Dear Friend, My name is Andrew Abbas, personal assistant to director international remittance department Bank of Africa Ghana. I amwriting in respect of a foreign customer of my bank (DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY,of America) who perished along with his wife and their son and daughterin Kenya Plane Crash, East Africa,on a festive visit from Los Angeles.with other passengers aboard as you can confirm it yourself through thisweb site: (http://edition.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/07/20/kenya.crash/index.html) Since the demise of DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY, I personally have watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim her funds of USD7.2m,(seven million two hundredthousand united states dollars) has been with our bank here for a verylong time on this note I decided to seek for whom his name shall be usedas the next of kin, as no one has come up to put claim as the next of kin to this funds and the banking ethics here does not allow such money to stay more than ten years, because after ten years the money will becalled back to the bank treasury as unclaimed bill. In view of this I got your contact through my country's foreign trade mission after I wasconvinced in my mind that your name/company could be used as the next ofkin to this claim. The request of the foreigner as a next of kin in thisbusiness is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and Ghanaian cannot stand as the next of kin to a foreigner. I agreed that 30% of this money will be for you as a foreign partner in respectof providing an account, while 10% will take of any expenses that mightbe incurred in the process of succeeding the transfer and the rest willbe for me.Thereafter I will visit your country for disbursement as I amalmost due for retirement. Upon the receipt of your willingenss toassits, I will send you by fax or e-mail a draft application of claimwhich you will send to the bank as the next of kin and the next step totake. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business ishitch free and that you should not entertain any fear as the wholerequired arrangement as been perfected for the transfer. Best Regards, Mr Andrew Abbas.

Unclaimed Money Belonged to African Politicians Lying in Off-shore Bank -- Keywords: Paul Benido

NO SPAM, PLEASE -- Partnership Offer in Unclaimed Money Belonged to African Politicians Lying in Off-shore Bank 

Same kind of mail I shared here before; same story, same wording, same initiative and same intention - to cheat internet users. Only the name of the sender is changed as the earlier mail was sent by Raziki Moudila and the today's mail is sent by Paul Benido.

Check out the story below:

Subject: Greetings

Greetings Greetings to you and your family , My name is Dr Pual Benido manager of bill and exchange in bank, i have i business of 6.5 Million Euro to be transfer to your account for investment in your country if you are ready to assist me get back to me i will give you full details on how the money will be transfer to you. You must assure me that everything will be handled confidentially because we are not going to suffer again in life. It has been 10 years now that most of the greedy Politicians used our bank to Launder money overseas through the help of their Political advisers. Most of the funds which they transferred out of the shores of Africa was gold and oil money that was supposed to have been used to develop the continent. Their Political advisers always inflated the amounts before transfer to foreign accounts so I also used the opportunity to divert part of the funds hence I am aware that there is no of facial trace of how much was transferred as all the accounts used for such transfers were being closed after transfer. I acted as the Account Officer to most of the politicians and when I discovered that they were using me to succeed in their greedy act, I also cleaned some of their banking records from the Bank files and no one cared to ask me because the money was too much for them to control. They laundered over (90 Million Euro) during the process .As I am sending this message to you, I was able to divert Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Euro (€6.5M) to an escrow account belonging to no one in the bank. The bank is anxious now to know who is the beneficiary to the funds because they have made a lot of profits with the funds. It is more than Eight years now and most of the politicians are no longer using our bank to transfer funds overseas. The (6.5 Million Euro) has been lying waste but I don't want to retire from the bank without transferring the funds to a foreign account to enable me share the proceeds with the receiver. The money will be shared 60% for me and 40% for you .There is no one coming to ask you about the funds because I secured everything. please quickly reply me Yours Faithfully, Dr Pual Benido
