Greetings to you,

This letter must come to you as a big surprise, but I
believe it is only a day that people meet and become
great friends/ business partners. I am Osmond Attah,
currently Head of Corporate Affairs Department with a
reputable bank here in Ghana. I write you this
proposal in good faith, believing that I can trust you
with the information I am about to reveal to you.

I have an urgent and very confidential business
proposition for you. On June 5th, 2000, a German
business tycoon Mr. Andreas Schranner made a
(Fixed deposit) for 60 calendar months, valued at
US$12,500,000.00 (Twelve Million Five hundred Thousand
Dollars only) in my bank and I happen
to be his account officer before I was moved to my
present position recently. The maturity date for this
deposit contract was last 3rd of April 2005. Before
this date, I have tried my possible best to locate a
Next of Kin to late Mr. Schranner, but all efforts
proved abortive, because all his family, including his
Son In-Law and children died in the plane crash of
Concorde Air France Flight AF4590 which took place on
25th July 2000, some months after he did the deposit
in my bank. You can read more story about the plane
crash by visiting this website;
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/859479.stm

With the recent change of government in my country and
with their efforts to support the United Nations in
checkmating terrorism aid in Ghana. By end of April
this year, the Government will pass a new Financial
Control Law which will give the Government authority
to interrogate account owners of above $5 million
Dollars to explain the source of the
funds, making sure it is not for terrorism support. If
I do not move this money out of the country
immediately, by April the Government will
definitely confiscate the money, because my bank
cannot provide the account owner to explain the source
of the money since he is late.

I decided to utilize this life time opportunity,
instead of Government confiscating the, but I cannot
directly claim the money without the help of a
foreigner and that is why I am contacting you for an
assistance.
As the Account Officer to late Mr. Schranner, coupled
with my present position and status in the bank, I
have the power to influence the release of the funds
to any foreigner that comes up as the Next of Kin to
the account, with the correct information concerning
the account, which I shall give you. I am having the
secret Code for the account, which only the account
owner or his Next of Kin can know. I shall supply all
necessary information we need for the claim and there
is practically no risk involved, the transaction will
be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will
protect you from any breach of law, beside Ghana is
porous and anything goes.

If you accept to work with me, I want you to state how
you wish us to share the funds in percentage, so that
both parties will be satisfied. I shall explain to you
in details how we shall handle the transaction
once I receive your response. Thanking you in advance
and may God bless you. Please, treat with utmost
confidentiality. I shall send you copy of the deposit
slip issued to Mr. Schranner when the deposit was made
for your perusal. I wait your urgent response.

Regards,
Osmond Attah.
