Dear Friend,

With due respect, I know this mail will come to you as a surprise. I am Ibraham Tanja, the principle of BT AT LAW FIRM. I hope you will not expose or betray the trust and confident that I am about to repose on you for the mutual benefit of our both families.

I need your urgent assistance in transferring the sum of $14.2 million immediately to your account. The money has been dormant for years in late Mr. Jonas Savimbi account here in my country without any body coming for it. He handed to me some lodgement documents as statement of account include fund deposited certificate with me which he had deposited some money encased in the bank.

I want to release the money to you as the nearest person to my late client who was killed by unknown assailants.

You may read more about my father on the link:

The said deceased was one of the best clients in my Firm so therefore, I don’t want the money to go into Bank Treasury as an abandoned fund according to the bank protocols guiding inheritance fund here because I’m the only person in position now to appointing who to claim the money.

Upon receipt of your reply, I will send you full details on how the Business will be executed and also note that you will have 40% of the above mentioned sum if you agree to transact the business with me.
