Dear Friend,
My name is Dr.Derek Hammond, I am the credit manager of HSBC BANK PLC
here in the United Kingdom. I am contacting you of 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 has been taken care off, and all will be well at the end of the day.Idecided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.
PROPOSITION;
I am the account officer of a foreigner named Jean Gandesbery and her
husband Robert Gandesbery who died in an air crash along with his wife
on the January 31 in an Alaska airline Flight 261 with other passengers
on board. You can confirm this from the website below which was
published by
CNN.WEBSITE.http://www.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska airlines.list/
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 out by me for the funds (£800,000.00, EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS STERLING.) to be released in your favor as the beneficiary's next of kin.
Because after four years the money will be called back to the bank
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.A Beneficiary name.In order for me to prepare the document for
transfer of the funds in your name.
2. Direct Telephone and fax numbers.For our personal contact and mutual
trust in each other.
I shall be compensating you with three hundred thousand pounds(£300,000,HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS STERLING
on final conclusion of this project for your assistance, while the
balance [£500,000]HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS STERLING shall be for me for investment purposes.
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 response
Regards,
Dr.Derek Hammond
