Subject: BUSINESS INQUIRY
Mr.Pablo Fabregas
Branch Manager,
BSCH, Madrid-Espa=F1a
Dear sir,
Compliments of the seasons.my name is Mr.Pablo Fabregas of Banco
Satander Central Hispano, I have urgent and very confidential business
proposition for you,An American contractor Mr. William Bowers, working
in Iraq with the military made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve
calendar months, valued at US$3,000,000.00 (Three Million Dollars) in
my branch.Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding
address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally
we discovered from SEI Incorporated USA that Mr. William Bowers died in
Baghdad as a result of a sniper attack. You can check this link to confirm =
the
incident at iraq:http://icasualties.org/oif/, Since we got this
information about his death and on further investigation, I found out that =
he died
without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was
fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. =
William
Bowers did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of
$3,000,000.00(Three Million Dollars)is still sitting in my Bank and the =
interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. =
No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to Spainish Law,at the
expiration of 7 (seven) years, the money will revert to the
ownership of the ( Spanish) Government if nobody applies to claim the
fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to
stand in as the next of kin to Mr. William Bowers and we make the claims.
You are to provide immediately your full names and address so that the
attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will
put you in place as the next of kin as I have all the documents backing the
claim. We shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and
notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and
letter of probate/administration in your favor for the transfer. A bank =
account
in any part of the world that you will provide will then facilitate the =
transfer of
this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be
paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 70% for me and 30%
for you. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction
will be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager
guarantees the successful execution of this transaction.If you are =
interested, please
reply immediately and upon receipt of your response, I shall then provide =
you
with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the
transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction =
would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require
your assistance to invest my share in your country.
I awaits your urgent reply to this email message.
Regards;
Mr.Pablo Fabregas
