    just recieved this in my email now lol.............


    Dear... i need an urgent response from you,

    I am the head of Accounts and Audit Department of Bank of Africa,
    Ouagadougou .I decided to contact you after a careful thought that you may
    be capable of handling this business transaction which i explained below;

    In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $10.5m US dollars (Ten
    million, five hundred thousand US dollars). In an account that belongs to
    one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family in 1998 in
    a plane crash. 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 somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
    deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately we learnt
    that his supposed next of kin(his son and wife) died alongside with him at
    the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim .It is therefore upon
    this discovery that I and other officials in my department now decided to
    make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next
    of kin(We want to present you as his business associate )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 guideline here stipulates that if such money remained
    Unclaimed after seven years, the money will be transferred into the Bank
    treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this
    business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a
    Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner .We agree that 30% of
    this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision
    of a foreign account, 10 % will be set aside for expenses incurred during
    the business and 60% would be for me and my colleagues. There after I and my
    colleagues will visit your country for disbursement according to the
    percentages indicated. Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this
    fund to your account as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as next
    of kin of the deceased customer. 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 that 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.

    I would want you to respond to my email immediately you read it for more
    details.

    Hoping to hear from you immediately.
    Yours faithfully,

    Mr.Paul Soba.

    Accounts & Audit Department,
    Bank of Africa

    Nb.also give me your telephone and fax numbers for easy communication with
    you.
