Attention:
RE: TRANSFER OF [£36,759,000.00 MILLION POUNDS TO YOUR ACCOUNT].
My name is Mr.Nicole Lampert, and I work in the International Operation
Department in a Bank here in London. I feel quite safe dealing with you in
this important business. Though, this medium (Internet) has been greatly
abused; I choose to reach you through it because it still remains the
fastest medium of communication. However, this correspondence is unofficial
and private, and it should be treated as such.
At first I will like to assure you that this transaction is 100% risk and
trouble free to both parties. We want to transfer out money from our bank
here in London. The fund for transfer is of clean origin.
The owner of this account is a foreigner, a program leader. Until his death,
he was the Prime Minister of Lebanon, Mr. Rafik Bahaa Edine Hariri has a
huge investment here in the United Kingdom and all over the world, as a
matter of fact he has the sum of (Thirty Six Million Sveen Hundred and Fifty
Nine Thousand Pounds Sterlings Only) in his account here in London which he
deposited as a family valuables. His family does not know about this
deposit.
I was on a routine inspection that I discovered a dormant domiciliary
account with a bal of (Thiry Six Million Seven Hundred and Fifty Nine
Thousand Pounds Sterlings Only) on further discreet investigation, I also
discovered that the account holder has passed away (dead) leaving no
beneficiary to the account. The bank will approve this money to any
foreigner because the former operator of the a/c is a foreigner. I am
certainly sure that nobody will come again for the claim of this money. A
foreigner can only claim this money with legal claims to the account holder;
therefore I need your cooperation in this transaction. I will provide all
necessary information needed in order to claim this money, hoping in God
that you will never let me down now and in the future.
Rafik Bahaa Edine Hariri (November 1, 1944 - February 14,05), married to
Nazek Audi Hariri, was a Lebanese self- made millionaire and business
tycoon, and was five times Prime Minister of Lebanon (1992-1998 and00-2004)
before his last resignation from office on October,04. The late Mr. Rafik
Bahaa Edine Hariri died on the 14th day of February, 2005 when explosives
equivalent to around 300 kg of C4 were detonated as his motorcade drove past
the Saint George Hotel in the Lebanese capital, for more information please
log on to (http://www.hariri.info).
I want to transfer this money into a safe foreign account abroad but I don’t
know any foreigner whom I can trust, I know that this message will come to
you as a surprise, as we don’t know each other before, but be sure that it
is real and genuine business.
I am contacting you as a foreigner without knowing your business integrity
believing in God that you will never let me down in the future once the fund
goes into your account.
Let me hear from you urgently.
Yours Faithfully,
Mr.Nicole Lampert.
