Hello
Hello
Pardon me for not having the pleasure of knowing your mindset before making you this offer and it is utterly confidential and genuine by virtue of its nature.
I don't know what you will think of this secret deal
I write to solicit your assistance in a funds transfer deal involving US.5M.This fund has been stashed out of the excess profit made last 2years by my branch office of the International Commercial Bank of Ghana which I am the manager.
Will you help me launder 3 million illegal dollars?
I have already submitted an approved end-of-the-year report for the year 2007 to my head office here in Accra-Ghana and they will never know of this excess.
We won't be found out
I have since then, placed this amount on a Non-Investment Account without a beneficiary. Upon your response, I will configure your name on our database as holder of the Non-Investment Account. I will then guide you on how to apply to my head office for the Account Closure/bank-to-bank remittance of the funds to your designated bank account.
This is how we'll do it
If you concur with this proposal, I intend for you to retain 30% of the funds while 70% shall be for me.
But I want most of it back for myself
Kindly forward your response to me immediately
With Regards,
George Nduka
