Top of the day,
I am Mr. Seng Chen Chu (Esq), a member of the Independent Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP) charged with the responsibility of finding bank accounts in Europe belonging to Holocaust Victims, which have remained dormant since World War II and also the legal counsel to a deceased Resident Holocaust Victim, who died intestate in the United Kingdom on the 21st of June 2002 before I could conclude his claims. I urge you read the following content and confirm your position to me afterwards. It may interest you to know that in July of 1997, the Swiss banker's association published a list of dormant accounts, including interest-bearing savings accounts, securities accounts, safety deposit boxes, custody accounts, and non-interest-bearing transaction accounts originally opened since the end of World War II, most belonged to holocaust victims. The continuing efforts of the ICEP have since resulted in the discovery of additional dormant accounts -54,000 in December 1999, amongst these accounts waiting submission is the dormant safety deposit box account of my late client whose last name tallies with yours and I have currently put a hold on it for more investigation before it released to the Claims Resolution Tribunal for liquidation, given me the much needed avenue to get in touch with you to see if you can stand in as the beneficiary to the estates of my deceased client and lay claims to these funds as the surviving next of kin to my deceased client before it is liquidated.
Being an executive at Independent Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP) and also legal counsel to a deceased Holocaust Victim in question, I am privy certain key information that will help us keep this sum to ourselves. The deceased did not have an easily identifiable next of Kin as I have made several enquiries to locate any of his relatives, this has proved unsuccessful, After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to track his last name over the Internet, to locate any member of his family, hence my contact with you. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating any of his relatives for over two years and convinced that no one is coming forth, and haven satisfied the mandatory legal requirement of Beneficiary/next of kin Notification, I now seek your reliable and trustworthy assistance, and with your consent and perfect understanding, present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this investment, interest inclusive can be release to you as the perceived Next of Kin, legally and otherwise.
Please provide your full name and address for the purpose of processing all the necessary claim documents (legal and administrative) that shall lead to your being named as the beneficiary and subsequent claim request will lead to the release of the sum to you through a means we will both decide upon, of which we will be capable of accessing the funds and transferring it to any other of our choice. I will let you know more about this only if I hear favourably from you.
Endeavour to send your reply to me through this email address ( office_sungchenchu@yahoo.com)
Yours faithfully,
Mr. Seng Chen Chu (Esq),
