Dear Partner,

I am Mr Joseph Poon (Managing Director and Deputy Chief
Executive Hang Seng Bank Hong Kong), before the U.S and Iraqi
war our client Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan who was with the
Iraqi forces and also businessman made a numbered fixed
deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of Twenty Four
million Five Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only in my
branch.Upon maturity several noticiendes was sent to him, even
during the war which began in 2003.

Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response
came from him. We later find out that Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan along with
his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb blast
that hit His Resident. After further investigation it was also discovered
that Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan did not declare any next of kin in his
official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit. And he also
confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me
knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Twenty Four million Five Hundred
Thousand United State Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will
ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that according to
the laws of my country at the expiration 7 years and six month the funds
will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody
applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is
that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Gen.
Aadel Akgaal Bastaan so that you will be able to receive his funds.

WHAT IS TO BE DONE:

I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall
come out successful. I have an attorney that will prepare the necessary
document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen. Aadel Akgaal
Bastaan, all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide
me with your personal phone number/fax so that the attorney can commence
his job.

After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also file in
for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of
probate in your favour for the move of the funds to an account that will
be provided by you. There is no risk involved at all in this matter, as we
are going to adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all
the necessary documents.

Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning
this issue, also please send me your personal private cell phone/fax
number. And finally after that I shall provide you with more details of
this operation. I shall be waiting for your response and assurance along
with your recent residential address.

Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated and please be
advice that all further corresponding e-mail be via this new e-mail
address: josephpoon20@ymail.com

Kind Regards,

Joseph Poon.
