Dave Chang
Raffles Palace
Singapore 048616
Hello,
My name is Dave Chang. I trained and work as an external auditor for
the
Overseas Union Bank (OUB).It took me time to get one like you having a
matching
name to achieve my purpose. Last month, on my routine audit control, I
discovered some accounts that had been dormant for the last twelve
years. All
the accounts belong to a single holder( Name withheld) his Accounts
totalling a
little above $12.7million United States Dollars plus interest. Banking
regulation/legislation in Singapore demands that I notify the fiscal
authorities
after a statutory time period of twelve years when dormant accounts of
this type
are called in by the monetary regulatory bodies. The above set of facts
underscores my reason of writing and making the following proposing. My
investigations of the said account reveals that the investor died in
1993 the
exact time the account were last operated. I can confirm with certainty
that the
said investor died interstate and no next?of?kin to his estate has been
found or
has come forward all these years. I am of the settled conviction that
using my
insider leverage, my working with you can secure the funds in the
account for us
instead of allowing it pass as unclaimed funds into the coffers of the
Government of Singapore. The transfer of these funds is more than
possible since
you bear the same SURNAME with the investor this is exactly why I crave
your
participation and co-operation. I have seized all relevant documents
(legal and
Banking) that will facilitate our putting you forward as the
claimant/beneficiary of the funds and ultimately transfer the funds to
any
account nominated by you. Of course you shall be handsomely rewarded
for your
part in this transaction as the people I am working with are prepared
to
allocate a 20% slice of the total funds for your efforts. I shall
however, leave
out the final details of this tra! nsaction till I receive an
affirmation of
your desire to participate. Be assured that my colleagues and I are on
top of
the situation all the time and there will be no risk whatsoever if you
agree to
come on board. Needless to say, UTMOST CONFIDENTIALITY is of vital
importance if
we are to successfully reap the immense benefits of this transaction.
To
maintain the level of security required to see this transaction to come
to a
successful conclusion, I have intentionally left out the final details.
To
affirm your willingness and cooperation to my proposal, please do so by
Fax
stating your FULL NAME, DATE OF BIRTH, TELEPHONE NUMBER, FAX NUMBER,
PRIVATE
EMAIL ADDRESS AND POSTAL ADDRESS. I do expect your prompt response.
Thank you,
D.Chang
