Subject: Regarding Urgent
(CBGT) Citi BANK GROUP PLC,
111 Southend,croydon,
Surrey,London.cr9 1zy.
7/14/2006
Attn:Sir,
I have a proposal for you, this however is not
mandatory nor will I in any manner compel you to honour against your will.
I am Mr. Bill O'connor. , A senior Credit Officier
Citi Bank Group London. Here in this bank existed dormant account for
the past 2 yearswhich belong to one of our customers Hatem Kamil
Abdul Fatah who was the deputy governor of Baghdad in Iraq and also business
man .
Upon maturity several notices were sent to him, even
in the first quater of this year.Again another notification was
sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that the
Deputy Governor has been assasinated in Baghdad.
The websites below is a proof and verification of the
news about his death:

When I discovered that there had been no deposits nor
withdrawals from this account for this long period, I decided to carry
out a system investigation and discovered that none of the family
member nor relations of the late person is aware of this account.
This is the story in a nutshell. Now I want an account
overseas where
the fund will be transfer according to the due process
of our bank in order to avoid violation of any country and
international monetary law on fund transfer. Thereafter, I had planned to
destroy all related documents for this account. It is a careful network
and for the past eleven months I have worked out everything to ensure a
hitch-free operation.
The amount is not so much at the moment and plus all
the accumulated interest the balance in this account stands at $6.8
million. Now my questions are:
Can you handle this project?
Can I give you this trust?
What will be your commission? If you can sponsor this
transfer. Consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.
To commence this transaction, we require you to
immediately indicate your interest by a return email and enclose:
Your private contact telephone number.
Fax number.
Full name and address.
Your designated bank coordinates (your bank account
and swift code) and any form of identification like your international
passport to enable us to file letter of claim to the appropriate
departments for necessary approvals before the transfer can be made.
Finally, it is our humble prayer that the information
as contained herein be accorded the necessary attention, urgency as
well as the secrecy it deserves.
I expect your urgent response if you can handle this
project. Write to me at this direct contact email address:
oconnolar@yahoo.com
please do not take advantage of it to betray me as we
are fully aware of the abuses in the Internet.
I look forward to receiving your prompt response.
Respectfully yours,
Mr.Bill O'connor
