FROM KEVIN COLEMAN

Dear Friend,

I know this message will come to you as a surprise since we do not know each other before, but for the purpose of introduction, I am MR.KEVIN COLEMAN, Operations manager, ecobank plc lagos Nigeria.  There is an account opened in this bank in 1991.  After going through some old files in the records, I discovered that nobody has operated in this account since 2000. And the banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after ten years (10 years), the money will be transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund.

From our records, the owner of this account is MR.ANDREAS SCHRANNER, {a foreigner, a miner at Kruger Gold. Co. and a geologist by profession}. After several notifications as a routine to the address of this distinguished customer of ours, his employees told our management that ANDREAS SCHRANNER, died with his entire family on Monday, 31 July, 2000, in a plane crash.

My investigation proved to me that no other person knows about this account or anything concerning it, the company does not know anything about this account as well, the account has no beneficiary. This account presently accommodates an amount involving $41.5 Million United State Dollars. With all due respect, I am contacting you because of my need to involve a reliable foreign beneficiary with a foreign account, who will coordinate this transaction. I would like you to assist me and claim these funds to your bank account.

I need your full co-operation to make this transaction successful, the bank will approve the payment to any foreign party who has correct information regarding this account.  Which I will transfer to you immediately if you are capable and willing to handle the amount in question with confidence and trust according to my instructions and advice for our mutual benefit.
