Subject: Happy Easter / Let me hear from you
28th March 2005
From the desk of
Dr Dennis Moore,
Account Officer,
National Westminster Bank(UK),
London-UK.
Dear Friend
I am Dr Dennis Moore, an account officer the late Mr Alex Guest
a customer of National Westminster Bank. I know we
have not met before but I am contacting you with due sense
of humanity responsibility and the few awareness that you will
give it a mutual understanding I have urgent and very
confidential business proposition for you.
On June 6, 1997, a Foreign Construction firm
consultant/contractor in London -UK, Mr. Alex Guest
made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve
calendar months, valued at five Million, five hundred
thousand Dollars 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, that Mr. Alex Guest died from
an automobile accident.
On further investigation, I found out that he died
without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his
next of kin was fruitless. I therefore made further
investigation and discovered that Mr. Alex Guest
did not declare any kin or relations in all his
official documentations, including his Bank Deposit
paperwork in my Bank.
This sum has carefully been moved out of my bank to a
security and finance company in Europe.
No one will ever come forward to claim it. According
to banking policy,at the expiration of 5 (five) years,
the money will revert to the ownership of the bristish Government if
nobody applies to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as
the next of kin to stand in as the owner of the
consignment with the security company,
I deposited it in a security and finance company in
Europe
I am writing you because I as a public servant
(Account Officer)cannot operate a foreign
account or have an account that is more than $1m. I
want to present you as the owner of the consignment in
the
security company so you can be able to claim them with
the help of
an attorney. This is simple. I will like you to
provide immediately your full names and address so
that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents
which will put you in place as the owner of the
consignment.
The money will be moved out for us to share any
expenses that may incurre in the process of this
transaction will be deducted ones you have full
custody of the funds.Before we sharing the money.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this
transaction will be done by the Attorney and this will
guarantees the successful execution of this
transaction.
If you are interested, please reply immediately via my
email address Upon your response, I shall then provide
you with more details and relevant documents that will
help you understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be 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.
(Buying of properties like houses, hotels etc) Please
do send me your full contact details,so that we can
have a smooth communication. Awaiting your urgent
reply via my email.
Thanks and regards.
