DAH SING BANK LIMITED
19 DES WES ROAD,
CENTRAL HONG KONG
HONG KONG
Dear Friend,
I am Mr. Jackie Fog, credit officer of Dah Sing Bank Limited, Hong Kong.
I am an Australian by nationality working with Dah Sing Bank Limited.
I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.
On September 8, 2001, an American Engineer/Consultant with the Chinese
Solid Minerals Corporation, Mr. Mathew Paxton made a (Fixed) Deposit for
twelve calendar months, valued at US$20,500,000.00 (Twenty Million Five
Hundred thousand United State 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 Hong Kong Solid Minerals Corporation that
Mr. Mathew Paxton died from a recurrent heart disease.
On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a will
and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Mathew Paxton
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$20,500,000.00 is still lingering 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 the Hong Kong Law, under china's foreign and defense affairs,
at the expiration of 5 (five) years, such funds will revert to the ownership
of the Chinese Government for financing military operations, such as purchasing
of arms and ammunitions for the military.
In order to avert this negative development, I will like to seek for your
permission as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Mr. Mathew Paxton
so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not be use for financing
weapons which will further enhance the courses of war in the world in general.
The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of
60% for me and 30% for you and 10% for Expenses Incurred in the course of
the transaction. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this project
will be done by my attorney and with my position as the credit officer guarantees
the successful execution of this project. If you are interested, please
reply immediately.
Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and that
will help you understand the transaction. Should you be interested please
send me your private phone and fax numbers for easy communication,
You should observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this project
would be most profitable for both parties because I shall require your assistance
to invest my share in your country and you can send me email at my alternative
email address {jackiefog@email.ro}.
Awaiting your immediate response.
Thanks and regards.
Mr. Jackie Fog
