MR. CHEUNG PUI
Hang Seng Bank Ltd
Sai Wan Ho Branch
Hong Kong.
chgpui76@indiatimes.com
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Cheung Pui director of operations
of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd,Sai Wan Ho Branch.I have a obscured business suggestion
for you. Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Major Fadi Basem who was
with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit
for 18 calendar months, with a value of Twenty Four millions Five Hundred
Thousand United State Dollars only in my branch. Upon maturity several notice
was sent to him, even during the war early last year. Again after the war
another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later
find out that the Major and his family had been killed during the war in
bomb blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Major Fadi Basem
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 millions 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 to the laws of my
country at the expiration 3 years 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 Major Fadi Basem 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 contacted an attorney that will prepare the
necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Major Fadi
Basem , all that is required from you at this stage is for you to provide
me with your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can commence his
job. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill
in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter
of probate in your favor for the move of the funds to an account that will
be provided by you. There is no risk involved at all in the matter as we
are going 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.Once the funds have been transferred to your
nominated bank account we shall share in the ratio of 70% for me, 30% for
you . Should you be interested please send me your full names and current
residential address and I will prefers you to reach me on the email address
below (chgpui76@indiatimes.com) and finally after that i shall provide you
with more details of this operation.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Respectfully Submitted
Cheung Pui
