Good Day,
Let me start by introducing myself.I am Mr. MING YANG director of
operations of the Hang Seng Bank Ltd.I have an obscured business
suggestion fo 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
iscovered 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 ackdrop,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
ecessary 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
provideme 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 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 finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this
operation.please reply me on my private email address
