Subject: Hello
Dear friend,
I am making this contact with you based on trust and confidence I have for you, your Company and
God irrespective of the fact that we have not met before and because of the nature of the funds
project I am about to introduce to you,I want to remain positive having the faith, the will and
convincing myself that you will be interested and capable to do business with me.
The funds project that i wish to intimate you with is of mutual benefit and its success is
entirely based on mutual trust,cooperation and a high level of confidentiality as regard this
transaction.
My name is Mr. Bernard Davidson.The kind of the relationship and the confidential nature makes it
imperative for me to contact you directly by email. A German, Late Estate Magnate Mr.Andreas
Schranner, a majority stake holder in a Korean Real Estate Company ,until his death years ago in
25th July,2000 CONCORDE plane clash [Flight AF4590]
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm>), had a fixed deposit of US$48,000,000.00
(Fourty Eight Million United States Dollars) that has been in a Korean bank since 1998 which is
eight years now and since then no claim or withdrawal have been made on that deposit.
Fortunately, I have been the person in charge of this deposit from the day of deposit to date.
This great late Estate Magnate died without a written or oral 'WILL' attached to the account with
respect to his investment in the Korea Real Estate Company. It is because of the perceived
possibility of not being able to locate any of his next of kin. Rapidly, I took the precaution of
converting this funds worth US$48,000,000.00 Dollars to the [open secure progamme] and deposited
it with OPEN BENEFICARY-which allows anybody or person that has accurate information to the
deposit to be able to lay claim to it.
As a proposed partner i must confided in you immensely,therefore to use my position to move this
money outside Korea through a dedicated bank to your designated account with a consolidated
arrangement. It can be transferred to your custody if you are willing and assure me of your
ability to handle such a sum and honesty that I will not be cheated out when the money comes into
your account.
I am willing to let you keep 25% of this fund for your assistance. Indicate your willingness by
return email.
Sincerely yours,
Mr. Bernard Davidson.
