Dear Friend,
My name is Harry Parker, I am a senior banker in a bank here in the
United Kingdom.
I am contacting you for a business transfer, of a huge sum of money
from a deceased account. Though I know that a transaction of this
magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring
you that everything documents that will bring about the success of this
transaction would be provided, and all will be well at the end of the
day. I decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.
The deceased person who died Neal Walker died in an air crash along
with his wife on the 31st October 1999 in an Egyptian airline 990 with
other passengers on board was an American Oilconsultant/contractor with
the Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation. You can confirm his death from
the website below which was published by BBC WORLD NEWS.
WEBSITE.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/502503.stm
Since his death, none of his next-of-kin are alive to make claims for
this money as his heir, because they all died in the same accident
himself and his wife (May their soul rest in peace). We cannot release
the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the
next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines.
Upon this discovery, I now seek your permission to have you stand as a
next of kin to the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully
worked to make you the beneficiary to the funds #6,100 000 00 GBP (Six
million, one hundred thousand Great British pounds sterling) which
will be released in your favor as the next of kin. Because after six
years the money will be called back to the bank bond treasury as
unclaimed bills and the money shared amongst the directors of the bank.
so it is on this note I decided to seek for whom his name shall be used
as the next of kin/beneficiary to this funds rather than allow the bank
directors to share this money amongst themselves at the end of the
year.
It may interest you to know that we have secured from the probate an
order of mandamus to locate any of the deceased beneficiaries. Please
acknowledge receipt of this message in acceptance of our mutual
business endeavor by furnishing me with the following information if
you are interested.
1. Full names and address,
2. Telephone and fax Number.
3. your occupation.
For our personal contact and mutual trust in each other.
I shall be compensating you with 35% of the above amount on final
conclusion of this project for your assistance, the balance 65% shall
be for me , because I intend to retire after the conclusion of this
transaction . If this proposal is acceptable by you, please endeavor to
contact me immediately. Do not take undue advantage of the trust I have
bestowed in you, I await your urgent reply to this proposal.
Best Regards,
Mr.Harry Parker
