I am laughing heartily.
One of my colleages here got it too and set us wondering!
It came up on my regular email not via the list ??
Cheers Brett

Hi Brett.

Wouldn't it be better, seeing you sent your response to the point-of-care
testing mail list, if you'd asked us to take our urine sample and depart?

BILL AND EXCHANGE DEPARTMENT
FOREIGN REMMITTANCE DEPT.
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK(ADB)
EMAIL:[log in to unmask]
REPUBLIC OF BENIN COTONOU.

DEAR FRIEND,

I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign
remmittance department of AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK.
Iam writing following the impressive information about
you through an internet buisiness proposal.
In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of
$6m, Us dollars ( six million US Dollars) in an
account that belongs to one
of our foriegn customer who died along with his
entirer family in
November,1997 in 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 can not release it unless somebody
applies for it as next of kin or relation to the
decease as indicated in our banking guidlines and
laws, but unfortunately we learnt that all his
supposed next of kin or relation died along side with
him at the plane clash leaving no body 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 or relation to the decease for
safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is
coming for it and we dont 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 treasure as
unclaimed fund. The request of a foreigner as next of
kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that
the customer was a foreigner and a beninois cannot
stand as next of kin to a foreigner.
We agree that30% of this money will be for you as a
foreign partner,

n respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10%
will be set aside for expenses incurred during the
business and 60% will be for me and my
collegues. There after I and my collegues will visit
your country for disbursment according to the percentages indicated.
Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this
fund to you as arrange,you must apply first to the
bank as relation or next or kin of the deceased
indicating your bank name, your bank account, 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 that this business is
hicth-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
receive this letter on my private line Trusting to
hear from you immediately.

Yours faithfully,

Dr.Ali Mustafa.
Bill and exchang,Manager.
