COMPANY).
My Dear Friend,
I feel quite safe and satisfy dealing with you in this mutual beneficial
transaction. Though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I
choose to reach you through it because it still remains the fastest, surest
and most secured medium of communication. However, this correspondence is
purely private, and it should be treated as such. I guarantee you that this
deal is hitch free from all what you may think of and I encourage you to
read it to the end so that you can understand it very well for the benefits
of both of us.I am Philios Zachariades (General Manager,ROYAL CROWN
INSURANCE COMPANY),in charge of Claims and Indemnity of ROYAL CROWN
INSURANCE COMPANY. I am contacting you based on Trust and confidentiality
that will be attached to this deal for the benefit of both of us.
The Management and the Legal / Treasury Department of this ROYAL CROWN
INSURANCE COMPANY in a recent meeting, recommended that the account of
MR.ROGER JACK ,who maintained a Life Assurance Policy,should be declared
Dormant and confisticated hence moving his unclaimed benefits funds to the
Treasury according to our Banking and Financial law.Recently, I came across
a huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person (MR.ROGER JACK).He is a
foreigner"a German National"and unfortunately He was among 109 people on
board and five who died on the ground when the plane crashed into the
Hotelissimo. when they were flying from western German city of
Moenchengladbach to New York to join a Caribbean cruise for a "vacation of a
lifetime". All occupants of the Aeroplane unfortunately lost their lives.
You can confirm through this website below:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm
This man was our client and has a Life Assurance Policy WORTH the sum of
Thirty Five Million United States Dollars (US$35,000,000.00). Right now, the
fund is lying unclaimed in our custody and there is NO next of kin mentioned
in his file and there is NO HOW we can reach any of his other relatives. All
efforts made to establish contacts with any member of his relation has
proved abortive and unsuccessful. His Life Assurance Policy will expire in
the next few months from the date of this letter. Just last week we received
an instruction from Ministry of Social Welfare to forward particulars of all
unclaimed benefits that will expire in the next few months.
Upon my personal finding on this matter, I kept this information secret to
myself until now that I am contacting you. In view of the fact that the
deceased customer is a foreigner (from a different country), it is
officially important for the involvement of a foreigner who will pose as a
next-of-kin. I will use my exalted position in this Insurance Company to
present you as his Next of Kin as you can be his relative, friend or Cousin
and the Money (US$35Million) will be safely transferred into your own bank
account in your country.
Please include your Telephone/Fax number/ Home Address when replying this
mail and I will give you more information as soon as you indicate your
willingness to assist in this valuable transaction. I will use my exalted
position here to get all internal documentations to back up the claims. The
whole Procedures will last only 7 working days to get the fund retrieved
successfully without trace even in future.
Please I need the following:
1. YOUR FULL NAME
2. PHONE AND FAX NUMBER
3. HOME ADDRESS/COMPANY'S NAME AND ADDRESS.
4. YOUR AGE AND OCCUPATION
The transaction will be done successfully and smoothly completed via email
and phone.
I Might call you for discussions. I PROMISE that you must be happy and shall
rejoice greatly soonest for cooperation with me in this transaction. After
successful conclusion of this transaction, we shall share the money in this
ratio:
1.) 55% for Me
2.) 40% for you,
while the remaining 5% should be use to pay any expenses or tax at the end
of the transaction as your Government may require.I await your good response
today. Thanks and remain bless. I require you to maintain the
confidentiality of this transaction because it is important due to the fact
that I am still in active services to the Company. Your earliest and urgent
response to this matter is very important.
I AM WAITING FOR YOUR REPLY TODAY.
Kind Regards,
Philios Zachariades
General Manager,ROYAL CROWN INSURANCE COMPANY.
