From the Desk of:
Head of Treasury
East of Africa

Dear Friend,

With respect and humility, I decided to send this proposal to you, this however is not mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honor against your will. I Head the treasury of a Government Bank for Country in East Africa (Name Withheld for Security Reasons) There is a dormant account and a safe deposit registered with our bank.

The owner of the account died 5 years ago and he bears the same surname with you. Till date no relatives has come forward to make claims on the account and safe deposits.

The Deposited fund will be confiscated under BANKING CODE OF ETHICS since it has remained dormant for period of (5) years without any claims.

In this regard, I earnestly need your full cooperation in transferring this dormant fund out of our bank to avoid this fund classified as abandoned fund and transferred into Kenya government account for official use. My worry is that the funds will be used on ghost project and the gains will be reaped by corrupt government officials in the finance ministry.

Corporate with me and I will split the transfer into two 2 stages for easy and smooth transfer to you as the next of kin. I am contacting you because the deceased shares the same surname as you. This was after a painstaking search through Internet emails on possible surname match.

First, I will transfer 20% of the deposited funds to any valid foreign account you will nominate, upon a successful transfer without any disappointment from your side, I will then fly to meet you in your home destination for sharing, and thereafter we jointly transfer the remaining balance of 80% balance to your account. In all transaction you will retain 25% for taking the pains to participate. If you are willing to cooperate in this project, please forward me your phone, fax Full name and address, I will give you details immediately as soon as I hear from you.

Please note that you are required to keep very confidential.

Yours truly,
Mr. Leonard N.M

I CONTACTED THE SENDER AND THEY SENT ME AN ANSWER, WHICH YOU CAN READ BELOW.

THEY WRONGLY SUPPOSE THAT I WISH TO WORK WITH THEM.

THIS MESSAGE HAS ALL THE ELEMENTS OF A NIGERIAN SCAM EMAIL. IF YOU WOULD ENGAGE WITH THEM MOST PROPABLY YOU WILL BE ASKED TO PAY UP FRONT FEES BUT YOU WILL NEVER RECEIVE THE FUNDS THEY PROMISE. I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU DO NOT ENGAGE IN BUSINESS WITH THEM.

HERE FOLLOWS THE ANSWER THEY SENT ME:

Dear Bart,

Greetings from Uganda, I thank you very much for your response to my email
and also for your desire to work with me to get this fund and other
valuables released to you as the next of kin beneficiary. The amount left in
fixed deposit is $9million dollars.

I am a stake holder and also the Regional director foreign Operations with
the Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) the money and valuables left by behind a
deceased was deposited with KCB branch office in Neighboring Country Uganda.
I oversee the branch in Kenya and Uganda. Please keep this revelation secret
only to your self. The deceased was from Venezuela and a foreign investor
in Uganda and 4 years and until now the bank has not been able to trace any
family relations and by the end of next month his money will confiscated,
lavished by corrupt government official. This is the reason why I contacted
you because I do not want this to happen. I will make you the next of kin
since you bear the same surname. We will both use the money to assist the
needy and help ourselves as well.

First and foremost trust is the foremost issue on my mind now and I hope I
can trust with all my heart. I need strong assurances from you.

If you are sure that I can trust you then send me a copy of your
international passport or driver’s license. If you send it then I will have
a peace of mind and then I will sign approvals for the inherited fund to be
transferred to you account immediately from our London based Fund Managers.

Regards
Dr. Leonard Moss
