Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Mr.Peter Atsedewoin, Bank Manager of Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. 
This is an urgent and very confidential business proposition.
On June 6, 2001,a Foreign Oil consultant/contractor with the South 
African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, Mr. Michael Foster made a 
numbered time(Fixed) Deposit for
twelve calendar months, valued at US$26,500,000.00,(Twenty-six Million, 
five hundred thousand Dollars) in my branch.
Upon maturity,I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address 
but got no reply. After a month,we sent a reminder and finally we 
discovered from his contract employers, the National Petroleum Corporation 
that Mr. Michael Foster died from an automobile accident.On further 
investigation,I found out that he died without making a WILL,and all 
attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Michael 
Foster did not declare any kin or relations in all his official 
documents,including his Bank Deposit paper work in my Bank here in 
Ethiopia.This sum of US$26,500,000.00 has carefully been fixed in my bank for 
safekeeping.
No one will ever come forward to claim it.According to Ethiopia Law, at 
the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the 
ownership of the Government if nobody applies to claim the fund.Consequently, 
my proposal is that I will like you as a Foreigner to stand in as the 
owner of the money which was fixed deposited in my bank.I am writing you 
because I as a public servant,i cannot operate a foreign account.
I want to present you as the owner of the funds so you can be able to 
claim them with the help of my attorney. This is simple.I will like you 
to provide immediately your full names and address so that the Attorney 
will prepare the necessary documents which will put you in place as the 
beneficiary of the funds.
The money will be moved out for us to share in the ratio of 80% for me 
and 20% for you. The paperwork for this transaction will be done by the 
Attorney.
If you are interested, please reply immediately via my email address 
and Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and 
relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this 
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall 
require your assistance to invest my share in real estate within your 
country.
Due to the nature of confidentiality in this Transaction our 
communicationcan only should be via email and fax mostly.
Awaiting your urgent reply to my address above.
Thanks and my regards.
Peter Atsedewoin.
