MR. Wang K. Mok
Hang Seng Bank Ltd.
Sai Wan Ho Branch,
83, Des Voeux Road,
Hong Kong.
(wg_mok69@yahoo.com.hk)
Good Day,
Let me start by introducing myself.I am Mr. WANG K. MOK director of
operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd.I have an obscured business
suggestion for you. Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client Gen. Aadel Akgaal
Bastaan who was with the Iraqi forces and also businessman 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 notices was sent to him, even during the war which
began in 2003. Again after the war another notification was sent and still
no response came from him. We later find out that the General along
with his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a bomb
blast that hit their home.
After further investigation it was also discovered that Gen. Aadel
Akgaal Bastaan did not declare any next of kin in his official papers
including the paper work of 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 5 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 Gen. Aadel Akgaal Bastaan so that
you will be able to receive his funds.
MODALITIES:
I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we
shall come out successful. I have an attorney that will prepare the
necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to Gen. Aadel
Akgaal Bastaan, 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 of probate in your favour for the move of the funds to an
account that will be provided by you.There is no risk involved at all in
this matter, as we are going to 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 then
share in the ratio of 70% for me, 30% for you.
Should you be interested please send me your,
1,Full names,
2,private phone number,
3,current residential address,
And I will prefer you reach me on my private email address below:
(wg_mok69@yahoo.com.hk) and finally after that I shall provide you with
more details of this operation.

Kind Regards,
Mr. Wang K. Mok.
