smithbarry@virgilio.it Subject: how are you Reply-To: barry4smith@katamail.com FROM:BARRY SMITH GLOBAL BANK OF BENIN, REPUBLIC DE BENIN WEST AFRICA. PLEASE REPLY TO barry4smith@katamail.com Dear Friend, My Name is Mr.BARRY SMITH. I work with the GLOBAL BANK OF BENIN ;currently I am in charge of bills and exchange at the foreign remittance department of my bank. In my department i discovered an abandoned funds (USD15M) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer (Mr & Mrs Green) Who died along with his wife in the December 25th, 2003 Air Crash in Benin Republic. PLEASE VIEW THE WEBSITE. www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/26/benin.crash/index.html Since i got information about his death, I have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidlings 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 now 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 we 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 Six 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 an Indigenecannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. Your percentage will be declare to you as soon as you indicate your interest.I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentage indicated.
