This sounds just like the million other
scams from somewhere in Africa that have been coming via e-mail for years.
Wouldn't touch it with a 10-foot pole.
Anybody else get the following strange
letter? Sounds like a scam to me. CAtheirne
Goodday, My
name is Paul Adamu a staff of the CITIZEN INTERNATIONAL BANK PLC. As one of
the auditors of the bank, I discovered an account with the sum of
US$25,800,000.00. (TWENTYFIVE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND US. DOLLARS) that
has been abandoned and unserviced for more than ten years belonging to one of
our customer. Our banking law stipulates that if such account remaim
unserviced and the fund unclaimed for twelve years, the money will be
confiscated and go into the bank revenue as an unclaimed fund. It is upon
this discovering my colleaque and I who knows about it decided to make our
secret and personal inquiries about the account owner (depositor) and the next
of kin, but sadly, he died with his entire family in a plane crash in 1997. We
solicit that you stand as the next of kin so that the money will be transfered
to your account or any other account you may provide for us. We proposed that
the money be shared as follows, 30% for you, 65% for my colleaque and I, 5%
will be for any expences we may incure. please, could you urgently notify
me of your acceptance to assist in this trasaction, I shall inturn provide you
with all necessary information about the account and the modalities for a
formal application to secure the claim and the immediate transfer of the fund
to your account or any other account you may provide for us. I believe you
do understand the confidential nature of this transaction and hope you will be
honest and trustworthy in this transaction. Please forward your reply to the
