <nkonuko3@...>
Date: 2002-07-29 08:06:26 UTC
List: ruby-talk #45592
From: Mrs. Nkonuko,
Auditing and Accounting Unit.
Foreign Operations Department Banque Togolaise
Pour Le Commerce Et L棚ndustrie,
Lome-Togo. 
Tel:+228-9135387

ATTN: THE MANAGING DIRECTOR/CEO. 

Iam Mrs. Nkonuko, the director in charge of auditing and accounting section of Banque Togolaise
Pour Le Commerce Et L棚ndustrie Lome-Togo in West Africa with due respect and regard. I have
decided to contact you on a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the
end of the transaction. During our investigation and auditing in this bank, my department came
across a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person who died on November 1st 1999 in a
plane crash and the fund has been dormant in his account with this bank without any claim of the
fund in our custody either from his family or relation before our discovery to this development. 

Although personall, I keep this information secret within myself and partners to enable the whole
plans and idea be profitable and successful during the time of execution. The said amount was
US$7,200,000.00 (Seven Million Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars). As it may interest you
to know, I got your impressive information through my good friends who works with chamber of
commerce on foreign business relations herein Lome-Togo. It is him who recommended your person to
me to be viable and capable to champion a business of such magnitude without without any problem.
Meanwhile, all the whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as the bonafide next of kin to
the deceased, got the required approval and transfer this money to a foreign account has been put
in place and directives and needed information will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your
interest and willingness to assist us and also benefit your self to this great business
opportunity. 

In fact, I could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this country as a civil
servant (A Banker), we are not allowed to operate a foreign account and would eventually raise an
eye brow on my side during the time of transfer because I work in this bank. This is the actual
reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin
with affidavit of trust of oath to the bank and also present a foreign account where he will need
the money to be re-transfered into on his request as it may be after due verification and
clarification by the correspondent branch of the bank where the whole money will be remitted from
to your own designated bank account. 

I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free. On smooth conclusion of
this transaction, you will be entitled to 30% of the total sum as gratification, while 5% will be
set aside to take care of expenses that may arise during the time of transfer and also telephone
bills, while 65% will be for me and my partners. Please, you have been advised to keep 典op
Secretas we are still in service and intend to retire after we concluded this deal with you. I
will be monitoring the whole situation here in thisbank until you confirm the money in your
account, and ask us to come over to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund according to
percentages previously indicated and further assistance for the investment of our own share,
either in your country or any country you may suggest. All other information will be sent to you
when I hear from you. 

I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible stating your wish in this deal via my above
e-mail address.
I look forward to hearing from you. 

Yours Faithfully, 

Mrs. Nkonuko
