FROM: MR. CHEUNG PUI
(cheungpui_852@yahoo.com.hk)Dear Friend,
Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr. Cheung Pui, director of
operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd,Hong kong. I have an 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 million 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
workof 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 million 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 laws of my country, at the expiration 4 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 anattorney 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 prefer you to reach me on the email address below;
Email:(cheungpui_852@yahoo.com.hk)
Finally, after that I shall provide you with more details of this
operation.
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
Warmest Regards,
Mr. Cheung Pui.
