Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Robert Gitkel, on head of group risk, ASB Bank London, England. On
Monday, 31 July, 2000, one Andreas Schranner, a German National, An Astute
Business man of international repute whose endeavors spans various areas
of Business interest, (Real estate, Farming .etc) made a numbered time (Fixed)
Deposit, valued at £23,550,000.00 (Twenty three Million, Five Hundred and
Fifty Thousand Pounds) for twelve calendar months in my Bank Branch.
Upon Maturity, we 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 company that Mr. Andreas Schranner was aboard the AF4590 plane,
which crashed Monday, 31 July 2000 into the Hotelissimo.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm After further investigation,
it was discovered that he died without making a WILL and all attempts to
trace his next of kin proved fruitless.
On further investigation, it was discovered that Late Mr. Andreas Schranner
did not declare any next of kin or relatives in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paper work here in our Bank. The total sum, £23,550,000.00
is still in my bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal
sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it.
In accordance with the British banking laws and constitution, at the expiration
of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the British Government treasury
if nobody applies as the next of Kin to claim the funds. Consequently, I
shall present you as a foreign partner to stand in as the next of kin to
the late Mr. Andreas Schranner.
Upon acceptance of this proposal, I shall send to you the ASB Bank "Next
of Kin Payment Application Form" as well as detailed information on how
this deal would be carried out. We shall employ the services of a solicitor
for the drafting of the LAST WILL & TESTAMENT of Late Mr. Andreas Schranner
and to obtain all other relevant papers in your name for the necessary documentation
for payment approval in my bank headquarters in your favor.
The money will be shared in the ratio:
Sixty percent for me, thirty five percent for you and five percent for any
arising contingencies during the course of this transaction. I guarantee
that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect
you from any breach of the law, as I will use my position as the Bank's
head of group risk to secure approvals and guarantee the successful execution
of this transaction.
Please be informed that your utmost confidentiality is required. If this
interests you, I want to remind you of the confidentiality of this Transaction
at hand whatever your decision is. While I await your Response. Your detailed
reply should contain your telephone and fax numbers for easier communication.
Thanks.
Mr. Robert Gitkel
