This email was not sent by the bank's Director of Auditing - it was sent by a scammer. There is no unclaimed money to share. It is a scam.

Dear Friend,

I am Mr. Oumarou KOLA,The Directeur of Auditing Internal Unit, Société Générale de Banques au Burkina. I discovered a dormant fund during our end of last year 2009 annulation auditing evaluations. So am contacting you through this medium for an urgent beneficial transaction. I have the opportunity of transferring Four Million Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars from an account that belongs to one of our customer's from the United States of America who died long ago in heart related disease. Nobody has come for the funds as the deceased was residing permanently here in my country Burkina Faso. The bank will be transferring the funds into the Bank treasury as an unclaimed fund by (April) this year as stipulated by the banking law over such account that lingers dormant for more than five years. I want to hearing from you so that I can file an application of claim in your name with the in formations of the deceased and the account as the benefited beneficiary of the account. Please this is supposed to take us only few bank working days to conclude on the transf er for I have put everything in place before contacting you and there is no risk.

Thanks yours sincerely,
Mr. Oumarou KOLA.

The scammer's follow-up email:

Dear Friend,

I thank you for your response and I hope this message meets you in good health. Firstly, I assured you 100% that this adventure is very legal and there is no risk in it even in the future. Please i want you to understand that i did not mean you are in the list as beneficiary of the dormant account that belongs to our client Mr. Ferguson Rowland, but i mean you to stand as the beneficiary since nobody has come until now for the claim as the beneficiary. For more assurance, i will like you to come down here in my Country Ouagadougou Burkina Faso and see things your self. Like i told you in my first email, the fund belongs to a late foreign customer from united state of America and there is no way i can acquire the funds in my name or somebody here in Ouagadougou Burkina Faso. This is why i have contacted you for the bank release of the fund to you as the beneficiary for us to share.

I am going to back you up with any information that this bank might need from you for the prove of the claim. I have agreed to share the funds with you 50 by 50. I want you to keep this development away from anybody and never you allow this bank to notice my involvement so that they will not notice that somebody here is giving you clews about the dormant account.
I have already worked out the modalities of achieving the successful transaction till you confirm the funds in your custody; this is the reason why i am guaranteeing a 100% risk free involvement. I want you to scan and send to me your INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT or ID CARD before we fudge ahead. Meanwhile, i will scan and send to you my staff ID CARD in my next email.

Again, I advice you to maintain absolute secrecy till this funds reaches your destination for security reasons.
As you can see my full name is Mr. Oumarou KOLA, I am 49years old married with three Children. I appreciate your response very much and i have entrusted you my dear Brother, but for me, i don’t want to experience any atom of disappointment as the fund reaches your destination. Here is my private telephone number +226 7864 5689, I expecting your urgent response as soon as you receive my email.

Best Regards,
Mr. Oumarou KOLA.
