Good day.

With all due respect to your person and much sincerity of purpose, I make this contact with you as I believe that you can be of great assistance to me. My name is Mr. Ibrahim Shorowa, from Republic of BURKINA FASO, West Africa. Presently I work with African development Bank as telex manager. I have been searching for your contact since you left our country some years ago.

I do not know whether this is your correct e-mail address or not because I only used your name initials to search for your contact. In case you are not the person I am supposed to contact, please see this as a confidential message and do not reveal it to another person, please if you are not the intended receiver; do let me know whether you can be of assistance regarding my proposal below.

I am about to retire from active banking service to start a new life but I am sceptical to reveal this particular secret to a stranger. You have to assure me that everything will be handled confidentially because if you cooperate with me and we make this business a success, we are not going to suffer again in life.

It has been 10 years now that most of the greedy African Politicians used our bank to launder money overseas through the help of their Political advisers. Most of the funds which they transferred out of the shores of Africa were gold and oil money that was supposed to have been used to develop the country. Their Political advisers always inflated the amounts before transferring to foreign accounts, so I used the opportunity to divert part of the funds hence I am aware that there is no official trace how much was transferred because all the accounts used for such transfers were being closed after the
transfer.

I acted as the Bank Officer to most of the politicians and when I discovered that they were using me to succeed in their greedy act; I cleaned some of their banking records from the Bank files and no one cared to ask me because the money was too much for them to control. They laundered over $5b Dollars (Five Billion Dollars) during the process. I was able to divert (Thirty Five Million United State Dollars) $35m to an escrow account belonging to no one in the bank. The bank is anxious now to know who the beneficiary to the funds is because they have made a lot of profits with the funds.

It is more than Eight years now and most of the politicians are no longer using our bank to transfer funds overseas. The ($35) Million Dollars has been laying waste here, and I don't want to retire from the bank without transferring the funds to a foreign account to enable me share the proceeds with the receiver. The money will be shared 60% for me and 40% for you.

There is no one coming to ask you about the funds because I secured everything. I only want you to assist me by providing a bank account where the funds can be transferred. You are not to face any difficulties or legal implications as I am going to handle the transfer personally. If you are capable of receiving the funds, do let me know immediately to enable me give you DETAILED information on what to do.

For me, I have not stolen the money from anyone because the other people that took the whole money did not face any problems. This is my chance also to grab my own but you must keep the details of the funds secret to avoid any leakages as no one in the bank knows about the funds.

Please get back to me if you are interested and capable to handle this project

I shall intimate you on what to do when I hear from your confirmation and acceptance. If you are capable of being my trusted associate, do declare your consent to me.

Waiting for your urgent response.
Yours Faithfully,

Mr. Ibrahim Shorowa
