FROM:MRS.SARRAH DIABATE

RUE Du COMMERCE,
IMMEBULE 2 PLATEAU
ABIDJAN-COTE D'IVOIRE
WEST /AFRICA.
MY DEAR,
PLEASE SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCES MY REACHING YOU
MIGHT CAUSE.AM PROPOSING A BENEFICIAL TRANSACTION IF
YOU CAN ASSIST.MY NAME IS MRS.SARRAH DIABATE,I WORK
WITH N.C.B ci BANK IN THE AUDITING DEPARTMENT.
THERE IS AN ACCOUNT OPENED IN MY BANK, N.C.B.ci BANK
IN 1996 AND SINCE NOBODY HAS OPERATED ON THIS ACCOUNT
AGAIN. AFTER GOING THROUGH SOME OLD FILES IN THE
RECORDS I DISCOVERED THAT IF I DO NOT REMIT THIS MONEY
OUT URGENTLY IT WILL BE FORFEITED FOR NOTHING.
THE OWNER OF THIS ACCOUNT LATE MR.DENNIS BROWN ,HE
DIED SINCE 1997 IN A PLANE CRASH WITH HIS ENTIRE
FAMILY,NO OTHER PERSON KNOWS ABOUT THIS ACCOUNT OR
ANYTHING CONCERNING IT, THE ACCOUNT HAS NO OTHER
BENEFICIARY AND MY INVESTIGATION PROVED TO ME AS WELL
THAT NONE OF HIS KIN DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS
ACCOUNT AND THE AMOUNT INVOLVED IS
U.S.$22.500,000.00(TWENTY TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS).
THIS HAPPENS EVERY WHERE,RATHER IT NEEDS TOTAL
CONFIDENTIALITY AND TRUST. I WANT TO TRANSFER THIS
MONEY INTO A SAFER FOREIGN ACOUNT ABROAD,I AM ONLY
CONTACTING YOU AS A FOREIGNER BECAUSE THIS MONEY CAN
NOT BE APPROVED TO ANY LOCAL BANK HERE BUT CAN ONLY BE
APPROVED TO ANY FOREIGN ACCOUNT BECAUSE THE MONEY IS
IN U.S DOLLARS AND THE FORMER OWNER OF THE ACCOUNT IS
MR.DENNIS BROWN AND HE WAS A FOREIGNER TOO.
I BELIEVE IN YOU AND YOU WILL NEVER LET ME DOWN IN
THIS BUSINESS, YOU ARE THE ONLY PERSON THAT I HAVE
CONTACTED FOR THIS BUSINESS.
YOUR PERCENTAGE IS NEGOTIABLE. I WILL USE MY POSITION
IN THE OFFICE TO PROVIDE ALL THE NECESSARY
INFORMATIONS FOR THE APPROVAL OF THIS FUND.
AFTER THE TRANSFER I WILL COME DOWN TO YOUR COUNTRY
WITH MY ONLY SON FOR RESETTLEMENT AND INVESTMENT.
EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM YOU.
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
MRS.SARRAH DIABATE
