Subject: ATTENTION:
MR. TANG.K.LETIAN
International Commercial Bank
China,100 Chi Lin Rd.
Taipei 104 Taipei Taiwan
ATTENTION:
I am Mr.Tang Karl Letian,Presently Bank Manager of
International commercial Bank China,100 Chi Lin
Rd.,Taipei 104 Taipei Taiwan, R.O.C. I would
respectfully request that you keep the contents of
this mail confidential and respect the integrity of
the information you come by as a result of this mail.
I contact you independently of our investigation and
no one is informed of this communication.
I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I
believe would be of interest to you. In 1999, the
subject matter Mrs Tobey Seidman , informed us that
she had a financial portfolio of Seven Million Four
Hundred and fifty thousand Dollars
($7,450,000.00),which she wished to have us turn over
(invest) on her behalf. I was the officer assigned to
her case; I made numerous suggestions in line with my
duties as the de-facto manager of the newly formed
branch ,especially given the volume of funds she
wished to put into our Bank.
We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments
being placed.I encouraged her to consider various
growth funds with prime ratings.The favored route in
my advice to customers is to start by assessing data
on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000
managers of alternative
investments.
Based on my advice, we spun the money around various
opportunities and made attractive margins for our
first months of operation, the accrued profit and
interest stood at this point at 2 million United
States Dollars, this margin was not the full potential
of the fund but she desired low risk guaranteed
returns on investments. Upon maturity, I sent a
routine Notification to her forwarding address but got
no reply. After a month, We sent a reminder and
finally we discovered from her
contract employers, Tobey Seidman died From an air
crash on Egypt Air flight 990 from New York two
months earlier.

On further investigation, I found out that She died
without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace her
next of kin Was fruitless. I therefore made further
investigation and discovered that Tobey Seidman did
not declare any kin or relations in her entire
official Documents, including her Bank Deposit
paperwork in my Bank. According to Laws of Republic
of China, at the expiration of 6 (six) years, the
money will revert to the ownership of the Chinese
Government if nobody applies to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a
foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Tobey
Seidman so that the fruits of This woman's labor will
not get into the hands of some corrupt Government
officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide
Immediately your full names and address so that the
attorney will prepare the necessary documents and
affidavits that will put you in place as the next of
kin. We shall employ the services of an attorney for
drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain
the necessary documents and letter of
probate/administration in your favor for the transfer.
A bank account in any part of the world that you will
provide will then facilitate the transfer of this
money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The
disbursement of the funds will be subject to
negotiation between us.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this
transaction will be done by the attorney and my
position as the Branch Manager guarantees the
successful execution of this transaction. If you are
interested, Please reply immediately Upon your
response, I shall then provide you with more details
and relevant documents that will help you understand
the transaction.Awaiting your urgent reply .
Thanks and regards.
T.K Letian.
