AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING MANEGER ,
BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A)
OUAGADOUGOU-BURKINA FASO.

Dear Friend,

I am the manager of auditing and accounting at the foreign remittance
department of BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A) here in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.
In
my department we discovered an abandoned sum of US$12m dollars (Twelve
Million US dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our for eign
customer (MR. ANDREAS SCHRANNER from Munich, Germany) who died along
with
his entire family in Jully 2000 in a plane crash.For more informations
about
the crash you

can visit this site: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
Since we got information about his death, we 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 five 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 a
Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.

I agree that 30% of this money will be for you as a respect to the
provision
of a foriegn account ,10% will be set aside for expenses incurred
during the
business and 60% would be for me Thereafter, I will visit your country
for
disbursement according to the percentage indicated Therefore, to enable
the
immediate transfer of this fund to you arranged,you must apply first
to the
bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased with a text of
application
that i will send to you,so i will like you to send to me your private
telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and
location
where in the money will be remitted.

Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text
of
the application.I will not fail to bring to your notice this
transaction is
hitch-free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all
required arrangements have been made for the transfer. You should
contact
me immediately as soon as you received this letter.

Trusting to hear from you immediately.Yours Faithfully,
1. Full Name
2. Your Telephone Number and Fax Number
3. Your Contact Address.

Thank You.

That scam is dated 2000. The email says that after 5 years from that time the money goes to the countries treasury. The year is now 2006. OWNED.

No, no, this is about taking time from that guy who write it. If he realize it that you are not serious - he will drop it. But if you pretend and ask him for the exact Documents, he will drop hours of work in to convince you... Man you are simply not evil enough... You need to hurt him, and timeis the only thing you can take him (besides handing him over to your "Company-Adress" in Langly) Take your Time.

I really don't feel sorry for people who are duped out of their money by these con artists. The only ones who fall for such quackery are people who are themselves trying to get something for nothing.

You know, filthy lucre or some such thing...

A great site about people who "scambait" these scammers, and get funny pictures.

There was another site about people who baited the scammers into sending them money, but I can't find it...
