Subject: Proposal
Compliments of the day.
My mail may seem a little strange for a person you
do not really know, but I am writing you, with the vision that we may
finally be able to develop a mutual understanding between ourselves and move
into a partnership with each other, because of my plans of making future
investments in your country. I have a personal discussion that i want to
open up to you, this discussion requires a matured mind and a good sense of
judgment, so i would advice that you go through it carefully.
My name is Mr. Michael Chaytor, I work with a BANK in United Kingdom. In July
1999, I assisted a client ( name witheld for now), to make a (Fixed)
Deposit of ( Twenty nine million seven hundred British pounds ) presently
valued at ($55,531,663 US Dollars ) for six calander months in my Bank
Branch. Upon Maturity of the first six months, my bank sent a routine
notification to his forwarding address, to confirm if he wanted to continue
rolling it over another duration, but we got no response from him.
After another six months, we sent another reminder to know if he wanted our
Bank to continue rolling over the interest, but we still did not get any
response from him. I had to make personal efforts to reach him, since i
was his portfolio manager that personally guided him through when he was
opening the deposit account. Suprisingly I discovered that the client was
aboard the German concorde Air Flight which crashed, killing all passengers
on board and unfortunately he and all the entire members of his family died
in the crash, husband, wife, children and his wife's parents inclusive.
After thorough investigations, all attempts to trace his next of kin proved
fruitless, as it was discovered that the client(depositor) did not declare
any next of kin or relations in all his official documents, including his
Bank Deposit paper works here at our Bank. I have been working on this for
quite a long time now, and from my own private investigations, i found out
that this client was also having some financial problems in his country with
some companies that were accusing him of looting huge amount of funds from
them.
I got to find out that it was not known to his family or any other person
that he had deposited money here in United Kingdom. The money has been in
my bank domant and my bank has stopped rolling over interest, until the
beneficiary comes to revive the account. Nobody has come to make claims to
these funds since then, because nobody knows about this money and I believe
No one will ever come forward to make claims, since the entire family was
eventually wiped out.
In accordance with the Federal banking Laws and constitution here, at the
expiration of (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the
Government if nobody applies as the next of Kin to claim the funds or the
owners of the bank may wipe it off their system for their own benefits,
since it would be termed as floating money (free money). I have been working
on this, because i see this as a 'Once in a life time opprtunity'. I need
someone that i can trust, someone that i will guide to make claims to this
funds. As` his portfolio manager, I shall present you as a foreign partner
to stand in as the next of kin to this client so that you and I can benefit
from this 'FREE MONEY'.
If you are ready to work with me, I will arrange for you to sign the BANK "
Application Form" as well as detailed information on how this deal would be
carried out. I give you my word and i guarantee that this transaction will
be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you and i from
any breach of the law as I will use my position in the Bank to secure
approvals and guarantee the successful execution of this transaction. This
is my field and i have done a perfect home-work to ensure that we have a
perfect deal.
I will be waiting to hear from you, but Please NOTE that it is very
important we keep all facts and details of this transaction to ourselves
alone, considering my position in the bank and what is involved. I am a
straight forward person and i always go straight to the point, my position
and full identity would be given to you when i finaly come to see that we
both can build up some good level of trust amongst ourselves, as this my
proposal would need a good level of understanding. If you are interested,
you would have to reply me on time to let me know your opinion as time is of
the essense.
Best regards,
Mr. Chaytor
