FROM THE DESK OF:
DR. DOWON BAE,
ANZ BANK,
18th Floor, Kyobo Building,
1 Chongro 1, Chongro-ku
Seoul,
Zip: KPO 1065,
South Korea.
Dear Friend,
I am DR. DOWON BAE, credit officer of ANZ BANK in Seoul,South Korea.
I have an urgent and very confidential business
proposition for you.
On June 7, 2000, a British Oil consultant/ contractor with the
Philippines Solid Minerals Corporation, Mr. Effat Mansour made a
numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at
US$21,000,000.00(Twenty One Million Dollars only) in my branch.
Upon maturity,I 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 contract employers,the South Korea Solid Minerals
Corporation that Mr. Effat Mansour died along with his wife
Mrs. Virginia Mansour from a plane crash-EgyptAir Flight 990
which crashed into the Atlantic ocean on October 31, 1999.
On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a
WILL,and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. The
names of the whole crew and passangers on board were publish on the
below internet link. Browse to see for yourself.

I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Effat
Mansour did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his
official documents,including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank.
This sum of US$21,000,000.00 is still sitting 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. According to Laws of
the South Korea , at the expiration of 6 (six)years, the money will
revert to the ownership of the South Korea Government if nobody applies
to claim the funds.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to
assist me in recieving this money as I have every machinery set to
enable you recieve this money via a Finance firm based overseas.
I need your urgent assistance so that the fruits of
this old man's labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt
government officials waiting for the expiration of 6years.
This is simple, I will require you to send me your complete
names,contact address and telephone and fax numbers so that I will be
able to apply for the necessary documents to enable you recieve the
money via the Finance firm overseas in your name.
After recieveing the money, we will share in the ratio of 75% for me
and 25% for you. Note that the project will be 100%risk free.
Considering my position as the credit officer of the bank, I
guarantees the successful execution of this transaction.I have the
facilities to obtain relevant documents to enable me lift the money
from the bank overseas.
If you are interested, please reply immediately. Upon your response, I
will then provide you with more details and relevant documents that
will help you understand the transaction. I will also let you have the
contact details of the Finance Firm and the country it is located in
Overseas.
Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for fast
communication.
You should observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall
require your assistance to invest my share in your country.
Awaiting your urgent reply.
Thanks and regards.
DR. DOWON BAE.
