Thanks

From the Editor: what are the odds that 2 different executives from Standard Bank Ghana, would have embezzled millions each and both would look to me for help with laundering it. I’m so touched they’d think of me…..

From: Mr. Kofi Mensah
Accra Ghana

Good Day My Friend.

My Name is Mr. Kofi Mensah

I am the Eastern regional branch manager of the  Standard Chartered  Bank West  Africa.I do not want problems but I just hope you can assist me.I write you this letter in good faith.

I am in control of the sum of three million,eight hundred and fifty thousand US dollars ($3,850,000.00) which was an excess of profit made by our regional eastern branch office in the last quarter of the year 2008,which I have carefully placed in an Escrow Call Deposit Account and did not declare this to my head office.

Can I really trust you to hold this money for me until I arrive your country and pick it up myself and you deduct 30% of the total money as your commission.If you accept my offer you can contact me immediately. If you do not accept can you forget I contacted you?

All I need is for you to get me a good current account in your bank where I can move this money.I will discreetly give you all the information concerning the account so that you can apply to the bank for the release of the money.There is practically no risk involved,it will be a bank to bank transfer.Take my word.

I hope you understand my situation get back to me am wait.

Thank you and have a nice day my friend.

Mr. Kofi Mensah.

My Dear Friend

My name is Mr. Godwin Kwesi . I work with the Standard Chartered Bank of Ghana as the Regional manager, Tema Branch, in the Accra Region of Ghana .

I have packaged a transaction that will be of mutual benefit to us. As the branch manager of Standard Chartered Bank of Ghana , it is my duty to send a financial report to my head office in the capital city, Accra , at the end of each financial year.

Following the release of the second quarter financial report, ending June 2008, I discovered that my branch made Six Million, Eight Hundred and Fifty Thousand United States Dollars ($6,850,000.00); from the transactions accruing to the account of the Inland Revenue Service (IRS). This was not detected by the renowned auditors from my head office.

I have moved the funds into what the bank call Escrow Call Account with no beneficiary. Meanwhile as you know I can not be directly connected to this money for obvious reasons. So my contacting you is to assist me receive the funds in your bank account in your country; which I know is possible if you liaise properly with me and get 30% of the total funds as your benefit.

The transfer would be made via swift and it will be a Bank-to-Bank wired transfer. All I need from you is to stand claim as the original depositor of this fund. I will compute your particulars as the person who made the deposit in my branch, so that my head office will immediately order the transfer to your designated bank Account.

Mail me if you think we can work together.

Thanks for your understanding and co-operation.

Best Regards,

Mr. Godwin Kwesi (Mr)

Branch manager (S C B).
