ATTN: Friend,

With due respect and humanity, I write to you this proposal.I am the manager of bill and exchange foreign remittance department of Standard Chartered Bank - London . I am writing following the impressive information garderd about you in the internate site of your country. I believed it will of an interest to you, In my department, we discovered an abandoned sum of ($7.500,000.00) (Seven million Five Hundred Thousand us dollars only) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer Late Mr.Ian Hawks worth, who died along with his entire family in Japan Earthquake Tsunami 11 Mar 2011 The morning after Japan was struck by the most powerful earthquake to hit the island nation in recorded history and the tsunami it unleashed, at least 350 people are dead and hundreds missing after a tsunami caused by a huge 8.9-magnitude quake devastated north-east of Japan.

Since we got information about his death , we have been expecting his next of kin to come forward and claim his money because we cannot release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation or Cousin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines and policies but unfortunately we learned that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the earthquake leaving nobody behind for the claims.

It is there fore 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 deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming forth and we don't want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill, if no one comes for it. According to our Banking policies and guideline here which stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after four years, the money will automatically be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund.

The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occasioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a British cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. In this regard we requested that you will stand as the Cousin of the deceased to receive the fund in his account. We agree that 30% of the total money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10% will be for reimbursement of any expenses incurred during the curse of the transaction and 60% would be for me and my colleagues.

There after you received total money, I and my colleagues will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. Therefore to enable the immediate trnansfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relation or Cousin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your private telephone and fax number for easier and effective communication and location where the money will be remitted to you.

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 transaction is 100% hitch free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer. Please for the confidentiality of this transaction and my self don't le the bank to know that I know anything at all about this transaction until the funds reflects in your designated bank account as will be submitted.e-mail address at
