To: undisclosed-recipients

Hello

My name is Myles Gallagher,i am pleased to get across to you for a very confidential and profitable business proposal. I got your contact while searching for a reliable person who will assist me to execute this once in a life time business opportunity in my department.That’s why I deemed it fit to contact you and ask for your assistance in this profitable matter, requiring trust and confidentiality.

I am a senior partner in the Technical Advisory Board of Allied Irish Bank Group (Senior Security Specialist). We are conducting a standard process investigation on behalf of “AIB Group”, the International Banking Conglomerate.

I render internal and external auditing services for Allied Irish Bank. On my routine audit check few months back, I discovered an investment accounts that had been dormant for at least 5 years.

Now banking regulation/legislation here demand that I do notify the fiscal authorities after a statutory time span of 8 years when dormant accounts of this type are called in by the Jersey monetary regulatory bodies.

The above set of facts underscores my reason for writing and proposing to you. My investigation of the said account reveals that the investor died in testate and nominated no successor in title over the investments made with the, bank who unfortunately died with his wife, only daughter and her husband in a plane crash of Flight AF4590 from Paris to New York U.S.A on Tuesday 25 July, 2000. I can confirm with certainty that no next of kin to his estate has been found or has come forward all these years. You can check the link below for more details about the disaster;

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/851209.stm

I am of the settled conviction that using my insider leverage, I, working with you can secure the funds in the account for us instead of allowing it pass as unclaimed funds into the coffers of the Government of Channel Islands. This exactly is why I crave your participation and co-operation.

I have in my custody all relevant documents (legal and Banking) that will facilitate your claims as the beneficiary of the funds. If this offer is okay by you, we can put minds together and workout the modalities and our mutual benefits. I shall however leave out the finer details of this transaction till I receive an affirmation of your desire to participate. Be assured that I am in control of the situation and as such, there would be no risk whatsoever if you elect to come on board. Needless to say, UTMOST CONFIDENTIALITY is of vital importance if we are to successfully reap the immense benefits of this transaction.

Please send your response and contact details E.g. Full names, Direct telephone, Fax numbers, Email and if available scanned copy of your international passport or drivers license so I can be sure of your identity before we commence business send to my private and more confidential email below, which I have created for this purpose only.

Regards,

Mr Myles Gallagher

Apart from the fact that this message is written in capital letters, the spelling and grammer are abysmal. Someone who has earned the title of “Doctor” before their name, would normally be fluent in the english language, even if they went to an African university.

So it’s easy to see that this was written by some semi illiterate person trying to make a quick profit on the internet with a fraudulent offer.

Here’s a popular story which is used often used by the African crooks. Andreas Schranner,  who died in the Concorde crash in Paris, is the person who allegedly left some money in an account in, yes you guessed it, in OUAGADOUGOU!

Needless to say the story about abandoned money is not true.

In my department we discovered an abandoned sumof US$20m dollars (TWENTY MILLION US DOLLARS) in an account that belongsto one of our foreign customer (MR.

Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidings and laws but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relationto the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don’t want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill.

The banking law and guidline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after Six years, the money will be transfered into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.

I agree that 30% of this money will be for you as a respect to the provision of a foriegn account , 10% will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 60% would be for me Thereafter, I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentage indicated Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this funds you must apply first to the bank as relation or next of kin of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective

Here’s another scam message from OUAGADOUGOU. This time the crooks are quoting Andreas Schranner as the owner of the abandoned account.

If you have been following Crime Online at all, you will know that Andreas Schranner is often used in this type of message. It’s easy to confirm that there ever was somebody with that name. There is even a link to the BBC report on the Plane crash.

Remember the Concorde that went down in Paris? That’s where Andreas Schranner died.

Since then, nobody has done anything as regards the claiming of this money, as he has no family member that has any knowledge as to the existence of either the account or the funds; I have confidently agreed to find a reliable foreign partner to deal with. My proposition to you, is to seek your consent to present you as the Next of kin and beneficiary of this late client, So that the proceeds of this account valued a huge sum shall be paid to you, and then we can share the amount on a mutually agreed percentage of 30% for you, While 60% for me and others involved, 10% shall be used for miscellaneous expenses while the remainder shall be given to a reputable charity home because the money is owned by a deceased person.

This transaction is totally free of risk and troubles as the fund is legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act, funds will be released to you after necessary processes have been followed. Let me hear from you as soon as you get this message, so we can proceed.

MR RAHIM ABIBU

CNN kindly published the names of the passengers who died in the plane crash the crooks are referring to, which made the research for this e-mail easy.

AGCO Corp, an agricultural equipment manufacturer based in Duluth, Georgia, said its president and chief executive John Shumejda and senior vice president for sales and marketing Ed Swingle had died in the crash, Reuters reported.

With due respect and regards I have decided to contact you on a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end of the transaction, During our investigation and auditing in the bank, my department came across a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person, a foriegner who died in a plane crash and the fund has been dormant
in his account with the bank without any claim of the fund in our custody either from his family or relation before my discovery to this development,Although personally, I kept this information secrete within myself and  to enable the whole plans and idea be profitable and successful during the time of execution.

The amount involved is $9M US Dollars ( NINE MILLION US DOLLARS).Meanwhile, all the whole arrangement and directives needed to put claim over this fund as the next of kin to the deceased, Upon your acceptance all the information will be forward to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist me and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity,In fact, I could have done this
deal alone but because of my position in this country as a civil servant,we are not allowed to operate a foriegn account and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of transfer because I work in this bank, this is the actual reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin with affidavit of trust of Oath
to the bank and also present a foriegn account where you will need the said fund to be transferred into, after due verification and clarification to designated bank account.

We agree that 30 % of this money will be for you as foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10 % will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 60 % would be for  me. There after I  will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relations or next of kin
of the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your
private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where in the money will be remitted .

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 hitch free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer .
You should contact me immediately if you are interested and ready to transact with me. Then I will request for some vital information  from you first before we could proceed. In your reply do remember to include your full name and your direct Telephone/Fax number for easy communications between us.

Please you have been adviced to keep top secret as I am still in service and intend to retire from service after I conclude this deal with you, I will be monitoring the whole situation here in the bank until you confirm the money in your account and ask me to come down there for subsequent shearing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further
investment,either in your country or any other country you may advice me to invest in.

All other necessary information will be sent to you when I hear from you, I suggest you get back to me as soon as possible, stating your wish in this deal.

Waiting for your soonest response, please reply at
