Best regards!

My name is Mr Kwabena Donkor, The Branch Manager of a Financial Institution. I got your contact through a reliable source called database through Ghana chamber of commerce. I am a Ghanaian married with 3 kids. I am writing to solicit your assistance to transfer a fund $12.5 million which is the excess of what my branch in which I am the manager made as profit last year (i.e. 2018 financial year). I have already submitted an annual report for last year to my head office in Accra-Ghana as I have watched with keen interest as they will never know of this excess. I have since, placed this amount on an Escrow Coded account without a beneficiary (Anonymous) to avoid trace.

As an officer of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to this money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive this money into your bank account on my behalf. I agree that 40% of this money will be for you as a foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, and 60% would be for me. I do need to stress that there are practically no risk involved in this. It's going to be E-online transfer or bank-to-bank transfer. All I need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund so that the fund can be transferred to your account.

If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response to me. This is why and only reason why I contacted you, I am willing to go into partnership investment with you owing to your wealth of experience, So please if you are interested to assist on this venture kindly contact me back for a brief discussion on how to proceed.Please contact me with this email address: r.fkobina@gmail.com

Best regards,

Mr Kwabena Donkor
