Message-ID: <22129680.1061508860584.JavaMail.www@wwinf3007.me-wanadoo.net> From: allen@didon.freeserve.co.uk Subject: your friend allen Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2003 01:34:20 +0200 (CEST) My Good Friend, I am approaching you with about the oddest kind of offers. I know both of us do not know each other, but I had scoured the net to find your contact email address. Please, do not be offended if this mail does not appeal to you. Note that this mail is in no way Spam. I am writing to seek your earnest and sincere business relationship. My name is Dr Allen Didon. I am the Executive Director in charge of Domestic & International Operations (Safekeeping Department) Ancient Trust Bank, Lome, Togo. I am writing to seek your cooperation over a business deal in my department. I have been managing a secret account for the now-in-exile erstwhile President of Liberia, Charles Taylor who was ousted from office due to intense international pressure and now seeking asylum in a neighboring African country for peace to be restored to Liberia. Lying unclaimed is the amount of FIFTEEN MILLION USD ($15 Million USD) belonging to him. According to the last banking instructions which he left behind and which I am privy to due to my influential position in the bank, these funds are to be released to his foreign partner upon proper identification. As indicated in our banking/Safekeeping Guidelines and Code of Rules. These funds are only to be released to a notarized foreign associate of his; authorized legitimately, to access and operate this account on his behalf unless otherwise stated. But due to the fact that I have kept these funds for him and he can no longer have access to it, the funds will be returned bank to the coffers of greedy politicians. It is upon this discovery, that I and my trusted colleague in my department now decided to solicit for your assistance and cooperation for the immediate claim and transfer of the fund to your account as the expected foreign associate for our own use and benefit. This offer is very urgent because we don't want the fund to be moved into our Bank Treasury as an unclaimed fund. The Banking/Safekeeping law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after two years, the money should be transferred into the Bank treasury as unclaimed fund. Our request for your assistance to act as the foreign associate is occasioned by the fact that the original deposit instruction stipulates and specifies a foreigner and it is absolutely impossible for a citizen of LOME TOGO to claim the money as Foreign Associate (owner of the fund). This is the reason why we need a foreigner like you for assistance to claim the money and divert it to your account. We have agreed that 30%of this money shall be your reward while 60% is for my colleague and me, 10% shall be set aside for any expenses that might be incurred in the process of transferring this money to your account. After the transfer of all the money to your account we shall require you to make arrangement for me and my colleague to come over to your country for the immediate disbursement of the fund according to the commission indicated here. Upon your acceptance to assist us in this transaction we shall required you to apply first to our bank as foreign associate requesting for the immediate change of ownership to your name and transfer of the fund to your account. You should provide a well-secured account for the transfer of the money to your account. Upon my receipt of your reply (Letter of Acceptance) I will send to you by fax or email the text of the application which you shall copy and send back to our bank for claim of the fund as the supposed foreign associate. I will also give you all the relevant information you need to know about the unclaimed fund to enable you make claims of the money. Meanwhile, I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is absolutely Risk-free but strictly confidential between you and us only. This is very important to enable us effect a smooth transfer of the fund to your account. Be rest assured that I and my colleague are capable of effecting the transfer of the fund to your account within 10 working days after receiving all the enabling information and assistance from you. My colleague and I will use our executive powers in office to make this transaction a huge success. Nevertheless, we would need an assurance from you that you will not cheat us or sit on our share of the money if the money finally comes into your account. Please contact me immediately by email (allendidon@bobemail.com, allen_didon@hotmail.com) upon your acceptance to work with us to achieve this goal. I am looking forward to receive your earliest positive response. Yours Sincerely, Dr. Allen Didon
