ATTN:

My name is Offori Atta; I am the Regional manager of SSB Bank of Ghana Takoradi branch in the western Region of Ghana. I am married with two lovely kids. I am a man of peace and I don't want problems, I only hope you can assist me. I have packaged a financial transaction that will benefit you and I, as the Regional manager of SSB Bank it is my duty to send in a financial report to my head office in the Capital city Accra at the end of each Business Year.

On the course of the last year 2007 Business Report, I discovered that my branch in which I am the manager made Twenty-Two million five hundred and twenty thousand US Dollars ($22,520,000.00) which my head office are not aware of and will never be aware of. I have placed this fund on what we call escrow call account with no beneficiary.

As an officer of this Bank I cannot be directly connected to this money, so my aim of contacting you to assist me receive this money in your Bank account and get 30% of the total fund as commission though is negotiable.

There are practically no risk involved, it will be a Bank to Bank Transfer, all I need from you is to stand claim as the Original depositor of this funds who made the deposit with my branch so that my head office can order the transfer to your designated Bank account. If you accept to work with me I will appreciate it very much.

My private phone number and my email is the above. Call me if you think we can work together so that we can go over the details, Thank you in advance and may God bless.

Yours truly,

Offori Atta

Though it is interesting that these used to be about sympathy mixed with a fat reward for being a good samaratan (I need to flee the country with my untold millions, but can't just put it in a suitcase) and they now just seem to be about plain out and out greed.
